Great tip about using clear for the 3/4 layer. I ran into that issue with a more translucent dip powder. There are perks to those powders but this tip will help me bunches 😁
This is so good!! I am about to embark on my first dip mani and thought I would look on TH-cam for some hints and tips. I have short nails AND some of them are flat!! Great video and I can't wait to see how this method goes with my nails. Also, after looking at your other prep videos, I think you have made me realise why my nails always lifted when done in a salon. I thought it was the way my nail grew that made it lift. I am now wondering if it was because there wasn't enough time to dry the nail after soaking in the water (for cuticle removal), plus building up the apex. You said that washing the hands is a no-no in the manicure, which they make you do. I also saw (was it in one of your videos???) that after washing you need to wait 60 mins before the mani to have the nail bed fully dry. Can't wait to have beautiful strong nails and to experiment with colours and techniques!!
Welcome to our little nail community!! The beauty in DIY is we can experiment and see what works best for us 💪🏼 I always start with the least amount of product and most gentle approach first. Then introduce other things as needed. Especially with prep! For some people with really oily nail beds they have to rough their nails in order for it to adhere. Totally different for everyone 🥰 I choose to take the “dry” approach because our nail beds can hold moisture after hand washing. Not to mention soaps that have oils in them. I know it can be a little overwhelming at first but I promise you’ll find your groove with it! 💖 I’m here if you need me!
Ummm . . . 🤯 I haven't been doing dips very long, but I'm definitely going to try this pour over method! Right after I go out and get some stiff brushes! I've been using the softer make-up-like brushes that came with my dip kit and I feel that that is the reason my liquid brushes keep getting powder in them! I really think the stiffer brushes are going to be a game changer!! 🙌🏼
This is by far a more comprehensible and complete tutorial than the rest out there. How long do you let your base+powder layers dry each time before brushing off? I'm finding that I'm creating lumps/bumps when I brush powder off the nails. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the kind feedback 🫶🏻 So dusting off will vary for each brand because they each have different dry times. Generally I watch to see how it looks. So if it has a shiny look then I will dip back in and wait for the liquid to absorb into the powder. Here’s a vid I did recently to better explain what I’m saying 💕th-cam.com/video/yKBeC4Xw0lU/w-d-xo.html
That came out very nice. I am so glad I ce across your channel. I recently switched from builder gel, to using dip powder. I can't wait to check out more of ur videos
Hi Chelsea. Just getting started doing my own dip nails and I really appreciate this video. Thank you. I’ll be watching more of your channel before I dive in.
Great video as always ❤️👍 just a random question as you’re using dark dips. Do you ever find that either your base coat brush or activator brush gets staining from the darker colours? I’m assuming the dip isn’t dried enough before going in again? But I tap and it seems hard and not soft at all. They always clean up but it’s a little annoying…🤷♀️
Hi Lisa! Absolutely! My brushes do get discoloration so I wipe them really well (front and back) on a napkin before returning them to the bottles. I haven’t found that it hardens the brushes or anything luckily 🙌🏼 mostly just ugly to look at 🤣
@@shairmainejoycecole9299 not yet but it’s on my to do list! I don’t really have any vitamins or anything extra that I do. I just try to keep dip powder on them for strength, apply cuticle oil daily, and use peel base/or soak off 💗💗
This looks so easy and makes a lot of sense! If you use very light colors will the extra powder on the apex show through? Thanks for all the great tips! 💕💕
Unfortunately with light colors, you can sometimes see the layers. In that case, I would suggest building the apex with clear and then doing the last layers with color. Hope that makes sense! 💖
Sorry you are under the weather. You sound so congested. I hope you feel better soon. Beautiful nails. I love the color. Your nails are always beautiful. Thank you for sharing this. You take care of yourself.
Thank you so much Kathy for the well wishes! The congestion has been unreal! I am trying everything under the sun to beat it 😆 I welcome any advice, medicine or remedies lol!
I’m about ready tonight dip today and will using this method. I’ve always disliked the typical apex method (the 5 step diagrams are all over Fb) as I thought it was overkill for my medium length nails. This makes more sense to me! I also ordered the Beetles Nail kit from Amazon but in the green hues. It includes two dark blues and I’ve been dying to find a good true navy color. Thanks again for your guidance!
