Same! And I now do my nails off my hand and then attach them with acrylic or if their not too opaque I use solid nail glue. My sets have never been more 🔥. I love getting a new set at my own pace.

Same here! I put on a show or comedy and just get in the zone! I have been trying all different types of ways to do my nails. I am still a press on princess but I am experimenting with lazy girl and gel x. I want to be able to rotate depending on how long I want it to take and what style I am going for. I also just purchased some acylic I am going to play with but more in making press ons I don't really want them like the salon attached I like to change them often without having to efile forever or soak forever lol gel is my favorite to work with.

When 2020 hit i would watch your videos with my mom all the time in our home. Now in dec. 2023 im 3 months away from graduating from nail school and close to getting my license! Honestly feels like a full circle moment watching your videos while im in school rn 😅😂❤

You were actually quite influential in my nail journey. I watched all those old videos and bought a couple of kits, but ended up going back to the salon. I kept watching videos and finally started doing polygel on my own and fell in love. Been spending ridiculous amounts of money since on my nail addiction. I thought doing my own nails would save me money, but I can't stop buying products! It's fun though and I am always proud when someone compliments my nails.

See I thought I was spending more until I added up what I spent in 6 months on my "hobby" vs what I'd spend in 6 months at the salon. I fef didn't spend more thsn 1800, only about 600, so 1/3 thr price! I have a whole nail desk/nail area now and I'm going to cosmetology school in thr fall for a career change.

I was just craving a nail video from either you or Emily, your timing is amazing!!❤️ I started doing my nails in March 2020 and I have now been doing my nails for about 3 1/2 years and I love being an at home nail girly ❤️

Nail glue or some gel or a combo of both.

I love Beetles! They never do wrong in my opinion. I started my nail journey in 2019 when I was pregnant with my first baby and because I didn’t want to use monomer I became a press on nail girly. Now I have a small business where I make press on nails, it’s called Hood Polished. You are my KZread inspiration. I learn a lot from your videos and your creativity to get the job done says a lot about you. I pray God continues to bless you and your family. In Jesus name, Amen. ❤

I know this comment is old, but I looked you up on Instagram and your nails are crazy. Amazing. ❤️

There is something about a pretty polish on a well shaped nail that is just EVERYTHING.

“Be bold. Be you. Be BEETLES.” Is wild 😂 I did my nails on and off for years before covid. But back when I started gel nails wasn’t even a thing. Acrylics or bust. So, I’m very happy to have the ease of gel nails to use now days!

I went back to the salon ONCE this year (I usually do my own gel nails at home). They gave me an acrylic set, and can I tell you how PAINFUL they were?!? I didn't even get long nails! But whenever my fingers even so much as grazed anything, that acrylic was tryna rip my natural nails off! I didn't realize exactly how flexible gel nails really are befoe that, bc my at-home gel nails are waaaaay longer than any acrylic nails I've ever been able to wear, and they don't bother me. My at-home gel nails also don't break off randomly like salon acrylics 💅

I love that you don’t act like you never make mistakes. It makes people want to watch you more. People who act like they are perfect and never make mistakes bug me. I’m totally enjoying your video.

Mrs. Evie i have been doing my nails at home for years now. I have a gel allergy but I now use the gel polish to make my own press ons, and glue them vs adhering them with gel. This gives me the ability to do all my designs on nail stands, which allows me to be more artistic.

the last time I got my nails done was in 2021, I had started doing them at home during COVID and decided to treat myself once things were opening up again. I spent $80 not including tip on some baby boomers at the salon and I didn't even like them lol so I went back to doing my own acrylics ever since. my skill has improved so much that friends and family have asked me to do theirs. All thanks to watching your videos!

The intro song is everything🎉... love the videos

I love just a good old basic nail video every once in a while! These are very beautiful! Just gorgeous

You have a beautiful family and I love how your man is genuinely interested and knows about your 'inventory' and supplies. It's so sweet. I did a set like this on my daughter and they lasted longer on her than acrylics. She's always picking at her nails too and they held up for 6 weeks at least. They were cute. I used LV designer foils on them. 😊

Don’t worry about doing what you want to do on your nails even if it’s simple, we will watch regardless. We love you ❤

Yay! i’m finally early on a video. My daughter and i love your videos. Thank u for keeping it PG always 🥰 families who watch u appreciate it.

