Heyyy, nail babes! Today’s tea is all about how to do acrylic nails for beginners without crying into a half-empty bottle of monomer. Spoiler: I’ve tried every DIY acrylic nail kit known to humankind, and the SAVILAND Acrylic Nail Kit? It’s the one that finally made me go, “Oh! I get it now!” Let’s dive in like it’s Taco Tuesday and we’re discussing life’s greatest mysteries.
1. Unboxing: Like Christmas, But for Your Nails
When my SAVILAND Acrylic Nail Kit showed up on my doorstep, I legitimately did a happy dance. The packaging? Gorgeous rose gold vibes—perfect for that ~aesthetic~ flatlay. But the real magic? It’s like someone read my mind and packed every single thing I’ve ever needed to become a home nail tech. No more Googling “what do you need to do your own acrylic nails” at 2 a.m.!
Inside, you’ll find:
- ● 3 acrylic powder (clear, white, pink, more than enough for new starters)
- ● 50ml Acrylic monomer liquid that doesn’t smell like a chemistry lab
- ● 3 acrylic nail brush（6# 10# 12#），essential for nail extensions and sculpting
- ● A mini LED lamp (yes, really—no more waiting 30 minutes for nails to dry)
- ● A electric nail drill kit(no manual sanding required, boosting efficiency tremendously)
- ● 3 gel nail polish, 1 base & top gel nail tips, brushes, files… everything.
My honest take? Even my clumsy cousin could use this. No missing tools, no excuses.
2. Let’s Get Hands-On: My First Attempt
Alright, let’s talk how to do acrylic nails for beginners using this kit. Here’s the TL;DR:
Step 1: Prep Like a Pro… Or a Lazy Person
Start by shoving your cuticles back with the cuticle pusher (never cut them, please!). File your nails into your fave shape—I went with almond because classy. Buff them gently so the acrylic sticks like glue.
Pro move: If you’re scared of shaping, slap on a nail tip first. They’re pre-sized and so easy to apply.
Step 2: Mixing the Powder & Liquid Like a Mad Scientist
This is where most kits fail… but not SAVILAND! The monomer has a light, non-gag-inducing scent, and the powder blends like a dream. I followed the “dip and twist” method: dip brush in liquid, swirl in powder, repeat until it’s the consistency of Play-Doh.
Pro tip: Start with tiny drops of liquid. You can always add more, but you can’t un-waste it.
Step 3: Applying the Acrylic… and Not Screwing It Up
Dip the brush into the mixture and paint it on your nail, starting at the cuticle. Use the brush to shape it into a curve—no art degree required. For extra strength, dip your nail in powder again while it’s wet.
Result? A set that looked like I spent $100 at the salon. And I’ve already recreated it three times—yes, I’m that obsessed.
3. Why SAVILAND Slaps (In a Good Way)
Let’s break down why this is the best DIY acrylic nail kit I’ve ever used:
No Nasties Formula
The monomer is odorless and non-toxic, and the gel nail polish rich in castor oil and vitamin e. I’ve used kits that made my eyes water, but SAVILAND’s formula is gentle AF—even for my eczema-prone hands.
Everything You Need, Zero Junk
Other kits forget half the tools, but SAVILAND? They’ve got you. Tweezers, tips, even a mini cleanser brush. The LED lamp and the electric nail drill is the real MVP—it cures and polishes your nails in seconds.
Final thoughts? This kit is worth every penny. It’s saved me so much money, and my nails are stronger than my willpower around chocolate.
4. Q&A with Your New Nail BFF
Q: Is this really for beginners?
