This basic UV gel nail tutorial also cover how to pinch a gel nail and how to create some very simple but effective freehand flower outlines, if you are not confident enough to start pinching you could skip this stage,

This nail has a nice elegant transparent glitter covered free edge that would be perfect for weddings for the bride or bridesmaids and because it does not have a perfect smile line it is ideal for beginners or if your doing your own nails.

  • Hello! Do you use a usual top coat gel when you finish acrylic design or the other one that has a sticky residue after curing and needs to be wiped? 'Cause I've heard that if you use the first one it can cause cracking of that acrylic paint underneath 'cause it's not flexible enough. I'm not a professional in this business, that's why I ask you this but I'm learning and one day I hope I'll be as good as you are :) Greetings from Croatia! :)

  • @TheJosipa82 Hi, It is a Gel top coat with a dry finish so it does not leave a sticky residue, it is more flexible than builder gel but not flexible enough to use directly over natural nails, only over gel or acrylic etc.

  • do you have to have a uv light, or is possible to dry it without it?

  • Wow! you are AMAZING! I love it<3 Greetings from Norway!

  • @naiouk When did you apply the primer to fix the gel? do you know that if you don't apply something to fix gel (prime) next day nails will pop of? and you glue a full nail instead of a tip? If you use a full nail for what is the gel?

  • I would love to see more of gel nail designs as i think gel looks fab :)

  • love your work! more gel nails please :)

  • What products do you use? I love how they look at the end.

  • Hello, very beautiful work! I'm very impressed by all of your videos. I'm more acquainted with acrylics than gels but wish to do more gel work as well. Did you use a bonder or primer before you began your process? If yes or no, please explain why. Thanks a bunch. <3
