These are my own nails underneath but I’ve used the gel nail strips that you cure with a uv light off Amazon . I’m too impatient to wait for coats to dry so these are perfect for me and they protect my nails while I’m at work and they’re so easy to get off with oil .

You’ve won the thread. These are stunning. Can I be cheeky and ask what you paid? At my place I think it would be £55.

They were £60 so not bad! Took 4 hours though 🤣🤣

I want my nails doing, just painting in a nice dark red, can I find anywhere that will do them...can I buggery.

I don't want gel, acrylics, BIAB or anything else that requires a uv lamp, just a bog standard nail varnish Sad

I don't get mine done but did my own the other day.

I find Essie polish is by far the best for application, drying fairly quickly - with a Rimmel Gel style top coat it lasts pretty well too.

I’ve used these. I found if you do them just before you go to bed (during the day you’ll need to wash you hands ) they cure really well.

the key is making sure your nails are very clean before you start and I always did maximum time under lamp.

my mum used these to protect her nail grow out when Vit b2 deficiency wrecked them.

The main reason I’m back on salon nails is i prefer the extra strength and frankly they’re like handy tools on your finger tips!
