Hey girl! Nail tech tip! Make sure you build an apex when you have tips on (longer the nail the thicker the apex in my opinion) If the stress point isn’t strong enough, and you bump that tip the wrong way, it could take your nail with it 😬 there’s tons of videos on properly building an apex! Too flat of a nail is asking for trouble! You have the eye for it these look amazing!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@StephanieMacedo i’ve watched like 20 of these videos cause I feel like being lazy this week and not doing a full set😫🤣 and the consensus says that if you flip each now over for 10 seconds it builds the Apex for you and self levels
I am a labor and delivery nurse so I can’t have nails for obvious reasons but I still watch because it’s you! Weird... but your hand veins are the shitttttt. 🙌🏽
thank you for these nail videos , i have been wanting to buy the stuff to do my own nails at home but was having a hard time finding the right polishes & tools, thanks to you i now have everything i need on my amazon list & will be purchasing soon !:)
Just came across your video and I am in love. I have a virtual party to go to and my nails gotta look right. I pray that they come out as good as yours. I will be watching this while doing them. Thank you so much, Stephanie!
Let me find out that Steph is a nail tech now! When are you taking appointments?! 👀😂 They look so nice and now I'm inspired to have my nails long and sleek like yours!
You talk just like a pro! This is definitely an affordable way to do my nails! I wish I would've seen this sooner I would've returned all my dip powder stuff!
My nephew named a plant fly Jager LOL I died when you called yours Roger. Love the nail videos! I have been dping my own mani pedi for a year now and have gotten SO good ❤❤
Love this video! Thank you for all the info! I want to try to do my nails as well. I am not used to having my natural nails lol. This looks easier than most I've watched,
Okay - so the sanding doesn’t completely blend out the tip, I see you use the builder to even out the tip and there’s no bump when you move from the tip to your nail bed. then go back with the efile to perfect the ‘evenness’. So the builder acts like acrylic powder and monomer
Completly off topic but i was watching ALL of your what a i eat in a day and i was wondering if you could talk about how you maintain your body « look » (strechmarks, cellulite ect ..) if you have any since it can appear after loosing weigth or gaining !
They say if you flip the nail over for 10 seconds it’ll help build an Apex for you.. that the gel is self-leveling.. and will require less filing bc it’ll be level / even
I bought the similar product after this video was posted, the brand you suggested was completely sold out! lol so I bought another brand the next day after lots lots of research lol I received it two days ago FINALLYYY from amazon.com. I have to say it is sooooo much easier to work with compared to the acrylic powder. Honestly best purchase. I was using press-ons untill today lol not hating on my press-ons, its just nice to have something stronger. thank you for posting this video!!! xoxoxoxo!! lol Watcha Self (nails emoji) lmaoo you kill me!
Hello Stephanie I just found ur channel and I love ur vids! And I have a little question the question is that is it necessary to apply the gel on the nails or can we just apply the nail tips and put on nail polish? Hope u reply :)
Actually you can’t just apply your nail polish because if you don’t apply the gel to strengthen the nail, the nail tip will pop off, I made the mistake of not adding the gel on top and it ripped my nail off when it popped off.
How do I resize a nail tip? The width of my pinky nail is SO SMALL there are never any tips that fit. They are always too big. Any ideas on what to do?
My Amazon prime orders are taking four days to deliver now, but that’s still earlier than other online stores shipping. I think you’d like poly gel nails as well, no glue needed for that kit
O,g omg your Canadian so am I gurl! Your so funny too love your videos jeez girl now I'm totally gonna buy all this shit tmr morning thanks a lot. Love all your Amazon favs and totally buying all this tmr xoxoxox
Yes they are. Builder is the gel the gel that makes ur nails strong and u can build with it and base gel is the one u put before ur color to help it last and stick (I don’t use base often)
I have been watching ur videos for sometime now and I know ur in Canada but how come when you link stuff u do Amazon.com instead of Amazon.ca? And it's hard to find thesame things in Canada and that's why those links come handy. Pls try and link Canada Amazon for us here in Canada.
