This nail dryer works drying normal nail polish (not gel polish)?

I only used on gel polish, I've never tried regular polish with this dryer. However I use regular polish for color and gel bottom and topcoat.

I suppose it would work faster than just air-drying, there is a small fan and the lights get a little warm. In my opinion, you would need to use it for 15-20 min, like the dryers at the nail salon but there is a setting on the dryer, "timer-OFF," that is probably just for that purpose!

No ma'am. This is for gel polish. It cures under a UV lamp. There is no air or bleow drying.

It does not make regular nail polish dry faster. I found that the one time that I did try it with regular nail polish. My nails felt sticky for awhile after I was done, so I have not tried it again.

Regular nail polish dries in just a few minutes but the clear gel coat takes longer. About 20 minutes and then it's sort of sticky for a few more minutes but I do like the nail dryer.

You just use nail polish remover. Nothing special. No you do not need a lamp to dry them. It is applied just like regular nail polish with the exception of there is no need for a base coat.

Yes! I have used my dryer with both gelish and shellac polishes with equally good results! Works like charm! :-)

No, I have just let it dry normally to give a firm base coat. I DID NOT like it since it peeled my nails off layer after layer. I threw the product away. Maybe I should of used a light. IDK.

No, this is not a dryer. This only works with polishes that are formulated to cure with U.V. or L.E.D. light.

No. Use a small fan to dry regular polish. OR you can apply a coat of gel base and dry with the UV lamp. THEN apply a coat (or 2) of regular polish. Once the regular Polish is COMPLETELY dry (again - AIR dry regular polish), you can apply a gel top coat and dry with the UV lamp. I personally haven't tried this method, but I've read that this can be done when someone wants to use regular polish to extend the life of their mani. But make sure the coat of regular polish is completely dry! I hope this was helpful. :)

It doesn't always work, and you need a lot of patience to get it right. With a regular manicure, your drying time at the salon is about 20 minutes, but it actually takes 24 hours for the solvents in regular polish to fully dry. If the solvents aren't fully dry, then putting on a gel topcoat is going to seal in wet polish. Or the topcoat could just slip right off.

Yes, it has a fan setting to dry regular nail polish. I use regular base coat, regular polish, let them dry good for a couple hours, then apply gel top coat. Cure for 90 seconds then wipe off with cleanser or alcohol. They look and last great and you don't have to buy expensive gel polish, just the top coat.

My favorite gel brand is CND but I find they all perform well with this roomy nail dryer where I can cure both hands at the same time. I've seen the same one in professional salons so knew it would be quality when I ordered it.

Yes, when using the fan. But not necessary for regular polish. This unit is meant to be used for setting gel polish or acrylic nail coating. Hope this helps.

I use it with the gel polish, is the gel nails like an extension to your nail?

Absolutely not! This is not regular polish, it is gel. You MUST use either an LED lamp or UV lamp that is specifically for gel polish. You must also use gel color (if you want color on the nails as well) and not just regular nail polish. Also, there is a special residue remover to use once you are done that gets rid of the sticky stuff left on your nails after all the steps are complete. This product won't air dry at all.

Well my wife uses it but as far I noticed it's just the up light that does the work on the dry up and she has tried.regular nail polish and different gel as well.

No, it is not for regular nail polish. There are no fans to dry, only UV lights to cure gel nails.
