Bunny Runner I was thinking the exact same thing !!! Like, she rarely posts, but when she does, YOU KNOW that you’re going to get some good, not half-assed content. 👌🏻👌🏻
If I put that many layers of polish, it literally never dries completely and 5 hours later I would have dents and skratches on my nails. This only looks good if you don't touch anything.
@@yeah3771 no she has gel on top i am a nail tech 😃 i see that from miles away. But she has no tip extension under it so yeah under the gel it is her actual nail 😉
RUclips can be such a time black hole but your videos pack such a punch in information VALUE! I always leave feeling enlightened. Thank you Alexandra! :)
Everyone saying this won’t dry in time I’m letting you know this technique worked for me. I tweaked it a little. Instead of a thick base coat I did a thin one and painted on my white tip for my French manicure like normal. The only time I did 2 thick coats was the final high shine top coat. This way it still takes long to dry but is manageable. I highly suggest you do it during the day or 5+ hours before you go to bed to prevent the dents and moving of the nail polish. Ideally during the morning. Other than that, this is totally worth it. This is what makes my home manicures last 2 weeks or more. That and reapplying a thin top coat 2-3 days after. The whole process takes 2 hours and the rest is just waiting for it to dry. And basically being very careful with using them while they dry. When you do things yourself it’s much cheaper but takes more time to do. When you pay someone to do it it costs more and I’m on a budget! I’m willing to sacrifice time by doing it myself for the same results I get at the salon. Remember that everything takes practice. Including doing your nails and finding the technique that works for you. It took me months to make my manicure last as long as it does and look good too. It’s worth it if you want it to be :)
Thank you so much for this comment. There's a lot of mean people in the comments, and after reading them I got really discouraged. Your comment gave me a new boost! I never did my nails at a salon, and in my country gel nails are absurdly expensive. I'll try your tips right now!!
by spending 2 hours to do them yourself and 5+ hrs to wait for them to dry, you could have worked, made the money to get them professionally done with gel, and still had time left over to make more money. A salan visit for gel mani is $40 at most and only takes an hour.
@@JerseyAccent653 Well, maybe, but what if you enjoy doing your nails during your free time ? Just turn on Netflix and start painting your nails, you'll have a lovely sunday morning :)

Sarah Kasangana I started applying castor oil to my nails and massaging them before bed about a 3 weeks ago and I haven’t broken a nail since! They’ve also been growing faster
deedee doremus I agree with castor oil. I’ve never had problems growing my nails long and keeping them that way. But a couple of weeks ago I thought about using castor oil on my nails and it works fantastic as a moisturizer. My nail polish is drying faster and it’s lasted 2 weeks without any chipping, peeling etc. My nails grow fast so I’m going to have to change it just because of nail growth.
So pretty. But I feel like that would take ages to dry! Maybe something is wrong with my nails, I just do one layer and a topcoat and although I wait like half an hour for it to dry I always end up messing it up somehow. So I can only imagine what a mess I would make if I used that technique.
Well I've been experimenting tonight and found that although after half an hour your nail is dry to the touch and feels smooth and ready to go, it's actually very far from completely dry. With any kind of real pressure or hard buffing that apparently dry nail suddenly reveals itself to be dry only on the surface but underneath it is still very wet and soft. I've been waiting a couple of hours now and my nails are still not completely dry. I know because they are still giving off fumes/smell. I'm pretty sure they will only be completely dry once not giving off any further odour (seems logical). so yeah, I can see why everyone is going for gels lol.
Rachel J yeah, she thick! It’s going to take a lot longer than 10 mins to dry all those thick coats of polish. You don’t need all that polish to make it look like gel, just buy a high shine top coat. I think her main goal was to actually make it look thick like it was a cheap gel mani.
I had the same problem for YEARS, you just need the right top coat. After trying many many MANY different ones the only too coat that works for me is by glisten and glow. Definitely worth a shot trying. I buy at least 3 at a time so I always have them.
To my opinion this woman is the best beauty guru in youtube...forward to the point and all her tips are useful!!!! I wish to you to be happy with your life....
Wash hands, completely dry nail plate, moisturize hands, dehydrate nails, THICC base coat twice, 10 mins wait add 3 if room is warm, use CREAMY polish, apply THICC layer of polish flip nail over to let polish level out, let dry for 10-15 mins, cause of GIRL CODE apply another THICC layer of polish, (top coat optional), Clean cuticles, moisturize cuticles.
Saachi .S actually, in professional manicures, (which I do a lot because I’m into aesthetic work) the massage goes with the cream, which is always before the polish is applied, and then you use nail polish remover to remove any lotion left on your nails! :) but yes the polish could peal off pretty easily.
