Frequently Asked Questions
CND™ SHELLAC™ removes in minutes with no filing or buffing. When it is time
to remove CND™ SHELLAC™ Gel Polish, acetone-based products travel through
the breathable coating until they reach the quick-release polymers in the CND™
SHELLAC™ Base Coat. The coating then releases and lifts from the nail in a tidy,
efficient, and safe way with no nail damage or need for filing or buffing.
Wear time may vary based on client nail type and lifestyle. To extend wear for up to 21 days of wear, apply CND™ SHELLAC™ Epic Smoothing Base prior to color. Removal can also take slightly longer after 14 days, as adhesion will increase the longer CND™ SHELLAC™ is worn.
We understand that nails don’t breathe, but the CND™ SHELLAC™ formula does. Tiny tunnels in the gel polish coating are formed during the curing process allowing moisture and oxygen to travel throughout the coating to the natural nail plate. This guarantees that conditioners like SOLAROIL™ can penetrate the coating. When it’s time for removal acetone-based products travel through the tunnels making BUTTERFLY REMOVAL™ possible.
