    I have been addicted to purple nails lately. All different shades of purple. I think Beetles makes some really good gel polishes, and for the price you can't go wrong. They are very pigmented, and they glide on so nice. These nails turned out really nice.

    I’m a mom who never gets my nails done and rarely even paints them but I have 5 daughters and they’re getting older and wanting to get theirs done. It’s not always in the budget so I’m determined to watch enough videos and practice until I can do them myself when a salon isn’t possible.

  • @bluebayeux
    @bluebayeux ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you prep & paint them before you apply? Or is there a downside to that? Just bought the kit but I haven't had my first go yet. Great video & beautiful colors & design! Your vid was not only informative but I love the close-up camera angles. Super easy to follow, thank you 😊

    • @elizabethslattery680
      @elizabethslattery680 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No, I don't think that would work. The glue gel in this kit that adheres the nail extension to your nail is cured by the light. That is why the extension is clear. I don't think it would cure well if it was painted before being put on, because the light can't get through the paint. If you wanted to paint your tips before attaching them, you could probably do that, but would need to use something like press on tabs, or regular nail glue that isn't cured by light. I hope that makes sense. Best of luck!

  • @fortmacmom3122
