Dear Maryellen Brown,It takes about 3 minutes for each step. Please kindly note it's nomal that gel Polish is a bit gummy and you need to wipe your nails down with rubbing alcohol after you're finished. Best regards,MelissaMelodySusie Direct

I've been using it to cure resin that is up to 1/2inch thick and that only takes like 20 minutes. I'm not sure how long it would take for nails, but probably not more than a few minutes.

I learned about garlic for nails on the internet. Buy a bottle of clear nail polish and remove a bit of it. Mince finely a large clove of garlic and add to the polish. Allow to stand for a week. Then put the polish on your nails once a week for 4 or 5 weeks. It can be removed after 24 hours with nail polish remover or left on for the entire week. Then you only need to put it on your nails once every 3 months. Nothing is going to work for everyone as our nails are different but this "garlic treatment" is very inexpensive and it works for me.

I use a sticky base coat... You can find it at almost any beauty supply store. Put a nice coat on the nail, let dry about 15 to 20 seconds. Lay a piece of the foil on the nail and press down. Slowly peel the plastic off the nail, to finish add a top coat top the nail. It may take a few practice nails to get the hang of it but it's fun.

Honestly it all depends what you do when you have them on..mine lasted 2 days the first time and the second time i was more carefully so it lasted about a week. If you follow the instructions the nails feel very thin so i applied another coat just to be safe...hopefully that answered your question

No. You must have a curing lamp or the nail polish will never dry (at least that is what I gave been told).

Dry time is just dry to the touch. Definitely wait at least 12, preferably 24 hours as instructed.

Yes, When applied, after 5 minutes it is completely dry. I notice that if I make my manicure and use Seche Vite before bedtime, and allow a couple of hours not doing any manual work (dishes, typing in the computer, etc) my manicure last 2x or 3x times longer to start chipping.

Keep nail dry wearing gloves and using hair dryer and applying under the nail as close to fungus area as possible

I'd say about 30 min. I never really timed it. It seemed to dry very quickly. I used it mainly with bottle caps so I really didn't have a need to touch them.

Wait till fully dry before going on whatever was sprayed. A light spray was about an hour, a heavy spray about 12 hours.

You do not need a lamp to dry the polish. Just let each coat (2) dry to a dull finish and then apply the Vinylux topcoat to seal and shine. It will take about 5 minutes for the topcoat to dry. The polish dries very quickly between coats. You remove the polish with regular nail polish remover. It removes easily. I hope this helps you.

Yes probably after soaking for about 30-60 mins, this is the same hard gel they use at salons. They usually use some kind of sanding tool like the nail dremel types to get it off faster. I use a sander when I am ready to fill my nails. When I'm sick of having nails and want to go natural I bite or peel mine off because I don't have patience haha! Then my nails are really weak and bendy so I put gel polish on so they are a little stronger and let them grow out! Hope this helps :)

Here's what I have learned through trial and sometimes error. These times are usually dependent on whatever brand polish you are using. Some will say on the box or bottle. Others I kind of just figured out on my own. Usually to be safe I do 30 seconds for base coats on brands that do not give instruction. I go 1 min on color if it is gel. I will go 3-4 on non gel colors. Top coat I go 1 min as well. I will say that I am a. Mom and tend to be paranoid when it comes to freshly done nails, so I give it a "just in case" amount of time. Good luck!

I put the polish on let it dry, then put a little dab on where I want to put the jewel on and press down. I am very armature when it comes to nails and nail art, so I am sure there is a better way to do this. They sometimes stay on great and other times fall off fast.

not only must you have the base coat and the top coat but you also must have the uv light to dry it. I tried to dry without the light, will never dry. basic steps: use alcohol/soap to clean oils off of nails, apply base coat, apply color, uv light for 1.5 minutes, apply top coat, uv light for 1.5 minutes, then use alcohol to swab the nails or else it will look matte colored and be a bit gooey, done.

Yes, just polish your nails and use the product when your nails are partially dry.

Depends upon severity of fungal nail deterioration and how diligent you are with application. Could take 6-9 months or longer.
