I see you use lots of E Nail Couture. I will NOT order from him ever again because it took between 60 - 90+ days to receive orders. But the primary reason I will not order is because they do NOT answer emails regarding delivery. No refunds or response. Have you not had that happen? If not, do you receive promo boxes? Just super frustrated because he has lots of things I would order if receipt were reasonable.
I won’t ever order from him as well.after 2 months on waiting on my package I had 6 pack of nails missing.I filed a complaint with bbb and my bank.and I’m not going to stop till I get my money back
Yes, I’ve actually waited months for my orders as well but I honestly don’t care when I get it as long as I get it without damages. He sent me stuff one time with my order but I also had waited 3 mnts. It is ridiculous and I totally understand hun. I’m so sorry you’ve had a bad experience with them. Thanks 😍
@@Babygirlnails thanks for your input. It is frustrating, I didn’t want to stop buying his products but I can’t take the the discourtesy of the company. Thanks for answering.
Beautiful nails! I will be purchasing that lamp stand from Amazon! I’ve been looking for a stand for my UV mini lamps for a min! I can’t wait to try out the pump ups ! I’ve been using apres . Thank you ! New sub 😃
Totally waiting for the Aprés Color Extend Gel review... but, I've upped my prep game, changed to YN Protein Bond, and started using the Aprés Extend Gel. Now I only get lifting if I have an air bubble (and sometimes even then they don't lift). Thanks for your reviews and tutorials! ❤❤❤
I actually don’t have those Apres Colors just yet. I bet they are nice. I’ve heard a lot of great things about them. Happy my reviews help ya huni. Thanks so much for watching.
Looking forward to your analysis! Also, I’m impressed at your commitment to 2 weeks wear for us. I’m a nail hobbyist, and being able to try new things on my nails means I’m already thinking about the next thing even as I’m working on my current nails. 😂
Which builder gel do you think is the best ? Apres or enailcouture or the gel resin that you also used from Amazon I want to buy the one that lasts the longest
You may have the wrong lamp. You could possibly have a UV gel and the lamp is LED. Make sure to buy you a dual lamp with led/uv so it will cure all gels. They have good ones on Amazon. Or use my Enail Couture code Babygirl10 if ur in the US and get the dazzling darling lamp. I use it and it takes 60sec.
@@Babygirlnails I fond a dupe for it on Amazon, they look exactly the same and the wats are the same. The Amazon is cheaper and come in 2 colors and 2 days.
Sorry hun. It’s Enail coutures new gel they have to adhere these but you don’t need that. You can use any builder gel in the bottle or pot that’s preferably soak off. I used to use Orly builder in a bottle from Amazon and it worked amazing. Thanks
Good morning, to my nail guru. I love that you answer all my questions. You are fabulous! I do prime and prep, But I do not to the nail tip on top. Is the top hell I just file a lil.
@@BillCipher84882 So you apply tips right? Those should be blended to match the natural nail and the shine should be buffed off. Then you can apply base.
It's supposed to be 1-12 or something like that but I have been told there are more of certain sizes than others. Yeah, they all have a size but not in the case. lol
I'm super happy with my Apres Stilleto which are more like an almond btw lol...the only downside with them (any gel product) is the damned heat spike...my nail tech started back yay so I have pretty nail's again...thankyou for sharing Jaimie stay safe xo 💜💅💜
I also saw someone’s video where they said they didn’t get 12 sizes, but I just got my set today and there are twelve sizes (0-11). They must have gotten a faulty set or makartt changed it
Yes I sure can. I actually have a removal video and it’s the same process for all these types of nails if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/NjKjt2l6ioA/видео.html
@@Babygirlnails I did take them all out of all 3 sets I got and check them (yeah I am just that way) as it said 12 sizes. The slot sizes are smaller than in the Apres boxes so 4 and 5 take up 2 each
How lovely it is for you to share all the goodies and fantastic advice! BRAVO ! I hope all is well and good as Always, May The Almighty Father And Son Keep You And Your House ~
I'm lovet apres-x because you now thet l lovet coffee shep on stale to nails tip's and I am enoj in your new video me sweetheart sis 😘 love you ❤️❤️❤️ have blass day you to sis
People need to remember these are tips. You build on tips. Of course they'll bend. Thanks for the vid sis! I love them but uuuuuhg I cant pay more than $12 for tips
Glad ya liked it. I didn't build on these tips and so far so good. I don't normally build on the Apres nails either. Now if they were only nail tips I would. Tfw gal
Not the way makartt is advertising them. They are supposed to be press on nails. Not nails you build on. But of course, if you want them to last longer you should build up strength with gel/acrylic.
