Hi Tiana! 😊 I'm a really anxious person and sometimes I watch your videos to help calm me down because your voice is just so soothing! 😊 Thank you so much for showing us some uses for the Sticky Base Coat. I have some of this base coat (it's awesome!) and now, thanks to you, I have even more ways to use it. Thank you. I appreciate you very much.
That is such a sweet compliment DiAnn! Perhaps I'm practicing on my 1.5 year old son who is really teaching me a lot about being patient as well as trying my patience ;) I normally sniff some of my fav essential oils before going on live, but you know - nerves sometimes gets the better of me. I hope you are doing well and keep up the wonderful work, nails or otherwise!
Just getting back to stamping again and your videos are refreshing my memory! Yesterday I placed my first order for the subscription box and more polishes. Thanks for the videos and I’m looking forward for more!!
Thank you for sharing! We're so excited to hear that you're getting back into stamping. Stay tuned for more videos, and feel free to share your creations with us. Happy stamping! 💖💅🏻
I just got my sticky base coat girl i am a reverse stamping guru overnight🤣🤣 i hope maniology keep this product in stock, i'll definately be getting back up one.
Just purchased for the first time so researching. Initially I had no idea so many things could be done with this base. I think I learned about it in a FB group whose focus is nail decals. Thank You for sharing! 😊
@@rachelverdi437 In another video, they say you have to use the sticky black polish for that instead - the base is too thin to stamp with it, but that's what their sticky black polish is made for.
I always make sure I'm wearing my pajama pants before painting my nails so there's less chance of messing them up during a bathroom trip. The struggles are real!🥰🤣💀
Yes, a little goes a LONG way. Used about 4-6strokes😝🤷🏽♀️my fault, unable to fully dry . BUT when properly done 1-3(no re dipping)👍🏽🤩🤩🤩. Wish I watched sooner, but was totally fun learning the technique.
That. Was Awesome. Im brand new to stamping and stumbled onto Maniology when my first attempt at stamping with a kot from Amazon and regular and gel polishes was an epic fail. I was determined to figure it out, though. I found the Starter kit offer for Maniology, and then fell in love with the wildly unique and esoteric plates at Maniology in the Tattoo Collab bundle and House of Horrors and Supernatural sets.... mirsl of the story is Im now a Manioligy addict. Ive got tons of chrome powdrs, and have the Sticky base coat included in the Not You Basics Bundle, so thrilled I can stsmp with the chromes! Question.. Is there any way to use the chrome powders in a stamp itself, ie: reverse stamp with them? Obviously cant apply with the stamper or applicator or it would cover the whole design and base polish.... but is it possible to mix chrome powders in w stamping polish before you brush it on the plate, or apply it with detail brush after the stamp is on the stamper like reverse painting?? Ill check out my new Maniology goidies on Wed, and experiment when they show up, but wondered if there were tips for either technique. Oh, and as for your regular polish issues.... I know its not supposed to work, but I absolutely cure regular polishes in a LED lamp.... it works just fine, though may take a bit longer than gel, 2 mins or so. Then your regular polish is rock hard, and you can run to the restroom withiut killing your mani .Si excited abt my new maniology schtuff! Thanks for the tips!!!
Oh wow that's awesome thank you I am going to have to try my lamp next time I have alot of thick regular polish (ALWAYS)🤣.. but I was always curious about that... As far as powders have you happened to figure out the best technique to stamp with them.. I have really been wanting to try and just haven't.. I would love to know how you apply powder for both full coverage and stamping if you don't mind sharing.. please and thank you and have a great day 💙
This technique is often referred to as "reverse stamping" where you fill in the stamp with other colors before transferring it to your nails. Here's a link to our Facebook Lives where we talk about reverse stamping techniques: facebook.com/watch/hellomaniology/701300610578318. Hope this helps!
do you have video on how to clean the stamper thoroughly? I'm difficult to clean my sticky stamper . i hope you notice me , thank you 😊 i love your products 😘 i have brought already .
We recommend cleaning the stamper before use with some dish soap and water and air dry on a paper towel. You can clean between uses with just some tape, a lint roller, or our Sticky Stamper Station: maniology.com/products/sticky-stamper-station-nail-art-planner-and-stamp-cleaner . Cleaning with acetone will wear out the clear material much faster! It's also unnecessary to clean the stamper with acetone. Thank you!
Hi Izanami, it's recommended to apply it directly to your nails to make them a bit tacky, ensuring the foil or powder adheres properly. However, feel free to experiment and see what works best for you. 💖
Good question because the timing is important. Once the image on the stamper has been colored, we'd recommend waiting until the polish is dried completely. When you're ready to transfer the image onto the nail, paint a thin layer of the sticky base coat and wait about 45 seconds so the surface of the nail is tacky, but not wet. Apply the stamper to the nail to transfer the image.

This special sticky base coat is formulated to grip on to stamps, powders, glitters, and loose foils for long-lasting wear. Perfect for reverse stamping, our Sticky Base Coat remains tacky for longer periods of time (compared to regular base coats) and transforms into a clean, non-adhering base when dry. For longevity, nail prep is the key. Push back your cuticle and clean your nail beds before applying a base coat, followed by thin layers of polish. A top coat while capping the free edge is crucial for longevity. Hope this helps!
Hi Stella, you can stamp on top of your completed gel manicure. After you are done stamping, just topcoat with your usual gel top coat and cure a final time. Here's a video showing you how it's done: th-cam.com/video/mnisleLQ0cU/w-d-xo.html
No need to use a sticky base coat if you will stamp it as soon as you picked up the design from the plate. ❤ The design will stick and stay on a dry nail without a sticky base coat.

