Notpolish is a nail brand that states its products are made in the USA. It is best known for two things that work together: 2-in-1 powders, which can be used as dip powder or as acrylic, and Gel Duos, a gel polish and a regular lacquer in the same shade. Every OG and M colour we stock as a Gel Duo also comes as a powder under the same code. M1 Nail & Beauty Supply carries 582 Notpolish products, with pickup in Markham, Ontario and shipping across Canada.

How the codes match
A Notpolish code names the colour, not the product type. OG102 Nude Panther is the powder and Gel Duo OG102 Nude Panther is the gel and lacquer in the same shade, so a salon can offer one colour as dip, acrylic, gel or regular polish. OG is the brand's original colour range; M is a separate range, M01 to M128.
Common questions
Is Notpolish powder a dip powder or an acrylic powder?
Both. Notpolish sells its OG and M powders as 2-in-1: use them with the Dip-It liquids for a dip manicure, or with EMA monomer and a brush for acrylic.
Do I need a lamp for Notpolish?
Not for the powders: dip and acrylic both air-set. The gel in a Gel Duo, SOLO Gel, builder gel and the gel top coats all need a UV/LED lamp.
Is Notpolish gel HEMA-free?
It depends on the line. SOLO Gel is labelled HEMA-free and TPO-free, and Hard Builder Gel is labelled HEMA-free. The gel in the Gel Duos lists hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) among its ingredients, so it is not HEMA-free.
Which sizes do the powders come in?
Every colour comes in a 2 oz jar. The most-used salon shades also come in 22 oz, and a few in 4 oz.
