    I would love to see different combos with your kokoist colored base coats and gel colors! Like this one you paired Overcast and Pool Float and I think I saw you or another creator pair Milky White and Strawberry Milk? I haven’t gotten into mail art yet but these combos open the door to more possibilities!

    Oh it could be like 2 hours or more ! It depends on the length of my nails / design/ how much i care that day 🙈 filming slows me down even more

    Colour looks great! Can I do short nail extensions with fake tips with tinted base colours. Or what is the best way to do short nail extensions with fake tips ( not using nail forms ). Thanks ❤

    Thank you so much!! I do know that people do use my tinted bases for those clear gel extension tips! Most of the time i personally like to use my clear builder base when using those, just to create a nice blank canvas for me as opposed to having built in color . But it all depends on the look you’re going for!

    i desperately need to you tell us how to be less rough with our hands!! i think my prep is fairly good, but im so rough i always end up getting lifting on my free edges and have to redo my nailthoughts builder gel manicure completely from scratch (bare natural nails and all) once a week :(
