I might have to try this kit 🤔... I bought the beetles kit after your review. I prepped my nails really well and used the young nails protein bond. Those bad boys stayed on for over 2 weeks!! They probably would've stayed on for 3 weeks, but I got bored so I took them off lol
Stick w/them. This kit DOESN'T seem like ah HIT 😂
That’s the only problem, I want a change too quick 😂😂
I love those
the same thing happened to me lol i always get bored and take my nails off too soon
I watched the video and I bought the beetles kit the lamp actually does go off after 30 seconds.
Can I just say that you are quickly becoming my most favorite channel on all of RUclips?! Not only are you teaching me how to do some thing that I have always wanted to do, but your videos are so relaxing and natural. I genuinely feel like it’s a friend sending me a video of them doing their nails to help me learn, which is rare on this platform as of late. Thank you for everything that you do! It really is appreciated. I hope you and your family have a great holiday!
Cute comment that I totally feel ❤
Definitely feel this!
I couldn’t agree more!!!!!! Love how real this woman is
I love how your outfits give subtle hints about the design. It's subtle enough that my guesses are in the ballpark, but I'm still surprised. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to you!
So true
Whaaat! I never noticed that oh that is so cute
How did her outfit hint the nails I don't see it?
@@rebeccalazzell5262 they always match her outfit.
How does this nail set match her outfit?
I really appreciate how you show the process of trying something new, making mistakes, and figuring out how to correct it.
Can you try the Saviland gel x dupe? It’s $22 and comes with primer, prep, glitter/rhinestones, a clipper and on top of that the nail tips are matte inside so they don’t have to be filed. I want it but I’m like 👀 it’s too good to be true, right?
woah the matte idea is genius. i wish every brand did that because some nails are so small that i can’t go in and scratch them up
Where did you see that? Saviland is a pretty solid brand but the kit I see only has the glue, lamp and tips for 20
@@pinkfeet518 Makartt has some with the matte inside as well, going to be the next ones I try as it's such a great idea
@@AbsoluteApril its such a little thing to add but its a GENIUS idea! thank you so much for letting me know. im def gonna try them next time i need to purchase nails
Gellen has an amazing full kit with everything included and the tips included are matte or shiny.
I love these review videos so much! I do my nails 24/7 but I'm on a budget and it's great to know what cheaper things are worth the money. Thanks for the videos! ❤
The fact that you're left handed, but can use your right hand to do detailed art and nails😍 I wish either of my hands would be so steady lol!
Guuuuurl!! You're my nail mentor lol I'm learning to use different techniques and using different mediums because of you and I just really appreciate the time you take to do allllll these AWESOME videos. I am learning so much...thank you!!!
The design came out cute, practice makes perfect. Love that shimmery red
Yay, a new LHPN video! Love your vibe, Evie. I love nails, but honest, I watch your videos at times to help me relax. Anxiety sucks
This set is so cute. I love the gingerbread man. Thank you for sharing your wonderful designs.
Evie: it’s a cookie so it doesn’t have to be perfect
Also Evie: *does it perfect*
Lol love you girl!! You’re always my inspo when I do my nails!
Happy holidays Evie. I am so addicted to your channel. Love all the products that you put up here for the newbies, as well as professionals. Most of the prices are really reasonable and the products are really good. I love your honesty on the products too. I put my money on LHPN when it comes to purchasing. Thank you and many blessings to you and your beautiful family.
The review videos r so helpful coz even when ur doing ur own nails it can get a bit pricey so I'm always glad to see u test out products n give ur feedback on the product.
I love how you always try new things and let your honest opinion about different brands!
You are just a fresh breath of sunshine. Thanks for sharing your videos! Your gingerbread man looked so festive! Looking forward to the next time. 🎄🎄🎄
Omg I’m so glad I stumbled across your channel. I love that you don’t over explain, your voice is soothing and your saving me money. I really appreciate what you do and thanks for the content.
So glad to see you again loved the live can’t wait to hang out again thanks for sharing Happy Sunday and Happy Holidays let’s see how this works for you I saw your Xmas decorations and your house looks beautiful
Mr. Gingerbread just got off a 12 hour shift, but he’s still cute 🥺
I bought this kit because of your review and that I like the way the lap looks. I saw your update about the nails, so I went to do mine. It's been a week and 2 days, and they are still on. I'm so happy that you did this video because everyone loves my nails. 🥰 Thank you so much.
These are so so cute! That sparkly red color is perfect and I love the gingerbread man🥰😍 I have the same mini nail lamp and it's the easiest one I've used for gelly tips! Also it's soooo satisfying when the top coat has a clear brush, it looks so good when you apply it and can see the nail under🥰😅
I tried the modelones kit similar to this and the nail tips were flimsy too. They popped right off a few days later even after proper prep. The beetles kit has to be my favorite! They last forever.
