I have a bad nail biting habit and I try my best to have my nails painted to keep myself from biting, but regular nail polish chips so easily and constantly going to the salon for gel nails is such a hassle. When I learned about this awesome new brand I was excited to give it a try. Le Mini Macaron provides you with a personal little UV light shaped like a macaron (how adorable is that?!) and comes in any color polish you could want so that you can do your own gel mani-pedi at home! All you do is paint your nails like usual, only with every coat you put your finger under the UV light for 30 seconds. It has its own timer so the light will automatically switch off after 30 seconds. Et voila! The next thing you know, you have gorgeously painted gel nails and you have saved time and money by doing it yourself. You don't have to wait for the polish to dry, you don't have to worry about it chipping off because it's stronger than regular at-home polish, it's got a gorgeous sheen so it doesn't need a top coat, and it's ridiculously affordable (only $35 for a starter kit, which includes the polish, the UV light, a full set of remover pads, a nail file, and a cuticle stick). What are you waiting for? Use the code above to get 15% off your kit and get started!
Tip: I found that it worked best when I actually gave each coat 60 seconds under the light rather than 30, so just do two rounds of UV light for each coat instead to avoid air bubbles in the polish!
