If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter you’ve probably seen me continue to rant and rave about my at home gel manis. It wasn’t until this past Sunday while I was sitting in my new apartment with no internet access that I just realized that I haven’t put much on here. Well that’s changing today.
I’ve done a few mani since that first post and I absolutely love them! I’ve worn them for an average of a week, though I ‘m sure that I could’ve worn them longer if I didn’t get bored with the colors so quickly. I get a bit of tipwear, but that’s to be expected since I type so friggin hard at work. They look and feel like gel mani and dry really quickly! I’m talking 10 minutes after I’m finished painting both hands they’re dry!
I’ve told just about everyone who’s complimented me on them about the method a lot of people have tried it. One co-worker of mine told me that it didn’t work for her, but for the most part everyone’s liked it.
A big concern of mine was the removal process. Taking off salon gel manis was hell for me and I seriously hoped it wouldn’t be the same for these…and I’m happy to say that it wasn’t/isn’t. It takes 2-3 cotton balls and a bit of acetone, pure acetone, and the polish comes right off like it would if I used nail polish remover on a regular manicure. I love it!
Here are some pictures of the manis I’ve done.

I love them….I was thinking of taking my solars off – and have tried the gel nails…but they never last two weeks and that was kinda of expensive going to the salon. I like have color….love the orange and pinks ones you did. What brand is it??

You can do gel manis with regular polish? Or are these different manis? Either way, I love all three colors!