LJ that's a good question. Yes, you could use the sticky base as your regular base coat but you'd have to wait until it is completely dry so the surface is not tacky any more.
I have tried it on loose foils (like the type that is really light and crushed in a pot). I haven't personally tried it on any rolled foils because we don't carry this type of product anymore. This product is definitely sticky enough. I would say it's worth a shot.
I bought this about a month ago and it’s not sticky . I just used it for the first time today . I put a thin amount on my nail and it was completely dry and smooth to touch . No stickiness at all . It was like a top coat . I wrote you all .I must be doing something wrong .
Hi there! The sticky base coat will dry down completely like a normal base coat does. There is a small window of stickiness to apply your decals, powder, or stamp. This information can be found on our product page! Thanks!
Aw, I dont thjnk so. Personally, I love in depth tutorials that really answer questions, plus I think this was a live feed. But it is terrific if you put timestamps in the beginning after its posted, so someone interested in just one of the tips can get straight to it.
Really?!? I think these video's are perfect, I'd rather have longer video's then very short ones. everyone will have there own opinion. just letting Maniolgy know there perfect with the video's on teaching about nails. I'm loving all the video's. :)

The eyeshadow sponge has a smile lol
💕💕💕 pillow lines lol
Oh, thanks! I used this and it was a disaster because I had no idea what I was doing! Yay- now I wanna try it again!
I love this. Is there a way to use the powders only in the stamping design instead of the whole nail?
Yaas, exactly my question, too

OMG! My newest obsession!
I’m new to stamping & these tips are fantastic! I look forward to trying them out myself.❤️❤️❤️💅
Welcome, welcome Rae! We have more videos about stamping and other tricks. We hope they continue to help you on your creative journey!
Hi Tiana, should I use nail polish remover or acetone when removing the stamping from the nail?
Thanks for the lesson. 😊
Hi Margarita, you can use both. 😊

Good Afternoon. Sending lots of love and sunshine from Las Vegas!Can't wait to see what your doing and hang out for a bit
I just bought this and it made my stamp come out perfectly!
can you use this sticky product directly on the plate in order to stamp it on the nail and apply foil or powder on top after?
Hi Izanami, it's recommended to apply it directly to your nails to make them a bit tacky, ensuring the foil or powder adheres properly. However, feel free to experiment and see what works best for you. 💖
how long can you wait till you do your reverse designs to put on the nail?
Good question because the timing is important. Once the image on the stamper has been colored, we'd recommend waiting until the polish is dried completely. When you're ready to transfer the image onto the nail, paint a thin layer of the sticky base coat and wait about 45 seconds so the surface of the nail is tacky, but not wet.

Hello you are giving great tips on this video
Do you have to wait for the sticky base coat to dry completely before using the top coat when stamping?
Could you use this over gel nails before stamping?

I try it and it worked wonderfully ty so much!!!
Why did the company stop selling gel polish?
Question, do you need to use the sticky base coat to just do a basic stamp on your nails or will the stamping polish stay on your dry nail?
No need to use a sticky base coat if you will stamp it as soon as you picked up the design from the plate. ❤ The design will stick and stay on a dry nail without a sticky base coat.
Where can i buy the practice nails? Think it will help me. Thanks
Sometimes we just get some press on tips from the store. But as a company we purchase tips all the time. You can find a bunch on Amazon.
Can gel nail polish be used for stamping?
Yes! You can stamp on top of your completed gel manicure. After you are done stamping, just topcoat with your usual gel top coat and cure a final time. Here's a video showing you how it's done: th-cam.com/video/mnisleLQ0cU/w-d-xo.html
Can I use sticky polish as a base coat for regular polish? Thank you.
LJ that's a good question. Yes, you could use the sticky base as your regular base coat but you'd have to wait until it is completely dry so the surface is not tacky any more.
@@Maniology Thank you! I was hoping my polish could be peeled off with the if I use the sticky as a base coat.....
What first plate did you use? Gorgeous! Love your demos ❤
Oh boy, I remember doing my first stamped design with a Konad plate...eons ago ;P
I thought you could stamp with this polish for a foil design but it didn't work. ☹️
Hi Lara, here are various tips on using foil: th-cam.com/users/livey-yL_vpatoQ. Hope this helps!

If you keep a bowl of ice water while your doing your manicure, you dip your painted nails count to ten (slow/normal) and it will be set.

Hello, I'm new to this. When are you dates when you're on live?
Hi Darlene, Maniology Live is every 23rd of the month. If the 23rd falls on a weekend day, the live will be on that following Monday.
1/4 of the way in before it finally gets to the point. Otherwise very helpful.
Glad to hear it was helpful :)
Never drink your calories.🤣🤣🤣
Hi
Hello Nancy! ☺
Unfortunately when you put the flakies on the stamper like that you sure do waste a lot! 🙁
These videos are waaaaaay too long. The best how to videos are just a couple of minutes long!
