like this is the hottest picture of me ever taken bro thought he did something

literally just the POWDER (i did not use any dip liquid) had me waking up at 7am completely unable to breathe thru my nose, sneezing non stop, etc.

idk how long this will last i’m doing it for science

my attempt at faux dip??? (idk what else to call it lol, it’s dip powder adhered w/ JUST nail glue, along w/ tips, regular polish on top. i have a severe allergy to SOMETHING in most gels & dip liquids so i invented this monstrosity.)

my absolute favorite btw. criminally underrated. i deadass think abt it every single day.

this was also exasperated by the fact that when i was visiting nail salons they were not reputable and were not diligent about curing their gel entirely.

obviously this is my own personal experience but after using at home gel products (beetles mostly) i developed severe contact dermatitis and onycholysis (my nails literally fell off lol) and now i can literally never ever use any gel products ever again.

now!
