Tip; Use a regular nail polish peel off base coat under you gels if you wanna change manis more often or don't wanna soak - but still want the strength of gel polish

@justaname7045 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for these tips and for sharing them. My nails are too short (bitten) so I cannot do a gel overlay. But the do's and dont's still help with soft gel tips because you basically prep your natural nail the same way, apply the soft gel tips and then buff the tip before applying the gel nail polish. Thanks again. Much Respect 🌹♥️‼️

Hi Gabby, great videos, thanks. So my question is, are we to cure the gel under the light after EACH coat? I thought it was only after the top activating coat?

@kimpike1304 3 жыл бұрын

What is an OK frequency to change out nail colors? I’m brand-brand new to DIY gel nails and I have thin nails anyway, I just don’t want to end up wrecking my nails by doing things too often or inadvertently thinning them out more

@LebenmChemie 3 жыл бұрын

Mine tends to pop off. Don’t know what I do wrong but they come of in day or few hours as whole nail 🤦🏻‍♀️ layers are thin, haven’t anything on my skin. Before painting use nail polish remover to clean any oils and of-course do my cuticles. Only thing what can I imagine is that I use standard nail polish remover to clean sticky layer off and curing each layer for 60 sec except small nail art .

@just.jayshree 3 жыл бұрын

@Danielle MacDuff Use less polish and start lower on the nail plate then use the brush to gently push the polish toward the cuticle (like at 5:11 🖤) Good luck! ☺️

@GabbyAngelique 3 жыл бұрын

Placing the polish further away from the cuticle and then pushing it down helps! You can also try different brands that have a formula that isn’t as thin/runny

Ugh. I’m using latex tape and brushes with acetone but I’m still leaving the worst mess around my cuticles 😭

Actually, Doug Schoon looked at nails being filed under the microscope and said it made no difference whether you file in one direction or go back and forth. For those who don't know, Doug is THE nail scientist.
