- I use a 36 watt UV gel light- 4 9 watt bulbs
i got mine on ebay for about $35 and it will last me a very long time
My polishes are all GELISH and they the base coat, black, and top coat.
Polishes average about $12 each and last about 3-4 weeks depending how rough you are on your nails.
Hope you guys enjoy and let me know if you have any questions :) xoxo

Great job! Short, simple and yet contained all the info I need. I always look for the short tutorials first. Don't have time for long ones. This was to the point. Terrific!
I'm watching this video in 2020😂

Hello from 2021:)
@@natalialyubarsky826 I thought I was the only one watching in 2021 lol
Just thought I would point out some things (just trying to be helpful and not a bitch lol). If you are going to be using the Gelish polish or any LED soft gel polish you do not need to file your nails to "remove shine". Its actually very unnecessary and can do more damage than good. You want to remove the oil and not shine. You can do this by using rubbing alcohol or a dehydrator. Also, it is faster to use a LED light (all soft gel polishes should cured with a LED not UV). If you stay away from the cuticle it can also help prevent your polish from lifting or chipping. Also, less is always more. The thinner and less coats you do will help keep your polish on longer! To apply the glitter, keep the "sticky" layer on your nails. This way the glitter has something to stick to and then you don't have to dip your top coat brush into the glitter and ruin the brush. Push down the glitter with a small piece of paper and then run the top coat over it.
Amanda Topp great tips!

