Gel nails are made through a three-step process which consists of brushing a base coat nail polish and top coat over your natural nails.
Are you talking about full cover tips or the ones you glue on to the tip of your fingers when doing extensions. Pour the liquid acrylic into the dampen dish. Gel nails can be applied right over the nail bed or applied to the nail tip to extend it.
I use nail polish over enhancements for a few of my ladies. Yesterday I received the following email from a colleague here at Allure. Yes regular gel polish can be applied over gel base coat.
Both gel and acrylic nails are beautiful safe functional alternatives to a regular manicure. Yes you can use a gel polish on top of another gel polish. When I go for a fill they use the electric file and file the color off.
Most want Shellac for the shine and durability but some simply cant afford it and lets face it it lasts until maintenance appointments anyway. Provides a perfect canvas for applying nail color. They create a hard protective layer over your natural nails.
With each coat the nail is placed under a UV light for somewhere between 30 seconds and two minutes to cure dry. Gel nails wont give you as much support as acrylics would but they are still way sturdier than your regular nail polish. While doing this press the file onto the surface of the polish and begin to move the file in one direction.
