I wasn't looking forward to removing my polish this week, but the effect I achieved with my mani this week was really, really worth it.

I won't peel off properly in that case. Take a look at the video (link at the bottom of the post) testing out this technique with and without a base coat. You can also see how thick it is applied there.Anutkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14656243897505897699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4686528236924688493.post-2925745886841711282013-02-24T07:11:13.092-08:002013-02-24T07:11:13.092-08:00How thick should the layer of glue be?

I also have trouble with it "leveling," and it made for a bumpy final product. I think the glue I used was too runny--I may have to leave the cap off and let it dry out a bit!<br />Regarding using on acrylics, I don't think it would peel off--my suggestion would be to try it with a couple coats of non-glitter polish and see if it peels. That way, if it doesn't peel, you can still remove it with non-acetone remover.<br />For the record, first time I tried this, it wore fine for three days, was starting to chip, and then I went an spilled a Venti coffee on my desk. Cleanup was the death knell lol<br />DWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10669527334023053435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4686528236924688493.post-13255347932481584182013-01-14T12:21:46.387-08:002013-01-14T12:21:46.387-08:00@Nessenia, I don't know anything about acrylic...@Nessenia, I don't know anything about acrylic nails.
