Our Opinion


As the staff of the parent game, we may spend most of our time wrangling kids, but that doesn’t mean we don’t like to treat ourselves every now and then. And what better way to pamper ourselves than with a fresh set of nails? We’re talking about Gel X nails, baby – the latest nail trend that’s taking the beauty world by storm.

Now, we know what you’re thinking. Gel X nails sound intimidating, right? Wrong! With our simple Gel X nail tutorial, you’ll be able to do Gel X like a pro in no time. So grab your favorite nail polish (we’re loving a classic red for this tutorial) and let’s get started.

Step 1: Prep those nails
First things first, you’re going to want to make sure your nails are clean and prepped for the Gel X application. This means removing any old polish, pushing back your cuticles, and shaping your nails to your desired length.

Step 2: Apply the Gel X tips
Now it’s time to apply the Gel X tips. Start by sizing them to fit your nail bed and then gently buff the surface of your nail to create a good base for the tips to adhere to. Apply a small drop of nail glue to the tip and press it onto your nail, making sure it’s centered and secure.

Step 3: Trim and shape
Once your Gel X tips are applied, it’s time to trim and shape them to your liking. Use a nail clipper to trim any excess length and a nail file to shape the tips into your desired shape (we’re partial to a classic almond shape).

Step 4: Apply the gel polish
Now it’s time for the fun part – the gel polish! Apply a thin layer of your favorite gel polish to your nails, making sure to cap the free edge to seal in the color. Cure your nails under a UV or LED lamp for the recommended amount of time.

Step 5: Finish with a top coat
To seal in your Gel X nails and add some extra shine, finish off your manicure with a top coat. Apply a thin layer of top coat to each nail and cure them under the lamp for the final time.

And there you have it – you’ve just done Gel X like a pro! Now sit back, relax, and admire your handiwork. You deserve it, mama. And hey, who says you can’t do Gel X while simultaneously keeping an eye on your little ones? Multi-tasking at its finest.
