Why are some UV topcoats only suitable for using over artificial nails and not for natural nails? What is the difference? Anyone know....?
Just a thought Cathie,Cathie! said:There are UV cured top coats, generally used over enamel and (so named) 'UV' top coats which can prevent ultra violet damage to enhancements which can cause yellowing, product breakdown etc.
Is there a particular product you are thinking about?
411 Pro Finish a new service worth charging a little more for
- Heat Dry a Heat activated top coat which rapidly dries all layers of nail enamel when used with 60 watt table lamps.
- U.V. Dry a U.V.Top coat which rapidly dries all layers of enamel when used with the U.V.Dial or Digital lamps.
- U.V. Lamp a professional U.V. Lamp which accelerates the drying of U.V. Dry top coat.
- Thinner Top coat thinner. Specially blended thinner for U.V. Dry and Heat top coats. Reduces the thickness and prolongs the life of U.V. Dry and Heat Dry top coats.

It was the UV topcoat you use under a UV lamp for that nice shiney more durable finished look for natural nails that have had polish applied. I have the UV topcoat to prevent yellowing etc..I use the INM one, love it to bits!
I saw the new 411 range advertised and thought brill!....but you can't use it with your Brisa lamp you have to buy a different lamp...and spend more money and cart even more stuff around!!......arghhhh!
I would really like to find one that I can use with my existing lamp. Am I right in thinking too that if I use this kind UV topcoat it will need to be buffed off like gel?
