Eco Calcium Gel

Star Nail

Move clients away from traditional brush-on nail strengtheners and on to guaranteed nail growth. Star Nail International’s Eco Calcium Gel is a one-step system for clients who want to support the growth of their own natural nails. The gel encapsulates the natural nails, protecting them while promoting healthy regeneration of new cells. Added calcium helps to enhance the existing calcium keratin bonds in the natural nails. The gel coat provides a permanent shield against the elements and harsh chemicals that can weaken and damage the natural nail plate. This layer also seals in the oils essential to nail health, preventing cracking, peeling, and breaking. Eco Calcium Gel adheres so well that no primer is needed and by extending the gel over the free edge, you virtually eliminate any lifting issues, says the company.
