Can I use Nailtiques on my new gel manicure for extra protection

Hi, yes off course it's wonderful to protect the nail polish to last longer. I swear by it, when I use other clear top coats nothing works like Nailtiques.

i havnt used it myself, but i apply the 3rd layer of the other nail thickener which has slightly white colour and nails look good (so i have 1st protective layer of any thickener u have, then quimica as a second, and the 3rd is one more thickener which has a bit of colour). I think u can do it just make sure u have a layer between quimica and colourful nail polish. P.s. My nails are getting really strong. Never had such nails before even being 15 y.o. and its not even 2 weeks yet.

Yes, I used Shellac base and top coat with gelish gel polish on my natural nails. Works really good.

I can't say that I'm 100% positive, but I believe you have to use with a gel polish. The gel process involves "curing" with a UV light between coats, so I believe you would need to use a gel color and not a regular polish. I have done so by accident before and the polish started "lifting" soon after when I used a regular polish. When I've used all gel polishes, my manicure and pedicure have lasted about 2 weeks.

This product is NOT for use over gel polish. It is for use over acrylic and gel. Which is different than gel polish! You must use a gel polish top coat for gel polish!

Yes, if you are using regular nail polish with gel top coat, it still works great! Only recommendation is to let the regular nail polish dry COMPLETELY before adding the gel top coat. If you don't, the regular nail polish will begin to wrinkle.

As a nail tech for over 6 years, I would say you want to cure your thumbs first and then each hand. If not, the gel might not cure correctly and end up tacky around the edges.

Tips only, though they are available with the nude overlay as well. Just apply a clear overcoat over the nail once the tips are applied. I follow up with Seche Vite topcoat after the clear coat of regular nail polish. If you don't the Seche Vite peels off rather quickly, not so once applied over polish. No gel light needed.

Make sure you cover the complete nail area with the primer. AND more important, make sure the coats are light ESPECIALLY near any skin surrounding the actual nail.

I don't recommend it with gel polish, as it could ripple. But its a option incase you just want to set regular polished nails or toes, for faster dry times.

Yes, I have Gel nails and it works great. Today my manicurist asked me to bring a bottle in for him to check out.

I don't have an answer to that because it never occurred to use over the gel, but the product is for natural nails and if you are using gel nails, I believe is wasting the products properties.

There is a youtube video by thepolishedmommy, about using Gelish Hard Gel and dual forms to extend nail length, in other words, to make your own gel nails. I tried it but found that the nails are not as strong as acrylic or gel, so I stopped doing it. Now I just brush the hard gel over my own long nails and cure under an LED lamp. It makes my nails very hard to break! Good luck!
