FAQs
How many coats are recommended for this shade?
We recommend two thin coats for full opacity and an even color finish.
Is this a quick-drying polish?
While it sets relatively quickly, we recommend using a dedicated quick-dry top coat if you are short on time.
Does this polish require a UV lamp?
No, this is a standard lacquer formula and dries through air exposure without the need for a lamp.
How long does the polish typically last?
With proper preparation and a top coat, you can expect 5 to 7 days of wear depending on activity levels.
Can I use this with gel top coats?
It is not recommended to use gel top coats over standard lacquer, as they may peel off.
Troubleshooting
Polish appearing streaky on the first coat
Apply thinner layers and ensure the brush is fully loaded, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next.
Nail plate staining after removal
Always use a protective base coat before applying the color to create a barrier between the pigment and your natural nail.
Polish thickening in the bottle
Use a professional-grade nail polish thinner; avoid using acetone, which can ruin the formula.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, start with clean, oil-free nails; wiping them with a bit of nail polish remover before application improves adhesion. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the viscosity of the polish. If the formula thickens over time, store the bottle upside down for a few minutes before use, or add a few drops of approved nail polish thinner. Always ensure the cap is tightened securely after every use to prevent evaporation and drying out.
