Hi All,
This is my first post on SG so please be gentle with me .... I have just seen an offer on Groupon which really set alarm bells ringing. I'm not sure if I can post the link to the deal but basically the brand name is "14 Day Manicure" (I have never heard of them before). They are offering a gel polish starter kit including 36w UV lamp for £99.
Not only does the packaging look very similar to shellac/OPI, it is being offered for sale to any member of the public.
As a trained nail tech I am concerned that such a product is being sold this way. Am I overreacting or does anyone else think this is cause for concern or think the packaging is modelled a bit too closely on an existing brand...?
I also work for a company as a product developer/new produc buyer & I'm puzzled as to how they can offer a high quality product at this price and still make a profit!?
If the link is allowed please let me know and I will post it - just didn't want to break any rules on my first post! x
