    You're right. No gel involved here. That's nail glue resin, that's why it's so thick. And this process is what used to be called a nail wrap. It's just an acrylic alternative. They look great !

    For anyone doing these a few tips:
    1. Skip the step that says to swipe over the tip to blend it to the nail. It weakens the hold
    2. Rough up the entire nail, tip and blend seem yourself.
    3. Wrap the tip when you do each coat. As the glue/gel hardens after the activator it shrinks a little.
    4. Do 3 to 4 coats if you're rough on your nails
    I found these help them last longer

    Back in the day in the 80’s or the 90’s gel was used with a gel activator not always a uv lamp so as long it has an activator its
    gel girl that gel activator would burn your nails i guess thats why they have the lamp now lol but its still has the heat spike it was a spray activator which made it burn so bad fiberglass was set almost the same way back then the nail game as truly changed drastically! 😘 thank you for sharing