I’m glad you posted this comment. I just got the beetles kit for my Christmas nails.
@@Alicia-yd3zn it works amazing! I did my moms and she had them on for over a month.
I only have the Beetles ones. If you etch them and use a dehydrator, primer, and base coat they stay PUT. I love my Beetles tips. I just wish I could buy individual sizes. I will never use the tiny ones. My nails are huge.
@@jrdale i did that with the modelones. Did not work. I love the beetles ones.
@@yenimaduena4108 I am quickly learning that Modelones has good polish, but the rest is meh
Got this product 3 weeks ago, and I absolutely loved the lamp. I also like the stones, it's a little better than the usual free stone with kits. Worth the money to me.😉
These nails turned out so pretty and the gingerbread man is cute and sparkly. I love it!!!
These last couple of week been rough but your energy is so calming so when you upload I just sit and watch and learn. I appreciate that! Always smiling always creative I love to that!!!!!! Thank you for being a bright spot in my day when you upload. You do a great job aaaaaaaaaaaaaand I be doing my own nails and they be FIRE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☺️so thanks for that too sis! Merry Christmas!
I had to come and ty. I know I've said it before but I am 41 and have never so much as even had my nails done in a salon. Recently I started doing acrylics I started with using them over full tips and then finally did them just using tips. My first try and I've had many women asking me where I got them done. I even got the highest compliment coming from 3 of the actresses from the TV show Supernatural this past weekend 🙌
You and few other great lady's here on Utube have thought me so much already. Once again THANK YOU!!!!
Loving that green jacket on u. Or whatever it’s called it’s just flow with u so well. Thank you evie and ur hubby Marcus for getting me through day to day in this crazy world right now .. yes I’m here for the live. I love y’all honesty n jokes lol
“The thickness is thin” lol!! I don’t know why but I died laughing 😂😂
I gotta see this, cuz I bought the Beetles apres dupe and it was bomb. Thank you for always coming through with the reviews for us!!
Thank you for always being my go-to person for honest reviews!
I’m in love this ! I really can’t wait to try mine out. Your nails come out so beautiful 😍
Unbeknownst to me my13 y.o. granddaughter has been following you for a couple of years. I was talking about her following you because you are easy to understand and very informative. You are such an inspiration to her and she has learned so much from you! Thank you for what you do! Keep up the good work!
You’re my absolute favorite RUclipsr! You have inspired me to do my own nails! I’ve watched your channel for almost three years! You’re the best!!😊♥️♥️♥️
I love this kind of system for nails especially for beginners! I stopped doing my own nails but you’ve inspired me to give it a try again😊 love your videos.
Also I saw that Makartt made something like this too
I so love to see Sailor Moon things when I watch your videos!! The crystal dappen dish (that's totally the silver crystal) and now the pocket watch!! I've always wanted one! Moonies uniteeee
Also, I almost bought that kit a few days ago. In the product description it says that the tips are acrylic. The Beetles kit is acrylic also. I was really hoping to find one that was not too expensive, but had the soft gel tips. I ended up having to buy everything separate and then I just use the Beetles lamp to put them on.
I love love your videos so much, you have inspired me in so many ways to start doing my own nails watching your videos really gives me hope that I can do my own nails I love you so much and keep up the amazing work and keep surprising us with your outstanding nail skills
You inspire me to start doing my own nails🥰 they never come out how I want them at the salon and it’s so expensive!! So thank you so much for showing us how to do our own nails because these salons just treat us like a number and get angry when you ask them to change something haha. Love your videos and thanks again girly 🥰💓🙌
Just purchased the coffin and the short square set. I’m excited to try them out. Love the review! ❤️💕
Hi Evie, I just wanted to say I absolutely love your videos, your vibes and energy are fantastic 🙌💞 Your videos make my day so much better and I've even started learning how to do my own nails from your content. I started an Instagram account a few weeks ago and just done my first set of dip powder nails tonight and they turned out really good for a first try!! 😊 Thank you so much for everything and keep do your thing gurl, haha 💕
Whats your Instagram? I will follow you girly
Good afternoon Evie!! I'm so happy Everytime I see a new video!! Cannot wait to watch this!
I watch your videos all the time honestly love you so much and you’ve helped me so much with nails and saw this and I understand your struggle with drawing on a nail spend so long doing my Christmas set and my ginger bread nail had loosing my minddd 🤣
I go to your videos every time I’m thinking of trying a new type of nails. I’ve been wanting to try this method and here you are right on time lol.
