This video is a perfect example of why I have been watching your videos. Your sweet compassion. This was a young womans bday nails, and you wanted them to be special, so you used the better bling. Just because. I appreciate that so very much. It says so much about your work ethic, not to mention your heart.
I use the sponge ombre method with clear acrylic powder. It cut my ombré time by about 90%. I show it in my Pisces nail video on my channel. This set is beautiful like always! You do such a great job recreating acrylic sets. Plus my favorite color is purple. 💜💜💜 Thank you for sharing. 🥰
Just came across your page and I have to say I’m so glad I was led to you. New sub here and you’ve already taught me more than I needed to know as far as press on nails. Thank you so much for being so considerate and sharing your tips and tricks ❤️🫶🏼. Much love xoxoxoxo
Absolutely gorgeous! I do my own nails and I've never done nails for someone else so I can't say how efficient this may be for everyone but I use clear acrylic gel to keep my gems in place. I don't have a problem with them sliding during the application or popping off my nails during the day and it only takes about 60 seconds to cure them into place. I'm definitely not a professional but I hope that helps 💜
I watch you now daily. You are my inspiration to keep going through restocking all my product since I stopped doing nails over 10 years ago. My favorite is ombré and you are awesome! Practice makes perfect. How would you go about restocking gel Polish? I’m keeping my palettes for nail art it’s faster as well to apply through a bottle. Should I buy open stock or 6s 9 sets or more. Thanks for the tip on @enailscouture I love him ! Please help me figure out a plan on how to get colors. These days there are ombres there are glitters, cat eyes. When I did nails gel was new in a bottle lol no joke. I learned nothing except passing the state board tests. Here in MA we do the same red manicure and set up station sanitation. I had one girl in my class she never showed! My teacher just fraternized and got her beauty treatments. I was pissed. It’s closed now lol. Thanks Val
Love the purple! Have you tried the freeze dry for cooking? When cooks attach fancy things, or need to glue walls together making Gingerbread houses. I don't know what oder if any or cost. Just a thought. Always appreciate you!💯 You will go far. Also, thank you for the background music. It's soothing, & pleasing.💜💜💜
When you finish with your sponge after an ombré set, how do you clean your sponge? I never know if I can use acetone or if I should just get a new sponge. Also I loveeee your channel, I’m in the process of starting my own press on business and you inspire me so much :). Thank you for all the tips you offer and being so transparent with us 🫶🏼 you’re a gem and deserve so much more recognition!
I always dispose of them ! Ive tried cleaning it with acetone but the acetone eats through the sponge when I tried it and alcohol makes it sticky so disposing is what ive found is best ! The pack I use has 100pcs so I always have enough!
My fav colour!! Stunning. Do you not like the ombré technique where you sprinkle the first layer with clear acrylic? I find it really cuts my time and product usage. Just curious.
I love them its so pretty ahhh and btw you said it's harder to do ombré on darker background so doing lighter purple first and turning the stand and doing the darker next wouldn't work?
So gorgeous! I've asked this before but I don't think you saw my comment so I'm asking again, do you do anything special besides posting to get sales? I just started my business in April and I'm really struggling. Any advice?
Hi! No I dont do anything. The only thing I do is cross post , so ill post on my 2 instagrams , my videos on TH-cam help a lot and then Im just really consistent on ig I try to post every day on instagram and always show my work. I also use a lot of hashtags and always post pictures my customers send me. I think that naturally makes people want to order because they see other people wearing my nails . Also highlights are super important I always save stuff and have categories on my highlights and then lastly make sure you have all you policies up/ how to order
@@Nailsslayedbyval thanks for answering. I'm doing the same thing, maybe it's because I just started. I'm gonna keep at it, at least I'm enjoying myself in the meantime. I love your work and I wish you continued success. ❤️🥰
How do you avoid the little bubbles the sponge leaves on the nail I've tried using sponges like tje one u used and I always get little marks thts on the sponge
