what can i use instead of slip solution for polygel

Hi there! Sure, you don't necessarily need a slip solution to work with polygel. You can use isopropyl alcohol which is the most common substitute. It helps to smooth the polygel allowing it to mold to the desired shape.

Just like a slip solution, isopropyl alcohol prevents polygel from sticking to the brush during application. You just need to dip your brush into the isopropyl alcohol, then you can smoothly shape the polygel on your nails.

Yes, besides isopropyl alcohol, some people use acetone, but keep in mind while it works, it can weaken the polygel over time. It's advisable to use a professional slip solution or isopropyl alcohol if possible.
