Diamond gel
The diamond gel I’m using in my recent tiktok is from BrillbirdUK, but the shipping was expensive so I found one similar on amazon too! This set of 6 ! from born pretty looks great and is available on prime here for the same price as 1 Brillbird polish!
Nail drill
Portable e-file that I used to use in ALL my videos available here. You will have to buy drill bits, the ones that come with aren’t great. My faves are linked below.
Now I use a nail drill from @kuku.nails on instagram.
Nail Tips
The nail tips I use are from a local brand called KUKU. If you’re from Northern Ireland they’re based in Portadown.
Otherwise- These look similar. They’re straight rather than curved down- so they look like forms when applied! This also helps if you’re typing on a laptop! Shop here.
My favourite nail lamp
SunX UV LED 54W nail lamp is powerful enough to cure all gel in just 60 seconds. It also has a low heat mode, which is great if you have sensitive nail beds

Nail colour palette rings.
I was getting really sick of mixing up colours on my desk, on top of my gloves, on various boxes I could find in my drawers. These are great, and save me a lot of mess! Available here.
My camera
When my videos look especially nice, I’m probably shooting on my Sony a6400.
Otherwise It’s my iPhone Xs.

Carbide safety nail drill bit
I bought this exact bit on 9 December 2018, and I still use it to this day. Safe for the delicate skin around the nail and great for removing product for beginners and experienced techs alike

My lens
Sony 16.55 f2.8 G : This is my only lens. It’s super pricey but worth every penny in my opinion. Fun fact: I shoot all my video in manual focus, so having the switch on the lens is really handy.

My go to nail art brushes
I bought this kit 5 years ago, and some of the brushes are still in my daily uses for fine fine lines.

Nail art pop sticks
Great for practice or just displaying all of your colours on. I’ve filled all mine up, so actually it may be time to buy some more

Nail forms I use
When I’m not in the mood to use the KUKU tips, I use these nail forms

Builder gel
This gel is amazing because it is totally not yellow when it cures, very low heat, and crystal clear. I’ve used it for 3 years and never found one I like more.

Nail art pigments
Gold, silver, holographic, what more could you want? Great for that super trendy gold marble style that’s been going around lately

NSI superbond primer
This was a recommendation from a friend when i was struggling with nails “popping off”. It’s an acid based primer, which I think works best with most products
Buy it here
Great base and top coats
I love this no wipe gel top coat because it does not cure yellow, even over white, and I havent noticed any discolouration on blacks either! No wipe top coat is much shinier than regular gel top coat.

NSI polybond brush on glue
Gamechanger. No more glue bottles glueing themselves shut overnight. Great for false nails too - the brush lets you be so precise!