@@mollyoxy I have a video coming where I don’t build them up at all. But yes you can with the longer gel nails for added strength like you said. Thanks sweetheart

@@sadiegaray just file a dispute with your credit card... the bbb can't do much of anything.
Hi can you use any brand soak off base or builder gel? I want to use jimmy gel by light elegance. Just want to make sure the product will fully cure.
Yes, absolutely!!!
Love your tutorial!!! Great step-by-step instructions! Awesome!!!
Thanks so much!
They both look amazing, great video hun ,would love to try them but out of my prices range, tysmfs take care,stay safe 💜💜🥰🥰🙏

Is that a polish holder for your flashlight? Sorry for the billion questions
Yes it is. Thanks
What a great 💡 idea!!!!!!
Great comparison! They both look very pretty on. 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you! 🤗
Tfs! I ordered same tips from markartt but hadn't used yet.
Hope you like it!
Yes I can't wait til mine are here to try!!! Also I did not know til now that I wasn't a IG follower. So pretty!!!😍😍😍😍
Yay! Thank you!
Yeah! Thanks so much! The largest was too small for my fat thumb. Would it be ok to fill the bare section with more base gel?
You sure could. Not sure how they would wear but you can always try it. tfw

Oh thank you!
Thank you for doing this test. I think it is going to be interesting. Stay safe and healthy.
Thanks Kathy
This is really a great concept!!! Love it❤️
Glad you liked it. tfw
Oh yes girl been waiting on this video for sure:)

Which builder gel do you think is the best ? Apres or enailcouture or the gel resin that you also used from Amazon I want to buy the one that lasts the longest
I would try Apres or Enail Couture. Plus I have a discount code Babygirl10 for ENC if you wanna try the clear press on gel. I think you’d like it.
Were the sizes matching up. Example apres size 4 would be really close to size 4 in the Makartt nails?
It seemed like Makartt was a bit smaller but not by much. Very close in comparison.
@@Babygirlnails great. Thank you. That was helpful.
Welcome sweetie
Great video.
With a dehydrator is it a must or can you just use acetone to get rid of the natural oils on the nail bed?
You can actually make your own dehydrator with 50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% acetone. Works like a charm.
I got the new flashy lamp 2020 addition as well...I couldn’t help myself lol
P.S. where did you get your flashy lamp holder???
I’ve got links for the holder in my description box sweetheart. I just love the new flashy too. Thanks
Hi, builder takes an hour in my 32w 12 LED lamp. What am I doing wrong?
You may have the wrong lamp. You could possibly have a UV gel and the lamp is LED. Make sure to buy you a dual lamp with led/uv so it will cure all gels. They have good ones on Amazon. Or use my Enail Couture code Babygirl10 if ur in the US and get the dazzling darling lamp. I use it and it takes 60sec.
@@Babygirlnails wow, I knew something was wrong .lol
I'm freaking waiting and waiting. Lol😝🤣
@@BillCipher84882 Haha yeah it happened to me when I was just getting into gels. Let me know how it goes hun.
Can u do a video reviewing enailcouter lamp.
I can talk about it in a future video for sure. tfw
@@Babygirlnails I fond a dupe for it on Amazon, they look exactly the same and the wats are the same. The Amazon is cheaper and come in 2 colors and 2 days.
@@Peaceful4627 Awesome 😎
Thank you!! I was thinking of buying the apres tips but knowing these are cheaper and great quality I’ll go with makatt. 😄
You’re welcome sweetheart. I have a code you can use it’s Babygirlnails
Love watching your videos tysmfs 💙 💛
Glad you like them!
What’s the bend test for
Just to see how flexible they both are I’m guessing. Someone wanted to see it. Lol 😂
Great video! What’s the difference in using the gel instead of a nail glue? Is it stronger or less damaging?
It’s a lot stronger and the nails stay on longer. Glad ya liked it.
I can never catch what the gel is she uses to adhere the nails. Click the link and it’s just a website. Help!!
Sorry hun. It’s Enail coutures new gel they have to adhere these but you don’t need that. You can use any builder gel in the bottle or pot that’s preferably soak off. I used to use Orly builder in a bottle from Amazon and it worked amazing. Thanks
The primer that you are using, is it acid free?
