Ohora N Addict Semi-Cured Gel Manicure

Hooked

“I've tried a few different brands of gel strips now, and these are hands down my favorite for fit and ease of application. I apply, cure, trim, cure, apply a gel top coat, and cure again and get at least a week out of them. I'd likely very easily get longer but I get picky and whoop, there they went! I'm actually on a mission with my current set to try for two weeks because the short amount of time with too much filing has caused some peeling on the tips of my nails. My own fault. These do NOT come even close to the damage of regular gel manicures! Do yourself a favor: Go watch some YouTube vids on applying them before you think they suck. You cannot use these to make your nails longer. You might get away with a couple of millimeters past your natural nail, but that's about it. They're intended to cover your actual nail, not lengthen like acrylics. Something that has been helpful for me, too, is to apply more side to side than lengthwise. I match the sticker up with one side of my nail, fitting it into the "corner" by my cuticle, then stretch it over to the other side, if that makes sense. I have fairly large nail beds and these fit better than any other brand, but they still don't have enough bigger sizes. I can, however, stretch them so I can usually get two sets out of them, especially if I do a little mix and match with glitter nails from other sets. At any rate, game changer, will likely never do salon gel again. Anyone saying they don't last or that they don't look as nice as salon needs to watch some YouTube University and get some pointers because they're most likely doing something wrong.”
