Am I right to assume that I can use this system with my acrylic nails? or just gel nails?

I'm simply a consumer, not an expert, but no where on the directions does it mention acrylic nails so I assume it's for gel nails only

I have no idea, I guess it does work but they're different kinda of led lamps for nails, you should google your question.

As a nail tech for over 6 years, I would say you want to cure your thumbs first and then each hand. If not, the gel might not cure correctly and end up tacky around the edges.

The gel doesn't seem to damage but with strong nails I don't know that its worth the time and effort. I love it because I had severely damaged nails from years of acrylics. My nails are doing amazingly well but it is a 2 hr. routine every couple of weeks.

Yes you can use it on acrylic nails. You follow the same steps. Make sure you rough up the nail just as you would natural nails. Just make sure you don't apply it very thick. Apply 2 thin coats or 3 if necessary.

Yes you can use any brand gel polish. I bought a sally Hansen brand Polish from target and it worked just fine. Also I would buy a different nail dehydrator/primer because the one included in this kit sucks! The polish always lifts after 4 days!

Nothing, Harmony renamed product. I think there was confusion structure, hard and acrylic all having similar products. Do note that hard gel has to be filed off. If ll you want is smooth nails use 'structure' or 'foundation' gel.

I would say no, this cannot be used as a top coat as well. They do seem very different. the top coat uses uv to cure and lock down the color coat. the base is used to attach the color coat to your nail. I would not recommend not getting all three types if you want to do gel nails.

If you are talking about removing regular polish from artificial gel nails, they should work since they're not acetone-based. If you are talking about removing gel polish, probably not. They're oil-based, which is the best way I can describe them. Their best use is to gently remove regular nail polish. It smells good and is less annoying to those around you.

I was a buyer of the Nail Buffer. I see socalgal gave you the correct link for the seller and it worked out for you.

You should be able to. I did an acrylic nail and design with using the fingers. Use a long nail with it and not a short nail.

I have used OPI gel color polish and Gelish also with this system. Both worked fine.

Yes. If you file down the old acrylic on top of the nail down till it is thin, then you can do a "fill" by putting a very thin layer of new acrylic on top of entire nail. Make sure you get the two packs in one kit.

I don't have an answer to that because it never occurred to use over the gel, but the product is for natural nails and if you are using gel nails, I believe is wasting the products properties.

I got this for my daughter for Christmas. Yes I think you would be able to use any gel polish with it.

Yes it's made for acrylic and gel nails. You wouldn't need this for your regular nails, too rough.

I use it over my gel. Because of it, I can wait longer in between getting my nails done. My nails appear freshly done.
