Properly stored, Gelluv gel polish typically lasts for 1-2 years. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Do I need a special lamp to cure this gel polish?
Yes, gel polish requires curing under a UV or LED lamp. Standard nail polish dryers will not work.

Can I use this gel polish with any brand of base and top coat?
It is recommended to use Gelluv's compatible base and top coats for best results. While other brands may work, compatibility is not guaranteed and can affect longevity.
How do I remove Gelluv soak-off gel polish?
Soak a cotton pad with gel remover, place it on the nail, and wrap with foil. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then gently push off the softened gel with an orange stick or cuticle pusher.

Troubleshooting
Polish is streaky or uneven
Apply thinner coats and ensure each coat is fully cured before applying the next. Ensure the polish is well-mixed before application.
Polish is not curing properly
Verify that the UV/LED lamp is functioning correctly and that the curing time is sufficient for the specific lamp type. Ensure coats are thin.
Polish is chipping or peeling prematurely
Ensure proper nail preparation, including dehydrating the nail plate. Confirm that a gel base coat and top coat are used and properly cured. Check for contamination on the nail or uncured polish residue.
Removal is difficult or damaging
Ensure you are using a dedicated gel polish remover and following the correct soak-off procedure. Avoid prying or scraping the gel, which can damage the natural nail.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This gel polish requires curing under a UV or LED lamp. Ensure nails are properly prepped, including cleaning, shaping, and applying a gel base coat. Apply thin, even coats of the Gelluv polish, curing each layer according to the lamp manufacturer's instructions (typically 30-60 seconds for LED, 2 minutes for UV). Finish with a gel top coat and cure again.
Compatibility: For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to use Gelluv gel polish with Gelluv's compatible base and top coats. While it may work with other brands, mixing systems can sometimes lead to adhesion or durability issues.
Care: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat to preserve the formula. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use. Clean any excess product from the bottle neck immediately after use.