You have such a beautiful family and home! I always feel like you give a realistic perspective for someone who wants to start doing their nails at home. I feel like I can achieve things based on your instructions and experience, whereas some other nail tech tutorials just seem way too complicated. Things needs to be simple to start! So thank you for that! ❤

I started following you about 10 years ago when I first started playing in makeup lmao. I genuinely enjoy your energy and content. Eventually after watching you for years and being fed up with nail salons I started practicing my own nails. I started out with the kiss acrylic kit that was maybe $5 at CVS. I've been doing my nails ever since.

@21:28 I understand!! I love it when I do a simple color- I still get compliments!! Super powah

I love the freedom to be as wildly creative as I want. So I definitely will continue to be a nail DIY-er.

That polish colour is *gorgeous!* Love it. Your family is adorable ❤

Been doing my own nails since COVID. Literally learned it all from your videos ! What to buy, good brands, and tips and tricks ! I love your videos !!

The babyyyyy she so adorable! and the nails were cute too lol 👏🏾

That color is absolutely beautiful! I love it!

I've always done my own nails because I prefer gel over acrylic. The nail salon I used to go to preferred doing acrylic or dips. So I kept doing it myself.

I started watching you and Emily in 2020. I was staying at home with my mom after leaving my little apartment in nyc during the thick of Covid. She saw how obsessed I was with your nail videos and got me a bunch of stuff for Xmas. I’ve been doing my own nails since, I don’t do them regularly. Just when I really feel like it. But I still religiously watch you and Emily and tons of other nail-tubers! Such a therapeutic hobby I’m so glad I got into. 🖤💅🏼

I used to be in the nail salon every 2 weeks, but I started doing them myself not only because I knew I could but also to save money. I love doing my own nails, especially since you introduced me to polygel. I'll do my toes too, although I still enjoy a pedi every once in a while. This set is super cute!! 💜

I'm so excited to receive my kit in a few days. I bought mine as a birthday gift to myself from Amazon for 20 dollars. It came with the lamp tips glue top coat a nail brush rhinestones and 12 polishes. I feel like I got a steal for the price... Thanks for the tutorial.❤ Wish me luck 😂❤

The original beetles has been the best apres dupe that i've tried. i can't wait to see what they've updated.

Even though it’s one solid color, they’re sooo pretty! Mya approved. 🥰 Would love to see you test out the BTArt Box full cover tip set. Some come with designs already on them.

I love this kit. Been using it for 2 years now and I’m happy to say I can use this kit and have professional looking nails that only cost $16 once a year instead of a basic white acrylic set that costs $60 every 2-3 weeks 😂😂❤️❤️

Oh, I love Holo Taco so much and actually have this color. Your nails are stunning and I promptly bought a Beetles kit (mostly for the lamp) and shorter extensions - so thank you for doing this video. I would never have bought this kit otherwise!

beetles products and pre-scored full cover tips cut my mani time in about 1/3 prep gel glue the tips paint boom I would still be doing 4 hour manicures without you, hon! been watching for at least 5 years!

Beautiful set! That color is cool!! Thanks to you and your brand, I'm still doing my own nails! The independence to do them like I want and not being charged wild amounts and off and on attitudes of techs, I appreciate the tutorials you do! I actually get more compliments on my nails now! ❤💯

I do my own nails for 7 years now using polygel, buildergel or full cover tips. You're absolutely my favorite creator and a big inspiration when I'm clueless what to do with my nailart ❤ Lots of love from Netherlands

Your daughter is beautiful 😊 toe bean is such a pretty colour. ❤

So glad the intro is back!!! And now i have to pop on my beetles nails for my day off fun with my hubby 🥰

I have this exact same kit and absolutely love it!!!!

Intro and outro...love it! The nails are so pretty. Sometimes less bling is better. Drawing attention to your nails is also advertising your brand and your channel, so it makes sense that you don't get to do it often. Peace and blessing!

