FAQs
How long does the 2AM London Hema Free Gel Polish last?
When applied correctly with a base and top coat and cured under an LED lamp, this gel polish typically lasts 2-3 weeks without chipping or peeling.
What does 'Hema Free' mean?
'Hema Free' means the gel polish does not contain Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA), an ingredient that can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. This makes it a safer option for those with sensitivities.
Do I need a special lamp to cure this gel polish?
Yes, this gel polish is designed to be cured under an LED lamp for 60 seconds. A traditional UV lamp may not be sufficient for proper curing.
Can I mix this gel polish with other brands?
While it may be possible, for optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to use this gel polish with a compatible base coat and top coat from the same brand or a trusted gel system.
Why is pigment variation mentioned?
The pigment intensity or shade appearance can sometimes vary slightly depending on the specific color batch or lighting conditions. Applying two coats usually ensures a consistent and rich color payoff.
How do I remove the gel polish?
Gel polish is typically removed using acetone. You'll need to soak cotton pads in acetone, place them on the nails, wrap with foil, and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before gently pushing off the softened gel.
Troubleshooting
Gel polish not curing properly
Ensure you are using an LED lamp and that it is functioning correctly. Check that each coat is cured for the full 60 seconds. Apply thinner coats if you are experiencing issues with the center of the polish not curing.
Gel polish chipping or peeling prematurely
Make sure the nail surface was properly prepped (cleaned, buffed, and free of oils). Ensure the base coat and top coat were applied and cured correctly. Avoid applying the gel too close to the cuticle or skin.
Uneven color application
Apply the gel polish in thin, even coats. Avoid overloading the brush. If the color appears streaky, apply a second thin coat after the first has been cured.
