when putting any of the glitter or other things that come with this set, do you put this on right after you put nail polish on?

I used a small amount of nail glue to adhere the items with a toothpick, or you can use clear nail polish as well. They have to have some sort of adhesive to make them stick to the nail, so my answer would be yes.

Yes, I also use clear coat immediately after applying the item. That's the only way to keep it attached. Good luck, I'm enjoying my set. Get lots of compliments.

Yes, it will stick better to the nail. You have to put a top coat after placing the glitter or anything in order to stop it from falling off.

I put the polish on let it dry, then put a little dab on where I want to put the jewel on and press down. I am very armature when it comes to nails and nail art, so I am sure there is a better way to do this. They sometimes stay on great and other times fall off fast.

Well, the strips come in various sizes, and if some do fall to the side of the nail all you do is file that excess away. Personally, I hate the strips. They don't adhere well and it is most people's case that the strips start chipping merely hours after applying it. The GEL on the other hand is amazing. I use regular nail polish, let it dry THOROUGHLY and then apply the gel and cure with the LED lamp. This does extend the life of the nail polish and the gloss and shine is unbelievable. The strips.. nah!

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.

It says to put it on and then put a top coat on it and nail polish if you like. I take it off about every 4 to 5 days and re-apply it. It's working well for me. My nails are getting stronger. I've been using it for about 4 weeks now.

You need to do the separately, thumbs first then one hand and then the other. I just did my nails last Sat. over 9 days ago and I don't have ANY chips! This stuff is hard to get off but worth the wear time!

I have heard that you can use Nonyx with nail polish - here's how: To clean nails apply Nonyx gel first (ideally with a soft brush so that it dries smooth). After the gel has dried completely (about 5 minutes) apply your polish. If possible, squeeze some Nonyx gel under nail tips daily, especially after bathing, After you remove your nail polish, wash nails well, then repeat the process, starting with Nonyx.

It would depend on the piece of furniture, if it is something like a table that will be used often, I would put a protective coat on it....however, you can put multiple layers of mod podge and sand between layers, put your glitter on before the final layer

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

I never noticed this happening, and I wear contacts. To be safe, I wouldn't handle my contacts immediately after applying this polish- wait until your nails have been dry a little while.

It does, but not as quick. I would leave it in for like 10 mins. on each hand. If you are wanting a quick polish dry. I usually get the polish dry air cans at your local CVS, in their nail department/make-up department. Dries right after you spray. With a 2 minute no touch set. Lightly touch on your nail if its still a little bit tacky when you use it for regular nail polish. I still have mine to this day xx

Yes. I prefer to put on my powder first and use this as a finishing touch. It gives more of a glow or shimmer that way which is what I'm looking for.

I apply it under nail polish, and it comes off with the polish. I then re-apply. It works very well this way. If you wear it alone it probably chips, so it would look smoother if you removed it and re-applied.

For me it works with any nail polish. Its just a cover up (gel) that hardens and thats what stays shiny. Its also what the nail salons use.

I put it on after I've applied foundation and concealer. I use it as a finishing powder.

No you can use the same nail polish before it dry. I put it on my nails and it last for about two weeks and I went to the beach.

For me it relatively removed my matte glitter nail polish easily. However when removing glitter or sand nail polish remember to soak them, it makes the polish come off easier. One technique I use is soak a cotton ball with the nail polish remover then place on the nail. Wrap each finger with tin foil to let the nails soak. Leave on for about two to three minutes and that should really help with the removal. Since this nail polish is less damaging to the nails, it wont hurt the health of the nails or cuticles.

No, it only had it over the design. Love my set and want to buy more. My nails always look great and I always get compliments on them.
