Can I use Gelly Tips without a nail e-file/drill?

Absolutely, we have a hack that will ensure your Gelly Tips are properly prepped and ready to application, without a nail drill! Instead of using a nail file to rough the inside of the Gelly Tips, apply a little bit of Primer #2 to the area that will come into contact with the nail bed, and allow it to dry for 2-4 minutes or until the inside of the Gelly Tips becomes tacky. Follow all other steps as normal and use a buffer block to remove the shine from the surface of the Gelly Tip before applying gel or lacquer.
