youre the only youtuber i know that has step by step in multiple videos!!!! thank you i appreciate you. I just ordered everything I needed to start becuase you inspired me
I honestly love how humble, informative and kind you are like a lot of nail tech don’t really go out their way to tell us exactly the products they use but you do!
I’ve been wanting to start doing nails again! I had forgot how much I loved doing it but I was totally clueless on what I needed. Bless your heart for helping all the ladies! I appreciate you ☺️
I found your channel when I got interested in doing acrylic nails and EVERYTHING you say has helped me sooo much. I honestly go to your channel for everything especially reviews I’ve been really liking Mia secret but I’m very excited for you to try other brands too!❤️
Thank you for this! I’ve been looking into investing in nail products because of COVID-19 and I needed help as to how to start and what products to buy. Thank you so much for this! 💜💜💜
oh my god finally! someone who explains the uses and goes full in detail of how to use it, what it looks like, of every single necessity for doing acrylics for beginners!!! AMAZING!! since covid-19 has shut down all the nail salons in my town i gotta learn to do this on my own. plus, it’ll be cheaper in the long run. where have u been all my life??? 😂😂❤️
I THANK YOU souch for these notes and video. I recently moved and can't find a nail place. I decided I would do my own. I started to order stuff and now realize I need more stuff. Thank you very much!
I’m only 21 so when I say “back in the day” people watch me like I’m nuts, but when I first started getting my nails done (at like 14), the nail techs would trim my nails prior to adding the tips. I’ve noticed recently, the techs just slap the tips on there, long natural nails or not. I guess you have to ask now but I feel like it defeats the purpose if you can see the real nails under the acrylics.
you should do an updated “ how to do acrylic nails for beginners “ . btw i love your videos sm , i’ve watched almost all of them abt 3 times and i always go back and rewatch them 😂
This was soo helpful thank you! I was just asking in another video about what monomer to use and then I see this new video!! Once again thanks for sharing all your products and links!!
Love your videos. From what I've learned, I was always taught not to clean my brushes with acetone as acetone dries out the bristles. There are brush cleaners that they sell. I use the one from MIA Secret. Monomer is a good "conditioner" to keep your bristles nice too. (After the use of brush cleaner.)
Life With L & K I love the beyou nail tips,they help out with the shaping. because they come in stilleto shape & by cutting the tip it already gives you that coffin shape.I get them from Amazon!
could you please do a video on proper posture while sitting down & doing nails. my back has been hurting because i haven’t been sitting right & i would like you to explain how to sit & find a proper chair! thank you so much! 💖
What’s the difference between base and top coat and ways to use ,thank u for this! Also does it matter if the powder is pink or clear what’s difference ?
You look gorgeous Natalie ☺️ yes please try out the young nails i switched because the monomer from mia secret was giving me headaches 🤕 I’ve also seen a lot of girls rave about City nails monomer apparently it has a tropical smell im patently waiting to see if you review it 😉
What type of monomer has the least odor? Or is there a way to drastically reduce the smell of it? I won’t use acrylic on myself because I can’t stand the smell.
Your channel is amazing. I want to start getting into nails and you're my savings grace! I just need a how to do big bling tutorial! Bc I want to do this sooo much. Thank you thank you thank you, for everything 💛
Ms. Natalie, May the Most High GOD continue to Bless you in all areas. And lil’ Sugar too! You don’t have to do what you do for us but honestly, I don’t think you could be anything else but a ‘giver’. That’s a beautiful aspect in you. Now, that I’ve gotten all that out the way. Can you point me to a video that you may have done that focuses on ‘product terminology and it’s use OR- can you do a quick one, one day? For little ole me! If tell you I’m a sweet ole’ 54 yr. old lady would that help? I am for real but does that help me get that?😉 Like what is: ‘Cover’ Acrylic Wipe vs. No wipe Gel Coats Etc. Etc. Another question. Thanks to you-I just ordered me a MelodieSusie LED dryer but I originally had a ‘double hand’ UV only-dryer that I’ve had for a few years (Amazon). Is curing different between the two (other than time) like-does it affect the shine? Can you ‘over’ cure? I’ve been doing my own nails for years but had stopped and there’s now of course - a difference in products and well-there is the Gel use and application. And are you saying you can use acrylic foundation, non-gel polish and can top it WITH gel and cure? Because I’ve tried that and maybe I’m doing something wrong because after a few days....the layer of gel-starts to ‘peel’. What am I doing wrong? And if you’ve covered that in another video-just point tha’ way. I just binged watched you last night but I had to eventually go to sleep.😊 Thank you young lady. And I’m a relatively new subbie and it’s my first time seeing you in make-up. Beautiful. Either way.
Mrs. Sista' Hello ! I read your comment and although I am not Natalie , I’d like to help out and answer some of your questions based on what I know in hopes that it helps. I believe she has answered your questions , idk which videos exactly but her Q&A’s are a great start to possible get the answer . Anyway , here’s what I know, the cover powders are primarily used for the aesthetic extension of the nail bed and for covering the natural smile line . I have noticed they are also used to cover the whole nail . I believe cover powders come in “natural” shades . Like soft pinks , nudes , browns , etc and they are sealed with a layer of clear acrylic on top to prevent from filing away the color when shaping , buffing and sealing the cuticle after application . Wipe and Non-wipe top coats have to do with an inhibition layer that needs to be removed after curing the product . Other than that I’m not sure what’s better or what other difference there is . As far as LED and UV , LED cures faster and is “safer” due to exposure of UV rays . Not sure if there’s a possibility of over curing or what happens . I need to do my own research . Hehe . And for the process of applying a gel top coat after using regular nail polish, maybe make sure you are sealing the sides of the nail ? I know Natalie has mentioned to make sure the regular nail polish is completely dry and to make sure to seal the sides or “edges” of the nail with the gel top coat . I can’t go back and read your comment while typing because I’d have to discard what i already typed but if I miss anything , feel free to ask and I hope my comment (little knowledge I have) helps . Have a wonderful day/night ! P.S. If you are interested in learning more about nail care , make sure to check out the Milady Nail Technician textbook . It has lots of great information and it’s the textbook that’s used for nail school ! :)
Thank you so much for the support!!! I can definitely do a terminology video soon. I mostly only use a gel topcoat over regular polish when I do ombré nails with a sponge but you have to wait until the regular polish is COMPLETELY dry before you apply the gel topcoat. You can’t over cure, usually depending on the brand the curing time will be on the bottle.
What lamp do you use with acrylic nails? because I bought the uv lamp 48w thinking I could use it for regular nail polish but you can only use it for gel.
Tabitha Fox Amazon , look up sterilization pouch . www.amazon.com/Self-Sterilization-Pouches-Cleaning-Sterilizer-Offices/dp/B07D96GT8X/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=sterilizer+bags&qid=1563318409&s=gateway&sprefix=sterili&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

