It’s no secret quarantine has tested our beauty skills on several levels. From learning how to remove your gel manicured nails at home to applying press-ons, we’re becoming professionals one day at a time. With salons closed, at-home gel nail kits are flying off the market as women are empowering themselves to beauty their own manicurists. Let’s face it, we’ll never be as amazing as our nail techs but let’s make them proud. Whether you’re tired of looking at those nail dulls, want to become a pro or simply miss getting a mani -- we’ve rounded up the best gel nail kits the experts swear by.

Expert Insights

According to the ZOYA’s Creative Director Rebecca Isa, this kit is every you’ll need if you’re recovering from a post-nail extensions lifestyle. Since you’ll want to treat that vulnerable raw nail bed, treatment and healing are key. Luckily, the Naked Manicure Gelie-Cure Retail Kit carries the brand’s Rescue Serum, which is the ultimate treatment for skin care for nails and cuticles alongwith the Repair Base that fills and strengthens the nail as it smooths out ridges. Rebecca adds that the two together create the appearance of a healthier looking nail. The gel system can be used with a variety of ZOYA colors along with the LED Light as long as the steps are followed as instructed. Hello, Hollywood nails!