I love your show! I learn so much, especially since I just started doing my nails at home! Thank you so much, keep making those shows for us to learn about nails!
I love that you try things out for us and give us feedback AND new ideas!!!!
I love your videos! 💖 I used to be nervous about doing too much with my cuticles too🙈, I'm still too chicken to nip them myself, but I've been pushing them back and using a primer coat and I've noticed they look much neater and last longer.💅🏾 Thank you for sharing your tips and for the great content!🤩 Looking forward to more of your live videos🤗
🎄I love the gingerbread man!🎄He’s so cute! I swear, you reminded me of myself doing those tiny lines and mixing steps around!😂🤣 I’m always like, “Dang! I forgot to--! “Shoot! I meant to--! It’s so funny!
I have this kit, it came from the double dip mystery box back in September. Bellavena and double dip are sister companies. I love how easy this kit is to use.
Edit: also the tips are NOT plastic they are indeed made of gel
Perfect timing! Just took a pizza break from doing my own nails and I have a great video to watch while I'm eating. Hope you and the family have a great holiday!
EVIE, I love your hair girl you are looking beautiful as always. Thank you so much for these informative videos and trying these kits so that we don't have too. I appreciate it.
Im livinnnnnggg for these dupes videos!! I was literally just looking at this product the other day , I’m always scared to purchase something and it not be worth it , thank you soooo much for thiss
I bought the beetles one after your review and I've been loving it. I can't do acrylics yet, haven't even tried. But those are so quick and easy. I think I just love all of beetles stuff. I have their polygels and dip powders too. Not a fan of saviland dip powders.
Love LOVE the channel! I'll look out for the next livestream!
Happy Holidays!💅🏾💕🎄
Omg girl ur hair is gorgeous!! Great video as always, love ur lil gingerbread man ☺Merry Christmas to you and your family! 😘
I really need RUclips to get my notifications straight!!! I love the Beetles gel tips and that’s all I have been using. Can’t wait for an update on this set
Never ending amounts of different nail kits wow awesome loving your designs my daughter loves watching with me she even says back hey ya’ll to the tv lol
I do love Double Dip liquids for swatching or for the rare times I use dip lowers with liquids and not gel, but come on....keep your brand "on brand" instead of confusing the buyer with another name and reading the fine print to realize "I know that brand!" This does seem like the only full cover gel kit where you don't have to press down to keep the air bubbles out! Great video as always!
I’ve used Double Dip for two years and adopted their Magic Gelly Nails Kit as soon as they released.
I get the separate sized boxes from their store-they go as small as 11!!
The mini kit is too big on my pinky too lol
Man i have tiny nails and use 8 and 9 for sizes. 11 is so tiny!
I just found your channel and subscribed after watching the Beetles tip video. Your natural nails look so healthy. I'm definite going to binge out on your channel for me tips and advice. Haha! This is great content. Thank you.
I've been waiting so long for this!
It’s so refreshing to see seasoned RUclipsrs mess up on nails. I made the same exact mistake with glitter on my nails on a few of my videos & I know EXACTLY how you felt about that dang gingerbread man lol. I have a video scheduled to come out on Christmas with a gingerbread man & that lil bastard STRESSED ME TF OUT lol. I LOVE your videos & you inspired me to start my lil RUclips channel. Thank you so much!!!!
I have been using the Apres and Beetles, only difference I notice is you have more options of nail type of nail shapes--ie, short, long round etc with the Apres kit.. but basically they are the same. This one seems like a good dupe too! I loved your Gingerbread Man!!
Can you use apres with beetles glue …?
@@araara61 Yes!!!
@@tammyholt1798 Thank you ☺️
@@araara61 You're so very welcome, merry Christmas!!
So the beetles one is good to get??
Happy holidays! Love your channel! 🥰
I learned some things from this video. I have been using the Beetles kit for a very long time doing my nails at home, but I LOVE the on off switch on this lamp. And even though I've been doing my nails this way for 2 years, I NEVER thought of just brushing the overspilled gel out underneath! I always just use my bit and drill it out! I think you have sensitive nail beds too - I love the thought of that little gel lamp! Might pull the trigger on this.
Loving all these vids!!!! Perfect for a Sunday afternoon!!
Posted 24 minutes ago!!!! I love your videos so much, keep up the good work girlie!
You always do a good job I love seeing your videos. I’m glad you got the poly gel in I ordered some. Thank you for sharing your video 🙏🏾🙌🏾😇🥰
All time favorite nail youtuber i loveeeee your videos soo much ❤️❤️
Maybe the flimsy ones will work better for me. I have extremely flat nail beds and the full cover tips have started to pull up my nail plate from my natural nail bed. (I think I’m saying that right) Ive never had that problem until I started wearing these.
