Amazing finish... can you help what is this product?

[WaxGirl]

I would much appreciate your help, of all the treatments I offer nail painting is the one that I'm trying to improve as my painting never seems to be as smooth and shiny as other salons and I don't think it lasts as well, so 2 weeks ago I went for pedicure in another salon and they did a fantastic job on the painting - really glossy and is still in perfect condition - after doing the top coat I noticed the beautician put on another procuct... but don't know what it is!!!

It's in a bottle like the size and shape of a bulb, It was clear but maybe slightly yellowy and had brush like regular nail varnish brush - she seemed to dab on a bit then rub it in with the brush, I know I shoud have asked but didnt want to look thick....has anyone any idea what could this be?

Your help and any other tips you have would be so appreciated...I am determined to crack the perfect paint job!:lol:

From what you've described the bottle and contents sounds like solar oil to me. She would have used this as a cuticle treatment and as an aid to drying the polish.

Just a thought...
i was skipping through the latest scratch mag and I remembered this thread. Jessica have released a high shine top coat that comes in Light Bulb shaped bottles. I believe it was called Jessica Mega Watt Style.

yip sounds like solar oil which Creative Nail Design do, I use there air dry polish or super shiney then solar oil about 1 min after very gently with the brush loaded with oil.

Although products are a key part of longevity you should also look at your application. Geeg has a tutorial and there is a thread about perfect polishing if you do a search.
