In my experience, 1-Step doesn't soak off as fast/well as say Eco or akzentz sog. You have to apply the 1-Step thinly on top and bottom for a faster removal. 1-Step is still my go-to product for gel mani/pedi because it is so simple to use yet wonderfully durable. I never soak stuff off

If you use the foils that are silver on one side and color on the other, the acetone takes the color off. I was using the silver/gold and when I was done both my client and I looked like we had a serious nicotine habit! :0) Sent from my iPod On May 14, 2010, at 7:13 AM, beccark

Maureen, I have had it on for two weeks and it is great. However, it really doesn't add strength like a gel overlay. It took me a minute to get used to that. To me, Shellac is hardly thicker than regular polish. I don't know how far away from me you are (I'm in Warsaw) but you are
