And in terms of removal, yes, it will be easier to take off and less damaging to your nails because it's just regular nail polish on top of the natural nail, and you won't need to soak them in pure acetone which is extremely drying. But really, Elle wrote, there's no guarantee that this technique will work. Are Your Feet Ready? Otherwise, the regular color will dissolve in the acetone and will stain the cuticles and surrounding skin.
In summary, now you know why it is not beneficial to combine the use of regular polish products with gel polish one because you will generally spend more time to work on your nails and trying to remove the gel polish later.
One way that you can use regular colors on gel polish is by doing nail arts on gel polish. Gel color polish does have a limited variety of different colors. So if you find a regular color that you like to use to create designs, do so. Keep in mind that these designs should contain a little amount of regular color or you will run into a problem of trying to remove the stain it creates on your nails and skin when you remove gel polish with acetone later.
What is the best way to remove gel polish? The quickest and cleanest way to remove gel polish is with the use of finger cots. They securely hold the acetone in a piece of cotton on top of the gel nails. This way, your hands and fingers are more functional and you can move around instead of sitting in front of an acetone bowl or can not use your fingers if they are wrapped in aluminum foil.

The problem of gel polish does not last long on the nails can be traced back to one of three main areas in gel polish application: the gel nail equipment might be weak or faulty, the gel polish is not completely cured and how a person prepares the nail surface and improper application.
One of the easiest ways to make your regular nail polish last longer and look more glossy is to add a coat of UV gel top coat over it. You see UV gel top coats are not easily damaged and are very resistant to peeling and chipping making them very durable. This means that they can potentially allow your regular manicure to last for days depending on the brand that you use.
You see Gel polishes are amazing they look nice and glossy. And, more importantly, they are super durable allowing them to last for a long time, with some brands lasting for 3 weeks without chipping, peeling, or fading. In comparison, regular nail polishes and top coat are less durable and only can last on average of days depending on how much activity you do.
Now by using a gel top coat with regular nail polishes you can get the durability and glossiness of gel polish, without all of its drawbacks. I recommend and use Gelish Top Coat, they are a premium brand that is amazingly durable and should give you 2 weeks of wear when used with regular nail polishes. What about doing a gel base coat followed by a gel top coat, curing both and then using a RNP on top? Could you take the RNP off with non-acetone remover and leave the gel on for longer?
I tried this technique with Dazzle Dry Polish and it worked! I did have to try it twice. The first time, I did not apply Dazzle Dry topcoat, and my mani turned from pink to white within 24 hours. The second time, I applied the Dazzle Dry topcoat before applying and curing the gel topcoat and the color did not change. Dazzle Dry is great for this technique because it dries so fast. I was able to apply and cure my gel topcoat less than 5 minutes after doing 3 coats of dazzle dry colors and 1 dazzle dry topcoat.
This is great! Now I can do my regular Dazzle Dry manis for my toes and do the gel sandwich for my fingers :.
Right now I have on blue RNP with a gel topcoat to make it last longer. Would it be too thick? Hello there. Just wondering, did you remember to completely remove the tacky layer prior to applying the regular polish? I made this same mistake when I first discovered this technique.. The 3 most important things are: Capping the ends. Removing the tacky layer. Allowing enough drying time. I did this process on 3 different people and it did not work.
It wrinkles every time. I put on the base gel coat, cure wipe sticky off and then it looks blotchy and I clean the nails very well. Do you think I got a bad base coat? The gel base coat is blotchy? I have found that putting regular nail polish on top of the gel polish works really well for me. I use the base coat, clear polish, and then the top coat. Then when I want to add color…I just put the new color on top. I can take it off with acetone easily and change colors as often as I like.
The Polish usually last 5 to 7 days. My question is can I skip the clear gel polish? My reason for this madness is to keep my nails strong. After putting foundation is the normal color very thin, should I put it in the uv lamp to dry?
Instead to wait in hours before putting top it off? I keep an acrylic top coat on my nails, and I do the gellie sandwich often. This is the same technic that I use. The only difference is that I take my gel base coat all the way over the edge onto the underside of the tip. That way, I can cap the end with the rnp and then connect the gel top coat the the base coat on the underside. It works beautifully. Also, by pulling the gel base and top coat to the underside, it protects my natural nail and keeps it from turning yellow.
I try to do the rnp at night, with a quick dry top coat. I do one hand at a time, so as to not be totally helpless. I give an hour dry time between the first and second. Then another hour of being careful before I lay down to sleep.
