acrylic fingernails saved me $2000 on a manicure!A Handicapped Manicurist's Tearful Experience Kit
Yesterday, I was pulled over by an old lady at Target to ask where I got my nails done (actually, I got them done by my bathtub), and these crappy acrylic fingernails have actually turned me from a nail art black hole to a socialite!Sharing a few wild ideas on how to get Pro fitted even with zero foundation:

🛒 Walmart's $10 acrylic fingernails designs kit real-world review
Don't buy the pink box that says "Acrylic Nail Kit"!The glue stinks like rotten onions (don't ask me how I know that)
Check out the blue packaging of the "ProPress" series - the nails come with double sided adhesive tape, which can be removed with hot water without damaging the nails (perfect for the fancy people like me who change their style every three days)

Tools: acrylic fingernails piece (choose short almond type), expired eyeliner pen, microwave oven
white acrylic fingernails
long acrylic fingernails
Soak the nail piece in hot water for 30 seconds to soften, cut it into a dog-eared shape (irregular edges are popular this year!).
Use eyeliner dipped in cooking oil to draw marbling on the nail (the principle of oil and water repulsion, better than professional glue)
microwave oven on low heat for 10 seconds to accelerate the curing of glue (faster than the UV lamp, but don't put metal nail pieces!)

⚠️ These tawdry operations will ruin your hands!
Biting off nail with teeth = bloody nail bed (don't follow Tikker's example)
Going for a swim right after applying nails = nails turning into a submarine (gurgling bubbles are super embarrassing)
Re-using nails for more than 3 times = raising a petri dish of bacteria (don't save that $2, your health is most important ah sister)
🔥 First Aid Theater
Scenario: 1 hour before the date the nail piece crumbles
First aid kit: chewing gum + lighter + eyeshadow sequins
Operation: chewing gum to stick to the nail piece → lighter lightly bake the adhesive layer on the back → sprinkle sequins to cover up the cracks → proclaiming that this is the new trend of Y2K
🤫Ins bloggers won't say removing acrylic fingernails The Truth
acrylic fingernails The secret to a long hand: the nail is 1mm narrower than the nail (visual deception yyds)
Nail yellowing rescue: soak in lemon juice + baking soda for 10 minutes, better than whitening toothpaste
Don't re-post if you've got a crooked sticker!Use the cut-off edge of the nail as a "bracket" to adjust the angle
Last advice:
Don't be afraid to see the "Professional Use Only" label!That's just a way for them to make you an extra $50 for their services.Remember, the end of acrylic fingernails is DIY and saves enough money to buy ten cups of Star Dads!
