It might sound like I'm dumb , but I'm very clueless about gel nails. Like what's so different about them fromr regular nails. And also what makes them so easy. I don't know what it is , but I'm starting to get obsessed with nails. But need some baby history about them. Like : What is gel nails? How can you tell the difference? Are they the best kind? I'm just trying to get my facts straight. lml thanks if you responding.

Umm I'm no nail expert but when I get my nails done I always do the gel overlay it last longer and way better quality then acrylic also they have gel polish which should last two weeks without chipping. this polish is sealed with you've light and can.be applied directly over natural nail and over the actual gel powder fake nail peraay... :) hope that helped.

I've never tried them but I'm pretty sure you paint your nails with special gel nail polish then there's a little you've light thing which you put your nails under and it dries it for you. Also gel nails are supposed to last longer than regular nail polish. I personally don't use them because I think it's kinda expensive to start buying gel nail polish and the light kit. But I'm sure they're great. Hope I helped!

Sorry If you didn't get what I was saying. It was a one minute thing and I needed a answer real quick to something. But sorry if you don't understand.

Basically, they stay on a lot longer than regular nail polish, are a lot shinier, but also take a lot longer to do if you're doing them yourself. :) I bought the whole system, the you've light and everything, and I absolutely love it! It's a bit costly at first, but after that you never have to go get them done at a salon again!
