Additional Products
In addition to fixed assets, in the lineup are additional products.
- La base - the protective and leveling basis for nails. A special place among all varnishes takes a protective and leveling base for nails. This must-have.

disadvantages
There are several negative sides.
- Long drying time. Have to be patient. It may be that for someone the drying time of lacquer with a length of 10-20 minutes will not seem so long, but many complain that it is rather difficult to bear and a lot of nerves go before the lacquer dries completely.
- The difficulty of application. It would seem that the brush is wide and the tool gives a dense coating. But many people note the difficulty in uniform coating. Stripes may appear when layered on top of each other.
- The difficulty in the selection of its color. Some say that colors that look amazing on some hands may not fit the other. Some shades are so complex that it is possible to decide whether it suits you or not, only with the help of a test on yourself.
