Are You Using the Right Base for Your Clients?

Ensuring your clients have the perfect base is essential for achieving flawless nails. At Glossify, we recognise that each client has unique needs and preferences, which is why we've developed a range of products to cater to different nail types and desired outcomes.

To put it simply, good nails make good nails: the better your client's natural nails are, the better the enhancements will sit on them.

For clients blessed with naturally strong and healthy nails, a flexible product with a natural look like gel polish is ideal. Our Glossify Gel Polish range offers a variety of shades and finishes to enhance their natural beauty without compromising durability.

However, for clients seeking stronger, longer nails, we have a range of Glossify products designed to enhance their natural nails. From strengthening base coats to lengthening treatments, our products promote nail health while providing excellent results.
