@nails_byjaydenn: For long-lasting builder gel, proper nail prep is everything to me. The cuticles need to be thoroughly cleaned, and the natural nail plate must be gently and carefully buffed. Builder gel should be applied smoothly and evenly, with a well-balanced apex for strength and structure. Not too thick, not too thin, and definitely no lumps or bumps. A clean, smooth, and perfectly structured finish is always my goal. ✨ #bayareanailtech #buildergel #nailtechlife #nailcare
