Diana, I have been using Star Eco SO and it soaks off in 5 minutes with the cotton ball/foil method and electric mitts. It crinkles up and comes right off with a pusher. Lisa Cianciotti Simply Polished Studio for Nails Mount Pleasant, PA

One nail had lifting, looked like lifting from a gel or ac full enhancement. It was flexible, and since this is the first time I,ve seen Axium, I was surprised how it looked more like an enhancement vs. gel polish. It had more of a look and feel of Mani-Q, which I use all the time for my soft gel manicures (switched several ac clients to Mani-q). This woman refused to let me file off. It was on the thick side, but again, beautiful. For 30-45 minutes, used the foil/cotton method, and I scraped, picked and soaked. I only had her for a 1hour appt. By the time I got it off, realized and INFORMED her that if she let me file it off it would have been less damaging. I file my SOG off, not soak. The tech destroys the nails not the e-file. Soooooooo I can see with the SOG in the bottle, you might soak off, because it is THINNER. So this may be the reason they advertise soak off in 10 minutes. New at this bottle SOG, but soak vs filing off would depend on how much product was applied.
