Diy Gel Nails

To do DIY gel nails, you will need a gel nail kit, which includes a base coat, top coat, gel polish colors, and an LED or UV lamp.

1. Prep your nails. Remove any existing nail polish and file your nails into the desired shape. Push back your cuticles with an orangewood stick or cuticle pusher.
2. Apply base coat. Apply a thin layer of base coat to each nail and cure under the lamp for the recommended time (usually 30 seconds).
3. Apply gel polish. Apply a thin layer of gel polish to each nail and cure under the lamp. Repeat for two or three coats, or until you reach the desired opacity.
4. Apply top coat. Apply a thin layer of top coat to each nail and cure under the lamp for the recommended time.
5. Remove any stickiness. Wipe each nail with a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol to remove any stickiness.

Enjoy your DIY gel nails!

Tips:

• Make sure to cap the free edge of your nails with each layer of gel polish and top coat to prevent chipping.
• If you get any gel polish on your skin, wipe it off immediately with rubbing alcohol before curing.
• To remove gel nails, soak your nails in acetone for 10-15 minutes, then gently push off the gel polish with an orangewood stick.

Have fun and be creative with your DIY gel nails!
