You've heard of the "lady with a million cats" right? Well I think I am turning into the "girl with a million gel nail polishes". Truth be told, I've been looking for a gel polish that can be my everyday color. I saw swatches of this one by EZ Flow, and purchased it. You all know how much I love the TruGels by EZ Flow. This shade, Extraordinary Spectacle, is a pale pink that is universally flattering. Wear time is amazing as well!

I am so excited to be sharing this tutorial with you all. You all know that I do my own gel manicures at home. This is because salon prices are ridiculous and I just enjoy doing things myself. I have been asked to share how I do my nails at home and today I have! I hope the video is clear and informative enough. All products will be below!

Today I will be sharing with you guys my favorite gel polish. Now if you did not know, I like to do my nails at home. I learned to do gel manicures at home because the salon charges too flipping much, $35 for a manicure? Come on now. So I garnered all the supplies needed to complete the task at home. I looked around for the best and cost effective gel brand out there, because if you don't really dig around, you will end up spending an arm and a leg on a gel kit. So I found the EZ Flow TruGel Polishes. These are really inexpensive, at around $7 a bottle on Amazon. EZ Flow isn't a really popular brand so I was skeptical. I at first bought the gel top coat and it worked really well on top of regular nail polish. So I recently ventured out and got a gel color and base coat. I applied and tested this system for 2 weeks, to see how it held up. Below are my results. 

Today I will be sharing with you, my methods on how I remove gel nail Polish. On my youtube channel, I have had a few successful gel manicure how-to videos, and I wanted to accompany them with how to remove the gel polish. Now the gel that I use on my nails, is a UV/Led activated gel and it is a soak-off gel. That means it can be easily removed with acetone. I use the EZ Flow TruGel Gel Top Coat. When I run out of acetone, I can file off my gel polish. In the video below I show you how I soak off and file off the polish. The filing method is great for gel polish that is not the soak off variety. I used my Nail Drill that I purchased on Amazon (link below) for filing, but a regular nail file can be used though it would take a much longer time. So I hope you all find the video helpful! All products that I used can be found below the video.

Hi everyone! Today I come to you with a nail tutorial. I recently purchased a uv gel lamp and a uv gel top coat. I gave my self a gel manicure using my new items and I was so pleased, I decides to show you all the process. Now I decided to use a UV gel top coat over regular nail polish for 2 reasons. One reason being the price of a gel manicure is ridiculous. I've seen kits starting from $30. I am not ready to shell out that much money for 3 bottles of nail polish. The next reason is the UV exposure that comes with a full gel manicure. When you use a gel base coat, polish, and top coat you have to go under the uv multiple times for more than 3 minutes at a time. I am a bit iffy about using the uv light for more than 4 minutes on each hand in fear of uv exposure, which could lead to skin cancer. So I hope that this tutorial is helpful to you any of you who want the quality of a gel mani, without the hassle!
