"I don't know that oil is the issue to be honest cause how in the world is keeping oil on every hour on the hour gonna penetrate through the gel polish?" They don't have to use it every hour, just 2-3 times a day if they massage it in. Test it out have a couple do only one hand for 2 weeks, take before and after pix ;o) To add some science to the Oil info for now.... Oil and the natural nail- Oils can't readily penetrate the nail cell as easily as water. It must travel out around the cell walls while water can slip through them. Oils increase the amount of moisture in the nail plate by slowing down the passage of water. They block and temporarily seal the moisture channels. Oils also slow down the water evaporation from the nail. The result is less brittle, more flexible nail plates. The oil needs a small or "carrier" molecule to penetrate; one example is Jojoba which is found in Solar Oil.
Oil and the enhancement- Permeability is the ease in which a liquid moves through a porous substance. Water and certain oils can be absorbed into the nail plate due to permeability. Wraps, liquid and powder enhancements, and polish may also absorb certain oils which will increase their durability by plasticizing them. UV gels are less permeable, so the benefits are not as dramatic without regular and prolonged use of oils. Some oils are made of large and bulky molecules that can not easily penetrate. Enhancements with the proper mix ratio are adhered to the nails in different types of chemical bond and the oil travels from the enhancement to the natural nail through the bond as if the enhancement and the nail are one. Solar Oil can actually help prevent lifting as it will help plasticize the enhancement helping make it more flexible. When I asked Doug about an oil alternative to the Jojoba in Solar Oil he mentioned Squalene. So check if your preferred oil contains either of those. If not please, please use Solar Oil with your Shellac!! Holly L. Schippers CND Education Ambassador [email protected] c Visit cnd.com for the latest in products, education and nail fashion!

Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2010 21:38:33 -0500 From: [email protected] I don't know that oil is the issue to be honest cause how in the world is keeping oil on every hour on the hour gonna penetrate through the gel polish? I think just as some people can not wear acrylics so can some people not wear gel soak offs think about it the components are some what the same as acrylic or regular gel...I really do not think that the client should have to apply oil to their nails every hour on the hour just to have a satisfied look of no white spots. I don't know how to fix it but I sure know that some of my clients that were wearing the shellac french have stopped in a very little time too! :( Anna Creations by Anna Z-James www.annazjames.com -----Original Message----- From: Becky <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, Nov 29, 2010 6:05 pm Subject: Re: NailTech:: was Comparing Shellac and Gelish now soaking vs. filing... I am seeing the white spots too, like I mentioned previously... and I can't follow these people around with a bottle of oil... they don't listen.