I love how organized you are!
You are unique in selecting nail designs
YES GIRL! Your videos are much appreciated, I love how in depth you go with the step by step! So helpful as a beginner :)
I’m only 21 so when I say “back in the day” people watch me like I’m nuts, but when I first started getting my nails done (at like 14), the nail techs would trim my nails prior to adding the tips. I’ve noticed recently, the techs just slap the tips on there, long natural nails or not. I guess you have to ask now but I feel like it defeats the purpose if you can see the real nails under the acrylics.
FR DUDE they don't even ask if u want them trimmed
Eeeewww... yep. I agree 💯... I hate seeing dirty, real nails growing out underneath. Just doesn’t look too crisp and clean 🙄
I hate having my nails trimmed because I wear both acrylics and my natural nails long so I don't mind.
you should do an updated “ how to do acrylic nails for beginners “ .
btw i love your videos sm , i’ve watched almost all of them abt 3 times and i always go back and rewatch them 😂
passion misquez she do have a video up like that! You have to go all the way down
Akeida Edmondson that’s why i said an updated version
You are really best, I like that about you. Most nail techs are so disorganized, it's almost like they're dirty.
I love the idea of pdf files we can print off. So convenient. Thank you for doing this!

I use the one from MIA Secret. Monomer is a good "conditioner" to keep your bristles nice too. (After the use of brush cleaner.)

Hey,, How often do you change the 180 sanding bit? @Natali Carmona
You look gorgeous Natalie ☺️ yes please try out the young nails i switched because the monomer from mia secret was giving me headaches 🤕 I’ve also seen a lot of girls rave about City nails monomer apparently it has a tropical smell im patently waiting to see if you review it 😉
What type of monomer has the least odor? Or is there a way to drastically reduce the smell of it? I won’t use acrylic on myself because I can’t stand the smell.
Great video! I need all the help I can get lol I’ve been struggling with filing and shaping.

