How do you remove airbrush color on my gel nails. Nails were done 4 days ago and the white color is already chipped and nail polish does not work.

I have gel nails and I use polish remover, and it works. If they were air brushed you will just have to work a little harder to get the color off, I think that when they air brush it is a type of paint that they use. I use to do the air brush for french manicure, but I now have white tips put on. It is easier for me.

It depends entirely on if they applied a regular topcoat over the paint, or if they used a gel overlay to seal the colors. A gel overlay would have been cured under a UV light. Your best bet, if you re not sure what they used, is to go back to the salon and have them remove it.
