Discussion/Question How can I make press ons look just a little better?

Thumbnail

60 Upvotes

Very very new at using press ons (this is my second set ever after the first popped off after three days) and I’m hoping to get them looking a little less “fake” if I can.

I’m using the kiss brush on nail glue, but it feels like even if I do a thin layer it comes out through the sides.

I’d also love any tips to make the area where the press on is closest to the cuticle (not sure what this is called, sorry!) look a little better and less like a harsh plastic line.

Constructive Criticism Welcome ✔️ Opinions?

Post image
40 Upvotes

New here👋 just finished this set up (milky white base gel, colored pencils and top coat!) wanted to get some feedback! This is my first time using colored pencils for nail art and I have to say, it’s SO MUCH EASIER!! Even when you mess up, a quick buff and you can erase!!

I did a beach theme, I really had no motivation for this but am trying to push through and practice!

Any advice is helpful!

(p.s. I know I have to shape them, was kind of in a little bit of a time crunch and figured since they’re for me and me alone, I’d shape them later when I go to put them on!)

Manicure [Constructive Criticism Welcome] First ever manicure as a woman in my 30s - builder gel. Not too thrilled. Are these any good?

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

This is my first ever manicure in my life as a woman in my 30s. I don’t like acrylic nails and my pinky and ringer finger nails grow upwards (ski slope?) so the tech recommended builder gel. I asked for tips to make them longer but she said that since my goal is to grow them out, then I shouldn’t do tips because she’ll have to cut my nails short. This is the end result. What I’m unhappy with is my right middle finger builder gel isn’t sitting close to the nail bed, the flower shape is meh compared to left middle finger, my both index finger shapes are so nice, but my ring and pinky fingernail shape make my hand look so fat. Are cuticles done okay? Since I have NO experience in this department I would like honest feedback. It cost $70 without tip. Is that reasonable for builder gel and polish and one flower/design?

Discussion/Question Is it bad…

I got a poly gel manicure with extensions yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve gotten my nails done as an adult, so I have nothing to compare it to, but they look off to me. I know I have short nail beds and you can only do so much with that but… idk. Am I being picky? It was like $80 after tip, and the salon has 5 star reviews across the board so I’m a little upset my nails don’t look like the rest of the pictures from the reviews.

If they are bad, can you tell me what is wrong about them so I can articulate to the salon why I want to get them redone? I’m really nervous about going back

Is there any way to fix this without a drill? i dont do nails myself but after this im going to look into it 🫩

A little late but still wanted to share because I think my nail tech did a good job! I’ve never gotten nail art before but this seemed like the right occasion to try it out.

Hi! It’s my 1’st time posting my nails here, I’ve been lurking and liking in the shadows for quite some time.

Finally feeling brave enough to post - these are my natural nails with builder gel (my pinky nail on the right hand broke right before I had time to do my nails 🙄) I didn’t have the energy to do nail art but kinda regretting that now, as I feel like this Milky White look is a lil boring.. 🥲
