CND™, recognized globally as a leader in professional nail innovation, recently announced the launch of its revolutionary CND™ SHELLAC™ system. This state-of-the-art system features the impressive CND™ Visible Light Lamp, created to transform the way nail professionals and clients approach nail care.

A New Era in Nail Curing Technology

The new CND™ Visible Light Lamp stands out for its unique capacity to cure nails without the use of traditional UV or LED light, presenting a safer alternative for both nail technicians and clients. This next-generation lamp ensures optimal performance by offering precise curing that guarantees longevity and resilience of the applied nail treatments. Lynn Cote, CND™ Global Education Manager, emphasizes the importance of performance and innovation, stating that the relaunch of SHELLAC™ is a response to the needs expressed by both salon professionals and clients.

Enhanced Features and Benefits

This innovative lamp utilizes VISIBLE LIGHT TECHNOLOGY™, which effectively cures CND products, maintaining essential qualities such as durability and wearability. Compared to traditional curing methods, the new system also improves the curing process for highly opaque coatings, enhancing the overall quality of nail applications. Key advantages of the CND™ SHELLAC™ system include:

• - 21-day wear without fading.
• - No damage to natural nails when used with SHELLAC Epic Smoothing Base™.
• - The introduction of a red light feature enhances the salon experience akin to a spa treatment.

The lamp is designed specifically for salon usage, boasting a cordless, rechargeable feature and an ergonomic design that suits a variety of salon environments. It also includes a removable baseplate ideal for pedicure services. The CND™ SHELLAC™ system not only enhances the nail care process but also elevates the overall salon experience for technicians and their clients.

A Colorful Comeback

In conjunction with the launch, CND™ has reimagined its SHELLAC™ franchise with nearly 140 high-performance shades, including six fresh retro-inspired colors and a return of 10 beloved classic shades. This diversity in color options ensures that both nail professionals have the freedom to express their creativity while clients enjoy a variety of choices.
