In yesterday's post, I mentioned that I have finally got my UV Curing Machine + Gel Kit for Nails. I swear, it is so awesome, especially the UV top coat which I tried yesterday. It is so much better than applying a topcoat of nail polish, believe me, plus it looks so much more shinier. To be honest, my nails were already nicely done before, but then I noticed a few chips in my nails and thought 'What the hell, I've only had these for 2-3 days and it's already chipped.' I applied heaps of top coat. The Quick dry one by Sally Hansen. I think I applied about 10 top coats. They dried pretty quickly so it's quite possible. Plus I'm almost out of the nail polish. =/
Anyway, so I just removed all my nail polish and the rhinestones and decided to start fresh. Originally, I just wanted to do a simple french with my real nails, however, I decided to add some flowers with gold rhinestones. On top, I applied the UV Top Coat and put in the curing machine for 2 minutes. Then I wiped off excess gel with the liquid provided in the gel kit, And voila. Hard ass nails that won't chip or break. =)
But first, my nails before...

And that's all for now. Have a great weekend everyone! =)
Pretty nails! I like the ones with the flowers. How do you do these yourself especially for the right hand? I find it so difficult!
ReplyDeleteAww thanks. Yeah it is quite difficult to paint your right hand nails, but practice makes perfect. But my left still looks a lot better than right. I guess it's better to take your time with your right hand so you get it more neater/better looking. I'll post a tute up on my next post on how I did these nails. =)
