I’ve been doing my own nails for about 3 years now (after I got tired of nail techs cutting my cuticles) I started simple like you and now I am using poly gel when I want them longer than my natural nail. You should give it try!
Sooooo helpful during this quarantine..I needed my nails redone so badly but this video is way easier to do then wasting $45 plus at the salon every two weeks lol
I very much enjoyed your video. I just got my first set of gel nails a couple of weeks ago. I thought surely I can do that. With your help I'm going to give it a try. Thank you
Love! me and my sisters have spent over $300 at this point buying all the stuff we need for a fill! LOL we are three girls, plus my mom who all get our nails done every 3 weeks and keep them rachet long lol so we built a mega kit! So far, have only done one fill and it was not the best so I cant wait to see your next video with the tips so I can get better for the next time
I like the Kiara Sky & OPI gel polishes, but the Aimeili gel polishes are just as good if not better. I don’t even have to apply as many coats as I do when I use the Kiara gel. Your nails are so pretty, I still haven’t mastered shaping. But for now I have more time to practice
This video is so helpful! i just have one question, if i were to get the primer when should i put that on? also are these all the same steps for my first set i’ll do on myself?
Canni Builder Gel is excellent too. I did get mine off ebay £4.99 but thats gone up to £6.99. Still worth the money as it lasts ages, i get Clear and colour some with eye shadow if i want a colour. Xxx
I’ve been waiting for you to upload this video! I got everything you linked on IG so I can do it too! Hopefully it comes out good like yours. Love your videos girly!! Stay safe xoxo 😘
im new with this gel nail polish i never can get regular nail polish to stay on nice sooo one of the ladies that cut my hair wanted to get rid of all of it for $50 without me even asking mom got it for me got a lot to learn
I tried to my own poly gel set this weekend and boy did they come out crazy! Lol. First time always seems to be the worst so I’ll life finitely try again.
Thx for gaming us up sis. I had to go by that electric drill. I do my gel nails at home so I got alot of the stuff except that drill. That's a great idea to give it that "nail shop look" cause my gel manicure before would look kinda thick towards the cuticle and now this drill is what i was missing. I got that same one u recommended but the gray color. Thanks for sharing with us 👍😘😘
U can sand them down with the drill to remove them, first cut off the tips! And for the refill, in this video I was doing a refill on my nails since the back had grown out
Great tutorial!💕 Where can you buy the OPI Gel Polish in Bubble Bath? I already have the regular nail polish (my go to!) but know that won’t work with the UV light 🙈 Thank you for this!! 😍
Hey love it’s hard to find it on amazon or its overpriced I noticed but any gel online store you should be able to find it! Mine was from a nail supply store 💕
Steph will you be doing one with putting on the tips yourself at home? I noticed you bought the tips on your Insta stories :) Would love it if you did thanks babe!
Hi love, you don’t need to use the foil and acetone I like to avoid this since I don’t like to breathe in the acetone. Plus it also takes way longer and it’s much easier to just shave it off. The nail does become thinner when you shave it off with the drill but that’s why you build it back up with the builder gel that I showed 💗
Where did you get the OPI gel? Its so hard to come by on amazon in Canada and insanely priced from US sites! Love the nails ps, can't wait for my order to come in to do the same
@@melissaz7750 Jessica Nail Supply is on Orfus Rd by Yorkdale they litterally have everything you can dream of: sparkles, foil, opi everything, gels, dipped powders, dryers, body wax at the back, containers for sparkles, little applique butterflies and chanel and gucci symbols for the nails, dryers, e-files. I went a little crazy buying sparkles... I recommend you can buy some there but you can also get a container with square compartments for 5 bucks and then go to Dollarama and get sparkles and Gold/Silver Leaf (it's cheaper and looks so cool mixed with acrylics). I haven't tried the Nina Nails place yet but Jessica's is a huge store. You can't return anything when you buy from them though, that's the only down side.😁💅

Who else came here after destroying their nails
I didn't, but I love this comment 💜
Me
🙋😂
Hay Steph hope doing well during the crisis stay safe girl nice and fresh content appropriate it love from Ireland
Hi ! I have a question. How do you remove/refill te gel manicures? I had a few problems with that. Help me ! ❤️ Love the nails !!!
U can sand them down with the drill to remove them, first cut off the tips! And for the refill, in this video I was doing a refill on my nails since the back had grown out
What color were you wearing prior ??
Thanks babygirl really appreciate your video
Amazing!
🙌🏻
Thank you 🙏🏼
Seems to me that the pen dispensers of UV light that target only the nail are safer, since exposure to UV light is linked to carcinomas of the skin.
Where did you buy the OPI bubble bath gel polish? It's like $35 Canadian on amazon lol
I got it at a nail supply store 💕 check online for gel polish stores
What did you use if you didn’t use a base coat? And you said you did it 4 times?
Ok I’m new to this, why the nail look like fake nail (thick) is gel nail thing means is gonna make nail thicker like acrylic nail ?
if ur nails are bubbly, that means the gel didnt cure well, it means u need to expose ur nails to more uv light and ur fingers so protect them.
So you don’t use acetone? Sorry so new to this
It is very beautiful😍❤️
How much did everything cost you? I want to do my nails but dont want to spend much
nicolesardinha I posted a nail video on my channel and it was under $20!

what’s the difference between builder base and base coat
Builder base is a thick gel that will build your nail and base is just a coat before some gel polishes.
Do you have to use build a base gel or can you just use base colour and top coats?
The builder base is what makes your nail thicker and stronger but it’s not needed on natural nails if you don’t want to 🙌🏼
Steph will you be doing one with putting on the tips yourself at home? I noticed you bought the tips on your Insta stories :) Would love it if you did thanks babe!
Yes yes! Coming soon and I’m excited to post that one 💗🙌🏼
Love it ❤️😘
So with the buffer you don’t need to wrap them in acetone and foil? Doesn’t it make the nail too thin?
Hi love, you don’t need to use the foil and acetone I like to avoid this since I don’t like to breathe in the acetone. Plus it also takes way longer and it’s much easier to just shave it off. The nail does become thinner when you shave it off with the drill but that’s why you build it back up with the builder gel that I showed 💗
Where to buy OPI bubble bath Gel?
my nails chip after they grow so far and that's not that long or they are thin and break what can i do for that
How long does this last? I think I missed it :/
My nails look so horrible right now 😩😩😂
Looks like I dropped my fingers in a wood chipper 😭😂
😂😂
Its all easy to do your nails at home! I posted an at home nail video on my channel too :)
How long do home done gel nails like this actually last before you need to redo?
Mine last up to 3 weeks before I need to do a fill
Stephanie Macedo thank you! ☺️
Stephanie Macedo how do you maintain nails while doing chores that involve lots of water i.e cleaning bathrooms?
I love bubble bath but it always stricks the only polish that doesn't do that is etssy
Where did you get the OPI gel? Its so hard to come by on amazon in Canada and insanely priced from US sites! Love the nails ps, can't wait for my order to come in to do the same
Try looking at a gel nail supply store online, I got mine at an actual nail supply store awhile back!
if your from toronto go to Jessica Nail Supply or Nina Nail Supply
Stephanie Macedo will do, thank you ❤️
Cathleen Marks I am! Thank you I’ll look into those !❤️
