Got my first gel polish manicure today. I originally picked out a ballerina pink but my manicurist picked up some other color instead, saying the pink was too old. I don't mind this sparkly nude color though, and I love how fast gel polish dries. I meant for the flower design to be along my cuticle, but she had already started it before I saw.
Gel polish is so expensive! And the skin of my fingers felt a little sensitive to the UV light machine, but not by too much. I hear the gel polish doesn't chip though, so hopefully it's worth the extra price for the extra manicure life. I think I will go to a different salon next time though. The ladies at the salon I went to are nice, but their selection of gel polish colors is rather limited. I would get my own gel polish set, but I hear it's tough to remove the polish from your nails on your own. The next time I go will probably be in 1.5 or 2 weeks, and I'll pick out an actual color. Maybe a nice green just before St. Patrick's Day.
