I've been doing my own home gel-x nails for about 2 years and here is everything I use! My nails last me almost 3 weeks when I use these. All from amazon :)
Easy to apply! Multiple sizes, and the clear base allow for full curing of gel glue. I've gotten sooooo many compliments when I have them on.

I use these to clear up the cutiles when applying gel nails or polish.

Part of my nail kit, I fill with acetone for clean ups while applying my nails.

I use this for flash curing the gel x nails, to hold them in place before doing a full cure under the lamp.

This nail glue is awsome, serves as glue but also perfect for gem applications. and the Top Coat is so glossy!
Beetles Gel Nail Glue & No Wipe Top Coat Kit
This is my secret! I apply this only on the part of the white french tip and it makes it last so long! Without it I noticed the paint chips.
Beetles Clear Builder Gel 8-in-1 Nail Kit
You don't NEED this but I def reccomend it. I would do everything with just a nail file, but this has made it SO much quicker and I have noticed better retention using this. I'm able to etch the back of the gel x nail with this, which helps them last...

My exact one I've had for YEARS so I've linked this one as it's similar. But any LED lamp will do :)

Nail prep is key! I prep my nails with all these tools and then I also use the nail file to file my gel x nails into the shape I need or just to file the little bump at the bottom of it.
FANDAMEI Nail Care Kit with Files & Cuticle Tools
I use this because I like the color of the base as well. I go back and forth between this set and the nude set. It's just your preference!
