I wear shien nails all the time, but I use builder gel.. man my nails be tapping like acrylic. If you want a thicker nail do in this order. Base gel,builder gel, top coat. I do this to kiss nails and it makes them thicker/sturdy! I promise they won’t be as thin from when you open them.
This is one of my favorite sets to wear!!! I always put gel or rhinestone glue and cure 60-90 in between each coat (I do 3 coats ) underneath if I don’t have acrylic powder and it works wonders
those nails are so cute but here’s the thing you have to put your nails on at the cuticle not the tip of your nail the cuticle and you have to do the prep so your nails won’t be damaged and that’s a little bit too much glue. And that’s enough.
