Nail glue?

Can anyone suggest a glue for sticking down gel nail polish when it starts to peel from the nail.
It seems to be happening a lot lately.

    If you glue any type of nail coating down you're trapping in pathogens which could lead to a nail infection.
    Do not soak them in water or expose them to chemicals. I would go back to the nail tech and complain about it! I use cuticle oil daily and I have perfect nails for 2 weeks.

    Thanks. My nails are rarely in water and I regularly use hand cream and opi cuticle oil but I had read cuticle oil can make it worse?
