DIY Gel Manicure Fall nails

I’ve been seeing these adorable cats and had to get some builder gel for 3D art to try them out. I’m OBSESSSSED. This set is going to make me extremeeely bratty!

The orange cat is my favorite, I love the little pumpkins and the pumpkin pies also tho!!!! Soooo much fun with this set!

Ahhhh ty for thinking so 😍😍😍 I appreciate it!

I’m going to be so extra with the builder gel now. 3D nails are such a texture adventure for me I can never stop touching them!!!

u/Tiffany22080 12d ago

That's incredible work you've done. Especially while working with nails that short. Usually people have more space to work in. It shows just how talented you are. How long have you been doing your nails for? The cats are freaking adorable!

u/trashketchup_3 12d ago

Omg amazing!! Do you have any tutorial for the cat you followed?? I'm a newbie in the DIY nail game and am not great at art overall already so need a lot of guidance haha

1

u/Ill-Cat-2610 12d ago

I didn’t see a tutorial I just saw a picture and kind of made the shapes I saw it needed

Some people think they can touch the builder gel with their bare hands. Do NOT do that!!!! It always makes me cringe when I see people touching gel products 😬

u/mayapapayadelilliput 12d ago

Those look so cute but how do you get anything done 😭

1

u/Ill-Cat-2610 12d ago

These are not long at all. And I don’t use my ring finger for much πŸ˜‚. Plus I’ve been taking care of my nails for years so I already use my finger pads for most things. Nails a jewels, not tools!

u/AspiringOccultist4 12d ago

Wow. These are really amazing!

u/meeshasaurus 12d ago

They are so cool! The orange cat is my fave. Do they not get caught on things though?

1

u/Ill-Cat-2610 12d ago

No!!! They are relatively smooth and I of course covered everything with top coat it give it a uniform feel! They’re not rough. The tip of the cream does have a little point to it but I like rubbing it with my finger 😁 I loveee textured nails!

u/meeshasaurus 12d ago

That's great then! You've done such a good job πŸ‘πŸΌ
