Before we get started, my nail classes are 20% off this weekend too! I actually use Kokoist & Nail Thoughts products in these classes (although you can also apply the info to any product/brand you use) and they pair perfectly with this sale! You can learn how to use gel products safely, or learn new techniques/perfect your routine!

Advanced Gel Manicure Class: Learn how to do my exact process I always do - rebalances with my e-file, advanced cuticle e-file work, and builder gel application for manicures that LAST! Learn the why behind each of the tools and products you’re using so you can apply that knowledge to every manicure you do!

Basic Gel Manicure Class: This is a perfect class for anyone who wants to perfect a basic gel manicure and learn all about gel safety! You’ll learn the foundations of what gel polish is, how to safely use it, how to do a basic dry manicure, apply the gel so it lasts for weeks, and remove it safely with no damage.

Basic + Advanced Gel Manicure Bundle: A bundle of both classes above so you can be a gel manicure master in one go!

1. Unicorn Candy Magnet Gels + Unicorn Mermaid Magnet Gels: This is a new set of 9 new iridescent jelly rainbow and aurora magnet gels!!! Have you ever heard of anything more perfect?? There are three mermaid gels that have multi colored aurora effects inspired by the ocean and they literally look like glittery gorgeous water colors! Then the six Candy Magnet gels are sheer colored bases with golden magnet glitter and ALSO rainbow colored iridescent shimmery magnet glitter and they’re insaneeee. I’m wearing Peach Rainbow here and I’m obsessed!

   

2. Crystal Glass Veil Powder: This is a brand new CLEAR chrome powder!! It’s shimmery and ever so slightly pearly, but less white and powdery than the Fairy Veil Powder! One thing I really like about this is that it doesn’t change the color of the base gel too much at all. I tested this on a Unicorn Mermaid gel (from above) and it was still bright and vibrant, it just had a glassy sheen to it! I can’t wait to use this to make all of my glazed donut nail dreams come true.

   

3. New Bleeding Inks! These are new alcohol pigment inks that you can use for nail art in NEW colors and also they have a NEW pointed brush!!! Which means you can use the bottle brush for more precise details if you want. I am especially excited about the new colors and the pastel set! I got to try these out at the Oregon nail expo and they have the same amazing bleeding and blending quality as all of the other Kokoist inks which make them super user friendly. I can’t wait to use them more!

1. Bottle’N Go Colors: These are new HEMA & TPO free color gels in a bottle with a new rounded brush!! My favorite thing about these is the self-leveling formula, it is sooo easy to use. There are 58 new colors and I feel like it’s an amazing option if you’re looking to build your color gel collection. I also LOVE the flash glitters (especially Rainbow Ice and Rainbow Mauve!)

2. Round Brush & Long Liner Brush: I’ve been reaching for these two brushes the most out of any of my brushes recently!! I love the length and shape of the round brush for potted builder or color application, and then I’ll switch to the long liner brush to refine! It’s also amazing for nail art because the length and tiny pointed end really allow you to do any tiny details! Make sure to use Brush Cleaning Gel to clean them and prevent the brushes from drying out!!!

3. Max Magnet: This is the only magnet I’ve been using for about the past year and it’s sooo good. It’s heavy duty and SO strong and it pulls up all of the particles in the gel pretty quickly to give off a very bright finish for all of your magnet gels!! I worked at the Oregon Nail Expo the other week, and this was one of the first items to sell out, it’s that good!!

1. Ultimate Trio: This has my three absolute favorite must have products in it - Ultra Glossy Top Coat, Mega Stick Base and Platinum Filler Builder Base. These are in constant rotation for my manicures and I use the base & top coat pretty much every time. They’re the best for long lasting and super shiny manicures and I just swear by them!!!

   There is also a new HEMA & TPO free version of Mega Stick called Sticky Base and also of Ultra Glossy called Totally Glossy!! I’ve been using them for the past month and I’m loving them!

2. Nail Thoughts Strawberry Lemonade Base + Matsuri: I wore this combo recently and I think it’s SO cute for summer and I want to put it back on my nails ASAP.

   

3. Le Blanc Lamp: This is theee best nail lamp in my opinion and it’s the best time to grab it for 20% off!! If you’re using Kokoist & Nail Thoughts products, it’s a great investment to make to ensure they’re all curing properly with this lamp. The Hybrid Infinity Lamp is also another amazing option! The main difference is that this one has a cord and must be plugged in, whereas the Le Blanc can be cordless.

Don’t forget to look at all of my favorites on my Kokoist spreadsheet if you need any other recs!! Thanks for reading & lmk if you have any questions!
