How do you apply it? To barenails? As a topcoat? Everyday?

I applied it to bare nails once a day for 7 days then removed and started over. My nails were in bad shape because of acrylics that I had removed. After about 6 weeks my nails were healthier and started to grow. You can also apply as a top coat.

apply on barenails and/or a topcoat everyday until nails grow and then every other day or less.

apply on bare nails, as a base coat, if you want you can apply color, and use it as top coat as well. use it for seven days daily and at the end of the week, remove with nail polish remover, and start fresh. after the first week, you can use with less frequency. it works, it really does.

I typically just apply it when I polish my nails. I use it as a base and a top coat. There may be other methods, but this works very well for me. My nails are notably stronger. My nail stylist even said so the other day.

You should always blend nail tips with natural nail before applying product unless you're using no well tips. Step 1 glue nail to nail bed 2. Blend tips with natural nail 3. Wipe clean with lint free wipes 4. Apply bonder 4. Apply base let cute 5. Apply hard gel to desired consistency (1-2 coats cure each coat) 6. Wipe and shape nail 7. Apply color 8. Apply gel top coat cure

I usually do my nails about every 2 weeks....thanks to this product. I highly recommend you buy the top coat as well. With both products, your nails look and act like gel nails. I just use any kind of good nail polish. I indulged in a nail dryer. That way it only takes a little bit to do my nails. Hope I answered your question.

yes dear . HOW TO USE FOILS? 1) Prepare your nail bed by shaping, pushing cuticles back and removing all oils (do this using professional nail prep eg scrub fresh or nail polish remover. 2) Apply a thin, even coat of nail foil adhesive to each finger. Wait for it to turn from white to clear and is just tacky to the touch. This can take up to 10 minutes! (Necessary) 3) Press foil shiny side up, onto the nail bed and rub over using your finger, or for a better more precise application, use a rubber hoof stick. (for best results cut a piece of foil of the length just big enough for the nail, its easier to control and apply flat) 4) Remove the foil and the foil pattern should be stuch to your nail. If a bit is missing due to lack of foil adhesive, just reapply the adhesive to the part not taken and repeat. 5) Once completely dry, apply a coat of sealer/top coat to protect the foil. If the adhesive is not completely dry before applying the top coat, the foil will rub off. Warm Tips: 1, Just remember if it doesn't work first time, Try again! It's all about the timing of applying the foil to the adhesive at the right time. 2, Foils can take a while to get right, but once you do get the hang of it, you can create lots amazing Nail DESIGNS! PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO LIGHTING EFFECT AND COMPUTER COLOR, THE ACTUAL COLORS MAY BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FROM THE PICTURE

I don't . I put this over itself again & again. It should go under any other polish of course. It's helped grow my nails for the first time in 30+ yrs! When I quit butting them , they were to thin to grow & split, peeled, yet with reg. Use of this & the Gold bottle one ( longer in 3-5 days I thnk?) , I have normal nails. This is the only product that's worked. Apply every couple days( w/out nail polish) over itself. I never remover it 1st. I add to what's chipped or worn off. Good luck!! Jenni

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 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.

the same way you do with any gel polish, scratch the surface with a file, wrap the nail in foil paper with cotton ball soaked in remover. You do however, have to leave it wrapped longer with this gel polish than any other I have used.

I use it as a base coat, but it's not made to be a top coat; just a polish applied daily

Julie, I have not tried it over polish just bare acrylic nails. I have seen it used over polish but I know nothing of how it lasted or if it peeled off like other top coats similar to this one,

I have used the top coat over Jamberry nails and it seems to work. I don't know why it wouldn't work over regular polish. I don't know for sure, but I don't think that the base coat would work very well.

When I first got it I did use as directed only on half your nail for first week. After that I appy to entire nail as a base coat and use nail polish as usual. I don't think it would be good as a top coat. I use seche vite Always as top coat.

I use it alone (looks like clear nail polish) and under nail polish. Both work for me!! Still loving the product!!

I go through stages of using it every day, then, I get lazy & use it every other day. Duri is the best...better than Nailtques. My nails are the strongest ever!! My gfs have complimented them. I haven't used polish except when I get my manicure. Duri does build up after a week if used every day. Sometimes, I can peel it off.
