Alright, y’all- who enjoys a nice shellac manicure, but doesn’t really love spending the money or finding the time to go to the nail salon?

Me.

I mean, it’s nice to go for that for special occasions, but I just can’t justify doing it all the time, but I still want my nails looking good. And just polish barely lasts any time before it starts chipping and looking ugly.

Then, I found Gelous. And the at-home shellacking began.

Here’s the order for your at home shellac…

• One coat of clear coat (I use Essie 3-in-1)
• One coat of Gelous
• One coat of the color of your choice
• One coat of Gelous
• One coat of the color of your choice
• One coat of clear coat

And this lasts typically about 2 weeks! Once I found the dryer spray (more info about that here), this process was drastically cut in time. Gelous can be found at any Sally Beauty Supply, as well as here on Amazon!

Try it out and let me know if you have questions, or drop me a line to tell me what you think!
