I got into doing apres soft gel extensions a few months ago and developed a gel allergy (only after I'd dropped $100 on their holiday sales of course...) Tried everything from HEMA-free gels (nope still allergic) to adhering with regular base/top coat to no avail and I didn't want to use glue. Never done dip before so I had no idea dip base was more sticky and I'm looking forward to trying this method. Thank you so much for posting this! (Edited for clarification)
You’re the Queen Weirdo and I mean that in the most loving, kindest way!🥰 Thanks for taking the time to make this one of the very best “Nail” TH-cam channels ! You rock MARLA!👍🤩💅🏼
I did this, and filed off and soaked off my previous gel dip nails from the previous application. It took me 4 hours.!!! Started at 8.00am and finished just in time for lunch. But full coverage tips worked out beautifully. And it was a life saver as I’ve discovered that I am allergic to certain products. 😢 and I can cover up my poor damaged nails with the tips until my nails grow out.
Idk how I missed this video on your channel - I love watching you dip your nubbies (most similar to my own), but when you have extensions, they're so beautiful! I've been dying to see an application video... I haven't been a subscriber for long, and am watching the past, idk, 3 years of videos out of order, ha! I think in one I watched recently you'd mentioned how awkward you are in applying your own, but that you'd done your daughter's on camera, before... so glad this video came up on my feed. I tried the polygel hack last week, half popped off before the week was out. Applied a fresh set with base gel last Sunday, much more successfully so far. Definitely trying the base liquid method next!
I developed a gel allergy as well (after doing gel nails exclusively for two years). I will say just be careful about the full coverage tips you use. Some of them are made with the same ingredients as gel, so they will cause a reaction. I found out the hard way after buying some tips that said “acrylic” or “plastic.” 😩 I dont know if you watch Dip Nails By Jewlz but she has a gel allergy as well. She uses Triple D’s full coverage tips and hasn’t had any issues. If you need a full coverage tip option, those tips might be a good option. ☺️
I love how you showed us all the nails instead of just showing how you did one and speeding it up !! Thank you!! Also I have a question could I use my base gel or is that a certain base you used? Should I do the nail glue instead if I can’t use just a regular base and do it how you did it? I hope that makes sense! Again LOVED THE VIDEO thank you!! ❤
From what I've read the Revel dip base coat is quite sticky, like glue but more flexible. But I've not done dip before so I can't say! I've adhered nail extensions with builder gel before and it worked well.
Thank you so much for your kindness!! I used Revel dip base bc it’s slightly thicker than most other dip base but you can use whatever you have at home!
Hi Marla. I had a horrible experience with a gel pot last week. My hands broke out in a rash and I couldn’t stop scratching for 4 days. Thanks for sharing this. I’m usually a person who works with acrylic.
If this ever happens again take a antihistamine like Benadryl. I had the same issue last night because I skipped a step and the glue came into contact with my skin the Benadryl fixed it.
Great video, especially for those with allergies 🤩🤩😍🤩. I am thinking about those with allergies, so I don't miss your gorgeous Pink lace overlayed nails that went Bye bye.🥰. They came out beautifully🤩🤩🤩💓
as a new nail tech who trash her nails trying all the products and a drill for the first time this is going to be my go to until nails are better and ill use my practice hand from now on
So simple, they look great, too!! Though I have to admit, I got soooo excited as I thought this was the video I've been waiting for that shows how you used the Revel Nail extension tips. I bought them after you suggested them and haven't tried using them since I got them because...well...I'm a nube when it comes to tips and I need a tutorial - I'm way too wimpy to try them without a how to video.
I love it! I admit, last year I wasn't able to use gel as much as I wanted to. So instead I finally got the nerve to try Revel Base & Revel Top Coat along with GH Base & Lavender Violets Base when applying Kiara Sky Gelly Tips & some plastic tips off Amazon. I had been thinking to try it since I started getting into nails. I knew it would work but I wasn't expecting it to last longer versus applying them with gel. Really, I couldn't pry 'em off if I wanted too! And I wash dishes & just always handsy with my hands ya know. Lol. I was waiting for you to upload this video so I didn't feel like I was a crazy mad lady breaking rules. & to be completely honest the Revel & GH lasted 4+weeks. Thanks for sharing Marla(: you're the best
Thanks for this, Marla! I've been wanting to know what I can do if I ever do develope a sensitivity to gel. How strong are the tips by themselves? I'd be worried about cracking or breaking them if I don't dip over or them. If they are strong enough, they'd also be a great option if I want something fast.
Lorri, I can tell you that there are a lot of hypoallergenic gels on the market, thankfully nowadays! I’m a licensed nail tech and over the years I’ve developed a few allergies but once I stopped exposing my skin to the products, by use of gloves and being careful not to come in contact with any of them, my allergies disappeared. It’s important to know exactly what you’ve developed an allergy to, specifically what ingredient and then stay away from using them for a good long while. Today there are so many safer and less toxic products on the market you can use and you might find a year or 2 down the road if you go back to trying one of your old favorites, you might’ve just had a temporary allergic reaction but not have developed a lifelong allergy. Good luck and have no fear, we gratefully live in a time where there are hundreds if not thousands of options out there! Have fun trying new products! Enjoy creating awesome nails.👍😁💅🏼
You definitely want to make sure the extension fits from side to side without forcing it too much. You can always customize the extensions by filing slightly to get the perfect fit!!