Heeyyy Evie!!! I love this recap. You are the reason I started doing my own nails during COVID. I am still doing them myself to this day. You inspired me then and you continue to inspire me to this day. I’m no where near as artistic as you are, but I get the job done!!!! ❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Shout out to you for keeping us girlies in the know, for these products you test out for us. I use the products you deem “worthy”!!!! Thanks for the vlog AND especially for our Saturday night Sip and chat!!🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

Hey Evie!!!! How are you? Thanks for sharing ❤you're the real GOAT!!!! Hey Marcus!!!!

my stepdad got us ladies our first nail lamp back in 2020 for valentines day and i have only gone back to the salon once, and it was for a girls day in atl with my grandmother :) i adore learning different ways to do nails and being my little sisters personal nail tech is the best, theres no going back now😂

I love watching just prep and polish.

You are the reason I got back into doing my nails after having my daughter. I didn’t go to salons or do my nails at home I just had natural nails. You reignited my nail passion and I’m so glad as I really enjoy doing my nails. I’m a polygel girl and have never tried acrylic so I would like to venture out a bit. I really want to try aquarium nails too!! ❤

I do a combination of diy and salon, interspersed with periods of trying to grow my own. I love the salon because I find it really relaxing.

I love that color!!!! I love those cotton candy and iridescent type nails too! And I'm a purple girl rather than pink. Lol. 💜

I used to go to a nail salon before Covid but I started doing my own nails this year. I can’t see myself going back to a salon again. Love your videos Evie ❤️

I now do my own nails since 2020, no more shops. You’re videos taught me alot

I went DIY with my nails long before the pandemic cuz yeah I was not paying those prices to just not be happy with the job they were doing. Well hard work doing my own nails it's also very rewarding. I love it when people say " I love your nails" and I get to say "Thanks, I did them myself!"

I ordered that same kit a few days ago and was desperate for a video about it! Your timing is impeccable Evie!

evie, your videos are so comforting to me on some of my hardest days. thank you for all of the content that you make! seeing you smile and seeing your happy family always makes me feel so much better. ❤

Baby girl is adorable. Love the simple nails. Love holo taco polish.

Yasssss the husband intro is back!

I just re-watched the old video last night. This is right on time!

I’m so at home girlie. I’m obsessed with doing my own. 3 tall cases full of nail stuff lol 😂 I started with your video of the Allure Dip powder kit. Now have acrylic and gel products as well as dip powder, all kind of tools and gel polish. Girl I got carried away lol 😂

Pre-pandemic I used to get my nails done every three weeks (very short with a solid colour gel polish). During the pandemic I got a lamp and my own polishes, but after watching your videos I wanted nails with sparkle and fun designs so in the last year I switched to Kiss and Dashing Diva press-ons and that’s where I’m at. I love being able to change up my nails weekly.

Your voice is soooooo soothing me and my 2 year old daughter fell asleep 🥰

I started doing my nails in about late 2019.. just polish and polygel. But during the pandemic I began getting more into both polygel and acrylic, using nail tips and nail forms. I also would do some nail art and I got good surprisingly. But I got pregnant in late 2020 and the smells would give me migraines so I stopped. I learned from watching you all those years 🥰

I'm still doing my own nails. Everything I've learned was on KZread. I love your Chanel💓

Love the simple nails! Also enjoy the little clips you share of your family. So lovely 🥰

I’ve been doing my own nails for about 2 years ever since I started watching you and your videos😉

My nails weakened significantly as part of a chronic illness (&/or the medication), so I'd just started going to a salon when Covid started. At first, I just tried doing lots of coats of nail varnish, but watching nail videos inspired me to try polygel, for stronger nails that lasted longer. I like nail stamping, glitter, & rainbow manis, but don't use charms, even though I love the look, because I bang them all the time. But kawaii nails are my favourite to look at!

You know your a OG when you remember watching the older videos

I love watching your videos I started doing my nails with salon prices and being disappointed with the end result I watch you and do my best . If I mess up I fix it myself thank you so much

Yesss love the update version of the lamp. ❤❤ Love 🎉your videos and content. You are always amazing and awesome 👏. I am a at home girlie.

Proud at home nail gurlie, because the shop ALWAYS disappoints 🤣

Awesome video again!!! And thanks hubby for the into again!!!

Love this color and the regular nails!!!!

I use these tips and love them. I have a hand held light with a stand. Amazing !! Love the Beetles gel polish as well. Pigment is amazing with just 1 layer !!!

Seeing you and your beautiful family just makes me happy. You guys look so happy. ❤

i love how your husband knew it was the lil amazon kit. so cute and supportive! i just discovered your channel after purchasing a Beetles gel polish and UV light kit. so excited for it to get here :) i will have to try the extensions once im confident with just polish lol!

