GelX Nails

I recently started teaching myself how to do GelX Nails & I’m so excited about learning 💅🏾 #nailinspo #Lemon8Diary #beautyfinds #dayinmylife #gelx #gelxnails #gelnailsathome

2024/1/16 Edited to

GelX nails are quickly becoming a popular choice for nail enthusiasts thanks to their durability and the stunning effects they create. Unlike traditional acrylics, GelX nails use a soft gel technology that helps in achieving a look that’s both natural and beautifully intricate. If you’re new to GelX nails, it’s essential to understand the supplies required, such as high-quality gel polishes and application tools. For those interested in winter nail trends, think cool tones, glitter accents, and elegant designs that resonate with the season’s charm. Using shades like icy blues, muted grays, and deep purples can create a perfect winter aesthetic for your nails. Additionally, consider exploring nail art techniques such as ombre effects, geometric shapes, or even incorporating holiday-themed decals to diversify your GelX creations. As you embark on your GelX nail journey, remember that practice makes perfect. Don’t hesitate to experiment with colors and styles, and find inspiration from nail art communities online. Following hashtags like #gelnailsathome and #beautyfinds can provide you with endless ideas to enhance your nail art projects. With patience and creativity, you’ll be able to master GelX nails in no time!

So this is part 2 of my gel X nails journey 😅

Overall, I’m so happy with my work, but the only struggle I had was to make this 3D art — I spent so much time doing it, and in the end, the top coat ruined the whole thing 🤦🏻‍♀️ In conclusion, I’ll continue doing it and see how long will it last… or how long did I last for all this 😆 #gelxn
