“My all-time favourite gel polish brand is Gellux by Salon System. I love their range of colours, how easy they are to paint with and the longevity of the products.

My go-to manicure looks on myself is a coat of Bare Natural Builder followed by a coat of Warm Pink Builder and finished with the Clear Base/Top Coat. The Clear Base/Top is a personal fave as it gives a glass-like finish to every colour and doesn’t dull for the time period that it’s on”.

“My favourite product I’ve ever purchased from Salon’s Direct has to be the Lotus “Danielle” Trolley. I recently moved to Manchester and have been working between two places, and to say it’s been a lifesaver is probably a massive understatement!

The storage in this trolley is brilliant; it holds the majority of my polishes just in the top section alone. I was surprised I was able to fit my dust extractor in there as it’s really big, but the lower compartment was perfect for that. It wheels so smoothly, it’s super sturdy, and it has just been an all-rounder dream purchase”!

“I have so many favourite products that I order from salons direct for my business that it’s hard to choose the best. However, I cannot live without my Glossify Naturabuild and gel colours, not forgetting the Glossy Top.

You also just can’t beat the Glitterbels Cover Acrylic Range. Nudes are always in season! And, of course, the essentials like a HUGE bottle of Lotus acetone, buffing blocks and cuticle nippers.”

An essential for me at my nail desk is, for sure, the Glossify Milky Pink acrylic powder. I use this so often when I need to build a core colour base for my clients who wear acrylic nails. It’s easy to work with and has such a smooth, satisfying finish. It’s definitely a favourite of mine”.
