Good Points
Everything! Calgel does not damage your nails, in fact it helps them grow and become stronger.
Bad Points
None! You will never want to go back to normal nail varnish.
General Comments
I have been having Calgel Nails for about two and a half years now. Before I had Calgel, my nails, although long, would split and crack at the slightest knock. Now it is very rare indeed that I break a nail, in fact I don't think that I have broken one for over 9 months.
Calgel is painted on like a nail varnish and there are a range of colours to choose from, including French Manicure for the natural look.
Calgel does not chip and I have even cleaned using bleach and it hasn't ever marked them. I usually have infills every 4 weeks, which is literally just the top bit of my nail painted because of the gap that appears with them growing and I usually have the gel taken off and have the painted again after another 4 weeks.
If you have nails that are weak or are brittle or even if you have a job where you are typing or cleaning which chips your nail varnish, this is a fantastic option.
The best thing is getting ready to out for a night and not having to worry about making your nails look presentable, they are a massive time saver.
