The Dashing Diva are the only ones that I use and I love the new ones with the extra sticky adhesive on it and the way you show the application of the nails that's amazing they look really gorgeous and I also have very small thumbnails and I just learned from you how to fix that when you use the rest of the nails because I do not like to waste them either

You cut them too short. If you leave them longer and press them over and the ends then file off.
@kbeautyhobbit8 күн бұрын
It works for me. No reason to press them over the edge to file off unless you like it that way. Stickers curved over the edge tend to lift rather quickly.

After many bad experiences with nail wraps, I picked up dashing diva on a whim when I saw the cute scandi floral pattern. I was absolutely delighted when I put them on and they lasted 12 days before I took them off due to slight yellowing of the wraps. They came off with a bit of oil and NO DAMAGE to my nails. I immediately went to the website and bought 4 sets when I saw the leftover strips in the pack were still good and I could use them for a second (and probably 3rd) manicure! 3 Manis for $8 a pack? 🤯 I'm not a bot and not sponsored. I am just really pleased with DD.

Oooo I gotta try the skin tint! It looks beautiful on you. I love sheer coverage skin tint and I can always use extra SPF over my sunscreen 😍 I’ve seen some people use the Etude lip tint as a liquid blush. If you don’t want to throw it away, maybe try it as a blush and see if it’s usable that way?
@kbeautyhobbit13 күн бұрын
I wish the skin tint weren’t so finicky. It only works with primer 😰 I ended up giving the lip tint to my mom. Not sure if she’ll actually use it but it was better than tossing for the time being. I’ve seen the liquid blush idea and it’s neat if it weren’t such a deep red. I’m too pale for such experiments 😅

Well, I tried gel nails (Ohora) for the first time. I’m not someone who has ever done her nails herself, and I’ve only ever had 3 professional manicures, and none recently. But I watched your video, followed everything you said - and I just removed the nails after 4 1/2 weeks because they were so grown out! (Maybe it’s not good to leave them on that long? I was just lazy…) They looked great the entire time; I had one come off about halfway through, but I just put another one on and didn’t have any more problems. Anyway, I’m really loving the gel nails, so thank you for your very helpful video.
@kbeautyhobbit14 күн бұрын
I’m so glad you had a good experience! Usually about 2 weeks is the max recommended time, because there could be moisture trapped under there eventually (from micro lifting you can’t see). That happened to me with a pedicure once. It was looking perfect for a whole month but I decided to finally take it off. The nails under were white and soft. They thankfully recovered quickly once I took off the stickers and they could dry out.

Hi i just want to say a perk of filing before it is cured is that you will not be putting acrylic powder into the air where u can potentially inhale it as that is very bad for you. I file it soft, its a little annoying but not bad at all, better to avoid the resin dust if you can :)
