How to apply Polygel by Gelish. My honest opinion about this product



Polygel by Gelish is hybrid of acrylic and hard gel. When I first saw Polygel tutorial by Danny Haile I was fascinated by this product and immediately realised that I need to have it! 
When it was introduced at Intecharm beauty show in Moscow I bought Cover Pink gel and Slip Solution liquid.
Now I feel that I need White, Clear and Pink too :)
In this video you will see my honest review and feedback for this product.
It was my second attempt of working with it and first time on a model with short natural nails.
What do you think? Have you tried Polygel by Gelish already?

Dripping diamonds design

Kylie Jenner lipsticks inspired me long time ago to create something with dripping drops on the nails. I always liked to match black matte with something sparkling and glitter. I decided to use silver glitter gel and add white Swarosvki rhinestones.
I think it will look cool with gold too and golden Rhinestones and other colours will look good as well.
Mix and match different colours to create more ideas for this design!

Nail competition in St. Petersburg ♡ Vlog | How to win?

International nail sculpting and design Nail competition Nevskie Berega took place in St. Peterburg, Russian in September 2016.
During 3 days nail technicians compete in 18 competitions and last day is always awards ceremony.
We won 21 trophies and 3 Grand prizes - 1 bronze, 2 silver.
I had competitors of all levels this time - novice, junior and 2 veterans. For three of them it was first competition in their life. I can totally understand and feel their vibes of excitement. First competition for nail technician is always completely terrifying, breathtaking and sometimes heart breaking. But I think it is something that each professional need to experience at least once in their lives.
You can also find my posts related to this competition with a #nailcou_nevskie hashtag