I can’t wait to hear what you think on the kit!! I have been eyeing their pink rose vibes one 😬🙈 I’m on the hunt for my next amazon kit but I keep finding my way back to the Beetles listings 🤣🤣
Hi Chelsea! Hope you’re now recovered from your cold! I got the green/blue Beetles kit as I told you, and inky have used the dark blue so far. I love the powder! It is a TRUE NAVY! I’m so excited to find a true dark navy! Anyway I’ve not used the dips because I had a cheap amazon sold Tomicca Base/Top liquid which is sold with the activator liquid in a pair (like under $10.00!) . It’s actually really decent and has a super good shine! (If you’ve tested the Tomicca (the 2 bottle kit, no need for the 4 bottle kit), I encourage you to do so. I’m used to higher priced dips like Sparkle&Co. and OG (both great!). So, I can’t report what I think about the Beetles liquid but I must say for the price (my color theme was $19.00) it’ll be worth every Penny if only for getting the six dips and the nice cuticle pusher! You’re right in that the brush is pretty ineffective. I did try the apex and it worked just great! I love your videos and look forward to a day off to really binge watch and take a few notes. Thanks for your reply and take care of yourself!
So I have been dipping for about 3+ years and I’ve only had my nails get slightly stained twice. One with an orange and one with a black. But still very rare! And it was on the underside of my nail from dipping into the jar. I only have peel base on my nails but haven’t experienced any extreme staining. Dark colors can sometimes stain around your cuticle area but unfortunately clear wouldn’t really prevent that. I think it’s just based on personal preference but I haven’t found that it’s necessary 🥰
@SipAndDip I'm a beginner so I'm still practicing (on the second time, the chipped, so I need to remove it again 😔). I find that after using acetone to remove the dipping powder (I also add the coconut oil), my nails are shattered. Would you recommend a peel base instead of the prep? And if so, which one? ( preferably cruelty free company 🐈🐕) Thank you very much for your detailed videos! I'm learning a lot!
Hi Chelsea! I was wondering two things. Can I use a ridge filler under dip powder? Can you show us how to do a metallic ombré? I saw a picture but I like to see a video on it. You have to use a chrome. Thanks ❤
Heyyy! 🫶🏻 so I haven’t personally tried a ridge filler but it’s on my list to try. If you do try could you let me know how it wears? Ohhh a metallic ombré!! I love! Like a French chrome?! 😍 I’ll add to my list to film! Can you send me the pic to my IG or email so I can make sure I know what your vision is? 💖
@@SipAndDip Hi! I didn’t get a picture because it was on google real fast. But yeah like a metallic French. But ombre lol I also used fairy glamour’s rage quit and I had a bit of trouble because of the chunky ✨ glitter. But thank you anyway I’ll keep practicing ❤️
Hi Jenna!! Great question! 💖 So when I am using glitters/shimmers I always use clear to protect them. When filing and buffing it can be really easy to buff off the color on glitter which will turn the glitter silver. I used to do 3 dips of solid colors and no clear. But then I would randomly buff off the color with a dark shade, pastel, neon and so on. And it was sooo frustrating when I was already almost done with the manicure and “ruined” it while buffing. So that’s when I started to just use the better than safe than sorry mentality 😆 Using clear is totally personal preference! I have seen others get away with never using it and being careful while buffing/filing. You can always practice on a swatch first too to see if the color is temperamental! Hope this helps and makes sense 🥰
I'm very new to dipping. Nb suggests a first coat of clear build powder first. I notice you don't. Is that just completely unnecessary? I'd love to only do coats of color
Totally up to you! 🫶🏻 it will vary depending on how long your nails are and how much strength you need. I personally like to do at least 2 full layers of color and 1 layer of clear on top to protect the color when I file/buff ☺️
Yes! I use peel base on my natural nails. This helps me pop off the dip powder rather than soaking in acetone. Here’s a quick tutorial on my peel base routine 🩷 th-cam.com/video/h4bRabYxTho/w-d-xo.htmlsi=J9Rj999tP92W1pYI
@@SipAndDip Thank you for taking the time to answer. I did see the video after and it’s great. Answered my question! Thanks again for your violes. Sooooo professional!
How do you remove your dip powder? I've recently switched to dip powder but unfortunately after two sets my natural nails are wrecked and im not sure what im doing wrong. I have been lightly buffing before application but I think I am going to stop. I've been soaking in acetone to remove and I think that is really hard on my already very thin nails. They are flaking off in layers after removing the dip

It looks like shameless may have gone out of business. I am looking for full coverage powders just like these but have had no luck. Can you make a recommendation?
Hi there! I don’t have any builder gel on them but I do have peel base on them. I apply 1 layer of peel base before each dip application. It helps me pop off the dip powder within a few days. That way I don’t have to soak in acetone. Only downfall is they pop off within a few days so I don’t suggest peel base if you’re wanting longevity. Hope this helps! 💖
I'm new to dip, but my main problem is too much bulk at the tip of my nail. I can't seem to buff it down the match the rest of the nail. Anyone have some tips?
@@SipAndDip I do three layers. I apply the base with the 3/4th method and then full application for dips 2 and 3. I just always noticed way more buildup at the tip of my nail
