Missing your beloved gel manicure, but not ready to be back in the close quarters of a nail salon? Thank Maybelline for dropping their new Fast Gel Fast Drying Gel Nail Polish right on time.
Available in over 15 shades, these nail polishes go on shiny and smooth and dry within minutes of applying the Fast Gel top coat. As if that wasn’t good enough, these nail polishes are only $2.50! No joke!
I recently got the chance to try Maybelline’s Fast Drying Gel Nail Polishes and I can attest they’re a really good substitute for a salon gel manicure. I didn’t modify my regular routine at all and this polish easily held up while I did all my normal chores (cooking, dishes, laundry, etc). In fact, I didn’t see a chip until day 4 and that was most likely because I was scratching at something on a pan with no gloves.
If you’re taking a break from your weekly salon manicures until the pandemic is a bit more under control, you really can’t beat this gel nail polish. Not only is it super affordable, but it actually works!
