I wonder what a blood-bath would look like? Sort of a glassy, see through red with little bits of flower petals floating in it. Or a cappuccino bath? Maybe a darker brown with creamy swirls and little clusters of pearly bubbles floating in it.

Jen Schrock I also used to have a wide nail bed and I’ve tried everything, I have reeeeeally filed them(which I regret, still trying to recover from filing the sides off) and then I saw this little “tweezer” for nails, to make a curve. I took some polygel, applied it onto my nail, cured it for 5-10 seconds and used the tweezer on the full nail surface sides to make a nice arch, you probably could look up arch nails how to or something like that❤️ And my nails have a really nice curve right now because I left the nails to grow out for two months(filling it in the same way like before when needed)

I agree. I've worn both, I prefer the feel of gel more as well. It's more finicky in the application sometimes though. My mom is a manicurist around Suzy's age and she is better with acrylic. She got really excited when she saw that they were starting to come back in style. For while it was just gel everywhere when they first came out. For this particular nail art idea though, seems easier with gel. Looks like the flowers stick much better.
I live in Kenya Africa and wish I could get access to all the products and equipment you have access to. One day I hope to be as good as you. For now I just watch and ache for the knowledge and experience you have. You inspire me.
I was just about to do milk bath nails on myself and slightly panicked when I remembered you only did acrylic and not gel. SAVED MY EVENING! I need guidance 😂 Thanks Suzie! Wish me luck! ❤️

How did they come out when you tried? Someone suggested other colors, like a blood bath with bones for Halloween, or a cappuccino bath-I'd like that with different shades of cream or flecks of coffee beans floating in.
Ii love you & "cameraman". I appreciate your classic, sofistcated way of teaching. And the attention to details : like your beautiful accessories, and the set, music, our gentle voic, are l all so lovely.) Thank both for the knowledge.
You can flash cure the nail before you add the flowers. You wil have the sticky layer on the nail, the flowers wil stay in place and its not so difficult. Just a tip love you and your work. keep doing what you do❤️

Hello fellow Aussie lol. I'm just DIY and only played with gel so far. She makes the acrylic look so easy but then when she starts talking about getting ratios right I think I'm probably better just sticking with the gel. But, I may Ebay an acrylic kit for something to do. But then I'll really need to get an e-file won't I?

@@michellemelville8979 Suzie has said in other videos, it's not absolutely necessary_ to get an E-File, just a great set of every grit course files & patience. I've thought of that too, searching for the right price & the most stable files is difficult without a certificate of cosmetology.
I really love your work, I’m 24yo and l just started learning to be a nail technician. You really inspire me in each of your videos, thank you!! ❤️
I like the acrylic more just because the milky look on top. Love the clarity of the gel though and the details you can see with it ❤️ both are beautiful 😊
I love watching your videos. Not a nail tech, just enjoy watching what you do. I don't do the gels or acrylics on myself, but I do regular nail polish. Lately when I polish my nails, it starts chipping the very next day. I try to take care of my natural nails as best I can. I put a base coat on before the color I want to use, and a top coat. I even put a cuticle and nail oil on. Just curious what tips you have for polish not chipping so fast. My favorite brand of Polish is Sally Hanson. Thank you Susie for posting all of these amazing nail videos. So enjoy them all.

Run your fingers through hair. If nails have jagged edges, hair gets stuck. That's my trick when I shape my nails. Gorgeous nails😍. I wait for your uploads, they are full of knowledge with beautiful nails... What else do we need!!😉.

That's how I usually work out its moved away from the cuticle. Sigh. Always gets caught. So I work at smoothing that edge before it gets caught and begins to lift. I'm a DIY who only started a couple of months ago and my work is very hard on my hands. And obviously I don't want to fill if it's only a couple of millimetres of growth. I'll usually file and smooth and update the colour or design.

It is crazy how much the clear topcoat adds to the effect. Wow.
This is so pretty! I usually prefer gel but the acrylic looks more cloudy/milky, perfect for milk bath nails.
Microfiber cloths can be a good test those fibers like to grab on tight. Snagging is like nails on a chalkboard to me🤗 love ya Suzie!
I’m really learning a lot from you. I’m a newbie at this and struggling to get polygel right. I want to get good with gel before I go to the acrylic. I guess I think gel is easier. I’m looking at retirement and being able to do my own nails will be a money saver. Thank you so much for your videos and sharing your knowledge.

Lu Bartulović try to stick to acrylic. I bought everything and tried doing my nails myself and I developed an allergy to gel because I came in contact with it by accident (because I was still learning). And an allergy or reaction to gel is so painful so I'd say start with acrylic and when you're a pro at that then try gel💗

