Hi Michelle,
It is $19.95 for a .6 Nail polish bottle or 4oz refill, that will fill your bottle up 6 ½ times for $112.95 or an 8oz refill that will fill your bottle up 13 times for $219.95 The total cost for a full set, including primer, prep, color gel, paper towel and cuticle oil is under $1.50 per client. I would suggest going to www.gelousy.com, register as a licensed nail tech and view the application video when you click on the “Technical Support” tab, before you decide to purchase. We don’t put ANY instruction videos on youtube or anywhere else where the public can see them. Why would we want to teach the public how to apply the stuff? The only place you can purchase our products is from us or one of our distributors and we both require you to be licensed. You can’t buy our stuff on an e-bay store, at Amazon or any other gel-whatever.com place. We actually enforce the “Licensed Only” requirement. IF someone does get ahold of some that doesn’t have a license we will not provide any support nor will we send them instructions or answer any of their questions. Whew, that was a long ride on a high horse. In the video we show you how to apply the product as a “gel manicure or gel pedicure” not as a polish replacement, but it can be used both ways. You will see me doing three things that are optional. 1. Removing the shine on the natural nail. 2. Using the scrub brush to prep the natural nail 3. Building an arch. The first thing is only if you want your client to go more than 14 days. Basically if you remove the shine from the natural nail, the product will stay on until it grows off, or about three months. The second thing, the scrub brush is what we call “best practices”. If you want the best possible adhesion, use the scrub brush. If you have an old brush you can cut the bristles short and make your own, or you can buy ours. If you don’t want to do that step, then just wipe the nail with a paper towel with some Nail Prep on it to clean and dehydrate. If you want them to go 14 days you don’t really even need to do that. But like I said, it is part of “best practices”. The third thing, building an arch, is also optional. If they need an arch and you want to make a pretty looking enhancement, then you do it. If you want a nail polish replacement, then it is not necessary. It will cure in most any lamp with 6 or 9 watt bulbs. There are some really crappy lamps out there that it will not work in even if they have 6 or 9 watt bulbs, but that is the exception to the rule. It will soak off in 5-10 minutes, depending on a few different factors. One of them being if your “discount” place that you buy your acetone from has some non-english speaking guy in the back room filling the bottles up with half water. (happens ALL the time) Or you can simply thin it out with a file and put 1 coat over the top of it for a fill. Our 1-Step will work with nearly any other color gel out there (with a few exceptions). And it will STILL soak off, even if you use a non-soak off color gel. Pretty cool eh? Oh and you can even seal rhinestones, striper polish, decals, glitter, pigmy goats or just about anything else between the coats and it will STILL soak off. My favorite way to soak it off is to put acetone on a small cotton ball, place it on the nail, then wrap it in foil. But you can use those expensive as hell fancy soak off pads too. Or if you are feeling particularly randy, just dip your client in a vat of acetone. After 5 minutes you can remove 1 and try scraping it off with an orangewood stick or a cuticle pusher. If it doesn’t come off very easily, re wrap it and wait another 5. It will scrape off in strips without much pressure at all. So here are the application steps: 1. Prep 2. Use Gelousy Gel-a-Bond acid free primer (optional, but part of that best practices stuff) 3. 1 coat of 1-Step, cure for 2 minutes 4. 1 or 2 coats of color depending on the brand you are using. (optional) 5. 2nd coat of 1-Step, cure for 2 minutes 6. Wipe the sticky residue. (inhibition layer) 7. Take all your cash to the bank and buy an Xbox, then play poker on Xbox live with me. (gamer tag, kidpsyco) You can call it gel polish, hybrid polish, gel enhancement, gel manicure or aunt Betty’s secret juice. I don’t care what you call it, but I’m not going to pretend it isn’t gel. It won’t get hard or yellow over time, we guarantee a 10 year shelf life, if you keep it out of the sun and away from your UV lamp. If you store it in a sunny window or on the back porch, of course it will cure in the bottle. I won’t replace it for you if you tell me you like to the bottle to the beach with you. That one is on you. The only thing that will cure it is UV light. You won’t mess up the solvent balance by accidently keeping your bottle open overnight or refilling it with our refill sizes. If you don’t like the stuff, call me up (I actually answer my own phone) and tell me I am a looser and I will give you your money back. You can keep the bottle and burn it slowly in your back yard, while looking at a picture of me cursing the day I was borne. Or you could just throw it away.

Perhaps a better name would have been “1-Phase”, “1-Unit” or “Amazing 7 Minute Soak Off Polish Replacement That Has Been Out For 6 Years, Is In Stock All The Time And Doesn’t Bubble Or Wrinkle And Actually Provides Strength To The Natural Nail That Comes In A Nail Polish Bottle And Costs Less Per Use Then Any Similar Product And Works With 58 Colors Including 8 F/X Colors To Give You Over 300 Color Options”. But that is not as catchy.

Do you want the technical explanation as to why our 1-step gel will soak off? It is pretty chemistry heavy. You asked can you use a SOG top coat, I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean someone else's soak off topcoat or do you mean our 1-Step? Our 1-Step soaks off, I am not sure why you would want to use a different SOG topcoat. You also asked if our 1-step would soak off other non-soak off colors. I don't know. I can tell you it works with our 58 colors, as far as working with anyone else's, I don't know. I would need to look at their formula or get a sample of their gel to analyze it. Yes we have classes.

Sorry to be a PITA, but can you explain how/why that works and can we use a sog top coat? Also, if the 1-Step does that for your colors could it work for other non-sog colors? Also, do you have classes? Thanks again!

They soak off in 6 minutes with 100% acetone or in 10 minutes with "generic" acetone. 1-Step is very versatile. You can apply over the natural nail without removing the shine and we will guarantee 14 days. If you do remove the shine we will guarantee 42 days. You can build an arch, or you can apply it nail polish thin. It will actually provide strength and help to heal damaged nails, unlike many of the "new" products.
