Faraglione di Mezzo 🪨 The signature sight of

Faraglione di Mezzo 🪨

The signature sight of Capri is the three rocky “stacks” called I Faraglioni. They range from 80 to 150 meters high. The first, still attached to the coast, is named Stella. The middle one is appropriately named Faraglione di Mezzo (middle) and has an arch in its rock. The final one is Faraglione di Fuori (meaning “outer”) but is also called the Scopolo. Regardless of they’re called they are beautiful 😍!

See below for answers to questions I had as a first timer. Here are the steps I took to do my nails.

1. prime nails by lightly sanding and applying acetone. Push back cuticle.
2. apply gel x extensions using gel x glue
3. shape and sand nail
4. apply gel nail polish and top coat

for those of you who do not know, gel x is a type of nail extension made from gel formulations that are easy to soak off (tbd - will report back - like and follow for more 😉)

My gel x nail glue hasn’t come in the mail yet so I read that you can use builder gel or base coat. I used both and prefer using the base coat.

Applying gel x nails 1x1 is a must. The nail is kind of slippery until the UV light sets it.

There was quite a bit of a learning curve with the efile nail drill but there are a lot of great videos on @YouTube. My favorite was from @youngnailsinc

Got any tips for me? Comment below!
