Cristine, if you ever decide to do the nail oil maybe you can do a nail pampering set. Nail oil and gloves. The gloves could be cotton lined satin and reversible (if possible) and maybe you could find a holo satin. You could bundle the gloves, the oil, hand cream, and even the trimmer set. Nail care is such a beautiful place to start when attempting self care and it's something everyone can do regardless of whether or not they use polish. Hope you consider something like this. 💚

Love love LOVE these "classes". I've attended every nail painting 101 as they are a nice refresher on best nail practices. A nail painting 102 would be cool using maybe more tricky polishes (multichrome, chunky glitter, etc) or some basic nail art (simple gradient, decals). Personally, I peel off the polish from my skin because I can't see well enough to take it off with a brush. The thing is, the nail polish on my skin dries separated from what's on my nail so when I peel it off, it never removes the polish on my nail. I've become a fan of wide brushes because I find they cover more of my nail in one swipe which means I need fewer swipes to cover my nail and then the polish looks better as I've messed with it less. I bought stickers! I have way too many clothes so stickers are a great way for me to get these designs! Keep bein awesome Simply!

Ok simply, you've convinced me. I bought a HT glass file a long time ago, but I just couldn't get used to how it felt. It was squeaky and gave me chills. But after watching this I gave it another try and realized that I needed to give it a different angle, and now my nails are so much happier. So much less frays than with an emery board! And I have a permanently split nail caused by some nerve damage, but the glass file was able to cap off the end so maybe I'll be able to grow it a little longer now!

It feels so wild being here with actual nails to take care of. I've been an extremely chronic nail biter for 18 years, there were points I barely had a nail left, I'd bite the nails and skin off. It took me several years to stop skin biting (I had gotten to the point I was biting past the knuckle bend on the fingers) and unfortunately my nail biting increased. I've grown my nails out ONCE before, they were so bendy I could bend them in half flat to my finger tip, they broke and I bit them off and couldn't do it again. And finally, after getting fake nails done so I *couldn't* bite my nails, I finally have decent nails. I even cut them down because they were long. I'm still struggling with them being extremely bendy and weak but I can finally watch these videos and apply them to my nails. It feels like an accomplishment. I watched you for a couple years and remember wanting to do all those fun designs and have long pretty nails, I am on that road! ❤🎉

What I didnt see addressed about polish thinner is using one with only Butyl Acetate and Ethyl Acetate, some have extra ingrediants in them that may harm the glitters and holos. Michaels also has super small glass jars that are about 2 inches tall and an inch or so wide that I fill with acetone and use for dipping nail art/clean up brushes and qtips forclean ups and use a pump top bottle for full polish removal and cleaning stamping plates with cotton rounds and the pinching tweezer things (the long ones that hold onto the cotton itself)

Simply!! My biggest question on nails is how to keep the nails healthy right after you've removed a mani. I feel like my nails are always weaker and much more prone to chipping/breaking, then i have to wait so long for the nail to grow out and become healthy again before i can put on a new mani. I do use a base coat and i just use acetone to remove the polish. (Also ignore this if it's addressed in the vod.. I'm 30 min in and didn't see anything in the timestamps mentioning aftercare)

My nails always have separating layers after clipping them. I also have a fairly strong C curve, not as much as Cristine, but still have to clip the nails one side first and then the other to fit inside the clipper. Right in the middle of the nail, where the first half ends, is where the split appears. I believe is the releasing pressure point. When my nails are dry, I can see instantly the lift layer (my nail becomes lighter in that spot). So I understand that maybe it’s not advice for all, but it can influence a lot the nails of those prone to this kind of breakage - I had to cut my nails short many times before getting this :(

They are candy corn 😊 I just had a huge issue with my nail which caused an awful reaction I use gel nails and used the remover gel to remove them. I've used it for years. Well, must have been a bad batch, bc the remover gel went under my nails and ate away at my skin, down halfway my nail 😭. Years of doing this and now it happens? So bizarre and painful. Killed my skin under the nail and the nail too and made my nail lift and harden. Horrible experience even had to go to the derm for meds. The Drs had to do a huddle with the head Derm Dr to confirm this craziness. I had just given my nails a week plus break to, now I have horrible looking nails, no longer painful, but it will be a while before I get to play with Polish again.

Does anybody have any tips or tricks to help with that?
@Ann-ec6uu

Could be prep, in which case check if you're missing a step or doing something differently. Might be the type of base coat you use, it took me at least 5 base coats to finally find one that works well for me without it chipping in a day or two. Long lasting one has worked well for me, I'm able to go almost a week without chipping now. Could also be the top coat. I found a glossier thicker top coat doesn't chip as easily on me if compared to a thinner top coat. Lastly, could be the type of nails you have. It could be a number of reasons including thin nails, overly bendy nails, overly brittle and hard nails to name a few examples. I found The Salon Life here on KZitem have really good explanations and suggestions. Hope that helps in some way

What do you do if your nail polish will not dry? I only paint one coat, coat is thin, still takes 24 hours to fully dry one layer, some brands and I end up messing up the nail or it gets too dry before I can get the second layer (I have a job and can't paint my nail just any time) and then wears off because it is a thin coat. I do live in a very humid place.

If acetone or remover has been used, you can't reverse what it's done to the polish. If you added a small amount it may not be too noticeable and hopefully it didn't eat away at the holo. Done this to a few old polishes before I knew better. Adding thinner won't do too much in my experience, especially if there's acetone involved but could be worth a try. Just make sure the thinner is suitable for glitters, some thinners can ruin the glitter. I did try adding nail polish base that's meant for mixing your own polish, which seems to have worked a bit but it's not perfect. Not sure how it will be in the long run either
