CATRICE Vernis à ongles Gel Affair 054 Vanilla Fade, 10,5 ml

CATRICE Gel Affair Nail Polish 054 Vanilla Fade 10,5 ml: gel without the lamp

Shade 054 Vanilla Fade is a creamy white leaning towards vanilla, the soft white that flatters hands rather than hardening them, unlike a pure white which shows up every ridge on the nail immediately.

This polish reproduces a gel result — deep shine, a domed surface — with no UV lamp and no base or top coat. It holds for up to seven days and covers fully on the first coat, which shortens the whole process considerably.

Key points

• Shade 054 Vanilla Fade, creamy vanilla white
• High-shine gel finish, no UV lamp needed
• Wear of up to 7 days
• No base or top coat required
• Full coverage from the first coat, vegan, 10,5 ml

Two thin coats hold far better than one thick one: an overloaded coat dries at the surface while staying soft underneath, and that is where pillow marks appear by morning.
