Is this product for UV light or just a regular base coat?

Hi Jessica. No UV light is required. It can be used as a base coat and top coat. Its just personal preference

It does not require a UV light but is used as a base coat and in between each coat. Here is a quick tutoroal http://www.hairsprayandhighheels.net/2013/08/diy-gel-nails/

I used it for just regular base coat. It works great this way for me, hope this helps.

No light needed Jessica. It is used in this order- as basecoat, then 1coat polish 1 coat gel 1 coat polish then a top coat of your choice. Works good but remember to take all the wsy to tip of nail. Good luck...

I would say medium to light. It's good as makeup base/ sunblock but I wouldn't use it by itself because it's very light

There is no UV light emitted by the product. UV light starts at 400nm and below, whereas the product puts out light from the 590nm to 880nm range, well above the UV spectrum. Goggles are included with the product and MUST be used at all times, since the light is very bright.

UV or LED lamp will cure most gel polishes. LED will get the job done faster but will cost you more initially. I got my UV lamp from here on Amazon when it was about 50% off and it works great for me. I love Gelish!

It is definitely LED. UV lamps are very hard for consumers to get at retail, ebay is probably your best source. It can be used with pretty much all of the other LED polishes out there (e.g. Sensationail, Sally Hansen).

Use ph prep first (or alcohol), then base coat, two coats of color then top with 1-2 coats of the top coat. Use an LED light at 30 secs or a powerful UV lamp for 2-5 mins each coat.

This is a base coat. I don't understand what foil or adhesive has to do with this. Neither is needed. You apply nail polish on top as usual. Hope this works out well for you.

Not sure. I wasnt too concerned because my regular glasses have both UVA and UVB protection.

I am not sure what "UV" polish is exactly, but it works with any gel nail polish that requires UV light for curing (drying)

This is the base coat and top coat liquid gel shellac. I don't understand what your asking about. Sorry

Ramona, if you are trying to dry Gel polish, This one would not be for you, They do offer a Thermal spa with fan and UV. for drying regular polish, This is for black light only :)

No it's not a uv light. It had the appearance of a uv light because of the colored plastic cover only.

I am a nail technician who specializes in artificial nails and have been using this product for about 10 years. 2 min is the recommended cure time for this product. First off I have a couple of questions regarding use for troubleshooting purposes. What type of nail are you applying to? This product is for artificial nails (ie. acrylics and permanent uv gel nails) only as a acetone proof finish coating and not for use as a coating for natural nails or for use for gel manicure products. There are other products out there that are for natural nail use that are better for sealing nail polish and are made to be compatible with traditional nail polish that stay for almost 3 weeks! What type of uv lamp and bulb wattage are you using? And more important how old are the bulbs. Best uv bulb wattage is the 4- 9 watt uv lamps. Also note this isn't a product that is compatable with " at home uv lamps or LED lamps. Hope to help you. Sounds from your post you are applying to something that the product isn't made for. Cracking comes from improper use and normally comes from placing it on top of nail polish and or as a nail strengthener which it isn't made for and doesn't have the flexibility that natural nails have. Other products on the market for application as a nail polish sealer have a little more flexibility and won't crack.

Uv light. But there are a lot of brands of nail UV light. And I'm sure you notice a huge price difference. The cheaper ones will not cure as quickly or well. I have bought a couple and learned lessons the hard way.

you have to have a uv lamp, apply base coat put under light 30 seconds, every coat after that including top coat 3 minutes under lamp separately, finish with alcohol to cure it

The trick to some of the CND Shellac polishes are to put on the coats extremely thin...the thinner coats should not bubble in the UV light.
