But honestly what sells your stuff is your designs. I like your tutorials for dip. Sometimes I go nuts seeing nail artists super used to acrylic or polygel, etc have suuuuper thick dip nails but yours never are, very nice!

What a great tutorial! I’m severely arts and crafts challenged, but you did a great job making a complicated design look easy (though time consuming!) enough that I may need to try this for myself!

Wow, that came out so pretty. I don't think I would have the eye to create this, but I plan on trying.

So clever!!

MIND BLOWN!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for making this video!!! : )))

This is so pretty I can’t wait to try it! Can you explain a little bit why you use base coat and activator over the alcohol ink layers? I thought both of those liquids were specific to the powder itself

@MelissasManis

2 жыл бұрын

Because the dip top coat needs activator to dry properly. If I had applied activator directly to the design it would have messed it up, so I sealed with dip base first then activated!

OMG! Alcohol ink? I had no idea. I have many inks. Brilliant! The only question I have is how do you save that base dip powder? I suppose you could scrape off the top colors and save the rest, but can you after you dip and it mixes a bit? Powders are expensive. Yes, alcohol inks are also expensive, or can be (just don't buy from Ranger ... they're WAY overpriced), but you use SO little. Going to have to try this! (without the expensive dip ... have to find a solution that doesn't use so much expensive powder). I'm seriously going to try this. Absolutely beautiful!!!

That is amazing! I wanna try it but with blue - I have a thing for blue. You mentioned you use peel base? if you do cloud you do a tutorial in how to use and remove and all that, please?

Super pretty. But I don't understand why you add the layer of base before the activator? Seems like getting base mixed in with your activator would mess it up, no?

This is stunning! What kind of alcohol do I need to spread the white and marker the way you did? Thanks!

@MelissasManis

I jist used rubbing alcohol! I think 70%?

Love your videos! Just started doing dip nails a couple months ago and ready to try some new designs. What does it do when you put a base layer and then activator right after?

Flash dries the base :)

I tried this and the alcohol did not “melt” like yours did. What type of alcohol did you use?

Hi, Melissa, thank you for sharing this. I just subscribed to your channel 😊 I love the spoon idea too! I was wondering why you choose to use an alcohol marker for the darker color but the liquid for the white? Could you also use a white alcohol marker for the same effect?

@MelissasManis

The white is an alcohol ink. I have only found white in a bottle so far :) I'd love if it came in a marker!

@@MelissasManis Thank you, I was just curious as the marker seems a bit easier for me to work with. I'll have to give them a try!

Was the base, dip powder base?

Can't read the white bottle. What is that?

Are you putting the activator directly on top of base or did you dip it into clear and then activate when you encapsulated your marble layers?

@MelissasManis

3 жыл бұрын

I put the activator directly on the base! I would only dip in clear also if I intended to file a bit after.

Is it possible to do a marble look but with clear and white? I just bought nail dip powder and I want to know if it could work 😭 I’m barely starting

The nails look good, although I do think the foil on them would look better had you used a thinner brush to put on the glue, because then you could've made the foil more like the lines in the nail, and that would've made it look more like it does in actual stones... but it was still a great video, and a good looking nail 👍

I appreciate that you'd have a different vision for this 😊 That's the beauty of art! It's so subjective!

Melissa: You call them "fracture lines" but they aren't. "Veining, or the long, meandering lines of color that traverse natural stone, is one of the most desirable characteristics people look for in natural stone because of the elegant yet organic look it gives. In geological terms, veins are sheets of crystallized minerals within a rock".
