@@yougotnails 🤣

Thank you!

@@judithsosa1342 in the lamp

thank you!

I believe here I am using a cone remover bit from Nail Art house, mine is right handed, I think the only one is stock is left handed nailarthouse.store/product/kmiz-tungsten-cone-nail-bit-050-c-left-handed-blue/

Good question! After I build the structure with the gel, I do normally wipe off the tacky layer because I file the nails to make there is a smooth surface before applying my gel base coat for a gel color application.

Hey! I am sorry to hear this is happening! To be honest there could be a multitude of reason that you are getting chipping. I do not cap the free edge because after I top coat I always finish file. It could be the gel system you are using, or maybe your lamp needs to be replaced. Also, the same gel is not going to work on every client, because some clients have different needs depending on the health of their nails, their goals, shape and length as well as their lifestyle. Rubber base might be too flexible, or maybe you are not building the correct structure that the nail needs. Here is what I would do. Make sure what ever gel system you are using, you are using every product in that system that you need to do a structured mani. Meaning if you are using Apres extension gel, you aren't using a different brand's primer and base coat. Also, check to see if your lamp needs to be replaced, I see a lot of clients in a week about 20-25 so I replace my lamp every year. Some lamps do not work with some gels. I have the kokoist lamp for when I do soft gel manicures because I normally only use Kokoist during that service. I also have a Akzentz lamp when I do hard gel, because I use the Akzentz gel during that service. Lastly, make sure that your prep is right, you can do beautiful gel nails but if the prep is not done correctly they will not last. Hope that helps!

Hey! it was one coat of black gel and a ice gel cat eye polish :)

Hey! I do like the MPA art gel palette, but it is not very travel friendly, I knocked it over and it did spill. I think it's good for art for sure, it's a nice thick opaque gel. For the Hello Kitty design I was curing in between layers. And then you can cut it out and stick it on a tacky layer of gel.

Thank you!

In what way are you referring to?

It really is!

Hey great question! So normally for a fill you do not have to remove all of the previous builder gel, unless it has lifted or you are doing a drastic color change if you are using a colored base. Most of my bits are from Erica's ATA or Staleks. The cuticle bits are diamond. If you are DIY nails at home I would be careful trying to use an e-file on yourself. It is very easy to damage your nails if you are not properly educated. I hope that helps!

this being said I normally leave about 10-20% of the previous gel on the nail

Hey! awesome, thank you so much! In a pinch I will wipe my brush off with alcohol. But over time this will dry out the hairs of the brush. It's best to eventually get a brush cleaner, I really like the kookiest one, I do believe Zillabeau sells them as well. They will keep the bristles of the brush nice and soft, while also cleaning the gel off the brush. Hope that helps :)

@@yougotnails Thank you so much for your quick reply! That was very, very helpful! I'll get that with my next order along with additional brushes- I really loved the one you suggested, too! Thank you :)

I wanted a hand that looked more realistic so I can film content on it, and I personally think the plastic hands are difficult to work with.

Thank you babe!

Thank you so much! 😊 I would say yes it is beneficial to apply a base gel before going in with a rubber base gel or builder gel. I think it makes a big difference adhesion wise! Normally whatever builder gel you use, I would use the systems same primer if they have or need one, and the same base. For a colored rubber base gel, I always put down a thinner clear base down, so when doing a fill or rebalance you don’t file all the way down to the natural nail. Hope that helps!

That makes sense! Thank you so much for your reply!

@@ariannavogel9633 of course!

Did you take off all of the gel from the previous manicure? You mentioned doing a fill.

Me too girl, we are in the same boat! 😂

Thank you so much!

Thank you! I believe they are from Swarovski!

Thank you ! I think I got the charms off eBay or Amazon, will definitely try to make a tutorial in the future!

Thank you! I save up all year for all the Black Friday sales, they truly are the best savings!

I definitely will, it makes your life so much easier

Thank you for subscribing! Yeah it was definitely a pretty penny, but I plan to use it quite often. I also started out with the little fingers from Amazon .

awesome, welcome!

thank you! it really is high quality!

It’s awesome! Will definitely say it’s very loud. How do you like the Kiara Sky one? I used to have their e-file and have mixed feelings

@@yougotnails I do also have mix feelings on the dust collector, I think it’s loud too but it’s bearable also it’s powerful . I think if the filter area /suction part of it lol was a little bigger or wider should I say, it would have been better with the dust collection because it is powerful enough to collect more dust then what it does now cause of the dust collector area being kind of small If that make sense. For me I think if the filter collector was bigger it would have worked better .

@MomoNailsCreation yeah I can definitely see that being an issue!

Oh yes they have a nice array of colors!

Lol it was an added sound effect for fun

calm down geez hhahhahaa

Why do people feel the need to leave unnecessary negativity??? I can’t stand it! Seriously though, the fact that some people take the time just to be ugly baffles me. Girl, if you want to add funny sound effects, go for it.. it’s cute

@@erind.8761 thank you lol 😂

Unfortunately I was all set to watch the video till that. To each their own.

thank you!

I would say a skinny thin liner brush, I love the Fiote one. And honestly practice!

@@yougotnails Thank you!

It’s gel I don’t do acrylic

Thank you!

Thank you!

Yes I only use gel

@yougotnails I was gonna say I can tell.. I only use acrylic gel has been too messy for me honestly

@@angelamarie727 it take a lot of practice getting the hang of it, but honestly I love how easy and convenient it is!

@@yougotnails I've heat alot of people say that. I've tried a few.. even the hard gel and I guess it just isn't for me. But if u can do it and like it they hats off to u fr

thank you@@angelamarie727

I used to take 10, 11 appointments a day, not worth the burn out and physical pain.
