At-home Gel Manicure

I enjoy going out to get my nails done, but it could get very costly. The last time I got a manicure at a salon was a year ago. Now a days, it is also difficult for me to travel out to get my nails done. I own a bunch of nail polish, but everything seems to chip on me. I would paint my nails at night, and it would chip the next morning! I do a lot of cooking and chores at home, so I want something that would last at least a week. Just one week is all I ask for! My friend answered my calling and gave me the Red Carpet Gel Polish Pro Kit

This kit comes with: 
  1. Professional LED Light - Gel-Curing Light
  2. Nail Prep - Max Adhesion Prep 
  3. Structure - Base Coat
  4. Brilliance - Seal Top Coat
  5. Revitalize - Cuticle Oil
  6. Erase - Gel Nail Polish Remover
  7. Purify - Application Cleanser
  8. Red Gel Nail Polish 
  9. Instruction Booket

The Red Carpet Gel Polish Pro Kit is extremely easy to use, and if you paint your nails often; it will be a piece of cake. I am in love with this gel polish kit! The gel nail polish did not chip or peel and it stayed on until my nails grew out. The trick to applying any gel nail polish is to apply very thin coats. I've never been completely satisfy with gel manicures at salons, because they always tend to peel on me. I also hate it when it looks too thick. Maybe it's because they know I will have to come back to the salon to get it touched up or something, but can't they just make it look nice? 

Overall, this is a great kit and I highly recommend it for those of you who work with your hands a lot. As a mom of two, this takes maybe 20 minutes of my time at night (from filing my nails to gel application). My gel manicure has never looked better and I am extremely satisfied with the longevity of the polish on my nails. I have nothing bad to say about it. 



Shape and buff out the ridges of your nails. Use Purify cleanser to wipe disinfect and apply Prep onto nails. 

Apply Structure base coat and cure under LED light
