Can gel polish go on acrylic nails. This method can be used on acrylic and polygel nails as well. Depending on application on natural nails or on artificial nails. The result is a glossy chip free manicure.

Because it is like a polish it cant be used to extend your nail. You have to file the tips to rough up the surface. Also oils seeps.

Gel nail coloring does not fade away like regular nail paint. The main benefit is that it reduces chipping. Gel nail coloring retains its shine for a long time.

If the color you initially chose for the acrylics isnt suiting your look a polish change can hold you over to your next fill. I suggest you thin out the acrylic first so when youre done the nails arent too thick. Acrylic nails will see you through two to three weeks of tasks all while creating the look of strong and healthy nails.

Changing the polish on your acrylic nails can sometimes prove difficult. Those who use gel nail polish and acrylics find that these processes are faster going on but being removed can take a very long time. 10-29-2014 1050 AM.

Gel nail polish is applied similarly to that of a normal polish but instead of leaving the polish to dry it is cured under a UV light. Generally the cost of repair one broken nail with acrylic nails is between 3 to 5 and the process of putting acrylics over your broken nail only takes less than 5 minutes without polishing. The only thing to consider is how it may affect the aesthetics of your nails.
