Nail w/me as a beginner nail tech!!

*Punk Princess Edition*

Today I used poly gel to build the nail (which I'm still learning how to master) and tried challenging my liner work with the hand drawn stars (which took me out btw ;p)

Stick around and lets be friends!!! :)) 💌 Brand: beetles polish & modelones poly gel

A hand holds four small pink-capped bottles of a hypo-allergenic nail glue, with text overlay 'The Best Glue For Press Ons'. The glue is described as long-lasting and mess-free.
A text message conversation shows a friend's review, expressing surprise at the nail glue's strength and longevity, having worn press-ons for over a month with multiple color changes.
A bottle of professional nail bond is shown on a wooden surface. The text states that this previously posted glue is strong but too much work for the user.
GO STOCK UP ON THIS NAIL GLUE
So quite a few posts ago, I posted the nail glue in the third slide and it’s really strong but I honestly wouldn’t buy it again. It’s the brush and I’m left handed so it was a little struggle there and it left some kind of residue on my nails 😭 that’s what I get for not sticking to the script.
