Hi Ariana! What method do you use to remove your gel x nails? Thank you in advance! 🤍✨

@ariiana.nicole 4 ай бұрын

Hi! I use a soak off bowl. I have a video on it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJN8rNl30NacfH0.html

my nail beds are wider than most kits and you are the first i’ve seen file them to shape while still on the nail to customize and it makes so much more sense to do if that way! these came out so cute and i’m glad you showed us application without an e file i rlly wanna do gel x nails but don’t have all the equipment yet

@ariiana.nicole 5 ай бұрын

Yes! It is so much easier for me that way. My middle and thumb are wide and I like to be able to see exactly how much room to go in. I say start off slow with the equipment! I love gel x but I actually started off with poly gel and didn't like it. So now I have a bunch of poly gel that went to waste. 😂

@naynovaa8585 5 ай бұрын

@@ariiana.nicole i wanted poly gel at first and after a few videos i’m glad i didn’t stock up. i try to watch as many videos before i start bc i know how i am with my hobbies so i want to be super intentional. now off to binge more your presentation / transitions are by far the best

@anitadills6298 4 ай бұрын

I have had to do this for years. Just make sure you do a little from each side or it can look lopsided.

@samoea19 3 ай бұрын

@ariiana.nicole omg I did the same thing with poly gel😅 maybe use the "femi beauty method " to use up the poly gel while using the soft gel extensions

@KDbelieves 4 ай бұрын

Instead of using the wax stick to move the rhinestones around, I highly suggest you get "needle tweezers". They are LIFE CHANGING. Use the wax stick to pick up the rhinestones, then use the needle tweezer to move them around. It's a lot less messy, and you have more control.

Hi hun, I top coat my colorful rhinestones too but really all of my cheap ones. It actually makes them look better and helps stay on. The rhinestone glue don’t do it every time. But the topcoat can mess up the quality of my Swarovski ones. It helps the cheap ones tho and turns out really pretty! .

LOVED the video! I love how you get so close up and everything is so clear. Also your natural nails look so good. So you put a coat of glue on, cure, then fully coat the inside of the nail, apply, then cure again? How long do your nails usually last you before they start popping off?

Yes you got it! I had this set on for 3 weeks before I took them off. 💕

@CariYRichardson 5 ай бұрын

This look is super cute!!! I love the milky shade of the polish! 😍😍😍 You mentioned sealing the nail with acetone. What do you mean by that? Does it melt the nail slightly at the base to produce a more secure hold for the nails to make them last longer?

@ariiana.nicole 4 ай бұрын

Yes exactly! It also ensures that the nail tip is flush with your natural nail so no water (from showering, washing hands etc) gets trapped underneath the extension and starts to mold.

@CariYRichardson 4 ай бұрын

@ariiana.nicole Wowwwww!!!!! This is great! I didn't even think about the water getting in during showers and hand washing and stuff! I wash my hands frequently with what I do, and my nails begin lifting and popping off before the week is out! Thank you so much for this information! God bless you beautiful! 🙏🏽🥰