Oh my these nails tho 😍. Also I love how she says at the end "thumbs up if you liked it and thumbs down if you didn't", it shows that she doesn't just care about the likes and instead cares more about her viewers actual opinions. What a queen!
love that she keeps her videos short and too the point without any extra fluff or unnecessary explanations. almost every beauty youtuber has 5 min long intros, saying things like "this is my makeup bag. I use it to store my makeup" So props to you, Alexandra!! So happy i found your channel
Omg I am shook! I have never thought about the top coat base!! After I've had a bad irritation due to gel I only use regular polish which is by no means the same in thickness and glossiness. Thank you so much! I would love to see a dark winter colour on your nails as well😍
Avoid hand sanitizers and grocery store cart wipes! They have high alcohol content so they dry and peel our nails. They get so brittle they break easy. Use regular soap/water to sanitize hands. Also, when washing dishes and your hair, use gloves. Our nails get soft when they are in water alot..👍
@@MT-uo3lq thankyou for this information which reminds me washing hair with hot water and having the heating on too much is reason why hair thins and falls.
She does have a layer of acrylic, gel or some type of dip powder over her nails, which makes the polishes apply smoother, dry much quicker, and it makes the end result generally look much more polished than if it were on a natural nail.
I always let my nail polishes dry for AGGGGES but it always has dents in it anyways and idl what im droing wrong. Like there a fingerprints and nail imprints
I like to get a movie on netflix going, I paint my nails then sit and watch the movie. Half way through put on that top coat and finish the movie. Works everytime for me :0)
It really helps to have a fast-drying top coat. I use Seche Vive (not Vite) cause it magically makes all my nail polish layers dry quickly + leaves a gel effect too 🤓
The only problem I find with this is that the more product you add the more chances are the manicure gets all smudged after a few hours. It happens to me all the time. I'm always very generous when applying nail polish but it's almost impossible to make it last for more than 3 hours. I use a drying top coat but with this amount of product is not enough. Do you guys know any tips? :(
vagrantones The key is using rubbing alcohol to remove oils and then a base coat and topcoat. Trust me. I used to be scared to add more layers of polish wig base coats and tops coats but that actually makes it dry quicker. I didn’t believe it either till I tried it and now I have perfect manicures in 15 minutes. Don’t wait in between coats though and I wouldn’t do 2 coats of a base. This is what works for me
@@deenad3562 just get gel nail polish it's not expensive and it saves alot of money and time when you invest in doing your nails at home instead of spending 30+ dollars for something you can do at home.

I did this technique, and I love the result! I applied 2 generous coats of clear gloss base coat, and held each hand upside down to center the polish. I applied a chrome rose gold polish on the nail tips to make a "reverse French tip" look, and finished with a high gloss top coat. It looks great, and it does appear as though I have gotten an expensive gel polish manicure. Thank you for making this video. :-)
whenever i try to do this, a few hours later the polish smudges off and there's fingerprints everywhere then by the next day it's so gross like,,,, how the hell do you get this to work

Ok but how did you shape them like that? That's what I wanna know
I hate how RUclipsrs before doing whatever they are doing, they start talking and explaining and take ages to get straight to the point. Love the tutorial. Love ya queen😚😘
I wanted to inform you about something , there is a TV channel named Siti news Bangla , which airs in West Bengal, India, that channel used your video where you showed how you thread your whole face. It was showing an episode of skin care and there your video was used although just a 1 min clip from that video. I thought you must know :)
Ive been using this technique for a few months now and i love it. It does take a lot of patience but its worth it. Whenever i do my nails i get a lot of compliments because people will think i went to get my nails done. Thank you so much this video has helped me a lot and ive gotten a lot better at doing my nails😊❤
I really just wanna know, are those her real nails.. if they are, girl I’m so jealous. Wish I had nails like that. I just wanna also say I love you and all your vids. I can just tell you put so much work into what you do and I can just tell your a hard working mother as well as a person and you work hard for everything you have. I love you
I love how she says “thumbs up if you like this or thumbs down if you didn’t” (idk if that was it but...) anyways I like that because she doesn’t force people to like what she does.
it won't peel off that easily, I do mine almost the same and it can last up to a month. I think they peel off easily when you only apply one layer of nail polish

I did this technique, and I love the result! I applied 2 generous coats of clear gloss base coat, and held each hand upside down to center the polish. I applied a chrome rose gold polish on the nail tips to make a "reverse French tip" look, and finished with a high gloss top coat.
It looks great, and it does appear as though I have gotten an expensive gel polish manicure. Thank you for making this video. :-)
I do love a thicc glawssy nail 💦💅💦
Kate Chamomile 😂❤️
whenever i try to do this, a few hours later the polish smudges off and there's fingerprints everywhere then by the next day it's so gross like,,,, how the hell do you get this to work
Ok but how did you shape them like that? That's what I wanna know
Same :D
She has a video on her channel on how to shape nails
They are acrylic nails
Krum Krum its not acrylic its her real nails
@@dianarodriguez9234 she has it on her real nails, not as an extension, you can tell she has something on them
How do you put the nail polish on that thick and not get bubbles? I always get bubbles when i put on a thick coat
Joy Du maybe try a different brand of polish
If you roll the bottle of nail polish in between your hands the bubbles should go, this is what I do
Joy Du hang them upside down for a bit longer and then flip your hands and they should be fine.
Do you shake the bottle of polish before use? I imagine this would create bubbles in the polish.
