Tutorial: Applying Drugstore Gel Nails Kit

[darlenei2]

I purchased the broadway real life brush on gel nail kit, when you started to apply the gel I followed exactly what you did, and IT WORKED ON ME TOO!! hahhahahha

you are a good teacher thank you so much for putting this video on youtube. My nails grow by themselves but they are paper thin so I just put the gel over them to strengthen my natural nails. I watched alot of videos on how to do these and yours is by far the best.

Thank you again and God bless

how long did these last?

This brand of brush on gel kit was the first one i ever used, Cosmar, at my local CVS. I personally like it due to its ease, price and how fast it is. I get alot of uses or applications out of the products before the actual gel activator gets sorta thick & yucky. I also use a variety of other tips that i get from my local BS or from Ebay! Ebay sells big lots of predesigned nail tips @ very low low prices.

question. now I used fake glue on nails for about 3 or 4 months like one right after another..does it not tear up your real nails because you always have them on? Granted you said yours last like 3 weeks before they fall off and mine will last maybe a week and a half at most.

I love your nail tutorials. I have your one nail tutorial in my favs. I have the worst nails. They are weak and thin. I have been using fake nails for a while ever since you taught me how to apply them properly so they stay on. I've got to try these! Let us know how you like them. :)

@shesexquisite Awww thank you. It is so hard for me to do nail tutorials. Wish I would win the lottery so I could invest in a dcent camera with a good tripod and better lighting then I would be set...LOL. Thanks so much for your support!

[MissVeronyka]

awesome tutorial I might have to try them :) I always have a problem though with air bubbles :( how can I prevent that?

[MissVeronyka]

@MelissaLuvsMakeup82 Bascially the way I do mine is I put the nail on from the base of my fingernail first and press down towards the tip of my finger. Once you push down on the fake nail to bind it to your natural nail do not let up! Keep it pressed until it is really glued down or you risk getting air bubbles...most of the time that works for me but I do still get air bubbles from time to time.

[MissVeronyka]

You can buy just the gel products by themselves, too. I buy it to overlay my natural nails for extra strength. You're right, the gel doesn't last that long, and gets REALLY goopy after a bit.  But you've inspired me to try the kit with the tips, I've always been afraid that I wouldn't be able to get them smooth enough!!!

[MissVeronyka]

@QponCutie Really?? Cool...where do you get just the gel products? Drugstores??

[QponCutie]

@MissVeronyka Yep! At my Rite Aid, they're right in the same area with the full kits.

i have extremely small nail beds, but ive been trying to grow out my nails. there not extremely long, but do you think that the gel nails would stick better if my nails are a little longer, or should i cut them first? im deff trying these!

[MissVeronyka]

@haybay29 I would not put these on if you have long nails...I would either cut your real nails down or just use the gel from this set and apply the gel over your natural nails..it would make them stronger and you would be able to still keep your natural long nails :)

[haybay29]

@MissVeronyka ohhhh good idea! thanks sooo much:D

[Airkitten2001]

[MissVeronyka]
