NAILS Manicure

By SemiCrunchyAlwaysExtra

Day in my life // I’m my own nail lady. 

Brand new soft gel manicure for today with these red French tips and cuticle oil to keep things looking fresh. 

Everything you need to put on these nails is included in the kit, even if you did not have any tools. The kit comes with the nails, adhesive, top coat, and a small light to cure the glue and top coat. I preferred to use a full size nail lamp, however, so I used my own.

There are five colors included in the kit, and there are full sets of each color. You can apply them all together or mix and match across the colors. I chose to wear one of each color on each hand.

One of the ways I do self care is by doing my own manicures at home. One of my favorite nail polishes is cateye gel nail color because it is highly impactful, and low effort! 

These days I love builder gel over natural nails- everything i used to create this look is linked

#LTKBeauty #LTKStyleTip
Since I’m my own nail lady, I made sure to get myself in for a fill. (I am not a nail tech, I just love to treat myself to an at-home manicure.)💅🏽 

Using the cordless e-file I remove the existing gel nail color from my nails, making sure to leave the builder gel on. Then, I clean up the cuticle area, making sure not to skip this crucial step of nail prep. Once my nails were fully prepped, I moved on with the manicure. 

I apply base coat to the bare nail area, being sure not to touch the skin with the product. Fully cure with a UV LED nail lamp between each coat of builder get and then applied cat-eye nail polish.  ✨🪩 cateye nail color it gives it the fun nail art vibe without any art skills required. I finish with a clear topcoat, cure,  then wash my hands and apply cuticle oil. 

Style tip- keep your manicure looking fresh by keeping a cuticle oil stick / pen  handy so your manicure stays looking fresh!
