The nail tips I used to make this press-on nail set were gifted to me by Novo Ovo to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. As I’ve learned more about doing my nails at home, and making my own press on nails, I’m getting more adventurous. This means venturing out from my pre-designed nail tips (french tip, ombré, etc.), and adding some clear nail tips to my collection. So when Novo Ovo reached out to me to review their new extra thick clear nails, I was super excited. Their new extra-thick nails are available on Amazon and come in a few different shapes.
Check out my TikTok below to see how I made these pink dreamy press on nails!
Novo Ovo Extra Thick Medium Coffin Nails
I’m wearing the extra thick nails in the medium coffin shape (Retail, $14.99). These nails are thicker at the tip so that they feel sturdy. They’re also pre-filed / etched at the cuticle so you don’t have to file them (filing underneath the nails before applying them helps them last longer!). I really like this feature, as it cuts a little bit of my prep routine before I apply the nails.
The nail set comes with 336 nails in 14 sizes, which means you get enough to do your nails roughly 24 times. Finding sizes that worked for me was fairly easy, and I have wider nailbeds. I definitely see myself using these nail tips a lot in the future.
Check out my Amazon Storefront to shop these nails and all my favorite DIY nail stuff.
How I Did This Pink Dreamy Nail Set
Base Coat
After finding my sizes and prepping the nails (filing the tips and wiping the nails with rubbing alcohol on a lint-free nail wipe), I applied a coat of Beetles base gel polish. I cured it for 99 seconds under my nail lamp.
DND Pearly Pink Gel Polish
I’m working on building up my gel polish collection, and I’ve heard great things about DND gel. I got their polish set in the color “Pearly Pink” which is a pretty milky pink shade. The set comes with a gel polish (white bottle) and nail lacquer in the same shade.
I did two coats of the gel polish, and cured each coat for 45 seconds under my nail lamp (per the instructions on the DND website).
Cloud Nail Stickers
I love a good nail sticker quickly add designs to my nails. I looked through my nail draw and found a set of butterfly and cloud nail stickers I got on Ali Express (I also found them on Amazon, which I linked) and used the cloud stickers for this set.
Builder Gel
After applying the nail stickers, I did a coat of BTArtBox Builder Gel. I made sure the coat wasn’t too thick, given that the tip of these Novo Ovo nails is already thick lol. I cured it under my nail lamp for 60 seconds.
Iridescent Top Coat
To finish off my nails, I applied the Heavenly Gel Top Coat by Apres Gel in the shade “Cherub“. This is a sheer iridescent peachy-pink shade. I cured it under my nail lamp for 60 seconds.
