Well today I decided to do a trial run of the Gelish "sandwich" featuring Revlon "Starry Pink"
I'm not sold on this color. I think I may swap it. I bet I can dupe it with a milky pink and DL fairytale glitter. I choose it because it's a fun neutral and work appropriate.
My method:
1. pH bond
2. Gelish foundation. Cure 1 minute.
3. 2 coats Revlon, waited 15 minutes to airdry.
4. Gelish Top it off. Cure 3 minutes.
5. Remove tacky layer.
First impression: it really does leave a tacky layer, but the Cleanser and lint-free wipe take care of that problem. My nails feel "thick" but it may be secondary to applying the products too thickly. I guess I'll get better at it with time. So I plan on posting what happens over the next few days. Rumor has it, may mani can stay chip free for 2 weeks or so. Wish me luck!
Otherwise my plan B is to do a gel overlay on my nails, and proceed with the usually regular NP and topcoat.
In regards to stamping, after experiencing this tackiness in person: stamp after last step and apply a good top coat. I think the Gelish Top it off will smear Konad.