Hi! Im not sure bc I dont get bubbles 😭 maybe it depends on the gel polish brand ? Or the temperature of your room ? Im sorry I wish I had a better answer 🥺❤️
Love!!!!!! I have to say tho Everytime I see you mix colors together ans out it back into the bottle without cleaning the 2 colors makes me scream inside hahaha
Hey girl, it's me again. I have a question about the Zulays glue. I did what you said and I used the McCarts to hold it in place and cure it and then I used the zulays to go around the bottom of the gems and charms. So they wouldn't get lost. But I really think I hate zules now. I didn't use the spray. I let it dry naturally. And it dried white and gross and crusty everywhere it took the shine completely out of all of my gems and jewels. And I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed with alcohol and acetone and I still only got back a little bit of the shine. My whole set was lost and I had to do it all over again. What do you have to say about that, or what is your advice. I just threw the whole bottle away, because I can't work with it it leaves big lumpiness and it turned everything crusty white. And I did smooth it out after applying it by the way but it just made this white blown out shadow. Please let me know what you think.
Zulays glue works amazing, BUT It dries so fast and if u use to much it will turn out white and crusty. I stopped using it’ because it’s so strong that my bottled kept getting sealed shut and I couldn’t open it 😩😩😩😩. Val might have some better ideas for you but I definitely feel your pain with that glue!!!
Hi! Yes that’s happened to me sooo many times but what works for me is if that happens I use 100% acetone with a lint free wipe wipe really hard , then itll look like it all went away ill go in with alcohol and a lint free wipe and wipe really hard , then I wipe them really hard with a cloth ( im not going to lie I usually use my shirt ) but like a dry lint free wipe use it to completely dry the alcohol and wipe hard and itll be good as new. Im sorry that happened but another thing , when you dont use the spray it dries white like that. I notice when I do use spray , it never dries white unless I spray super close to the nails. But next time one of my sets turns white ill film how to get rid of it ! 🤍
Another thing ! I always try my best to not get any of the glue on top of my crystals ! If you use too much itll be super lumpy / crystalized when it dries. I try my best to only get it around the edges
Can you please do a video of ordering bling from blue streak? Idk but every time I go on it, it seems difficult and I get frustrated. Maybe Because idk the difference between the stones
My rhinestones keep falling off my sets 😭 i know i need better quality glue but i also did top coat around the rhinestones to hopefully hold them down better and they just dont stay on as long as i would prefer, what can i do?!?!?
Girl zulay glue is the only one that has ever lasted for me ! But also try makartt glue that one is good too just make sure you cure it in your lamp super long so the glue dries all the way
Have you seen all the news of people getting contact dermatitis from continuing to touch gel 😭 never working on nails with out wearing gloves since I have sensitive skin, stay safe out there yall
Yeah your making so many nails now your gonna overexpose yourself so stay safe glove up it’s worth it,take it from me I developed allergies and now I can only use hyper allergenic gels and thank Goodness they have them or else I was done ✅

Beautiful set as usual. Do you happen to know what glitter you used on this set?
Very pretty !!
I still think you should hold up the inspo against the finish product at the end, for a final comparison..
😊
Thats a good idea !!!😍😍

Nobodies asking me lol but I cut the end off of my sponge and reuse it

Yes that works but sometimes sponging on a dark color turns out really patchy. It happened to me on the middle finger
Loveeeee
I'm purchasing some beetles gel polish and it won't let me use your coupon code? Any help?

It could be the sponge possibly! When the fabric of the sponge is more fine it leaves less bubbles for me

Yes I’m one of them and I wear double and triple gloves I don’t touch gel at all and it still happens 😪😩
@@ariellepritchett1 heck, you should see if ur allergic to acrylic bc they use it in dental and hip replacements

Are you in a warmer climate? Asking because of the glue. That could be the reason your glue is so runny honey 🫶🏽
Yes 😫
