REVIEW OF NAILUV GEL NAIL SYSTEM & LED HEART CURING LAMP---SO KAWAII :: DIY HOW TO GEL NAILS AT HOME ♥

Hi cuties ♥ 


I am a huge nail & nail art fan, always have been and always will be. Nails have definitely stepped into the media spotlight in the past few years. Magazines like Cosmopolitan & Marie Claire almost always have articles on nail art, etc. 

One of the biggest trends in the nail game has been gel nails. It has been a game changer. Having a shiny manicure that lasts way longer than traditional polish & doesn't even chip?, what more could you ask for? 

It has been happening for well over 5 years now but I have seen it  become even more prominent in the past 2 years (every brand is making a gel polish line!). It has become a staple in how we do nails. People no longer want basic manicures, they want gel manicures. 

I have tried many different brands at the salon and now at home! Here is my current at home system that I absolutely love!





Here is my Nailuv system ♥
