Nails For The Week!

Not sure if I selected the correct flair, but I just received these from Etsy and could NOT wait to put them on!! They even match my Tamagotchi, lol.

Thanks for looking!

Need help making nails look thicker after painted.

If this is the wrong place to post, please let me know I will remove. I don’t know where to ask.

I recently bought nail tips to make my own press ons at home. They are thin for a purpose, but I am clueless on how to make them look thicker after painted. I was looking at maybe getting apres builder gel but I don’t know if that is the correct product.

The pictures here are the tips I got, the green nails is the one I painted and use regular gel top coat. The nude nail is from The Only Nail, which is how I want mine to look.

Thinking about switching from salon nails to pressons

I've been getting salon nails for years, but I'm trying to save money because the appointments add up fast.

I'm thinking about switching to press-ons again. I tried them years ago and they only lasted a couple of days. Have they gotten better? I like medium to long coffin nails, and I'm pretty rough on my hands. How long do yours actually last?

Press-on nails are really underrated

I just started doing my own press-on nails and I genuinely don't know why I waited so long. I used to think getting my nails done at a salon was the only way to have them looking consistently nice, but doing them at home has been such a game changer.

I love being able to choose a new color or design whenever I want without booking an appointment, driving somewhere, and spending hours at the salon. They're also so much more affordable, especially when you like switching up your nails regularly.

Another thing I didn't expect to enjoy so much is how convenient they are. Once you get your prep and application routine down, you can have a fresh set at home while watching a show or doing something else.

For anyone who uses press ons regularly, what are your favorite brands or styles? I'm always looking for new ones to try lol

Press ons with sticky tabs

Dear Nail connoisseurs.

I have super frail nails, and therefore have completely dropped regular nail polish / gels, as my nails will deteriorate pretty fast and start flaking horizontally 🥲 bur I am considering trying press ons with sticky tabs (not glue! I am afraid it will result in the same broken nails)

What are your go to options for this?

What’s causing these cracks?

I’m super new to press ons. I’ve been wearing these 6 days and there’s no lifting, but these cracks have formed.

The first one I noticed I didn’t picture because it was in a location that made sense - on my thumb on the side in line with the apex. And while I understand the sides are sensitive points for nails, how far down these are doesn’t make sense to me. They’re clear nails I got online for customization for cheap, so I figure that may be a part of it. I also filed down the edges (as in on the surface) to help with thickness. So that may be it too. Again there’s no lifting and while the first and biggest one absolutely cracked my nail under it too (I can see it, not feel it) none of these seem like it would be possible without causing me pain. Any insight is appreciated!
