Best gel X kit

[@TonjaWatts]

Nicely done. Just a heads up, Gel X is a trademarked products from Apres. Not an application technique or service. This is a full cover gel tip application.

[@watchmeworkk299]

Thank you for clearing this up! I was super confused when seeing a video that would say GelX but no products used had the name included so I was like wait, what is GelX then??! Lol

[@amazingme894]

You’re the only person Ive seen that actually clarified this, i was so confused for months.

[@TinaThatsMi]

I actually didn't know this!! I thought it was an application technique similar to the *ACTUAL APRES GEL X* system and that was why everyone called it Gel X because its similar to the original system but not said system. This is the first time I've seen someone point this out. Interesting…🤔🤷🏾‍♀️

[@saywhat23]

👏🏻 , and polygel is not the name of a technique as well, it's actually the name of the product! HYBRID GEL, is the actual name of what everyone calls "polygel"

[@TonjaWatts]

[@shannonwhitfield8943]

I have been learning to do my own nails since prices have basically tripled in my area. I remember when a full set was $40 and fill ins were $15-$20. I could get a full set and pedi for $80. My husband and I have been talking about me going back to school to learn to do nails professional so I can get my certificate. He said he will make me a nail salon at our house. I think I am going to take him up on his offer. Thank you for sharing your work with us!

[@jessicab.2088]

Right! 70 for basic long nails plus tip is ridiculous

[@angelamarie727]

Where I'm at full set was 25 and now over 100 not with a tip.. I do my own acrylic now..

[@shannonwhitfield8943]

It is ridiculous!!!! What is your opinion on gel x nails??? I have been wanting try them however the allergic reactions people have been having scares me. Has anyone tried the Sistaco nail polish??? I want to try it but it is expensive, but all the reviews talk about how easy it is and how others love it….,

[@angelamarie727]

@shannonwhitfield8943 I didn't like gel x when I tried them. I just taught myself to do acrylic. They last much longer. Everyone is different tho. If u do acrylic I suggest using kiara sky cause they are hema free which prevents allergic reactions!!! I think they also have a full cover tip line with a bunch of options! I've heard of sistaco but I've never tried them just cause the prices really.

[@betsylang9607]

@shannonwhitfield8943 & All We should boycott them & look for cheaper places, they are just trying to get over. It's horrible, they over charged my friend & she called them out on it, then they lowered the price.. You always have to ask first, how much, so they don't scam & that's basically what they're doing scamming. They're not in Hollywood. People really have too start speaking up to them ! ! ! They will start losing business. Will you be charging decent prices ? 🙂 You'll get All their business ! 👍🕊️🗽🎉 Best wishes to you ! ! ! Go for it ! ! !

[@Arffff03]

In cosmotology school text book, I saw you should not apply primer to tip as it can make the tip more brittle and prone to breaking. In other scenarios, it can melt or discolor the tip

[@TonjaWatts]

The primer she uses is specifically for tips. It chemically etches them. Instead of buffing with an efile. These are made out of gel, not plastic like other tips, so they will react differently to different solvents.

[@thatshitcrayable]

Thank you both!! For this information 🎉❤

[@Star-fk2me]

That is good to know

[@Isissa125]

When I used beetles I would etch them manually (coarse grit file) rather than chemically etch because I'm a cheapskate 😅

[@harribo7065]

I would suggest to purchase a brand that is HEMA free though as if you are a beginner there is more chance of you making contact with your skin while learning how to apply these products. If you pick a HEMA free product and you touch you skin accidentally there is less chance of developing allergy!

[@dianagabriela3287]

Any suggestions as to which ?

[@yamiletsoler3464]

​​@@dianagabriela3287just search for hema free or hypoallergenic gel nail polish and it will appear some options.

[@444Buddha]

KZbin, the girl who used Hema and now has an allergic reaction to acrylic which is an almost everything just because she used gel X nails

[@RealMexFoodShouldntGiveUDrrhea]

This is what I was about to say. Most if not all the beetles products have HEMA.

