How I did my nails

I am so proud of how these turned out! #Lemon8Diary

2024/2/5 Edited to

Achieving the perfect Valentine's Day nails can be an exciting challenge! Start your nail art journey by prepping your nails with a good base coat to protect them. Choose a vibrant red or pink nail polish as your primary color, and consider adding heart designs using nail art brushes or dotting tools. For added flair, incorporate glitter or rhinestones for a festive touch. Don't forget to seal your masterpiece with a top coat to ensure lasting shine and durability. If you're looking for inspiration, check out trending designs on social media platforms and nail art blogs. Always remember, practice makes perfect, so don’t hesitate to experiment with different styles and colors. Share your unique creations and tips within the Lemon8 community to inspire fellow nail art enthusiasts!

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

✨ Strong, Long, NATURAL Nails Are Possible 💅

Before 2022 I was not the girl known for long nails. I would grow them out a little and they would break. They were thin, brittle, and bendy, and I’d end up giving up and cutting them short. I used to layer on nail strengtheners thinking that was the answer. The truth is those products only prot

How to create swirl textured nails • Paint your gel, and cure. • Next paint matte top coat, and cure. • Next paint your design but do not cure. I did each nail one at a time so the gel didn’t spread. • You will pour the powder over the entire nail, and then cure it. • Brush off the dust, and

How did I do?? I didn't want to do a light purple base so I went with more of a shimmery purple. I don't do many designs on nails, or fake nails in general but I do like giving myself gel nails! #spookyseasonnails #spookynails #NailArt #spookynails🎃💀 #nails
