How To Get A $50 Gel Manicure At Home

Don’t worry, its only about $400 worth of stuff then you can mess up your nails in a professional type way.

[@voltiss]

@@WeTheDylan no it's not?? It's be like $50usd tops

[@nikolpetrova8448]

Ok yall whining about the supplies and expenses: I spent about 100€ on the lamp, pads, cuticle pusher, files, base/top laquer, a few gel colours, brushes and even got some building liquid gel and nail extensions and if you follow the instructions she gave it will turn out great! And after a few weeks you have already "paid off" all that money you would spend in the salon and that stuff can last you YEARS! Definetly worth the investment!😉

[@sarabaq1960]

Yes! ⬆️⬆️⬆️ I've invested around $100 on nail supplies and I've done at least $300 worth of nail art already!

[@jess05188]

Exactly! Everyone just looks at the initial cost and never thinks about how long this stuff is gonna last you.

[@pamplemousse9971]

I just got a salon quality lamp, tonnes of gel polishes and other tools and supplies for £30 on a second hand website. Often salons will sell their old stock off for cheap prices. So much more affordable than going to the salon all the time xx

[@alexispark3678]

As a perfectionist, I am obsessed with your level of detail and excited to try a few new tools I’ve been missing!

[@LoveKeepsGoing11]

I am seriously considering investing in all of these… I LOVE doing my nails, it’s therapeutic for me (until I’m almost done and I mess up a nail 🤦🏻‍♀️) anyways, I just want to learn to do my own gel nails, problem it’s I’m a newbie at this and I don’t know what products work or not

[@Mzd455]

I love this short video that gives you all the steps you need to do to have a neat nails. You don't need all the brushes and stuff, I have an electric manicure rotating tools and I use fine sandpaper. I literally have sheets of different sand paper that does all the trick. Just pick the right sharpness, fold it and file.
What I would like to know is how often can you take the gel polish off and use the LED/UV lamp, not to damage your skin and nails. Also, do you put any sunscreen product on your skin,
I do, when exposing my hands for couple of times under the lamp. I clean the nails but I spray all of my hands. I had a bad experience after fist use of the lamp, as I work hard and hands always in water, my skin was later even more dry. But looks nice if I use UV protection

[@pizzajem07]

I never even thought about sunscreen

[@Chip213DeRose]

You can get LED lamps now so no uv damage.

[@karenryancrawford6401]

Thanks for showing a fairly easy way to do our own gel nail. Because of the work I did, I started doing my own back in the mid 1980s and they didn't constantly break off. Of course this was when they did the acrylics. You make them so beautiful!
Only one question; how do tou keep the nail tip from coming off your natural nail? Thanks for your expertise!

[@jennifermarea8011]

I feel like the hardest part for me is taking the gel nail polish off afterwards

[@madcoolcumber]

Clicked on this because I thought it would be simple brushing techniques and specific brands but no, it’s basically “have a full set of professional nail salon at home and you’re set”

[@Lill2895]

It literally says it's for a $50 manicure but done at home. And it's really not complicated.

[@madcoolcumber]

Lillian Smith yeah it’s not complicated at all to do your nails, but almost no one has this stuff? That’s all I was saying.

[@audrey0707]

All you need is top coat, base coat, nail polish remover and a nail polish colour and some qtips

[@madcoolcumber]

@@audrey0707 I know how to paint my nails lmao, it’s just, the thumbnail and title were misleading.

[@MyCrimsonMischief]

@@madcoolcumber it's not misleading, people who do gel polishes at home have the stuff, products similar to what she used can be found on Amazon for inexpensive prices ranging from 6 to $12. All you need is a small 24 watt lamp a UV gel base coat and top coat, UV gel color, probably alcohol and the cuticle remover. And the title said $50 gel nails, if you pay attention when you go to the nail salon you'll know that she simplified it.

Do you have to use a cuticle oil at the end? Can you use like coconut oil or Jehovah oil or any other carrier oil?

[@lindaw1322]

Could you please add all the things and where they can purchased from. Also great video 😃

[@SailorSerenitySaturn]

Cristine doesn’t want us to use a metal tool on our cuticles, she uses an orange stick instead!!