Ms. Natalie, May the Most High GOD continue to Bless you in all areas. And lil’ Sugar too!
You don’t have to do what you do for us but honestly, I don’t think you could be anything else but a ‘giver’.
That’s a beautiful aspect in you.
Now, that I’ve gotten all that out the way.
Can you point me to a video that you may have done that focuses on ‘product terminology and it’s use OR- can you do a quick one, one day?
For little ole me! If tell you I’m a sweet ole’ 54 yr. old lady would that help? I am for real but does that help me get that?😉
Like what is:
‘Cover’ Acrylic
Wipe vs. No wipe Gel Coats
Etc. Etc.
Another question.
Thanks to you-I just ordered me a MelodieSusie LED dryer but I originally had a ‘double hand’ UV only-dryer that I’ve had for a few years (Amazon).
Is curing different between the two (other than time) like-does it affect the shine?
Can you ‘over’ cure?
I’ve been doing my own nails for years but had stopped and there’s now of course - a difference in products and well-there is the Gel use and application.

Thanks again for an informative video. I have learned everything from you!🤗🤗
This helped so much!!! 💛 I’m starting to do nails and this video was perfect thank you!
Can you do a video on what products to buy for uv lights as well how to clean and disinfect tools?
I’m new to this, is the pink acrylic powder like the nude color that resembles your actual nail color? Or is it an actual pink powder?
Where did you get your nail brush ? The black one that dusts all the dust ? I don’t see it on the list ? Love your videos 😍✨🤗😘
Hiii quick question can i use the Intense seal UV for manicure gel as base then as top coat ???
What lamp do you use with acrylic nails? because I bought the uv lamp 48w thinking I could use it for regular nail polish but you can only use it for gel.
Do you prefer the Melody Susie drill over the Makartt?
Thank you so much this was very useful 🙏🏼
Yessss to young nails yayy
can you make a video about the difference between dip powder and acrylic powder?
Looking so pretty love your hair and makeup 💄 maybe you can do a get ready with me makeup tutorial 🤗
LOVE all your vids Thank You 💕
Do you recommend any LED/UV nail lamps? Or which kind do you use?
Does it matter if you use the pink powder or the clear powder? Is there a difference?
Do you prefer MiaSecret over YN? (Young Nails)
Where do you get the bags that you put the cuticle pushers and stuff like that? I have clients and can’t find those bags anywhere
Tabitha Fox Amazon , look up sterilization pouch .
www.amazon.com/Self-Sterilization-Pouches-Cleaning-Sterilizer-Offices/dp/B07D96GT8X/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=sterilizer+bags&qid=1563318409&s=gateway&sprefix=sterili&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1
With the madamglam gel polish to you need the UV light to cure it?
Can you do a polishing tutorial? Gel and regular?
So for a beginner, you don’t need a UV Curing Lamp unless u are doing GEL polish?
Can you do pedicure videos I’m obsessed with the last one you did lol
Did you ever find out where you got your nail dust brush from? Can you start selling them on you website when you get it back up and running?
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Great video as always.
Your channel is so helpful 😍Does it matter if you use pink clear or white powder?
So when you use the gel polish, what led light do you use?
You’re so helpful !!!! Thank you!
I love your videos! Question how much would this all cost? (Estimated)
Hi Natalie I have a question, will I need a uv light to dry my gel top coat? ??
Can you do a video on how to start building up your nail art stuff and what gel colors to begin with. I’m staring to do nails and I get overwhelmed by what I should get.
Which lamp do you use? I love your videos💕
A UV/LED light for the gel polishes 😊
And the big duster brush they use after drilling the hell out of your nails 😁
I’m done fucking around, time for me to start my journey. Thank you so much for the info!
You use pink powder to encapsulate?
Yes it’s really translucent
I have a question I'm left handed and I just ordered this drill but ho do I use It do i use te forward or the reverse ?
good. I’ve been looking for STRAIGHT nail tips. found some on amazon, clear extra long! 🔥 & I’ll also be ordering some from your site.
Do you switch out your monomer and polymer for each client?
LOVE YOU NATALI ❤️❤️❤️❤️
