NOTE: Use caution when curing gel liquids in your lamp. Applying gel too thick can cause heat spikes, thereby causing a burning sensation on your nails. Also, wipe away any gel from your skin before curing in a lamp to avoid burning your skin. Additionally, make sure you cure your gel products according to the directions on your bottles each time. * This is super important! Over-curing or under-curing can cause issues and lead to gel allergies.

*Reward Points will not apply on the sets of 3.  You can use reward points on individual bottles (separate listing).

ALL LIQUIDS WILL BE SHIPPED GROUND DUE TO POSTAL REGULATIONS. 

Yes, you CAN use gel liquids as an alternative way to "dip" your nails using dip powder!  Following these simple instructions, and using a curing lamp, your nails can be "double dipp'd" without the fear of a reaction some experience with the traditional dip liquid system.

Please note that using Gel Liquids vs. Dip Liquids may alter the colors in your Dip Powders.  All colors are swatched using Dip Liquids. Additionally, heavily pigmented or extremely dark colors may not cure properly. This is due to the UV/LED rays not being able to penetrate through the color. If you are unsure which colors those may be, contact us.

Gel liquids need to be kept in a cool, dark place. Exposure to light will harden the gel.

Exposure to extreme temperatures may affect the quality of gel polish/liquids and can cause gel liquids to seize up at the mouth of the bottle.  All bottles are checked before shipping.  If you receive a bottle that appears this way, you can use a sharp object to carefully pull the hardened gel out of the mouth, making the rest of the bottle usable.

Using Double Dipp'd Gel liquids for finishing powders ("chroming")

1.  Apply a thin coat of Gel Base Coat and cure.

2. Apply a thin coat of Gel Top.

3. Flash cure (approx. 10-15 seconds) Time depends on your lamp and requires trial and error

4.  Apply your powder with an applicator or finger and rub in until you have achieved the desired coverage

5.  Brush off any excess powder, then cure

6.  Apply No Wipe Top Coat (cap the edge) and cure (you can do 2 coats if you like, but only cap the edge of the final coat.

*NOTE: You MUST use a Gel Base before Gel Top as the Top needs a sticky base to adhere correctly to your nails. Not using a Gel Base before Gel Top will cause your Top coat to peel.

Removal Instructions:

Although we do not recommend soaking off (Acetone is not good for your skin), should you decide to go this route,  you will need the following:

• Bowl large enough for your hand
• 100% Acetone
• Ziplock type baggie quart or gallon size
• Paper Towel
• Hot water
• Nail File
• Coconut oil is recommended but not necessary

1. With your nail file, file off the top coat of your gel to break the seal and allow the acetone to soak off your mani.
2. Heat 1-2 cups of water in your bowl to a temperature that your hand will tolerate.
3. Add the paper towel to your baggie and pour in approx. 1/4 cup of the Acetone.  (If you have coconut oil, you can add about 5 drops to the baggie to help moisten your hand once it is soaked in the acetone).
4. Put your hand in the baggie and put the baggie into the bowl of hot water.
5. Seal the baggie around your hand and rub each of your nails on the acetone soaked paper towel until the gel comes off. (This process should take no more than 5-10 minutes per hand).

ALTERNATIVELY, use our Magic Remover to remove your gel products quickly, easily and gently.  (See separate listing).

 Returns/Refunds cannot be honored for any dip liquids, gel liquids or powders.
