Dullness Right After Application: There are a few reasons why your gel polish may appear dull immediately after application. One common cause is if the nails are still too warm when applying the Top Coat. Let the colour cool for about 30 seconds before applying the top coat to allow excess heat to escape and prevent the Top Coat from turning dull.
Additionally, if the sticky layer of the Shine Top Coat is removed too quickly or with a cleaner from another brand, the finish can lose its shine. After the Top Coat has completely cured, wait for 2 minutes before wiping it off with our specific cleaner. Using only our recommended cleaner is essential for the best results.
However, be cautious when using the Ultra Shine Top Coat. Here there is no sticky layer, so you shouldn't use a cleaner after curing. When doing so, a dull effect will occur immediately.
Dullness Over Time: If your nails become dull over time, it could be due to external influences such as harsh cleaning products or alcohol-based substances. In this case, lightly buff the dulled Top Coat and apply a fresh layer of Top Coat to restore the shine.