Amanda Topp Nice tips! You should make a nail video. 🤗
Thanks for d tips
What’s the diff between led and uv? And if I wanna do this you’re saying to use led instead?
That background music just gives off 8 years ago vibe..
Nahh i think 9 year old vibe yk😮💨🤷🏻♀️
Short and to the point and no product plugging I enjoyed the tutorial
Hiya, i have done 2 sets on myself & have my sister asking me to do theirs too. It's so easy. Saves a lot of money.
oh dearie me,a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. i use bluesky polishes at £5.50 for 10 ml. a uv lamp and an led lamp are the same thing,they both give off ultra violet light that cures the gel polish and makes it hard.the one with 4 x 9 watt lamps uses small compact flourescent tubes,takes about a minute from cold to get to full brightness and gives off less uv so may take 2 or so minutes to cure,more if the lamps are old.led or light emitting diodes have no warm up time,give out more light so the cure time is 30 seconds or so and will last many many thousands of hours compared to flourescent tubes hundreds. with my nails i first use a bluesky primer and NEVER EVER file the nail bed as it thins the nail,then apply a base coat and cure for 2 mins or 30 secs depending on the lamp used which will then leave the nails sticky as a by product of the curing process,this needs to be removed using isopropyl alcohol,rubbing alcohol or some similar product. next apply the colour coat of choice and again cure under the uv lamp and wipe off the sticky residue,a second coat if needed for the darker colours.a final top coat can then be applied which after curing and wiping off is usually shinier than the other layers. due to the strength and multiple layers my current colour changing gel polish,cold makes them dark and warm makes them light and shades in between, has as of today been on for three weeks over my natural nails which are all about 10mm beyond the end of my fingertips,as a a transgendered man who works in a manufacturing industry i have found them to be much harder wearing than normal polishes at work as they neither chip or scuff and can be problematic only in respect of being harder to remove than conventional polish.
soapy adams Hi does it work better to remove each sticky layer , I was told to keep this on and remove only after using top coat - pls advise :-)
Holy hotness! You have really pretty hands and nails, love the black polish, looks great on you!
Thanks! I just bought all the equipment, and I'm ready! Your video makes it doable!
I want to get my own gel kit, I'm tired of paying in additional $20 for my manicure at the salon
Thanks for the video. I like the way you explained everything.
Thank you for uploading this video! (I know it's from a while back) but it has really given me some ideas! I have ordered the lamp and polishes from eBay and they are on their way! X
Worst mistake to run on ur uv light with the bottle of gel polish open near by.. it will dry and make ur polish hard
no its fine, the bottle is opaque
Dhaiana Thanks for pointing that out!
And for more info it's 2 min cure with uv light and 30 sec. With led light.. 😦
My lamp says “LED UV nail lamp” does that change the time you have your nails under it?
Whats the difference btw led and uv my lamp is uv lamp only is will the nail not dry properly ?
Ok finally you have shown me how to do this. All the other videos skip these steps and add things??? Anyway ima dude but im gonna paint stuff with this but didn't know how to use it! Now I do thanks! And thanks for your item list!
Great , easy to follow tutorial!
it has saved me SO much money! haha im glad you are going to try it out :)
PriscillaVlogs could it be used without base ??
36w thank you so much for clarifying. I was wondering which one to buy. You have lovely hands 👐 by the way. Lol
@outofhairspray They are soak off polishes but a lot of people peel them off lol thank you and I'm glad you liked it !
How long did your nails last after doing them with gel in this video?? Just curious, but they look pretty!
looks Great... ty
why don't you use nail prep ?
I am watching this video in 2023 June 29th😂
It is OK also for normal nail polish for dryer?
may I ask why you don't paint the full nail? idk if I could stand my whole cuticle area and both side walls unpainted while just the larger mid portion of the nail painted...
To be honest, mine NEVER chip. when i wear nail polish my nails chip after 2 days but these never chip, maybe once in 3 weeks but thats very rare.
Doing this for the classic guitar!
Pretty nails hun😉
How exciting! how did it go? To remove them i simply just file them off, any other way seems to hurt my nails haha
You can buy those same polishes for $3 on ebay.
Yeah if you want fake products.
Kimberly Seda not I brought allllll of my gel polishes from eBay and each one cost between 11-13 dollars
Nah I just get mine on nailalert.com they sell cheaper and Ive had better experience with their products never been scammed like ebay
Cindy Sweet I get mine for less than $2. And use it with the gelish top and bottom coat. They look amazing, always.
Gelish ? Absolutely not
Just order my nail kit & lamp. Thank u 4 the demo
I've just bought everything off eBay my lamp has arrived just waiting for the varnishes. Can you do a video on how you remove them. x Can't wait for mine to arrive. 😃
Can I use a normal nail polish with the gel base and top coat?
Yes, you can. =)
+Kimberly Seda great! Thank you x
yes but beware it can cause cracking sooner
I tried it once & it completely failed, I guess it just depends. Hopefully you'll have had better luck.
Yea I do all the time...my best tip is make sure your nail polish is COMPLETELY dry then works really well. 😊
love it! How do you like your UV light? I know it has been a while since this video. Is their one that you recommend now?
Maria Lovingood gelish or one from Walmart that is 14.00$$ really cheap those are both good ones depending on how much you are willing to spend your welcome glad I could help you out
@lmbeautyshines It's so fun ! Haha there is a bigger light where you can fit both hands but this one you can squeeze them in lol
ich weiß ich bin deutsch aber kleiner Tipp:
stell die Lacke/Gele von der Lampe weg sonst härten diese :()
don't mind the color coming off. it's fine she she said. No that's not fine that means it's not fully cured.
thank you SO MUCH for doing this tutorial! I'm totally ordering all of this !
I just bought gel nail polish the same to gel in this video, and i apply it on my nail the same way this video does. I appreciate it. But i wonder why it has been cracked at the next day?
