can you mix shellac polishes together before curing?
 
No, I asked Geeg when she was here and she said no. Something to do with the colours actually cure at different times but they say two minutes/60 seconds LED as it's all encompassing and you can't over cure. If they had to specify which colours need what time it would get confusing and potentially cause problems with under curing, etc.

So only layering as Noodle says, I do know techs who are mixing pre application and say their not having issues but the second it chipped/peeled/whatever I'd lose faith
 
every colour has its own unique amount of photointiators to ensure a full cure. Mixing before applying will affect the cure and may lead to service breakdown and overexposure.

It's also not cost effective as there would be a lot of waste from transferring it out and then it would be awkward to paint with after it is mixed :)

Much easier and safer to just layer your colours , apply the most opaque one first for best results :)
 
Thanks ladies x
