I hope you found this helpful! My overly dry hands are even more dry than usual here, I know. I helped my husband build a deck all last week, and they're wrecked. As always, everything I used in today's video is linked in the description, and you can check out more of my nail faves at: www.amazon.com/shop/novaknowsbeauty PS: Sorry about the quality on the close ups, I'll work on it 😁 Oh annnd I *had* footage swatching the polygels in this kit, and I accidentally deleted it along with some clips that needed re-done. I'll try & find it and add to my next video. 2020 is still trying it.
I’d LOVE to see a video of poly gel with tips. I’m not really good at the forms yet. And definitely YESSSS on the video about pinching w polygel! TYSM for all your videos they are so helpful ❤ your nails always look amazing 😊
I’m no longer on any social media. I deleted my pages. I only have my blog now. It was becoming too much for me mentally and I just needed to get off definitely miss the supportive friends like you !! Maybe next year I’ll make a new page and start my makeup again and reviews but for now I’m off.
@@mari718 I hear you 100000% That's exactly why I stepped back from IG and have been doing these vids... it's something I truly enjoy without the pressure. I'll get back to it, but I have been considering just doing nails. 🤷🏼♀️
I love your videos and you look like your having fun doing it !! Definitely a better community I see then Ig is or was. I miss posting my pictures but I see myself doing my blog more often and maybe my own YT page in the future. For now you can reach me via email @mlopez0758@yahoo.com or on here 😉
I'm so grateful I found your channel. I was so overwhelmed! I've ordered 2 different kits. 1 dip and gel. I'm them sending back and ordering a polygel kit. I'll use your link. I l9ve long nails on others. But starting out. So I just want healthy, even all one length short nails. For now ... Please do a short nail tutorial on polygel for short nails. That would be awesome! You are a natural teacher btw~ 🖤🖤🖤
Girl I hear ya! These usually have to come right off, otherwise I'll end up having a painful accident. 😣😂 I'm totally down to do that and would love to hear any design ideas (or whatnot) that you'd like to see! 💜
I would love a video on how to pinch polygel! I know it's possible but I never seem to get it right 😅 I try to flash cure but then the gel still is too uncured, and if I cure more it's like it's too late to pinch 😬😂
Yeah it can be tricky... depends on the poly brand, its consistency & if it's more gel heavy or more acrylic powder heavy, lamp wattage, etc. Honestly, that's the only reason I haven't made a video on it yet, because there's not really a 1 size fits all method for what everyone uses. BUT I think I've rounded up a few things/tips that would be useful, so I'm definitely gonna make it soon 💜
I can't agree more about the importance of a good lamp. There have been so many times that my nails seemed completely cured, but they weren't underneath against the natural nail.
When I first started, I'd work on them almost all day long and then again the next day (and sometimes even a third day). After awhile, you'll get to where you can get them done in one fairly quick sitting. 😁
I like to sculpt because it gives you total control over the thickness, shape, curve, etc. I've also found that dual form nails don't seem to last as long as sculpting. I think people tend to use dual forms because it seems easier, but they have some downfalls... I definitely think sculpting is the way to go! 😁

The nail forms are reusable and yes to the pinching tutorial! Been wanting to try it
The sticky forms like I used in this video are reusable?
I could kind of see that, but I'd think it would also be such a pain to unstick them 😂

Lol me to! I ordered a kit of theirs before and didn't notice that they were reusable until yesterday when I ordered this kit!🤣

Your videos are so helpful. Can you do a video on how you use your e-file, on your natural nails and and poly gel, please.
Please show us some short nails! I do soooo much housework and gardening that long nails dont work so well for me. Tyia!

I would appreciate a step-by-step video on short nails using the lazy girl method.
Please do a pinching Polygel video 🥰
short nail videos pleeeeaaaassseee!!!
I can't agree more about the importance of a good lamp.

Yes!!! That's exactly what can happen, and keep the gel from bonding
Thank you so much for this! 💖😇
Would you do one on what e-file bits are for each buffing method? The titanium bits please?
I'm working on one, so if you have any particular questions, let me know!
Short nail video please!!! Every single thing about them! Every different way to do them!
How long does it take you to do your nails with poly gel. I feel like it takes me all day, even with dual forms
When I first started, I'd work on them almost all day long and then again the next day (and sometimes even a third day). After awhile, you'll get to where you can get them done in one fairly quick sitting. 😁
Adorable 💕
So, do you not like dual forms? All the other videos are showing dual forms, are butterfly forms better and/or easier?
I like to sculpt because it gives you total control over the thickness, shape, curve, etc.
I've also found that dual form nails don't seem to last as long as sculpting.
I think people tend to use dual forms because it seems easier, but they have some downfalls... I definitely think sculpting is the way to go! 😁
Great video! I really need to play with polygel more!
Thank you love!
And yes, it's so much fun! 😁🤗