no problem :) I got the same e- file as you a few months back and pretty much depend on her videos to learn how to use it. My first time I put indents on my nail and it took so long to grow out 😂
Definitely put the glue on the tip, and not your nail! Also I would kind of roll the tip onto your nail downwards instead of just sticking on on flat from the top of your nail. Then last tip, hold the tip on a liiiiittle longer! :)
Hi, great video. I'm a new subscriber. You are so beautiful. Love your content. Just followed you on IG @raiderj18 Looking forward to watching more videos. Thank you. Much love from Redondo Beach CA
I died when u said “I have so many friends. I actually have none.” I felt that

Yes I can love! They last me up to 3 weeks 🙌🏼

Yes practicing makes us SO much better 🙌🏼 and yes I name everything 😂
Love this video! Thank you for all the info! I want to try to do my nails as well. I am not used to having my natural nails lol. This looks easier than most I've watched,
You did an awesome job! 👏
Thank you! 💗🙌🏼
Can you do a video on your fav gel products from amazon specifically focusing on the polishes? There are so many options!
Hey Steph how did they hold up? I’m curious 😝
So I literally purshased everything you have so I cannot wait until I receive everything 😩😭🥰
Yayyy ur gunna have fun! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Stephanie Macedo I know I cannot wait 😩😭🤪
I believe those drills have a forward and a reverse setting so if it’s catching on you like that you have it backwards
Quick question: so you sanded the tips down with the efile @14:18 to basically blend the tip in with your nail bed and decrease that bump
Okay - so the sanding doesn’t completely blend out the tip, I see you use the builder to even out the tip and there’s no bump when you move from the tip to your nail bed.
then go back with the efile to perfect the ‘evenness’. So the builder acts like acrylic powder and monomer
Are you sure it's the first time it looks good
Completly off topic but i was watching ALL of your what a i eat in a day and i was wondering if you could talk about how you maintain your body « look » (strechmarks, cellulite ect ..) if you have any since it can appear after loosing weigth or gaining !
Yes I can do a video on this and I’ve been meaning to for so long!
Steph how are these nails holding up? Great video ! Thank you
I still have them on right now and about to change the color. They’re doing great!
Nails look real good😍 Definitely gonna try💞
Loved this video hope your staying safe 😊
To dehydrate your nails can you use alcohol wipes?
Yes you can! 🙌🏼
Hey, love the video you have so much energy lol. Quick tip, if you use too much glue it won't stick to the nail. Less is more in this case lol.
Good job! They look great!
They say if you flip the nail over for 10 seconds it’ll help build an Apex for you.. that the gel is self-leveling.. and will require less filing bc it’ll be level / even

U did a wonderful job!!!!
Bravissima Grazie!.. 🥰
can you use this tips with normal/regular nail polish?
What if you don’t have the builder gel? Can you use something else?
you can use the base coat to glue on the nails, just cure w lamp and it lasts alot longer
Love them! 🤍🤍
Omg love them❤️
Hello Stephanie I just found ur channel and I love ur vids! And I have a little question the question is that is it necessary to apply the gel on the nails or can we just apply the nail tips and put on nail polish? Hope u reply :)
Hey love! Thank you for the love & YES you can totally use regular nail polish if you want 🤍
Actually you can’t just apply your nail polish because if you don’t apply the gel to strengthen the nail, the nail tip will pop off, I made the mistake of not adding the gel on top and it ripped my nail off when it popped off.
so can you put regular gel nail polish over nail tips because i normally do polygel but it’s so time consuming😩
How do I resize a nail tip? The width of my pinky nail is SO SMALL there are never any tips that fit. They are always too big. Any ideas on what to do?
You can file down the sides, I do this anyway for most of them 🙌🏼
Wow you did a good job 👏🏻
Tip for your tip application, if you file the inside of your tip too, it holds better. I do my own nails all the time. Not a pro lol.
