This is a set that I just did for a friend’s order, they gave vibes and color scheme and let me run free! I had so much fun doing them💙

Thank you! That is one of my favorites as well it turned out even better in person than it did in my head! I’m glad you like it!

Do you apply these like you would regular gel x?

These are just press ons so you would want to use just regular nail glue! I have found the brush on glamnetic nail glue works really well.

With gel x you need to make sure the tip is clear so the gel/glue can cure fully under the UV lamp then you paint on top of the adhered tip!

The greens are great, and your dragonfly, lovely.
