Hahahaha like the all the sudden cut to being halfway done w the manicure like how did we get here so quick??
I love those „self nail „ Videos and the salon vlogs 😍
Love it all but especially love the watch me work videos…😊
Love the nail prep❤
Beautiful as always!!! ❤
I'd love to learn how you decide what nail art to do and would love any tutorials!
Great video! Loved the nail prep portion of it 😊
Enjoyed watching! Always learn so much from you ❤ More nail prep please!
Love it allllllllll 🥰
Dreamy!!
I just discovered your polish with Kokoist & I believe this line will be my saving grace with my nails! I cant wait to try more!!!!!
I would love to see different combos with your kokoist colored base coats and gel colors! Like this one you paired Overcast and Pool Float and I think I saw you or another creator pair Milky White and Strawberry Milk? I haven’t gotten into mail art yet but these combos open the door to more possibilities!
I’m jealous of everyone ambidextrous whenever I do my nails.
Currently my nails are done with your Taupe Base and I love it so much! I definitely want to try pool float, such a pretty colour!!!
I love watching and learning from you my favorite is the nail prep. Just curious to see how I’m doing but how long does it take you to do you own nails start to finish?

Oh it could be like 2 hours or more ! It depends on the length of my nails / design/ how much i care that day 🙈 filming slows me down even more
So beautiful!
do you have a video about how you film/make nail content? I'm just beginning as a nail tech and love the style of your videos

I don’t ! But maybe that’s in my future ! I have a thing called an arkon mount that i used in all my salon vlogs that just holds your phone straight above !
Hi, where can i get your left handed bit? Thank you!
Colour looks great! Can I do short nail extensions with fake tips with tinted base colours. Or what is the best way to do short nail extensions with fake tips ( not using nail forms ). Thanks ❤

Thank you so much!! I do know that people do use my tinted bases for those clear gel extension tips! Most of the time i personally like to use my clear builder base when using those, just to create a nice blank canvas for me as opposed to having built in color . But it all depends on the look you’re going for!
Loooovvvee your videos. What dust collector is that? Thank you!

Thank you so much!! That dust collector is just from Amazon! I think it’s linked in the description of this vid!
i desperately need to you tell us how to be less rough with our hands!! i think my prep is fairly good, but im so rough i always end up getting lifting on my free edges and have to redo my nailthoughts builder gel manicure completely from scratch (bare natural nails and all) once a week :(

Personally I think I’m rough when I don’t take my time like I’m always in a hurry
Hello beautiful and neat job, can you recommend where to buy your electric e file please ? Thank you
What dust collector are you using?

It’s just from Amazon! I linked it in description for ya ☺️
Could the color be soaked off or only filed? Xoxo

It can be soaked too! But easier and quicker to file off 🥰
For how long do you cute each nail?
