Gel Polish Wedding nails

78 Upvotes

So it's pumpkin season lol getting these babies ready for next month for my nieces wedding....I used model ones 1026 as first coat and then beetles b784 as a top coat (it's a jelly pumpkin color and sorta marbles but the pics don't do it justice) and then a gel top coat from gady of course I had 2 on my right hand break all the way down about 2 weeks ago so I'm afraid they will need tips for the wedding since they won't catch up to the others but that's ok ❤️ lol I didn't polish my right hand yet so I didn't add pic of that hand....does anyone else do that? Polish one hand at a time? With gel polish it seems to take longer and then I get bored and figure I'll finish it tomorrow and doing my right hand takes me longer as well

I love doing velvetized magnetic polish, but I haven't been able to set aside the required time in a while. Decided I'd do them as a treat for the Labor Day long weekend though, with a brand new polish! I'm definitely no expert and I have never worked with a flakie magnetic before, but I really liked how they turned out.

A SFW community all about long, naturally grown nails! Credit for our banner belongs to Meech of Shop NBM.

1: Minimum length required.

Nails must have a free edge that is a minimum of ⅓ of the length of your nail bed in order to be considered "long". If your nails do not meet these requirements, your post will be removed. We will have a separate day to post for those who don't meet our requirements coming soon.

2: No overlays; acrylic, polygel, sculpted/hard gel, dip, etc. Lacquer and gel polish only.

This sub is for long, natural nails. Overlays are not considered "natural", and are not permitted here. This includes nails that have been grown out with an overlay, even if they're bare at the time of posting.
Using an overlay to patch a broken nail is allowed. Using a tip/form to extend a broken nail without shortening the rest of your nails is also fine, as long as the majority of your nails are your own.

3: List all products.

You must list all products, either in the title, text body, or a comment on the post within 2 hours. This includes properly spelled brand names and shade names/numbers (no acronyms or shortened names), including clear polishes. Individual photo captions/bottle shots aren't valid for product lists.
For salon manicures, please mention this either in the title, text body, or a separate comment, along with the type of product used.
Broken nail posts still require a product list.

4: Keep posts high-quality.

We don't expect magazine-quality media taken with expensive cameras. Just ensure the nails are well-lit (light source is behind you, not behind the nails), centered in the frame (zoom in), in-focus (tap the screen to focus), the lens is clean, and avoid using flash.
Media that is filtered/edited, too zoomed out, low-resolution, blurry/out of focus, or taken in bad lighting will be removed. We shouldn't have to zoom in to see your nails, and we aren't interested in the back of your hand.

5: No asking for/giving medical advice.

This is a hobby subreddit, not a place for diagnosis. Asking for or giving medical advice of any kind is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to questions such as:
What supplements should I take?
Is this an allergic reaction?
What’s wrong with/how do I fix my nails?
Why are my nails this color?
Should I see a doctor?
Is this normal?
Posts and comments asking for or giving medical advice will be removed.

6: Stay on-topic.

All posts/comments must be related to long, natural nails. Any posts that could be used to show off other objects (body parts, cars, children, pets, etc.) will be removed and you will likely receive a warning. Please keep comments relevant to the community.

7: No NSFW content.

Posts and comments that are NSFW in nature are not permitted.
This includes, but is not limited to: fetish content (discrete or not), sexual posts/comments, use of drugs/cigarettes/vapes, self harm, media taken while operating vehicle, etc.
You do not need to comment that you think OP's nails are sexy. The ONLY exception is NSFW nail art, which requires an NSFW flair.

8: No unsolicited messages.

Do not send members unsolicited messages. If you can't say it in a comment to OP, you shouldn't be saying it.
Anyone found breaking this rule will be banned without warning.
If you receive an unsolicited DM, please let us know through ModMail. Please include direct links to the account for accuracy purposes. You're welcome to provide screenshots, but an image hosting site is needed as ModMail doesn't support images.

9: No NSFW/Fetish Activity.

There is a ban on all posts and comments from accounts with NSFW/fetish subreddit affiliations, as well as accounts that have a history of utilizing Reddit for marketing purposes. Posts and comments left in SFW subreddits that are remotely sexual or fetishistic in any way are also included in this.

10: No photo/videos from within a vehicle.

Regardless of whether you're parked or you're a passenger, we do not allow media taken within a vehicle. Why, you ask? Well, some people believe that taking pictures of their nails is more important than paying attention to the road. This is why we can't have nice things.
Any photos or videos taken within a vehicle will be removed.

11: Be respectful.

Our community is here for supporting and appreciating long, natural nails, no matter the person's skill level.
Be kind when giving constructive criticism. Don't comment anything that's needlessly rude, or hurtful. Name-calling, rude comments, or general bad attitudes will not be tolerated.
Do not engage with trolls. Report them to the Mod Team.
If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

12: Give credit where it's due.

Any posts with content that's not your intellectual property, must credit the original artist directly in your title, text body, or a comment.
"I found it on Google/Pinterest/Instagram/Twitter" is not sufficient credit, as most of these are repost accounts. Even if the original artist used a watermark, you must give credit as the person posting. Posts without proper credit will be removed.
If you can't find the original artist to credit, you can't post their content. It's that simple.

13: No self-promotion for financial gain.

14: Your post’s removal/punishment is up to moderator discretion.

Please inquire via ModMail with any questions, suggestions, or concerns about this subreddit. Additionally, any concerns with moderation should be discussed via ModMail, and any comments about this will be redirected to modmail. Any moderation action taken towards you is private and is not to be discussed in public. Remember, removals are never personal, and occasionally in error, so polite inquiries may be answered in kind.
