It contains 3 functions in one composition - base cover, modeling and finish coating. These gels are mostly used by beginner nailartists because they save money, there is no need to buy a lot of different materials. But the disadvantage is that the gel does not have a very thick texture and it can flow in the modelling phase. More often one phase gels are used to strengthen the nail plate.
Two step gel
This gel has function of modeling and finish coating. The primer needs to be used as a basis
Three step gel
The three-phase system has three separate gels, each of which performs another function. The base gel serves to grip the gel and nail plate, alignment of the nail. The second phase is the modelling , giving a volume and a beautiful nail shape. It has a thicker structure and does not flow. These gels can be transparent or camouflage (have a natural color). The camouflage gel is used predominantly for French manicure. The third gel is a finishing gel, it creates a protective layer and gives a shiny manicure.
