This is a great idea if you want a traditional manicure to last a week instead of just a few days. However it’s not a gel manicure or carry the results of one you would recieve in a salon. Salon gel manicures last two weeks or more, gel is a resin that is cured with a uv light binding the product to natural nails and sealing them much like shrink wrap. I think your your process is fantastic for an at home manicure but maybe it shouldn’t be labeled as a gel manicure.

I’ll have to give this a try! I love having my nails done, but doing them at home always ends in chips which I can’t stand! I love getting them done, but there’s not really room in the budget for that right now. I’m pinning this so I don’t forget!

What a pretty nails you got! I hope I can do the same on my own because I had to go the the nail salon to get my nails done.

This is something that I am going to have to try. It can be rather expensive running to the nail salon every week to make sure my nails are maintained properly.

It looks great I should make more of a priority to do my nails and pamper myself at home too

I am a nail aholic and think that part of looking feminine is having nice nails. I spend way too much and this could be a much more affordable answer for me. Your nails look beautiful and like they were professionally done.

That’s a great idea – nails are a low priority for me, too! I will definitely be checking this out next time I’m at Sally’s!

Your nails look great! I have never tried gel polish, but I really want to….I don’t have the time or money to go to the nail salon, and I would love to be able to get professional looking results at home.
