I love doing my own nails at home using glue-on nails and gel polish! I had a few other ideas but after talking to my friends, they helped me choose this first inspo pic I found on Pinterest. These might be one of the best sets I've ever done on myself, they came out so cute and I'm in

#lemon8dairy I am so pleased with my nails. 💅 He snapped and did his thing 🥰. I went from square, which I’ve had forever, and decided to get them shaped to the short stiletto. Needed them to stay short cause I’m a gym girlie lol and a Mom and clumsy 🫠🤫🥴 don’t need to be scratching the kiddos 🤣

Let get into these nails 😍 I was shocked at how similar they looked😍. She really did her thing on these!! We made a few changes like the color and nail shape but I’m absolutely obsessed with the outcome! The picture doesn’t show the color exactly but it is much darker in person. What do you
