Please see some of the frequently asked questions and our answers that CJP often gets asked. You will also find a brief explanation about some of our products.

Monomer, What's the difference and can I use either

CJP Monomer HEMA Free

CJP Monomer (HEMA free) is suitable for technicians/clients that suffer from allergies, we always recommend you patch test first before completing a full set on any allergy sufferers.

CJP Monomer (Ultra Adhesive) is a durable monomer and does exactly what it says on the tin!

CJP The ONE

The One is both HEMA FREE and ULTRA ADHESIVE, we have also speeded it up a little, without compromising on the workability - The one stays mouldable whilst you are working the bead, then like magic as soon as you stop it cures a lot faster! Making it ideal for techs of all abilities.

CJP The One Point 2

This bad boy is our holy grail monomer, it is both HEMA FREE and ULTRA ADHESIVE, we have slowed it down a little, without compromising on the workability - The One point 2 stays mouldable whilst you are working the bead, then like magic as soon as you stop it cures a lot faster! Making it ideal for techs of all abilities, OUR BEST SELLER.

Can I use any CJP monomer with any CJP powder?

Yes, you can!

Do the core powders need capping in clear?

No, they do not.

Do I need to cap the coloured powders?

Any colour that needs capping has a baseball (cap) on the pot! We also recommend you cap powders that contain glitters to protect that sparkle! We have a range of over 200 shades.

Sample Kits

Can I get an Acrylic sample kit?

Yes, we have a "Try me Kit" or our larger version the "Mini Core Kit".

Do I use a bonder with this System?

Yes, apart from with The ONE and The One Point 2 that’s personal preference. We have two to choose from our ultra bond (acid free) and our ultra acid bond - (please note we cannot ship acid bonder internationally). Ultra Acid bond is ideal for problem lifters.

Why are there three different dehydrators, do I need to use all three?

No - choose one! - Personal Preference of application but many techs like to use two, the spray or scrub on and then a layer of brush on just before product application.

• Brush On - Brush it on
• Prep Spray - Spray it on
• Fresh Prep - Scrub it in

What's the difference between CJP and other major brands?

It was created with love by nail technicians, doing what you do!

AND OUR MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTION

Why is CJP so good?

We strive to bring you the best quality products that are on the market whilst being determined to offer excellent customer service and focus on bringing you new products and the latest trends.

What is the easiest way to change colour of clients nails at the next appointment?

If using a coloured acrylic, we recommended laying down a clear base first to make it easier to change colours at future apps and prevent any staining of the natural nail.

C Jel P

Not only do we have our acrylic system we have our very own range of vibrant, hard wearing gel polishes! We recommend the use of our 48w lamp to cure. All colours are also HEMA Free (top and base contain traces (safe compliant levels). ALL ABOUT THE BASE, RUBBER IT AND TIME TO SHINE IS HEMA FREE. Our gel is manufactured here in the U.K and we are always open to colour suggestions as we are enjoying building up the range and would love your input. (We have a huge essay on C Jel P application if wanted).

Now for the hard part - Choose a shade!

BOB - Our amazing range of Brush on builder gel, ideal for infilling and extending. Bob will do the same job as acrylic, use to build and extend. A coat of Rubber IT under bob works perfectly as it adds extra flex, Prep as usual, apply 1/2 coats of Rubber IT and build with bob in a thin, thick, thin application, When you want to remove BOB remove all excess product and soak or file off the base layer.
