Hi, I've just tried an at gel manicure for the first time. it was easy enough to do but a couple of the nails went cloudy when I used the alcohol cleanser after curing the top coat... does anyone have any idea what I did wrong? thanks.

Just to add I cured them for 120 seconds. I did 4 fingers and cured them then my thumbs separate.

I did a sneaky normal top coat over the cloudy ones ;-) the little finger needed no help tho!

Sounds like you over cured them, make sure you go by the product recommendation.

You can't over cure gel, but if it happens again, just take a really soft buffer and take the shine off slightly then apply top again and cure :-)
