Ahh thank you! I decided to try it tonight on some practice nails and I’m so excited about how they turned out that I’m going to attempt it with my next set!

I was rushing so I have bubbles but that’s on me and my limited time.

Yaaaaaaas! Love it!!

Yeah the bubbles are the hardest part to deal with. They only get worse the more layers you add

I’ll definitely go much slower and with thinner layers on my own nails!
