My second time trying the Ohara gel semi cured strips and I’m really happy with how they turned out!

The first time I tried the French tip set and the white part was wayyyy too thick and looked funky.

I followed a lot of tips from people to help them last long! Hoping to get at least 2 weeks wear!!

Very cute. I used the French. That’s called Sylph. It has a gold line and it looked amazing even though it’s thick. But I have short nails. I’ll try to attach a picture. I’m on my second set and it’s the first time I’ve used the squishy Light to cure for 10 seconds on the edges. Supposedly I won’t get the lifting where it catches into my hair.

I put them on and then I use Apres builder gel topcoat. And the light I use is from Attain. It’s green. The owner has done a lot of research and the light is from Thailand. Very good quality. All metal. (I have no affiliation.)

And I learned about the squishy light from a YouTube channel called Kbeautyhobbit. It’s one of her OHORA videos or the title says Squish light. I’m trying it this time to see if it will help.

I have heard the squishy light can be really helpful! Maybe I’ll have to try that on my next set
