FAQs
Does this polish require a base and top coat?
Yes, for the best results and longevity, a dedicated gel base coat and gel top coat are recommended.
How long does it take to cure?
Cure time depends on your lamp wattage; generally 30-60 seconds for LED and 2 minutes for UV.
Can I use this with a regular nail polish top coat?
No, you must use a gel-specific top coat to ensure it cures properly and protects the color layer.
Is this polish safe for sensitive skin?
All ingredients are listed on the bottle; please review the ingredients list if you have known contact allergies.
How do I remove the polish?
Use an acetone-based remover, ideally by soaking the nails or using foil wraps, rather than filing the gel off completely.
Troubleshooting
Polish is peeling off after a few days
Ensure the nail plate was properly prepped and dehydrated; avoid getting polish on the cuticle or skin.
Polish remains sticky after curing
This is often the inhibition layer; use a nail cleanser or high-percentage isopropyl alcohol to wipe the surface after the final cure.
Product thickened in the bottle
Ensure the bottle is stored away from heat and UV light sources; do not add thinners unless specified by the manufacturer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure your nail plate is clean, dry, and free of oils before application. Use a lint-free wipe with a prep solution to dehydrate the nail surface. Store your bottles in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight or the proximity of your curing lamp to prevent the gel from hardening inside the bottle. If the brush begins to stiffen, ensure it is wiped clean of excess product before returning it to the bottle. Keep the bottle tightly capped when not in use to maintain the consistency of the formula.