Fab idea! No gel allergies, and hopefully, it stays that way, but I like having options. Thanks, Marla. BTW, what are the best affordable, preferably Amazon, full covers, for ppl like me with a higher/sculpted natural apex?
You can use any extension you find that interests you! I’d look for longer extensions tho.. typically the longer the are, the higher the apex is. Then you’ll just have to chop the length the down. 💕
I love it! I apply my full coverage tips with acrylic and monomer :) they last for WEEKS and can usually get a couple fills out of them. I love this idea though!
Right? I used to use acrylic but I really hate the smell of monomer, and my current roommate would not be able to stand it. I understand there are odor free monomers out there now but have not researched them.
@@lorriangus I use the acrylic the same way Marla uses the dip base here! Then I use the polygel nail clips to keep them in place until the acrylic sets. After that I usually use dip powder over the tips
Marla!! You gem!! I would have never thought to do this thank you for sharing! I tried full cover tips with gel and it was such a hot mess i thought i'd have to just scrap the whole idea but this looks so much easier to do. Do you think this would work if i have flatter nails and my tips had more of a curve to them?
Hi Marla! I've never done dip before but I have been binge watching your videos the past few days. You're so funny and seem to be really knowledgeable about dip. I was wondering...Do you think I could use shorter full cover gel x dummy nails that I already have? They're from a company called Gelike EC and they're Extra Short Coffin Full Cover Pre-Etched Soak Off Soft Gel Nail Tips. What do you think? Thank you so very much ❤️ 😊
Wow..I think I need to give these a try. My nails have gotten a little weaker as I may have filed them too much with my efile. Do these last long enough to fill in and for normal daily activity? Thanks for showing us how to apply them! ❤❤💕💕
Hey sweets! Longevity usually depends on how you prep but I did literally NO prep and they lasted me a whole weeks before I had to soak off. Zero lifting!
With this video being 6 months old, I hope you see this comment/question… Would it work the same if I were to brush the dip base on my natural nail first, instead of on the tip? AND, in your video for doing dip powder over these extensions, you use dip base and only rough up the tips before hand. Would the “prep” be the same if I were to do dips using the gel method?
Hey love! You can brush the base on the nail BUT depending on the curve of the extension and the curve of your nail, you may need excess base to fill the gap between the nail and the extension, so it’ll totally depend on your nails and your extensions. As far as dipping over them, I’d suggest giving them a slight rough so the dip sticks to them to avoid pop offs ❤️
I've been waiting for this ever since you dangled it in front of me like a carrot last week in a comment in the Mani Fam group on FB 😂 I have a question though... I would need the thickest dip base on the planet; do you have a recommendation? My nail beds are super flat with almost no C-curve when they grow out. Even tips with a small apex, like you used here, have quite a gap when I apply them.
So pretty and looks doable! 🙌🏼 Can I ask what you like about the Belle efile as compared to like the iGel ones? Looks the the price point is similar. I'm still on the hunt for good quality, longevity, low vibration, and power in an e-file.
Can’t speak to the long-term durability bc it’s still kinda new lol but I love it! Very quiet, no vibration, torque is FANTASTIC, hand piece is slim and light.
@@MarlaKris sounds awesome! I noticed mine is starting to get tired when I use it too long (I'm still slow w my efile because I'm so meticulous and still in the process of getting super comfy w it.🙈)
Hi Marla, quick question do you need to cut your natural nails before applying full coverage tips? Thanks in advance. Wish we could order just the size tips we need. You are so amazing with all your videos ❤
I hear ya on the sizes! Seems so wasteful. But i like to use the off sizes to swatch or practice on! You don’t “need” to cut the nails but there’s less chance of lifting with less nail
Hi. Are these good for flat nails? I’ve tried a few other brands, supposedly for flat nails and they still hurt because they pull on my nail bed. Thanks
I did notice how good your hands looked in your selfies lately. Not that they didn't look good before, ya know what I mean...😅 I bought the lotion 😐 LMAO!! Thanks for sharing 😘
Hi Marla, How in the world do you avoid nail damage? No matter what I do, it happens. I just did powder on my nails yesterday with a peel off base. I decided I didn't like the color so I just tried popping them off. BAD damage. I think I will try 2 layers of peel off base next time. If that doesn't work, I'm going to try another brand.
Giiiirl! This is a game changer!! Soooo much easier than that dang glue which I manage to spooge everywhere! Once again, thank you immensely for your vids! That have changed my mani life (and I'm really anal about my nails! LOL)
I’m so afraid of tips. I know I would poke my eye out. I LOBE that Retinol hand cream. It goes on my hands and right up my arms every night. And I love rhe light scent that it has. I wish they sold it in gallon tubs!
THANKS MARLA! This video just sent me down a very expensive Amazon rabbit hole, lol. Love ya 🖤🖤🖤

Which full coverage extensions are these?
Hey Marla, can tips be put on over builder gel?
Yep sure can! But I’m not sure I’d recommend it
They can. But if the gel lifts the tips will come off too. The tips can also cause the gel to lift and it may take some natural nail with it.

It definitely varies from person to person. For me, resin and dip lasts longer than gel! It’ll totally depend on the individual and the nail type! 💕
Weirdos?!? 😳Not cool
That's Marla's thing. She doesn't intend to be offensive. Try to think of it as a playful thing between friends.
The shape is ugly.
Then don’t wear them 🤷🏻♀️
