New gelnail design? You decide!

I was trying to come up with a new cool gelnail design, but I was kinda lost. I thought it'll be cool if you decided what my new design will be! :) Just let me know in a comment here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ1uX7qWYbg Thank you! xoxo

Quick and Easy After-Care

This video show you how to do a quick and easy nail after-care.

When you've done a new set of gel (or acrylic) nails, you're nails, cuticles and hands had to suffer quite a lot. A simple after-care is enough to give your nails and hands just what they need after a new set of nails.

Again, sorry for the zooming :).

Glam Leopard Gelnails

FINALLY, here it is.

My new gelnail tutorial called: Glam Leopard.

Here's the video:

And here are the steps:

1. prep 

Push back your cuticles and remove the dead tissue with your cuticlescraper. File (240grid) your nail in the shape you prefer and buff on top of the nail with a whiteblock. Then apply your prep, let it dry, and apply your primer around your cuticle area. 

Now apply your form (you can also do this before you apply your prep and primer).

Forms

2. Apply gel

Apply one thin coat of clear gel, clean up with your woodstick and cure for 2 minutes.

3. Natural pink gel

Now it's time to apply your natural pink gel. Build it nicely on your natural nail only and make sure you create a nice natural curve. Let the gel level for a couple of seconds, clean up around your cuticle area with a woodstick and cure for 2 minutes.

4. Build nail length

Now build your desired nail length with your clear gel. Make sure it fits right onto your natural nail.

5. Cure and pinch

Now cure your nails in the uvlight for 30 seconds and then remove it from the light. Now it's time to pinch the nail. Hold it for about 5-10 seconds and repeat this step (cure 30sec - pinch 10sec) for 2 to 3 times and then cure for another minute.

6. Remove form and file

Remove the tacky layer and then remove the form (I'm using my pinchingtool). Start filing the nails and make sure you're pleased with the way they look. I allways use my dustcollector so my workarea stays   dustfree and I won't breathe in too much dust. 

7. Apply glitter

Now it's time to apply your glitter. First apply some clear gel where you want your glitter to be (this doesn't have to be precise). Then tap on the glitter with a brush and let it fade out towards your cuticles. Then cure for 1 minute.

8. Apply clear gel

Apply the last coat of clear gel and make sure no glitter sticks out on the surface of the nail. Clean up with your woodstick and cure for 2 minutes.

9. File

Remove the tacky layer and file the nails. Make sure there aren't any bumps or ridges. I'm using an old 180grid and a 240grid file. When you're done filing remove the dust with your dustbrush and cleanser.

10. Acrylic paint

Mix your acrylic paint in the color you want. I'm using grey (mixed with black and white) and black paint. Apply the leopard print with a dotting tool. Let this dry!!!!! If the paint isn't completely dry and you apply your topcoat the whole design will be wiped out.

11. Rhinestones

(This step is not in the video)

Apply your diamondstones with a drop of nailart-glue and let it dry. I chose silver and black ones.

12.  Topcoat

Now apply your uv-topcoat. Apply it as a polish and let it cure in the uvlight (mine needs to be cured for 1 minute).

AND YOU'RE DONE!

I hope you liked this tutorial and you will try it yourself.
