These nails are the last set that I did on myself about 2 weeks ago and lasted me 3 weeks. It took me about 2 and a half hours to do. These nails are medium length and well manicured, with a French tip glossy finish.

As soon as I saw the final result, I got a surge of confidence and I loved them.
Nailin’ it!
