Hello, The directions on this product indicate to drop it directly on the surface of the nail and under the nail. Please be sure to use this on both surfaces for the best results.

For best results you can apply under nail and or push cuticle back and apply so that new nail can be treated as it comes out. Hope this helps. By the way i tried lots of products, pills and home remedies out there and had poor results. This product is superior, works outstanding. Just sure you apply daily until new nail comes out.....

Yes it does. I usually pour it into the cap 3/4 full and while watching my favorite hour long show dip each nail into the cap for approx 4-5 mins long. Then I scrape off the polish. May have dip in for another 1-2 mins but comes off very easy and better than the foil they make you put on each finger at the nail salon. I usually. Do this before going to salon to reapply gel. Saves time. Great product!

This is a thick, self leveling gel that can be used to build a nail tip or a hard nail like shell over a thin or split natural nail. It is not a polish or top coat. It is totally clear and requires a polish in some color to match your nails. So, it can be used with any of your nail colors, but will completely seal, cover and prevent your natural nail from getting any benefits offered by a strengthener or conditioner.

Hi Shannon, Yes you can use this light with Shellac. Shellac and Gel are similar products. They both look beautiful like polish but last for several weeks without chipping or smudging. Your nails will look freshly painted all the time. Shellac is a brand name from CND. I do not know why it cost more, maybe research and development... Gel lasts a little longer but both are great products. Both need to be soaked off to remove. Good luck....Happy Holidays...Alex

YES! The ultra voliet light works well to dry gel nails. I turn it on and its heat immediately. Dries my nail very quickly. I love this product

I've never tried it, but don't know why you would want to. If you use it on the bare nail everything layered on top will stay. I could never keep nail polish on my fingernails until I found it. Now my polish lasts all week.

Apply to nails like polish. You can use it over polish as well. Strenghtens nails

Hi Smoody, I can think of two reasons your nails are still sticky. Most likely, you skipped the part where you wipe off the remaining residue with the included gel cleanser. You can also use regular rubbing alcohol to wipe off the sticky stuff. That is how the polish is designed, otherwise the layer underneath should be hard and dry after curing.If not, it's possible that you put one of the layers on too thick so it didnt cure properly. Next time, try warming up the bottles in some warm water prior to application. This will thin out the polish for a smoother application.Hope that helps!

No. You MUST soak this gel product off. That said, this brand soaks off quickly. Put a cotton ball with temover on a piece of foil and wrap each nail. Follow package directions.

You can do a fill and only fill in your nail where necessary. Its very easy to buff your nail down and then apply your gel on top. This gel is easy to work with and doesn't causing any pain or discomfort :)

Yes! It's clear! I actually use it over normal non-gel nail color and then put it under the lamp and I get about 1.5 weeks of wear out of the polish and it soaks off in about 3 minutes. That's WAY faster than removing gel nail color PLUS gel topcoat, and less damaging to the nail itself. (I've even gotten a solid 2 weeks without chipping...same as normal gel through and through....so it's just a thought!)

Yes ... place over the final dry coat... but a bit senseless since the gel coat is taken off with the electric sander! I would sacrifice the gel fora good manicure and watch nails begin to look fabulous within 4-6 wks! It will be worth the wait!

You can buy a starter kit that comes with the lamp and everything you need to do your nails. Once you buy a lamp, you can use any gel brand.

Yes you can!! The only thing I've found is you need to put a very thin coat on then cure, then another thin coat and cute. Or it tends to get bubbles. Also do what ever you can to NOT let it touch the sides of your nails. (Skin/cuticles)

I can't say that I'm 100% positive, but I believe you have to use with a gel polish. The gel process involves "curing" with a UV light between coats, so I believe you would need to use a gel color and not a regular polish. I have done so by accident before and the polish started "lifting" soon after when I used a regular polish. When I've used all gel polishes, my manicure and pedicure have lasted about 2 weeks.

coming from an old school tech all gel nails under a 36 watt take more then 2 time under and if you go to thick with your gel you can count on 3 so if your going more then 2 which can be the norm your going to thick and my recommendation is to tone it down and put less on your app brush 1x is enough no more then 2 thats it...thats from an old school maamaajaamaa
