Gell/Shellack Nails

[12:02pm] Hello everyone (: So in a bit I'm going to go get my nails done with my mom, and we're going to be trying out the much hyped "gel" or "shellack" nails! These aren't like acrylics where they're gluing on a piece of fake nail or anything, these are just on your own nail, yet they look great and last long.

What they claim:
-Long Wearing & Long Lasting (2-3 Weeks)
-Help Keep Your Nails Strong
-Does Not Chip Like Regular Nail Polish
-Easy To Remove

Negativities that I've heard of:
-Not A Big Colour Selection
[However! You could just use the UV base coat, then apply your own regular nail polish colour, and then use the UV top coat, and it'll have the same similar effect of gel nails! Perhaps not as long wearing, but still great!]

[5:14pm] So I am finally home to blog about my nails! I'm extremely happy with the turn out! It did take a bit of time, but its only a tad bit longer then regular nails.. the best part? Its all dried and you can do anything you want as soon as they're done with you!

So that is what they look like, they feel really good and its suppose to last a while! I really hope they last for prom! Perhaps I'll get them redone for the special occasion, but if not these would be quite useful. I wasn't too bold, and so I did a cute shimmery pink colour by OPI, I wish I wrote down what colour this was, but sadly I did not, and so I can not share it with you guys!

If this doesn't last or I don't like it, I'll be sure to update on that, but so far I really like gel nails, and from all my friends who have done these, they have loved it the same!

Thank you for reading!
xoxo,
Shannon :]
