I apply it like any other nail product and a coat dries in a few minutes. I typically do 2-3 coats. I love this stuff and am getting ready to order more. I finally have nails!

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.

I think so... it not oily or thick but more like a gel so for my dry skin I have to use something else after it.

You can use NON acetone nail polish remover if u use acetone it will mess the nail up (it melts the nail if that makes sense)

Yes it does. When I bought this item I don't think it was even labeled as a gel polish dryer.. not sure why they changed it. I use it on regular nail polish every time I paint and I love it.

No, it will dry just like a clear coat of nail polish and comes off easily with nail polish remover. Hope this helps.

The only things I can think of is that 1) gel applied to thick, 2) you didn't use the "alcohol" gel cleanser after setting them. I have not had that problem at all. I've been nervous about immediately wiping my "just set nails" with the gel cleanser but it appears to do the job.

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.

I have seen it applied to nails in different ways, so it depends on how it is applied. I add to my powder so unless i soak my nails in acetone it is. If you apply with polish then it will come off when you take off your polish.

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.

I would call it a thick cream...but yes, I used water for application. It went on really smooth, dried and did not crack. We loved it.

No, it doesn't. In fact using the necessary Acetone to remove the gel polish is very hard on your nails. So, I definitely recommend getting & using the nail shields, which provides a barrier & you don't have to use Acetone. They still don't strengthen your nails, but they don't cause any further damage.

I havent tried the Kiss gel polish, but I did use the ibd gel polish twice and it peeled off completely at the second day. I thought that maybe the gel quality was not so good so I decided to try a different brand. I bought the Progel Supernail starter kit and it works perfectly. The kit includes an additional step in which you apply a Superbonder on your nails as part of the preparation to ensure adequate fixation of the gel to your natural nail. I also learned that no matter what brand you use you always have to make sure the gel polish doesnt reach your skin or your cuticles because it may also cause it to peel. I hope you find this helpful. I havent tried the Kiss gel polish, but I did use the ibd gel polish twice and it peeled off completely at the second day.

I don't recommend it with gel polish, as it could ripple. But its a option incase you just want to set regular polished nails or toes, for faster dry times.

It dries rough like heavy paper or dried baking soda and a bit rougher than toothpaste. Clear fingernail polish fixes that and helps it stick too.

Yes this just dries regular nail polish. I have this in my salon and I love it!!

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.
