I have otherwise always used gel and after pregnancy suddenly got an allergy. My hands looked like I had grabbed a stinging nettle and itched terribly. Since I bang and bite my nails violently, I needed a solution again. First I stuck with a dipping powder of another brand, but I was missing the color powder and afterwards still with nail polish and top coat over it was too time-consuming for me. Therefore, I switched to Doonails and it just holds even better than the other brand! My router has trouble removing the build up before remodeling. I love the shine and the colors are mega! 🥰