Thank you for this basic yet beautiful set, and I even appreciate the wonky nail that you fixed too. This seems totally doable!

I think that is one of the best and most accurate holo tacos reviews. That halo taco be hittin' ! Lol and did!

I ordered the kit after watching this video! It really is a game changer! They're so easy to put on, easy to file, sturdy, and stay on really well. I'm in love 💘

There was a girl in my hometown who did gel polish from home a couple of evenings a week. When she said she was moving back to Ireland I got my first mylee nail kit from Groupon and I've been doing them myself for more than 5 years now 😆I love beetles colour sets because I need to have *all the colours* and all the stamping plates (used to be from wish, now it's usually the Moyou ones when they're on sale). My nails take a beating at work, and I do pottery every week, so doing them myself saves me a fortune and means I can fix or change them whenever I want, or whenever I trash them on the wheel 😆

❤ She gave us the intro!!!! That’s so epic! ❤

I was literally thinking fir the last 4 days to buy that nail kit dupe that you tried and then , BAM! heres this new updated video

DIY!!! & I LOVE IT HERE!!! After 2 nail fungus episodes from 2 different salons, I followed you E & havent looked back since. I have gel x nails thats just been sitting in the corner, dont feel like polygel so this video was on time. Thank you E

I've been doing my nails since then. You've been my teacher

I love this simplicity of this set! I love the creative nails and the simple nails, you can do no wrong in my eyes Evie 😊

THANK YOU for this video! It should be the top suggestion when looking at this kit. Very informative, easy to watch and easy to follow the steps. I’m so excited to get my kit next week!

I started doing my nails when u posted the first beetles kit video. Bought it and haven’t stopped. I now do myself and my friends. I am still in fact a nails at home girly

Love these and love H how happy they made you❤

I absolutely LOVE these!!! Perfect for everyday wear! 💜 And what a precious family ending 🥰

I just recently started some self care and I tried to go back and coming across your videos has now got me to home nail care. My nails grow long but very thin. Just getting into press on.

Gosh, I LOOOOVE your voice and anything you do with your nails. ❤ Your giggle makes me happy!

Love your videos, your nails, and that you share little snippets of your family. Thanks for sharing with us. ❤

I have a crooked finger too. It was only after your videos that I realized I could make it look straight by putting the nail on "crooked." Thanks for the tips and tricks, and for making Patty Gel because it is literally the best.

I’m all DIY and people like you make it so much easier! Thanks Evie! I LOVE your halo taco one color look! Gorgeous!

So grateful for your og intro being back I was having the worst day today and just came to your channel to catch up cuz I been so busy I fell behind & the way this is healing my soul ❤ you have no idea how grateful I am to you and your channel. Been here for 6+ years now and the way you cheer me up so I can have a better day ❤ thank you for all you do your really THAT GIRL ❤ AUTHENTICALLY 💅🏿❤

I am a simple, polish nail girl as well! Maybe a cute design, like an ombre, or a marble, but that’s about all. And I am all about DIY! I always used to do my own nails every Sunday afternoon with regular polish when I was in my 20s. It was just a relaxing activity I enjoyed after church and after Sunday dinner while watching TV. Fast forward to 2020 and I was using press on nails but they kept popping off. I started looking for ways to do my nails but make them last. I didn’t realize that I was caught in the wave of the DIY nail trend during the pandemic. I had started watching you around the time you got pregnant with Mya and your videos were so helpful. I tried many different products and styles of application, and the one that I can pull off most successfully is this Beatles styled dupe. Except I have the Kiara Sky mini lamp. I think I bought it based on one of your older videos!😂 Thanks for your dedication to continuing to share with us over the years. I love watching you do the crazy nail sets and Marcus’s reactions! It is literally my entertainment!😂 But I have no intention of trying them out myself!🤣

Girl, only you can take something that is so simplistic look beautiful 😍 ❤

🤩 love the nails. Beautiful family as well!

I’m a press on girly now. Quick and effective. No uv cancer risk. No shaping or buffing. I found a glue that holds for 4-5 weeks. Never looking back. The only extra thing I do with my press ons is apply OPI primer and top coat to keep the design from chipping and provides a high gloss shine.