Hey there Suzie! I've always loved doing my own nails and have been thinking consistently about investing in acrylic/gel/hybrid gel. I found your channel about a week ago and wanted to thank you for giving such awesome lessons! You inspired me to take the leap and as a birthday gift to myself, I purchased all the necessary tools for beginners (based off recommendations from yourself and a few other women i personally know in the nail world). Thank you so very much for your inspiration and I cant wait to get started!
Suzie, thank you for sharing your experience!
Great video Suzie! These nails are my favourite
Just started to subscribe to your channel, and I’ve been binging your videos! You’re like the Bob Ross of nails! I’m working on starting my own salon, and I pick up so many tips and tricks here, thank you! 🙏🏼
Hey Suzie! Love your videos and I'm in awe of your nail-designs, especially those with teeny-tiny details such as tiny flowers, free-hand-drawings, gears et cetera. I know you are a well-experienced Nail Tech, but do you still have some mishaps happening to yo while designing your nails? Are there any Bloopers on camera which you haven't shown yet? Or designs you tried, which just didn't work? I wonder if you could make like a Gag-Reel out of all the bloopers for us fans and future Nail Techs, to show that Oopsies happen even to you every now and then 😊
They look so good you make the gel nail look easier to do as far as application.
Omg can’t believe you’re going to be in Vancouver !!!!!!!! I’m giddy with excitement !!!!!!
Really love that youre doing more gel 🥰
The acrylic is my fav. I can’t wait to do this for Easter. ❤️
Love love love your vids. Started watching several months ago. I now do my own gel nails, thanks to you. Love when ppl ask where I got them done!! I like the gel milk bath better simply because of the clarity.
This is super helpful. I'm doing nails for a wedding and want to do these for the bridesmaids. I don't do gel so seeing you do it in acrylic is awesome. Thanks
I think I like the acrylic the best just because it looks "milkier" and more ethereal, kinda like flowers in thick mist 💐🌫️
Part 2 was worth the wait!! Your milk bath nails turned out just gorgeous!!! Seemed like the flower application was a little easier with gel because you could press them right in and they would stick better than with the acrylic version that was curing while you worked. But the end result of both versions was so very pretty. Now I want to re-do my own nails!!
I like them both for slightly different reasons. The acrylic because it's a little more translucent under the flowers; the gel because of the base pink gel. And if the milkyness was halfway between the two on both nails they would be spot on perfect. I'm going to attempt this for my next set in about 2.5 weeks! But with a twist!! Glow in the dark powder (turquoise) as my base.😊😒😌
Please do a video using polygel and plastic forms ( poppits) in a french tips or french fade?? I have a hard time fine-tuning, such as making the nail thin enough and keeping the gel from squeezing out around the nails cuticle. Would be great if you could have a class down here in the US 😉. Thank you 😊
Gel nails are SO satisfying!!
Love love love this! I love how they both came out! I can't wait to try this myself! They're beautiful! ❤️❤️

Hi Suzie, I'm wondering if you could do a price point series? I'm struggling with what I should be charging for a custom set or even a sculptured basic set. Young Nails does a series called "how much?" And it's great. But they are in L.A. I'm pretty sure there is quite a price point difference between what nail techs in L.A. charge compared to Ottawa, Ontario or Victoria, BC. Thank you so much for educating us ❤
I appreciate the acrylic milk bath nail it looks more realistic thank you their beautiful Susie
OMG!!! stop teasing us with all the sneak peeks of your product line - WHEN ? SUZIE WHEN?
Looking forward to this. Looks amazing. Thanks Suzie and cameraman for great videos.

I stopped using acrylics two years ago and I couldn’t have made a better decision. Gels are a lot more flexible.

I bet that you would do great as a nail tech, especially bringing all of that experience of being a florist into it. Knowing which colors compliment one another & the ability to create very realistic looking ones, once you've learned the 'one swipe ' technique. Last comment may simply state the obvious, but also think about the fact that she's on the opposite side of the continent than you & in Canada, so there's the monetary difference too. Either way, good luck!
Love them both ❤️😍 would love to go to the workshop but it's a bit to far as I'm from the UK lol 😂 xxx

I just love your videos! Love doing my own nails but still learning the acrylic-monomer ratio. That is giving me struggles. But I bought one of those practice hands and I practicing on that. Plus believe it or not filing/shaping is giving issues to. I didn't think that would be so hard but getting that perfect shape without cutting the skin isn't always easy. I am loving this milk bath and i really want to try it. Again I love your videos and the sound of your voice is very pleasant.

I love the Gel because it looks thinner but I agree it does need more of the milky look. I have naturally long nails but there thin so when they do acrylic it feels to heavy & uncomfortable to me. With that said the acrylic milky look catches my eye more. Great job! I love the style & side by side!🥰

I like them both but it seems like it’s easier to work with gel over the acrylic. Being that I’m pretty new with building nails I’m trying to get the thinness as opposed to the thick tips that I’m doing now while trying to encapsulate glitters and flowers. I guess I’ll keep practicing 😌
suzie: "no one wears pantyhose anymore" me, in my pantyhose:😰
I love your work Suzie💅🏻❤️
They are both gorgeous ♥️🇬🇧
When applying gel, whether it it base, builder, color or top coat, you can turn the finger upside down and let it settle into a small apex, an so no need to file (when it comes to builder, no need to file all that much because the basic shape is there) afterwards to have them perfect. :)
Hi ,Im so glad you decided to do a gel tutorial! I have always loved embedding dried flowers & so much more to nails! Licensed since 1999, yes I am old,but didnt arrive on the Titanic! Love your work,!!,Can I ask why you chose to do gel differently? By this i mean you sculpted a thin clear base,then added flowers, so why start with the milk prior to adding the flowers?? Also Ive been dying to try one of your kits, are they available for the USA??? Thanks hun!
