My neon Red Carpet Manicure in Star Power

Dolls, few things are more thrilling than being able to give yourself a long-lasting (2-3 weeks!)gel manicure in the comfort of your own home. In fact, I’d say it ranks closet to smartphones and DVR on the necessary innovation scale. Check my Red Carpet Manicure, scored at an event held by the brand last week. With shine, chip-free realness and 50 hot hues including some neons worthy of Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead‘s nurse Nicole, you’ll surely want to get right on top of that, Rose.

Celebrity manicurist Gina Eppolito has tended to the tips of such notables as Rihanna shared an awesome tip for rocking neon with me. She advises that you apply a layer of white underneath neon shades for a more electric look. Like Nicole’s. Some more tips from Gina? She says to keep nails completely flat and level when curing. Only use the LED lamp for the allotted amount of time, never more. Finally, do NOT use cotton or anything that can produce lint residue. Instead, use a gauze pad.
