What is the difference between gel polish and regular nail polish?

Application: Gel polish requires a UV or LED lamp to cure and harden, while regular nail polish dries through evaporation.

Drying time: Gel polish dries much faster than regular nail polish, as it is cured under a UV or LED lamp. Regular nail polish may take several minutes to dry or longer depending on the number of coats applied.

Durability: Gel polish is more durable than regular nail polish and can last up to two weeks or longer without chipping or fading, whereas regular nail polish typically lasts for a few days to a week.

Removal: Gel polish requires acetone to remove, while regular nail polish can be removed with regular nail polish remover.

Finish: Gel polish often has a shiny and glossy finish, while regular nail polish can come in a variety of finishes including matte, glossy, metallic, and shimmer.
