I’m SO excited about this video because I am finally showing you guys how I do my own gel nails at home!
About a year ago I decided I was totally OVER paying $30ish every time I wanted gel nails. Confession - I’m pretty picky about my nails. I pretty much gave up on regular polish because WITHOUT FAIL I would smudge or chip my polish within an hour. I found out about gel nails (aka shellac aka gel polish) and never went back. If you don’t know about it, basically it is like regular nail polish, only you cure it under an LED or UV light and the polish hardens, and lasts for 1-3 weeks. WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY PEOPLE. Up until fairly recently you had to go to a salon to get it done, but now the supplies are so affordable there’s really no reason to do that anymore! Thus I bring you my DIY gel nail tutorial…
For all of the steps and supplies, watch the video HERE!
Luckily the awesome people at Vanity Planet (you know, they make my favorite spin brush) gave me a coupon code to give you guys to get the LED light I use for $30! Honestly doing your own gel nails pays for itself after like 5 times.

Just any gel polish will work! I use the Gelish brand but there are lots out there. Just make sure they have a foundation, color, and top coat system and they’ll work with the light.