Ya I did that for some forgot to mention lol
So good. Love this ❤️🙏🏼😘😘
How long do you think these will last? I’ve tried to do dip nails with tips at home but they start popping off after a week lol
These can last me 3 weeks before I need a fill. Also a trick is just removing the polish and changing the color, I do this sometimes too 💕
Love the hoodie!
My Amazon prime orders are taking four days to deliver now, but that’s still earlier than other online stores shipping. I think you’d like poly gel nails as well, no glue needed for that kit
I’ve been thinking about it but I don’t like that every time you have to start all over but I’ll see
When the time comes and u need a "fill" can you make a video of how you do that?
I did babe! It’s my last natural tutorial, I linked it in the description 💕
@@StephanieMacedo ok got it, about to watch it now thanks! 🙂
What nail glue did you use?
O,g omg your Canadian so am I gurl! Your so funny too love your videos jeez girl now I'm totally gonna buy all this shit tmr morning thanks a lot. Love all your Amazon favs and totally buying all this tmr xoxoxox
Lmao your so cute in this video. You did good for your first time girl!
Thanks babe!
Quick tip- buff the inside of your tips. They will stick on sooo much better and faster!)
Ya I did this for some and forgot to mention, it’s a good tip!
I’ll be your friend🙋🏾♀️come to D.C. after quarantine!!
I know this is an old video but how long did they last?
They last 3-4 weeks 🤍
Instead of rubbing alcohol do I use the dehydrator or Can I just rinse my hands
Yes use the dehydrator instead 🙌🏼
more nail TUTS
Are builder gel and base gel different?
Yes they are. Builder is the gel the gel that makes ur nails strong and u can build with it and base gel is the one u put before ur color to help it last and stick (I don’t use base often)
Great content!
Can I book my appointment now?! 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What’s the nail glue?
Smh!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🙃🙃🙃 she be crackin me tf up. I swear. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
How do you refill!?
I have been watching ur videos for sometime now and I know ur in Canada but how come when you link stuff u do Amazon.com instead of Amazon.ca? And it's hard to find thesame things in Canada and that's why those links come handy. Pls try and link Canada Amazon for us here in Canada.
Nice video.. I would love to see more
It does take a long time! Even when you're used to it.
Good job
I love nail glue with a brush...so easy
Steph can you do a brow tutorial ???
😭 I would but I barely do anything to mine. I just trim them!! 😂 my eyebrows are naturally full unless y’all still want one
Bit of advice next time start from your pinky it makes it easier 😍
Watch ya self 💅🏽😘
🔥🔥🔥
I need my nails done asap🥺
watch abetweene, her channel has some SUPER GOOD tips for using a nail file
💕 thanks girl!
no problem :) I got the same e- file as you a few months back and pretty much depend on her videos to learn how to use it. My first time I put indents on my nail and it took so long to grow out 😂
Omg like totally
niceeee
Thanks 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽❤️
🙌🏼❤️
Definitely put the glue on the tip, and not your nail! Also I would kind of roll the tip onto your nail downwards instead of just sticking on on flat from the top of your nail. Then last tip, hold the tip on a liiiiittle longer! :)
I only buy nail glue from dollar tree for $1.41 and it works perfectly fine. The ingredients have to be the same for it to be sold as nail glue
Morgan Faber cheaper nail glues are usually less concentrated, but they are still glue and work lol
Love your nails! Stephanie do you live alone?
that came off a bit creepy!! 😭😭😭

Hello pretty girl !!!
I haven’t even watched it yet but I’m 100% positive that my nails will look like shit if I tried this :/
Over half of the items don't ship to Canada! Do you have any subs you could recommend? 😍🥰
Hey love, if you go on amazon.ca and look up the same names you’ll be able to get them 🤍
@@StephanieMacedo ❤❤❤
I love you
I tried all the fake nail hacks (with paper) and they all work like almost every single video
