I would respectfully add that you cure the first color coat completely before adding the next one..colors in the gels block the light so my rule of thumb is that if it is completely clear..you can do a quick "freeze in place" cure and keep adding layers, but if there is pigment in the gel, full cure the previous underlying layer first!

Then cure then the top coat and cure again? Also, what is the best advice to give to avoid lifting for gels for a newbie to gels?
