7 Essential Products for Stunning Nail Finishes

September 24, 20243 min read

At Star Nails, we know that achieving beautiful, long-lasting nails isn’t just about technique – it’s also about using the best products available. When you visit us, you're not only pampered by a talented team of professionals, but you can also rest assured that only the highest-quality products are used in our services. Whether you're getting a classic manicure, an intricate nail art design, or a full set of acrylics, here are seven must-have products that we use to ensure stunning nail finishes every time.

1. High-Quality Base Coat

A good base coat is essential for protecting the nail and creating a smooth canvas for your polish. At Star Nails, we use professional-grade base coats that not only prevent staining but also help extend the life of your manicure by adhering the polish to your nails more effectively. This crucial step ensures that your color stays vibrant and chip-free for days on end.

2. Long-Wear Gel Polish

Gel polish is a game-changer for those seeking durability and shine. We offer a wide range of high-quality gel polish colors that cure under UV light, ensuring a flawless, chip-resistant finish that can last up to two weeks. Gel polish is ideal for anyone who wants their nails to maintain a freshly-manicured look long after leaving the salon.

3. Professional-Grade Nail Polish Remover

Using a harsh or low-quality nail polish remover can damage your nails and cuticles. At Star Nails, we opt for acetone-free removers or professional acetone with nourishing ingredients that safely and gently remove polish without weakening the nails. This means healthier, stronger nails even when switching up colors frequently.

4. Durable Acrylic Powder and Monomer

For clients looking for strong, beautiful nail extensions, we use top-tier acrylic powders and monomers. Our products create a strong, durable bond that results in natural-looking acrylic nails that can withstand daily wear and tear. The acrylic sets beautifully, providing a sturdy surface that can be easily shaped and buffed for a flawless finish.

5. Nail Art Tools and Materials

At Star Nails Athens, we specialize in bespoke nail art that ranges from subtle accents to bold, glittery designs. The secret to our stunning nail art is our use of premium tools and materials, including fine-tipped brushes, rhinestones, glitter powders, and high-quality stamping plates. These products allow us to create intricate, long-lasting designs that won’t fade or wear down.

6. Top Coat for Lasting Shine

A quality top coat is key to sealing in your manicure and giving it that glossy, professional finish. Our salon uses fast-drying, high-shine top coats that lock in color and protect your nails from chipping, ensuring that your manicure stays vibrant and beautiful for longer.

7. Cuticle Oil

Healthy cuticles are crucial for the overall appearance and longevity of your nails. We incorporate nourishing cuticle oils into our services, keeping your cuticles moisturized and healthy. These oils help to prevent cracking, dryness, and peeling, all while promoting strong, healthy nail growth.


At Star Nails Athens, we believe that using high-quality, professional products elevates the entire nail experience. Whether you’re coming in for a simple manicure or a detailed nail art session, you can trust that we are committed to giving you a beautiful, long-lasting finish that will keep your nails looking their best for days to come.
