dont mean to take over this thread but im having a blonde moment am i right that if you put these gels over l & p then the solar oil would not help to prevent lifting and keep the enhancements flexible as the topcoat (gel) is non-porious..i have toyed in the past with the ideas of gel topcoats because i love the shine but have always wondered about cuticle oil...i would love some feedback....also does this need to be filed of before a soak off there for more time consuming....
Using oil with gels is still important...the gap that you leave around the sides and cuticle area is where the oil can penetrate and do its stuff....HTH
