I was just in my old neighborhood in Florida...so I visited the local asian supply house, which honestly has some great prices! They sell a gallon of 100% acetone for 7.00 ... I can not get that around here! I have to pay at LEAST double for that product..and 100% is just that. Well anyway.. I bought some sanding bands also...while at the register I saw gelish and shellac behind the counter..they had 5 new colors of shellac..at the exact same price I pay here..(well actually a nickel more...was 15. Instead of 14.95)... Same packaging everything... So I bought 4 of them. I asked what was popular down there and she said Gelish was the most popular. I think there was 1 other brand in the case...but I wasn't interested so I don't remember. My point is that I did not see another brand that the locals would use....like there is for acrylic, topcoat, etc.. I am always curious to see those brands... Pati
