FAQs
Can I use this polish without a lamp?
No, this is a professional-grade gel polish that requires UV or LED light energy to harden and cure properly.
How many coats should I apply?
For best results, apply two thin coats, curing between each application to ensure even coverage and durability.
Is this product vegan or cruelty-free?
Please refer to the specific CI numbers and ingredient list on the back of your bottle to verify compatibility with your personal preferences.
Does the color on the lid match the polish?
Yes, the cap is designed to show the actual color of the polish inside for easier organization.
How do I remove the gel polish?
Use a professional gel removal method, which involves gently buffing the top coat and soaking the nails in acetone wraps until the gel softens.
Troubleshooting
Polish is peeling shortly after application.
Ensure the nail plate is properly buffed and dehydrated with an alcohol wipe before applying the base coat.
Polish remains sticky after curing.
This is a standard inhibition layer. Use a lint-free wipe with a gel cleanser to remove the tackiness after the final top coat cure.
Bubbles appearing in the finish.
Avoid shaking the bottle vigorously; roll it gently between your palms instead. Ensure layers are applied as thinly as possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your gel manicure, store your Claw Culture bottles in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight or the light emitted by your curing lamp, as exposure can cause the polish to harden inside the bottle. Ensure the neck of the bottle is cleaned with a lint-free wipe soaked in acetone or cleanser after every use to prevent the cap from sticking. This polish is compatible with most standard base and top coats, though using the Claw Culture brand line is recommended for optimal bond and shine.
