Step by step guide to achieving a salon look manicure at home

Professional Nails at home

 

This post will focus on how you can get quality salon level gel nails at home without making expensive trips to the nail salon or needing to use a uv lamp. I will take you through a simple step by step process to achieve that expensive salon look yourself for less hassle and at a great price. Doing it yourself is a lot cheaper than going to a salon every week and getting your nails done or getting new fake ones we can’t all be like kylie Jenner and live her life of luxury. But we can achieve our own levels of luxury ourselves without breaking the bank so that’s a plus in my book.

To achieve the best salon look at home I will be using my favourite nail brand Nails Inc. London. Their gel effect plumping polish collection to achieve the salon look no UV light needed.

This is my nails before the manicure. In desperate need of a polish in case you didn’t notice.

Step 1

Apply a base coat to the nails to condition and strengthen them. This treatment can also be used alone on its own to add a touch of natural shine to your nails without the colour if you wish.

As you can see the base conditions the nails and gives them a nice sleek finish.











I’m using nails Inc. London – Kensington caviar base coat polish buy from www.nailsinc.com pack of two base coat and top coat for 25 euros.

 

Step 2

Apply the colour you want on top of the dried base coat. I’ve found it best to apply the colour twice just to lock in the colour and help it to last longer but you don’t have to do that if you don’t want to. It all depends on your personal preference and finding what works best for you.

I’ve chosen nails Inc. London Bond Street. A lovely purple shade because I’m a total purple girl.

Step 3

Apply the top coat to condition your nails and to lock in the colour so that it lasts longer. I’ve found that the nails Inc. London 3 step system can last for up to 5 days depending on your lifestyle and other circumstances.

For the top coat I’m using nails Inc. London Kensington caviar 45 second speed dry conditioning top coat.

It dried really fast and makes the manicure process much easier and quicker as well as making your nails look awesome which every girl wants.

So there you have it. The perfect gel nails salon look you can do yourself at home. Get great nails for a lot less than regular trips to the salon. Of course all girls need a little treat now and then maybe we can get a facial instead.