Thanks for getting right to the tutorial 😄 unlike the annoying people that love themselves on camera
Hi there! I have tried that before and it is do-able! but i recommend letting it dry 10000000% before putting on the top coat, or else the wet nail polish will slide around under the dry gel top coat haha
Very helpful. Thank you
I’m watching in 2021💀
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for showing me
Does the gel damage your natrual nails?
Perfect! Thank You for sharing.
Hello, it looks like you have forgotten to remove the blue foil, from the uv light plate ;-)
Loved the video!
What alcohol did you use ? Ima try to do that because I have a blueque one from amazon and it leaves the sticky on top .
Do you have to use the same brand gel polish as the lamp or you can use what ever gel polish brand you want on any lamp ???
Yes you definantly can! :)
Thanks sis very much
Good tutorial 😀
Thank you so much for sharing with us
The glitter looked holo
Hi, my girl is really into this stuff and I wanted to ask you girls do you need always fake nail on top with UV of polish or it goes directly on nail? and if directly how you later clean it off?
It doesn't matter , most people put nails on so its longer
Wait, how do you get the sparkles to stick?
Really helpful!
What's the alcohol spray you use?
where do you purchase the base gel and top coat gel? please respond. i want to start doing gel nails :)
any 36 UV gel light is ok? im thinking about expensive salon brand but if a $36 dryer works fine then Ill do that.
dveron122 hey at Walmart there is a led light for 14$$$
My wife loves it tnx
My clear gelish dose not cure . Why is that ? I tried the uv light for 5 min
Isis Venta it does cure put it under the light for 2 min then wipe with rubbing alcohol and it won’t be sticky
which alcool do you use for the final step ?
My uv lamp is 9 watts, how long will I have to cure the nails?
vey helpful for beginners.
do you need a gel base coat before putting the gel color (black on your video)
Daniella Biersack, yes. It will protect your natural nails.
Great job! Thanks
Is this good for pedicures?
Did you use a file to take the oil of or was it a buffer ???
Cass Miles I think it was a file
How long do this last
hi does it matter if the base coat is not the same with the colors? i have an other product for base coat kai top coat and i have ordered this gelish colors?
It doesn't matter I've used different brands and it works fine
Incredible l like the nails
Iv seen uv lamps with the blue on mine hasnt got that is that ok will it still work lile it spoce to
The blue is a protective film on the base. (Like a film over a watch or phone when you first buy it.) It just peels off. It actually works better without it.
Thank you sooo much
Bagus nya 👍👍👍👍
what the name of that color black?
good job I love it
I tried China Gelaze last night on two friends under a 9watt UV lamp and we did the cuticles, top of nail filing, alcohol wash then
1.base coat (1min)
2.1St layer of color (1min)
3.2ND layer of color (1min)
4.Top coat (1min)
5. Alcohol wipe down
all while avoiding the edge of the cuticles and it didn't cure properly. On the 2ND friend did the same steps with increase of a minute on each step; yet at the last step again parts of the gel stayed on while parts of it completely came off. :( any suggestions?
I think pH bond should be applied first and then foundation.
Brenda Osornio try 30 second for top coat mine never crack and last three week. China gelaze has base coat in it already that why you don't need foundation I use a buff nail file that pink on one side black on the other and I also use a prep and clean dehydrator work like a charm for me.. ☺💅💐
Hay I am confused I read my. Book did what it say it not sticking at all
I paid £20 in my salon and it just looks like they've been painted and I was diappointed but they are glossy and mine only lasted for 1week and 2 days
im planning of buying those tomorrow but i did some research and found out that gel nail polish and ul light is dangerous or something? ?ia that true??
the polish is not going to hurt you or your nails, it is the UV ray light that can hurt you, it can cause skin cancer and wrinkles SO all u need to do is buy a UV led light, it's better and safer for u. just buy a light bulb not that expensive nail stuff, It will cost u around 5 to 6 dollars for the lightbulb
just how my nail lady used to do them..man i miss that woman! 😒
I did this & my polish peeled right off smh idk what I did wrong
Kamrie Donyé You probably did to thick of a coat check out nail career education how to apply gel polish like a pro video and she will help you out k
Here are some things you can do to prevent peeling.
1. Prep your nails properly. Push back all the cuticle and file the nail plate gently using downward strokes this makes sure the gel adhears on the nail better. Then use an alcohol prep and wipe away all the dust. You can make a prep by mixing 1:1 ration of alcohol and acetone.
Things to remember.
Gel won't stick to a shiny or oily nail surface.
Make sure you wash your hands to get rid of any oils from lotion or sunscreen before you do gel.
Do a thin base layer first and make sure it cures properly.
Chipping can occur also occur if you use thick coats. Do one coat first, let it cure, do another one. And then seal it with a gel topcoat and make sure you cap the free edge.
I am watching thi video 2021
Nice nails
My gelish base coat and top coat won't fully dry. Im using 36 v lamp. Nails are so sticky even after 2-4 minutes drying. What to do?????
You can use led products with a uv lamp but not uv polish with a led lamp ....
im using 36v UV lamp, not led
Same problem, what should I do? 😐
💜💜
what's the difference between using gel and nail polish?
Gel nail stays longer on your own nail and does not chip easily, PLUS more shinny and natural looking compare with regular nail polish.
Googling cuticle.

Lauren C. 10-15 min

Hi!!

Hi my name is Ariadne means princess of the stars but beautiful JOBB
what type of alcohol should I ask for when purchasing
rubbing alcohol you can find it at the dollar store a lot of the times.
+TheKrazysinner OK thanks
what can you use to remove the film other than alcohol?
Fiona Davies acetone. not acetone free nail polish remover
Olive oil

So sweet dreams of mocha xxxxxxxx
Are uv lamps dangerous to use?
Luka Crosszeria led is just a better choice, dries quicker and it doesn’t harm your skin like UV
@@alexsaucier6442 actually LED lamps are still UV, LED just refers to the bulbs used.
Nope not at the level they're at. But if you're worried you can just apply sun screen to your hands but be careful not to get any on your nails.
