What is semi-permanent nail polish?

Semi-permanent nail polish is a hybrid formula that combines the ease of traditional nail polish with the long-lasting durability of gel. Unlike regular nail polish, which can chip within days, semi-permanent nail polish is cured under a UV or LED lamp, ensuring a wear time of up to three weeks.
