I went a little crazy in this one—this is a super relaxed mixed nail art haul with mostly AliExpress finds (plus a couple things from Shein). We’re hanging out, unboxing a whole whack of nail goodies, and talking about affordable ways to build your nail art collection over time without blowing your budget in one go. I start with the dual forms because… yeah, I kind of went dual form crazy. The shapes are so unique (some are giving Russian almond vibes, some are super long and wild), and I’m really wanting to practice with builder gel/hard gel before I commit to taking a full class. I also show some hard gel/builder products and chat about what “hard gel” usually means for removal (file-off, not soak-off—be mindful of that). Then we get into the fun stuff: pastel painting gels, a ton of stencils (French + lines because those are the hardest), stickers, chain, charms, flakes (thin flakes vs thicker mylar-style pieces), and chromes. I even test a rotating cat-eye magnet tool and it actually gives that light-chaser effect without having to wave a magnet around forever. At the end, I haul a pile of molds (yes, I have a small obsession) with tons of bears, bunnies, fruit, faces, and random little characters. And I also bring up the money-saving box system I used last year to help save up for bigger shopping moments like Black Friday and Christmas supply hauls.
