Geliefektit

Geliefektit, often translated as "gel effects" or "gel finishes," refer to a category of nail products designed to create a specific texture, appearance, or visual illusion on the nail surface. These products are typically applied over a cured gel polish or acrylic base and are then cured under a UV or LED lamp to set the effect. The range of geliefektit is broad, encompassing various aesthetic outcomes.

One common type of geliefektit creates a matte finish, removing the typical shine of gel polish for a softer, velvety look. Another popular category includes magnetic or "cat-eye" gels. These contain fine metallic particles that, when a magnet is held over the wet gel, create a shimmering, directional line reminiscent of a cat's eye gemstone. Chrome or mirror effect powders and gels are also prevalent. These are rubbed onto a tacky gel surface to achieve a highly reflective, metallic sheen, such as a mirror-like silver or a vibrant, iridescent hue.

Other geliefektit can simulate textures like sugar, velvet, or even create holographic and shimmering effects. The application technique usually involves applying the geliefektit, manipulating it with a tool like a magnet or brush if necessary, and then curing it to lock the effect in place. These products are used by both professional nail technicians and individuals at home to enhance manicures and achieve unique, eye-catching nail designs.
