A powerful and elegant enhancement product for salons and at-home nail artists
Claresa Poligel is a modern hybrid nail enhancement that blends the strength of acrylic with the flexibility and clarity of gel. It was created for nail stylists who demand precision and durability — but it is also perfectly suitable for women who love doing their nails at home.
What Exactly Is Poligel?
Poligel is a unique material that combines the best qualities of two systems:
- the strength associated with acrylic
- the moldability and lightness of traditional gels.
Unlike acrylics, Poligel doesn’t harden on its own — it remains workable until cured under a UV or LED lamp. This gives nail stylists and home users complete control over shaping the nail. It has no strong chemical smell, requires no mixing, and is significantly easier to sculpt than acrylic.
Why Choose Claresa Polygel?
- Perfect Consistency
The texture is thick, creamy, and stable. It does not run into cuticles, even if you take your time shaping. This makes application easier and more precise, especially for beginners. - Natural Shades
The subtle colours create a beautifully natural look. You can leave it as is for elegant nude nails, use it as a base for French manicure, or build on top of it with gel polish and nail art. - Exceptional Strength
Nails made with Claresa’s Poligel are strong yet flexible. They resist cracks, breaks, and lifting, offering long-lasting wear — a benefit appreciated by professional nail salons. - Lightweight and Comfortable
Despite its durability, Poligel feels lighter on the nails compared to acrylics. Clients and home users often describe it as more natural and comfortable to wear. - Suitable for All Techniques: You can use Claresa Poligel for:
- natural nail overlays,
- nail extensions using dual forms,
- sculpting nails on paper forms,
- strengthening weak nails,
- creating custom nail shapes such as almond, square, or coffin,
- delicate and detailed nail designs.
How to Use Claresa Poligel: Step-by-Step Guide
- Prepare the Nail Plate
Proper preparation ensures maximum adhesion.-
- Push back and remove cuticles.
- Lightly buff the natural nail to remove shine.
- Clean and degrease the nail thoroughly.
- Apply a base coat for enhanced durability (recommended for most techniques), then cure.
-
- Apply the Poligel
-
- Squeeze a small amount from the tube using a spatula.
- Place the bead of Polygel onto the nail or into a dual form.
- Dip your brush into slip solution (or an appropriate cleanser) to prevent sticking.
- Begin shaping the Polygel: smooth it toward the free edge, define the sides, and sculpt the apex.
-
- Cure Under UV/LED Lamp
Cure the Polygel until fully hardened. The exact time depends on the lamp’s power but is typically around 60–120 seconds. - Shape and Refine
After curing, refine the nail using a file. Shape the edges, perfect the surface, and remove any imperfections. The product is easy to file thanks to its balanced hardness.
- Finish With Top Coat or Polish
You may leave the Latte shade natural for an elegant, subtle look or add gel polish, nail art, or decorations. Finish with a top coat and cure again for a high-gloss, durable finish.

Tips for Best Results (For Salons and Home Users)
- Use small amounts at a time. Poligel is highly efficient; overuse may make shaping harder.
- Keep your brush lightly moistened with slip solution. This prevents sticking and allows smoother shaping.
- Build a proper apex. Especially for longer nails — it ensures strength and helps prevent breakage.
- Avoid over-filing. The product files easily, so gentle pressure is enough.
- Ensure the nail plate is completely dry and clean. Moisture or oil significantly reduce adhesion.
