Hello!

This may be a silly question, I'm new to the nail art scene with gel and gel polish and I'm wondering can you use both acrylic paints and regular nail polish for art on top of gels?

I don't like gels for art as they slip and slide and I'd just prefer paints.

I've seen a few YouTube videos of techs using nail polish and acrylic paints and sealing it over their gels with a gel top coat? It looked great but I'm just wondering if that's the done thing or would it cause the gel top coat to lift or anything?

Would really appreciate you sharing your pearls of nail technician wisdom with me!

Thanks xx