[@harribo7065]

@@dianagabriela3287 venalisa does a good hema free range and it's really affordable

[@MariBercel]

Just bought this brand kit can't wait 😁

[@Heypookies416]

I have these exact kits and a bunch of other gel nail things bc I want to become a nail tech so bad ❤

[@rebeccalazzell5262]

In my experience with full cover tips, applying the glue gel to the nails and NOT curing works way better and it helps eliminate air bubbles which helps adhesion

[@Mommy_Moss]

Girl no this will make you allergic it’s extremely dangerous

[@notanotherfuckingnikki]

​@@Mommy_Moss she means a slip layer on the natural nail and then applying the tip and then curing instead of putting the gel on the tip. It's getting cured but just not immediately instead a half a minute later after the tip is on..(if you'd work with hard gel you'd understand what it is, you don't use a base coat and cure it for builder/hard gel, but rather you apply a very very thin "slip layer" where you want the gel to go and then build your first layer and only then do you cure. It's like a base without curing because hard gel bonds to gel so well) imo experience when it comes to full cover tips the best results are when you do both a slip layer and a dab on the tip if you're using thin glue gel but for the ultimate use a thicker formula or a solid - you can't go wrong with the solid or you can use polygel or builder gel imo those are the best for beginners especially and the great part is you can use whatever color you'd like for your background or even do a marble or design with the poly or colored builder gel. It makes everything much easier

[@lauram4168]

​@Mommy_Moss she probably meant to brush the glue and then apply the nail and cure

[@wisdomfromprystinetheempress]

Just please give proper advices I am kind of tired seeing something & then next second backed up with facts that's actually dangerous! Just put out proper, safe, professional advice for beginners please! Seriously 😒😳💯

[@LJ.ismeeee]

These vids make it look so easy I can’t

[@Glamour_Grace_Makeup]

I use a big lamp just fine to cure my nails and I don't have problems with bubbles. Just lay your lamp on its side that's flat. Normally the side of where hand goes in for curing is the side to stand the lamp up. Been doing this for years just fine 🎉🎉😀 No problems! Enjoy and save money 🤑💰. No need to go buy a small flash curing lamp!

[@rm.makes.me.smile_]

Wouldn’t that be exposing more of your skin to UV light tho? Unless you face it away from your body/face

[@Glamour_Grace_Makeup]

@@rm.makes.me.smile_ Yeah you have to face it away from you of course or use one of the gloves that people have nowadays for gel manicures that covers your entire hand besides your nails.

[@CallmeQuayZ]

My brain isn’t processing this lol some lamps are curved. The only flat side is the way it is

[@Glamour_Grace_Makeup]

@@CallmeQuayZ my lamps are curved too and this is how I use my lamps. It's really not that hard. Just flip it in the side that's flate and it lays perfect by standing it up this way. Look it up on KZbin since you seem to be on here. I'm sure someone else can explain to you what I'm talking about if you can just look it up yourself. There's many ways to use your LED lamps. This is how I figured out how to use mine in different ways because I found it on KZbin years ago. I thought it was a pretty smart idea especially with people that can't afford buying different lamps all the time. Have a wonderful day! ✌🏽🌼😁

[@tothemoonandback8571]

Can you do a video showing us how you get that PERFECT shape on your nails. I just can’t get that beautiful tip shape and no way can I get them all to match like yours do. They look stunning!! I have problems getting the nails pointing straight when doing my own, if I file with my fingers bent pointing towards me once I straighten my hand out the nails end up being files pointing to one side! I just can’t find a way to file them so that I know the point of the nail is pointing straight. I hope this makes sense!! 😊

If they are cured properly under the light then no they should be very sturdy as the light cures them to your nail.

I use a big lamp, I turn it so it stands on its side with the lights pointing at me. And then as I hold the nail, I just hold my hand next to the lights. The little sensor senses my hand and turns on. I don’t stare into the lights though, that hurts. I just wait a few seconds and boom. Done. No need for a tiny light.
