Did these on my friend today! They let me have creative freedom on this set. Something about them screams witchy 90s movies to me.

The green cateye under 3D gel is my favorite nail

I did the blue set on my friend last night and was very very sad at the turn out :( too thick, couldn’t figure out the builder gel, everything felt hard to do. But today’s set on another friend turned out so good (granted it was tips so already so much easier)!!!! I think it’s the polish brand that made a difference, beetles vs GAOY. What are other good brands I could get in the $6-12 a bottle range????

I’ve been doing my nails for years and I’ve hit somewhat of a block with my growth, does anyone have any pointers so I can get these stars to look crisper? My hands have somewhat of a tremor so they always turn out shaky. Any advice would be welcome!

‼️⚠️ PROP/PLAY MONEY WAS USED FOR THIS SET ⚠️‼️

💰 I did these nails yesterday for maiya the don song TEN 🔟 (im literally obsessed with the song)

💰 I did not encapsulate the fake money with acrylic, polygel, or hard gel i usually don’t when im just showcasing or practicing nail art designs only

💰 Let me know what you think