You may be using too small of a tip or not enough gel and too much pressure. You should be able to use really sculpted ones on flat nail beds as long as it’s not too tight or pinching. I’ve heard of this happening though! I’ve done it to myself with regular tips because they had too much of a c curve and I forced it down😅
@@Naomi-nx7nd thAnks for the tip. I’ll try using more gel and not so much pressure next time.
I want the kit for the rhinestones alone 🤣 I'm trying this solid gel glue for these tips and see how it works out.
Evie, your style is soooo cute! Everything on ur channels are a vibe!
Haha your struggle gingerbread man is my forever holiday mascot 🤣🤣 love your videos!
I love this set it’s so pretty.
I bought the Beetles tip kit and with the prep techniques used for Apres tips they worked great and lasted really well. I could have done a fill, but I took them off to do gels, then acrylics. I should have payed attention to that model ones acrylic review by though. The white was watery and the clear yellowed.
Checking in not a bot Evie love your work since swisher nails. I been following you for a while now. Love how much you grown. Happy Holidays ☃️💅
Truly inspiring! Love it when you try stuff out!
Thankyou for all you do! Inspire me so much! So grateful people like you exist lol learning so much! 🌈💅🏻💖👍
I love these nails and your design. I also had some trouble with nail art. With the line work I switched to the longer line brush instead of the short one and it made a big difference. Try and see if that helps. Love ya
My favorite channel on RUclips, I’ve been binge watching your vids for weeks ❤️💯 love from Jamaica 🇯🇲
Learning how to do my nails at home and you are the only one on RUclips I trust!
These are adorable you killed it i love the little gingerbread man he's so cute😋😋😋😍😍
Another video? That's three in one week! You are spoiling us and I'm loving it😊
Sis thank you for showing and Kudos to you for doing a gingerbread man because it was better than I would have done with no nails. Your doing great.
I bought this kit before I stumbled upon this video. I like it. I'm not one for long nails because I work alot with my hands, but my nails r weak and break easily, so I turn to artificial nails. I like the kit, the nails are strong and durable for me and last through some tough work, though I've had to take off 2 sets already because I didnt know you had to blend the cuticle area after application. Kept getting my hair caught when they would grow out. I'm on my third set and so far after the cuticle blend, they are growing out nicely. So, now I can really see how long I can have them on before having to take them off or if they break.
These tips are gel tips! Someone taught me the other day that if you fold a plastic tip in half, the crease stays, and is white and won’t go away. But if you fold the gel tips in half, the white will go away and you won’t see the crease! I tried it on these tips and it worked! My plastic tips continued to stay white and the Bellavina didn’t. They are gel tips!
I just reviewed this same kit!
Loving it,4 in 1 is a star⭐
Great video friend!
My 2 year old loves to watch your videos with me. She calls you my 'nail teacher.'
Okay but. ..I'm addicted to your videos! Please more reviews of kits!
Love these😍 When I do nail art I use a longer nail art brush which is much better for nail art
I just got this!! So glad you did a review 🙌🙌
Dont care how gingerbread trun out, the important thing you re a very nice person , your voice is so calming, thank you and happy holidays❤️
I love your personality. I'm ready to try gel x nails, so I'm just watching videos on the different brands on Amazon. Thank you for your info. I'll be watching more of your videos.
I love your product reviews, they are very helpful.
I just did my first set of full coverage tips (really any nails) on my own after watching your video on here and Snapchat stories! My only issue is I struggled getting a good seal between the tip and my nail. I definitely had air bubbles. Not sure what I was doing wrong. I have small nail beds and they are flat so I think the more flexible trips might work. I’m hoping they last! You are great at doing nails though!
I saw this kit some time back but I haven't gotten it yet, good thing you're reviewing it to see if it's better that the beetles one. Because I was going to buy it to test the same theory.
Your ginger bread man was so cute! Well done!👍❤️💅
Thanks for giving us another option to Apex nails. Also I manage to get 16days out of beetles while I was on vacation. Then I got a week out of them at work, but I use my hands at work to lift heavy objects are 50lbs and they pretty much got knocked clean off my fingers. But no damages to my nails it just left glue marks.
I got this, with a set of square tips i can’t wait to try ittt
I love what you do I’m actually going to school for it and you have made me love it even more
The swatch on top of the polish lids is a GAME CHANGER!!! (I wish you could do my nails right about now. Acrylic and an e-file is probably not the thing to do when drinking adult beverages. Nothing. Good. Ever. Happens. In. January.)
