DIY Gel Nails - how its done...

so first step (obviously after filing etc) the base coat (if you do want to add, essence does do a primer)







The peel off base coat, apply this thinly, if you apply too thick,when you cure your nails it has a bit of a burning sensation,also applying it thinly,it should last a bit longer - cure under your LED light, Essence sells a small one finger one with USB connection.  I did not see this working for me so bought this one:







The LED light was the most expensive, the jel pearls, nail colour, base and top coat ranges from R30 to R60 but the light was R500 odd, all bought from Dischem(www.dischem.co.za)

second step, add your normal colour polish and wait for it to dry,no LED light







add top coat, cure for 60 seconds and voila