I don’t believe it is hun. Thanks for watching 💖
I am super new to your channel. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ I am also a nail newbie. I get the nails to purchase but what gel adhesive and primer do you recommend?
I emailed ya doll. You know that already though..LOL Thanks for subscribing and welcome.
@@Babygirlnails you’re the best!!!
Hi beautiful 😍, Quick? Do you ever use acrylics or hard gel? Just curious. Great info ty
Yes and I have videos way back on both. I used acrylic not to long ago and I started using hard gel when I transferred to gel. Thanks
Loving your videos I’ve used 123 go and just clear Chinese brand nails lol. Now that I love this technique I will order some others
Thanks so much for watching. Appreciate it. I also have a code for Enail Couture if you need it. It’s Babygirl10 and Babygirlnails for Makartt.
@@Babygirlnails thank you
Buff and shine natural nail before prep n prime?
Yes absolutely!!
Good morning, to my nail guru. I love that you answer all my questions. You are fabulous! I do prime and prep, But I do not to the nail tip on top. Is the top hell I just file a lil.
@@BillCipher84882 So you apply tips right? Those should be blended to match the natural nail and the shine should be buffed off. Then you can apply base.
Are the makart GEL nails or regular plastic but full coverage? Thnx
I did a full review on these and it’s posted in the cards. It’s a must see video. I’m almost sure they are gel.
If you look at the numbers on the Makarrt tips you will see there are doubles of some sizes therefore there are not 12 separate sizes.
Yeah someone else told me about it. Thanks sweetheart
What gel adhesive do you use?
Sorry I didn't list it. enailcouture.com/products/press-on-gel-123go-nails?_pos=1&_sid=d9b7ab908&_ss=r
Makartt didn't label the sizes on the extensions?
It's supposed to be 1-12 or something like that but I have been told there are more of certain sizes than others. Yeah, they all have a size but not in the case. lol
I'm super happy with my Apres Stilleto which are more like an almond btw lol...the only downside with them (any gel product) is the damned heat spike...my nail tech started back yay so I have pretty nail's again...thankyou for sharing Jaimie stay safe xo 💜💅💜
Haha I know gal. I hate heat spikes..LOL SO happy she is back. YAYYYYY pretty nails again..Haha
I also didn't get 12 sizes 4 and 5 were doubled
Yeah someone else told me that too. Thanks sweetheart
I bought the Markartt. I didn't get 12 sizes. I went through each slot. Lots of 4, 5, and 6. Not enough 0, 7 or 8. I received sizes 0-9.
Yeah someone else told me the same thing. I’ll have to look through mine. It’s probably the same thing. Thanks sweetheart
@@Babygirlnails But aside from that, I honestly love them!
@@mccoll7 Yeah same here. Thanks 😍
I also saw someone’s video where they said they didn’t get 12 sizes, but I just got my set today and there are twelve sizes (0-11). They must have gotten a faulty set or makartt changed it
They were telling me yesterday that yes there are 12 slots but there are dupes of some of the sizes I guess hun.
Can you show how to safely remove these please?
Yes I sure can. I actually have a removal video and it’s the same process for all these types of nails if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/NjKjt2l6ioA/видео.html
Both look fab 😍
Thanks so much
Are the makartt made of gel?
I’m almost 💯 positive they are. Did you watch my full review comparison video? It shows a lot of tests. Thanks
@@Babygirlnails yes, I did. I was just wondering if they were gel or not. I wish they were clear though.
@@OmneyasWISH I’m pretty sure they are or they are something very similar to gel. It soaks faster than gel. Lol Crazy
@@Babygirlnails oh, cool. Thanks
Both looking pretty good Jamie. Be great to see how they wear. ❤️❤️
Thanks Diana
12 Slots in the box, but only 10 sizes - 0 to 9
Oh okay. I thought that’s what you had said but they looked different. I was so confused. 😂😂😂
@@Babygirlnails I did take them all out of all 3 sets I got and check them (yeah I am just that way) as it said 12 sizes. The slot sizes are smaller than in the Apres boxes so 4 and 5 take up 2 each
@@5MinuteNailArt Oh thank you for letting me know. I’ll update that in my next update.
I got mine today and I got sizes 0-11
I’m in love with the apex of Makartt! Apres looked a little flat!
Thanks Jenn
I think she's using the natural tips and they are flatter, the sculpted are higher
I like both
Thanks