Ahh no, I can already see the dents and marks on it because of how thick it is
Do thin coats but not to thin for no dents
Lyd Yes, Agreed and it will surely develop bubbling as the polish drys, completely.😖
And it would come off after 2 days anyway 🤷🏼♀️
Debbie It would if you have damaged nails.
I JUST PAINTED MY NAILS
SAMEEEE
I literally just painted mine but fuck that I’m doing it again 😅
Same
Update... I did it again. That tip about laying your nails upside down actually helps!
You’re my fav ! Your videos always add value to my everyday life . Thanks so so much 💕💕
i swear you’re tutorials are the best the visuals, no annoying background music and your voice was made for asmr
😍💅🏼 red nail polish would be great to try on !
Oooooo!! I’m a nail tech, I love getting new ideas. Beautiful! I can’t wait to try this with a deep red!
I hate how RUclipsrs before doing whatever they are doing, they start talking and explaining and take ages to get straight to the point. Love the tutorial. Love ya queen😚😘
Ikr! Those people waste so much time.
notification squad!!
I love your videos so much!! 💕😍
I wanted to inform you about something , there is a TV channel named Siti news Bangla , which airs in West Bengal, India, that channel used your video where you showed how you thread your whole face. It was showing an episode of skin care and there your video was used although just a 1 min clip from that video. I thought you must know :)
Wow, that's wrong for them to do unless maybe they made sure she was credited
Omg yass
Snitch
Ive been using this technique for a few months now and i love it. It does take a lot of patience but its worth it. Whenever i do my nails i get a lot of compliments because people will think i went to get my nails done. Thank you so much this video has helped me a lot and ive gotten a lot better at doing my nails😊❤
Omg my queen watches my mum's videos ❤️💿💿
Fanni Eszter Molnár simplynailogocal doesn’t have kids
@@Elle-wf9vt I thought I'm one of them :(
If you are a holosexual then you are her kid
😂 😂 😂 😂 I love this comment
@@unknownlol99 or Zyler
this is the best channel on RUclips, hands down
this was literally so pleasant and calming to watch wow we love quality content
I really just wanna know, are those her real nails.. if they are, girl I’m so jealous. Wish I had nails like that. I just wanna also say I love you and all your vids. I can just tell you put so much work into what you do and I can just tell your a hard working mother as well as a person and you work hard for everything you have. I love you
Mine are crusty rusty dusty musty need so help lol
@@anayarice6266 I love your comment, you made me laugh!
Ughhh when she paints her nails its soooo satisfying 😻😻
I would love to try a pastel orange! I have never liked orange, but I’m going out of my comfort zone!
YUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSS glossy taco, Christine would be proud
This raw improv style commentary is brilliant, love this
I love how she says “thumbs up if you like this or thumbs down if you didn’t” (idk if that was it but...) anyways I like that because she doesn’t force people to like what she does.
I was honestly waiting for you to say "taco", that was such a relief when you did.
Your nail shape is so perfect and the beds are such a pretty pink. I’m kind of jealous.
may I ask how long do these last? with all those layers I feel like they'd peel off easily...they look beautiful tho 🙏
it won't peel off that easily, I do mine almost the same and it can last up to a month. I think they peel off easily when you only apply one layer of nail polish
maria denisa gotta try it this way then ;)
Just make sure you let the nail polish dry completely before adding each layer.
I do mine similarly - sometimes whole shells "peelies" come off my nails 😂
I tried it and it lasted a week before chipping with our the fancy hand gloss and stuff
this is such a good video! the problem with me is I literally have no patience for the coats to dry lol
Watching ur videos always makes me feel so safe and comfortable i love u
Is there a thin layer of arctic/gel, anything on your nails? That mani looks fabulous!
Wish my nails could grow that long like yours, looks so nice! 😍
Your polish is on fleek. My gawd, in my whole entire life I've never had more beautiful nails done by me.
I’m now gonna do my nails instead of my homework
same
when you said “glossy taco, yes i am to a holosexual” my jaw dropped and i’ve never subscribed to a channel so fast! 💗
Now, this is what you call informative content. All your videos have knowledge bombs. great job
This looks so great you really know your stuff
Y’all.. she made washing hands.. an aesthetic 😭💛 is anything she can’t do perfectly?
Your voice and the video look like a visual asmr video, it's sooo satisfacting
I would love to use a pale or pastel yellow with this technique
White or light pink would look really good with this manicure
Omg yes 💅
The shape of your natural nails is a work of art tho 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Ok so...
1. This is quality content!
2. Girl, ain't nobody got time for that.
4:41 - "add a glossy taco, yes I too am a holosexual"
- I subscribed and liked 💿💿💿
I swear to god I subscribed only cause of 3 reasons:
1. You are just amazing at making videos,your voice is so relaxing!!
2.scrolling threw your channel I realized that you have incredible content (in a good way of course)
3. It’s cause you said “gLoSsy tAcO”
Sometimes in the past when I applied several layers of polish, it can just peel right off? Does this technique cause that?
Your nails are gorgeous
