WILL ADD TO AS I FIND NEW PRODUCTS ---- Okay, so I started doing my own gel nails at home after having acrylics for like 8 years on and off. I started this journey when my acrylic retention was AWFUL I would lose nails days after getting them done, I determined this was probably from my nails being soooo damaged. I am a always have to have my nails done girly though so I needed to find a solution and paying to get just a gel polish done seemed excessive, SO I learned how to do them myself and let me tell you it was rough at first but slowly I figured out how to do it, with the help of tik tok university and now here we are. I am a long nail girl through and through so I learned how to do Gel- X at the start of this year and really put an emphasis on nail health first and foremost ( I know doing any nails is not the best, but I have found this is better for my nails than acrylics and still allows them to grow and be healthy) I am gonna try to consolidate this list and order it the way of application but i LOVE talking nails so if you have any questions at all feel free to reach out to me!
