Sally Hansen has launched an at-home gel manicure product line that doesn’t require the use of a light. The polish is called Miracle Gel, and it’s a part-lacquer, part-gel manicure system.
How does it work? The Miracle Gel manicure contains the brand’s patented Tube Technology – to allow a higher level of active ingredients to release into the lacquer film.
The photoinitiator in the Top Coat formula reticulates with the oligomer contained in the Color Coat, thus curing the formula without the need of an LED/UV light. As the manicure cures over time, it becomes more durable due to the increased hardness of the film. So LED/UV lamp curing is not necessary, only natural light.
The shiny look will last for up to two weeks, the brand says. And, it comes off easily with both acetone-based and acetone-free nail polish remover - no soaking, wrapping, scraping, or filing necessary.
