- Hey everyone!
Welcome back to another video 💕
Here I am doing my sister's nails again - she's my little content model!
Business profit and pricing for our industry is reaaaaally on my mind atm so naturally I got stuck in to the chats with you about it today!
The pricing calculator I mentioned is now live on my website and I am VERY proud of it
Head over to gelincsupplies.com/book-online and scroll down a bit 😇

just staring my nail tech journey (after covid) & living in the US, nail prices definitely have been a big topic of convo over here too.!!
I think its particularly tricky given most of us work independently! But I feel positive for the future 💕 together we can make the change!
wonderful video! I really appreciate how you said ‘next time i would change this and use a reference picture’ to make your next art application better.
Absolutely! I've really adopted the idea lately that I really don't know everything (even though generally I do know *some* stuff) and so it's totally OK to do my best at something but also recognize how I could improve in the future!!
Love the powerbond trick. I never thought to use it before buttercream! I’m totally trying that on my next set
You are going to fall in love with it!!! Powerbond is one of my fav products right now - it's amazing as a marbling gel with buttercreams!
❤
Great video :) Thanks
Glad you liked it! 💕💕💕
Love these watch me work videos u make! So helpful!! Keep them coming!! ❤
Aw thank you so so much!! I love making them too but unfortunately just need to juggle all the things 😂 let me know if there's anything you would like to see from me!!
@@reverienzye it’s a lot of work to edit this type of content so I just patiently wait for another one to come out 😂 I was wondering if you could flat matte before nail art or if it’s better to just buff the surface? I’ve recently committed to light elegance and still trying things out ❤
If you are using ButterCreams or gel paints for art you just need *less* inhibition so you can do the same as I have here pre flat matte, and do a quick wipe of the cured buttercream base
Normally I am working fast enough that I'll even go right in on buttercream because most cure with a very minimal inhibition HOWEVER
If I was painting straight onto JimmyGel or Lexy Line I would either cleanse and buff or flat matte because those both have more inhibition once cured
Does that help?
@@reverienz so helpful!! Thank you lots 🥰 can’t wait for next video to come out!
I'm using builder gel as a base and I've watched a ton of instructional videos on use of an e-file for gel removal. Everyone seems to use different speeds and bits. Your gel removal looks pretty effective so I'm just wondering what speed and bit grit you are using in this video. Thanks.
Hey hun!
I use the Zippy Efile and Speedy Bit for removal and debulking
Efiles are 💯 power tools and you need in person training to understand how to safely use each bit, what they are made to do and how to respect them and use them to enhance your professional service.
Left a question yesterday and couldn't read the reply so I deleted the comment and am trying again today. Can you tell me the speed of your drill and bit type that you are using for gel removal? Thanks.
Thanks for your persistence 💕 I love the energy 😇
Each bit is made for a particular purpose and therefore requires understanding around how to use it safely (speed, direction etc)
I make it look easy because I have completed in person training! And 1000% recommend anyone to do the same
Efiles are power tools - would you learn how to use a drop saw from a video? 😅 I wouldn't 😅
@@reverienz I am being very cautious in my use and only on myself. Just interested in what others are doing. I know I can't expect to use it like a pro. If I had access to a course I'd take it but I doubt it is available unless you take a full nail tech/cosmetology course.
Hillary Dawn Herrara has an online class targeting at home users to get you on the right track and I don't believe there's any prerequisites
Its only $50!
