Thank you for this video. I’ve been learning how to do my own dip nails & only ever made it to 10-12 days, as they take a beating with my wheelchair lifestyle. I learned a lot from this video!!! Looking forward to seeing how long I get out of this set using your tricks!!! They look way better already. 🙏🏻

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for all your tips and videos, are so helpful

Friend, you are so incredibly detailed with the explanations. So good and so thorough. You Queen!!👸

Could you please do a video or point to one where you do dip powder, activator, and then a gel top coat and how to avoid gel peeling off a base/color dip powder?

I usually do color for my apex too! 😆 but I had so many say they’re free edge was much darker from all the layers so I thought I’d give clear a try 🥰 I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving week!

Can u maybe give tips for people with longer nail beds?

Hi, is base powder and clear powder the same thing? (I have a lot of problems with cracking so going to try it your way today 😊) thanks x

hello ! :) before you used the second layer of activator, did you only brushed off the dust? no alcohol wipe?

Hi So ive had cracking as the main problem. The next day they always crack. I gave up! Tried to do how you showed , two layers in the middle,two over the nail , a total of four. The three nails cracked the second day... I thik im done doing them. I even changed the nail shape from square to almond. I hafe to say my nails are on the thin side now but wven when they are healthy and strong its the same thing. I use revel system. Any advise? Ty

can you please tell me the liquid you use on your nail for the powder

So pretty I love the square shape and red on your nails! ❤ I hope I find the patience for the apex. Lol. 🤣

Very helpful! I've been having issues with the corners chipping as well. Are some brands of dip more prone to chipping than others? I've been using Joya Mia dip powder, although I think theirs goes on thinner than OPI's.

@SipAndDip

8 ай бұрын

I feel that some liquids + powders are more prone to chipping because they’re thinner. In that case I would add more layers to try to supplement for the thinness 💕 the tall tell sign is if you experience chipping/cracking with 1 brand and then try another brand… and no longer experience the troubles then it’s probably the products!

If I just wanted to wear clear only would I then do a full coat of the clear going up to the cuticle?

@SipAndDip

7 ай бұрын

Yes! So I would do all of the same steps except just clear. I would try to make sure after you build up the apex to have between 2-3 full layers 💓

Hi Chelsea, these nails came out gorgeous. I love the color I have a question though I tried to do dip powder using the gel liquids for the very first time and I love it however the very next day the tips of my nails are chipping. Do you have any suggestions as to why this is happening thank you.

What did you do different that will prevent the color from being darker over the middle layers?

By using clear dip powder for the apex. The color layers are all the same depth.
