Re: Day 1 of Nutra Nail UV Free Gel

I haven't but it looks interesting. How hard was it to apply? Does it have a clean look?

Please keep us posted on how it holds up.

I am about to throw every nail polish, base coat, top coat, etc that I own out the window.

My nails look like poop within 2 days!

Hmmm keep us updated!

One question though- in the application video, it says streaky is okay when applying the color. Did you find it streaky? And did the second coat of activator get rid of the streakiness?

Ehhh got a big chip in one today Chat Icon Yes the second coat goes on pretty streak free. I just did another coat of activator and color after I got the chip. so far the reviews aren't that great but I'll keep ya posted.

I also saw something at Ulta called an LED mani- like a gel mani- but with an LED light rather than UV light.
You have to buy the light- I think it's around $25 - then you do the mani very similar to the gel mani process.
I'm thinking of maybe trying that.

Booooooooo! I always have such high hopes. I'm terrible with having my nails done b/c I feel like what's the point?! It's gonna look like crap in two days anyway! Chat Icon

It chipped and chipped bad for me by day 3 Chat Icon I took it off with cotton balls in acetone and foil for 2 minutes. No damage whatsoever and it came right off. Oh well...

I give myself gel manicures and the light (just like the one at the salon) only cost me 15 bucks on ebay. I do gelish and they last me weeks and weeks without lifting or chipping.. I only remove the gelish because i get sick of the color :)

Let me know if you get the LED light. I'd prefer to stay away from the UV light if I can.
