Nailing pretty nails

While I am okay at doing my own nails, they tend to chip after a few days which drives me nuts! And I just don't have time to do my nails that often. I also love the gel look and am keen to save money and try some DIY options. Both Sally Hansen and Orly are bringing out options. Here is the Orly review done by Primped:http://primped.ninemsn.com.au/blogs/blush-hour/diy-gel-manicur-we-road-test-new-orly-smartgels-system. I am unsure about the initial outlay. Bellasugar also gave it a good review:http://www.bellasugar.com.au/DIY-Manicure-Product-Review-Orly-Smart-Gels-System-Gel-Nails-Home-24683143?slide=11&_nz=80. But I think while I'm saving my money and thinking about the Orly Gel system, I might try Sally Hansens salon manicure instead:http://www.beautyheaven.com.au/hands/nail-care-treatments/27530-sally-hansen-complete-salon-manicure. http://www.sarahassansblog.com/2011/04/notd-frutti-petutie-sally-hansen.html?m=1.
