items My nail obsession started literally in 5th grade, I was OBSESSED with doing my nails and fun designs. Once I found out about gel polish and dip, it was literally game over. My nails are redone every two weeks no exceptions. They are also never not do...

All time fav DND nail polishes
DND polishes are just superior, they go on sale (like real sale) multiple times throughout the year and are such good quality. It’s so hard to not just purchase every single color you see because they seriously are all so good. These are my favs that...
Okok I know you’ve heard this color before so I don’t think I need to say much about it. This color is PERFECT for winter time, it makes you look so put together and mature. It goes on so nice it’s just perfection.
Cherry Mocha #751
Just another perfect summer/spring color. It’s so versatile for designs and it’s pretty opaque which is hard to find in a super light yellow. I really wanted to find a yellow that was super light and not too yellow and I think this one is perfect, it...
Dainty Daisies #2515
I am OBSESSED with this shade of pink. It is so perfect to me idk why I just love it so much. I get so many compliments when I wear it. It’s bright and fun for the summer and look SO GOOD with a tan.
Whirly Pop #726
Finding a good milky white is SO hard but once I found this one the search was over. I love how this looks and it gives the perfect actual milky white, it’s not nude or pink it’s literally milky white. Such a good staple for literally any design.
Tie The Knot #861
Not kidding the first time I used this as a solid color I got a compliment on my nails every time I went out. This color literally turns heads I’m obsessed with it. It’s such a good summer/spring color. With a tan this color is teaaaaa🤌🤌
Blue Earth #575
Dip necessities
My routine is that I do a clear dip layer (3 layers) and then paint gel over it so it’s basically the same routine as doing acrylics but without the stinky acrylic. This is my favorite method, and I’ve tried SO many other ways (polygel, gelx, builder...
I use acrylic powder as my dip powder bc it works the same and I like this brand. She’s simple and she gets the job done.
Dip powder
This kit is great for beginners just to get a taste of what dip is like. This is the one I started with and has served me well. No complaints!
Base and activator
This is the base I got after running out of the first brand and I love it. It’s reliable and durable and I’ve never had problems with it. You just have to make sure you don’t get any type of activator on it and brush the excess dip off ur nails befor...
Dip base
You can really use any brush to dust the powder between each layer but I really like these bc they’re small enough to fit over the dip container and not dust the powder everywhere but also big enough to dust over ur whole nail. Trust me those things ...
Dip brush
I use this as activator now bc it’s so much cheaper and does the same exact thing that activator does. Just make sure that you are getting >90% or else it won’t work.
Rubbing alcohol (activator)
Tools
These files are my absolute fav, they’re so versatile bc there’s so many of them and they all work really well. I’ve gotten some from shein but I really don’t like to use them, just get these trust.
Nail files
You WILL need these if you start doing ur nails consistently, yes you can use paper towels but these are just so much better/easier to use.
Lint Free Pads
Guys trust me just get the better quality drill. I had a super cheap one before I it just was not good enough. It’s so nice having a good quality one that will actually get the job done and I love this one. You can change its direction and it can go ...
Sally Beauty
Good brushes are SO important if you want to do designs and these brushes are perfect. Just make sure to take good care of them (clean them w alc after using and don’t bend to bristles) so that they actually last.
Fine brushes for art
I lowkey hate doing my cuticles and dread it every time but if you have good tools then it won’t take you long. I really like using these ones together and they will get the job done for you.
Cuticle prep
I used to only have one dotter and trust me you need a bunch of different sizes or your designs will not turn out how you want them. After I got diff sizes life became sm easier.
