I apply the CND Rescue Rxx morning and night and also use Kerasal at night. I wish I could find someone like you in my area to do gentle basic manicures. I can’t tell you how often they cut my cuticles until they bleed! Thank you so much for your videos!!

Happy Holidays to both of you!! Thank you for this video. I am suddenly in the mood for some pallette/palate-cleansing whites after all the glitzy manicures during the holiday season. Anna, you have very pretty hands and nails. It looks like you have some sort of product for shine or protection on in this video and I was wondering, being a nail professional, do you ever actually polish your own nails, or do you leave them natural-looking for convenience?

I like "Sheer Luck." Because I have ridges in some of my nails I tend to go toward the clear coat polishes or those with a pearl or shimmer. I have Essie's "Going Steady" which is more milky ivory...I like it a lot.

i really love this video! thank you for showing us all these colors. i do not like it when my natural nails shine through the milky colours because the contrast of the nail laying on the skin and the end part of the nail is so visible so i usually get acrylics for the milky effect. do you think it would have a similar effect if i put on a nude color and a milky white on top? thanks! :)

@TheSalonLife 2 жыл бұрын

Acrylic has such a nice look because it’s faded. Very thin near the cuticle area and thicker throughout the body of the nail. That look is very difficult to recreate with polish

I really like Essie Treat Me Bright, but I think it's been discontinued cause I can't find it anywhere :/ If anyone is interested, Londontown Lakur Illuminating Nail Concealer is similar--sheer white with a slight blue flash. Really brightens up the nails. Only downside it's more expensive than Essie!

Hi Megan! I found it on Amazon :) amzn.to/3CA429F I've heard that some people had good results with these Essie treatments for their damaged nails. I personally didn't find it made any difference because 1) my nails are heathy and strong anyway 2) I haven't used it consistently

The Dior one would also look good as part of a ‘jelly sandwich” manicure! I love the flakes in it. I’ve heard you say before, Anna, that ridge filler base coats don’t help. How come ridge fillers don’t help? I have ridges in my nails and always use 2 layers of a base coat, one of which is a ridge filler. I even have a line from proximal fold to tip, very similar to the one i see on Mr Salon’s nail in the video and you can’t tell with it polished. Mine will even split on the top layers of the nail if I don’t keep polish on it. Polish does seem to keep it from splitting strangely enough, but the line on my nail is permanent damage to the matrix. (Unfortunately, one of many problems my nails have.) Ridge filler base coats really helps the polish look good on my nails, or at least it seems to. It might not help with sheers, but I never wear sheer polishes. I’ve been told ridges can happen with age, so Mr. Salon’s ridges aren’t your fault, Anna. 😂(No idea if they do come with age or not. I only know I’ve been told that.)

@Sarisfaction84 2 жыл бұрын

I also have ridges in my nails, both lengthwise and across. Had it since childhood, it is just the way my nails are. I often wear sheer polishes, like the Depend number 129. I use a ridgefiller base, and this makes my nails look so good I actually get compliments when I paint them. It is like magic, makes the ridges diappear and the following polish always look great. I swear, since discovering ridgefiller basecoat, it totally changed the game for me :)

It looks like his middle finger on the second hand (his left - that you applied sheer luck to) had a base coat on it already? It was far smoother & shinier than the rest, pre-polish.

It leaves very healthy surface. No white spots or yellowing. And the amazing 5 min dry time....! Next would be Vinylux for the brush and the colors and no need for the base coat. Except for sheer pinks. Essie Gel Couture for sheer pinks. :)