[@recoil53]

Well Bio Seaweed Gel doesn't have an orange stick.

[@lenniegray3086]

A lot of Cristine's techniques are actually flawed. Using a metal tool on your cuticles isn't dangerous. Cuticle is literally just the dead skin on the surface of the nail. Don't use a metal tool on your EPONYCHIUM, which is the live skin around your nail.

[@princesstruc2005]

And no files other than glass ones. 😂🤣

[@calypsos9584]

@@lenniegray3086 she actually does use a metal cuticle pusher (and is coming out with her own too), she recommends not using a metal tool on your nail while removing nail polish (peel off or otherwise) because that hacks at your nails.

If you’re broke like me, I found a $2 led lamp on aliexpress and bought ano wipe gel top coat. So I paint on regular base coat and two coats of colour before I go to bed, then by morning everything is completely dry, then I wash my hands and paint on the gel top coat and cure it

[@eleni8826]

But is the nail lamp hood quality?

[@nanaesio.nyarkoh2858]

@@eleni8826 did you mean good? If so then yes! The lamp is smaller than my hand but just 60 seconds and gel polish is fully cured. It's hands down my favourite purchase of last year and it's made life so much easier, since I don't have to wait hours for my top coat to dry anymore and the lamp is so tiny and portable

how to do ur own gel manicure at home while alll the stores are closed u will just need evrything u dont have

[@kyndramb7050]

I've been buying gel polishes and accessories for years from Amazon. Its so much more economical to buy the polishes and do it at home. If you want to, and the more you practice the better you get at it.

[@recoil53]

Yeah, e-commerce has grown even faster with the lockdown.
You get better prices if you can wait and a greater variety/quality if you really look.

[@kazakukog]

[@4hisglory365]

Looks nice. I like the way you shaped them too. I normally go for a square shape however I often get corner splits do you think the shape you had could reduce that?

[@petsandthingsilike]

This doesn't happen to me but I think this is a protein defficiency in nails, try nail strengthener!! sounds like your nails are thin

[@jessicah3450]

Rounded nails do tend to snag on things less. If you like squares, you could try squoval-a square with rounded oval corners.

[@mailevakapuna9797]

When curing the polish after do you ever wipe it down with alcohol wipes or can I cure the polish and do another layer?

[@gianniechauri1731]

[@w..j..2605]

Y’all can order all this stuff cheaper on Amazon. A UV/LED lamp is less than $20. Babe Nail has the best gel polish, in my opinion for less than $10.

Hello dear, Is it necessary to use base coat?

[@dana-sophie]

From my understanding yes ,because it helps to adhesive the polish on top of the nail and to connect the polishes

[@thenaturalselector81]

Funny how they don't list the price of each product. No way can you do this with $50 starting from scratch. And if you don't have experience doing your own nails, they will not turn out as polished as hers, don't fool yourself.

[@piaaadah]

I think you can if you buy your products from somewhere like aliexpress. They have pretty decent quality nail tools and products for cheap

[@rustykeyz1082]

You can. You just need to practice, go to places like amazon where they have the kit thingies

[@megan_8587]

if you don’t practice you won’t get better

[@pointystuff]

You can buy gel kits in Amazon for under $30. A basic manicures clipper set for like $10 which comes with a cuticle pusher and nippers, plus a bunch of other stuff normally. And a gel lamp for $12. It's possible if you shop around. Start cheap and then upgrade as you run out of things.

[@SimplysethhMUA]

I think by “give yourself a $50 gel mani at home” they meant give yourself a manicure that’s normally $50 for a one time manicure to yourself, not that the tools cost that much! It’s definitely not cheaper up front but long run it saves you money cause you don’t buy the tools very often. :)

@@dana-sophie second. The only problem I have had with a gel manicure is I didn't plan for how quickly my nails would grow bc they weren't breaking so I should have set aside the money for professional touch-up sooner and ended up removing it bc I had to report for duty (Army reserve) and couldn't have coloured or longer nails! But I would have gotten a clear/natural replacement bc it keeps them so hard and durableand working on 915a5(semi trucks w up armour capability) and various types of HMMWVs(Humvees) my fingertips get squished frequently bc my nails are also very brittle and bend easily under pressure.
