“Most of the time I feel like we don’t finish them in one day” The truest statement ever. I’ve been doing my own nails for years now and unless they’re very basic I always finish them the day after. I purposely make sure I don’t have anything to do that morning 😹

That’s so real! I used to set aside an entire day to do my nails because I didn’t know if I would actually pick it up the next day or if my brain would just say nah 😂 two days is actually much more reasonable, thank you for this 🙌🏻

I have found that etching the underside of the nail tips helps mine last, and not flooding is something I have to work on, but it's great, especially for the price and speed

Girl these came out good af! You’re really really hard on yourself and you don’t give yourself enough credit! You killed these, and your skill has come soooo far from your first mail video, you’re so talented fr! Been wanting some cherry blossom stickers but you’ve inspired me to try at least try painting! 🌸 💖

Beetles also sells big boxes of different gel polishes, they're small bottles but if you like changing colors often they're pretty nice for the price! Some of them even come out decent in 1 coat

Yes! I absolutely love their small bottles bcuz when i have big bottles, they go bad before i can finish them! I have 3 different collections fro them and 1 from modelones(hustbgot it today, so excited!). These are for my personal use, but i even end up using some of the colors for my press on business when i don't have the exact color/dont feel like or can't mix it.

I use this kit and I’m obsessed. I was doing poly gel for a while and it was just so much work. These are so easy and they last FOREVER. They do soak off as well! After 2 weeks I soak them off and just apply a new set. I have never had one randomly pop off or anything and I work at a grocery store so I’m constantly using my hands.

I use this kit, and im super hard on my nails. I will pop a nail off every few days but they dont snap or break like when i had acrylics. 100% will continue to use this kit over having to get refills every few weeks. Id rather just pop a new nail on then have to go back to the salon to get my entire acrylic redone.

Such an easy kit to use. I have it and have used it quite a bit. Easy for when you need a quick set and don’t have time to sculpt 🙌🏻🧡

@@leluxemanicurist What did you do for prep, the usual buff, prime and bond? Did you etch the tips? I find when I do all the prep, the nails still pop off after not too long. Also, do you think the "glue" with this is the same as a base gel? Sorry for all the questions :P

@leluxemanicurist

@@jemma8925 I use a coarse file on my natural nail but only very lightly and a few strokes to rough the surface. I find using a buffing block makes it too smooth. I then wipe over using either acetone or alcohol to take away any excess dust or oil. Then go in with a dehydrator and primer. I then do a coat of base gel on my natural nail before gluing the tips on with builder gel in a bottle. I think the glue that comes with the kit is slightly thicker than bad gel but I’m not a fan of gluing the tips on with it as I find it too liquid-y. Builder gel in a bottle is a lot thicker and find it much easier to get no bubbles/ lifting. You can etch the tips as well that will also help with adherence 🙂

This video was so helpful! Especially the part about ADHD and the steps you take to help with planning your design. Makes it so much less overwhelming! Thank you

The happiness I feel when you post a new video!!! Hope everything is going well and wish you and your husband a good week! Love you babe ❤️❤️

The flowers turned out a whole lot better then you’re giving yourself credit for Emily! I think they’re adorable and go with the theme perfectly. You did great ❤️ I am actually going to recreate those flowers on my nails tonight!!

As someone who also struggles with ADHD it is so inspiring to see you learning new coping mechanisms. This set turned out so great!!!!

I have one of those little goose-neck lamps and I LOVE it! The way I do my full cover gel tips is flash cure each under the little lamp for maybe 10 seconds, then give the whole hand 60 seconds in my big lamp when they're all on, just to make sure everything is fully cured and solid.

I’ve used it before but I’ve etched the underside even though it doesn’t tell you to do it it just stays longer. I absolutely love those nails are so cute. Such a good job❤️

I do too.. and I kinda scrub the gel glue into my natural nail and apply to the tip and squeeze on like shown here. They last me 2 to 3 weeks before I remove them.... only had three pop off in the last nearly year I've used this kit.

This set was honestly so adorable, I'm in love with it ❤️❤️❤️

Hey, Emily so glad your doing this, I was curious about this kit. This set is truly going to be awesome.💅🎨✨✨✨ Your nails are fire, be super proud

This is such a cute design! Beetles tips and polish work great, especially for the price.

I love the set you did. They are so cute. Cherry blossoms are one of my favorite 💐.

You are so crazy talented, these nails are amazing. When you showed your design I literally gasped cuz I was so excited for it🥰

I love this set and your drawing skills have definitely improved you need to be proud of yourself and definitely post the design xx

Always great to have an Emily video on a Sunday afternoon! I have tried the beetles kit and I really like the tip glue, it works well and stays great!

Thank you for linking the lamp, I’ve been struggling getting both hands under my lamp when I do full cover tips and this will be a game changer!!!

I love my beetles nail kits!! I have the dip powder, a couple of their gel polish sets and this tip and glue set! They’re my favorite. I’m a serious nail bitter so using these plastic things to keep my nails out of my mouth without spending bank at salons. Saved my life. My nails are actually growing now

Thank you Emily!! You motivate me to do my nails and lately I just haven't been in a mental space to do that for myself :( I love this set so much you are so talented 💕

So proud!! I always try and plan my nail design prior, sometimes I don’t get the creative spark but when I do things always go by so much smoother :). Such a cute set omg!! 🖤🖤

In love with these nails. Great job, they are beautiful!

Also, I also have ADHD, and putting yourself in the mindset of working WITH it instead of against it is such a game changer. I get comments all the time about my methods of doing things being strange but I have found what works for my special little brain and live a lot more comfortably now than I ever did trying to do things "normally." I absolutely love that you are finding ways to work with yourself and finding your own methods. Never forget to give yourself grace, and patience. ❤

Thank you SO MUCH for linking that lamp! I literally just paused the video to go order one😅 I have a UV flashlight that I usually use by propping it up on a box but always end up having to redo a couple nails cuz they end up crooked, so this is gonna make it so much easier!!

Love seeing both sets of nails, glad u made the other match!

You always amaze me love with such creative nails. I got this kit a couple months ago and still haven’t tried it yet. I’ve been getting nail stuff here and there this past year but I haven’t used any of it on myself yet because I’ve had to give my nails time to heal because I about lost them all and thankfully didn’t and about lost my toe nails too from chemotherapy for the stage 2 triple negative breast cancer that’s I’ve been fighting this past year. All my nails are pretty much healed up so I’m excited to finally do something cute to them. I’ve been watching and learning from your videos and some other creative nail artists I watch here on YT. Thank you for doing these vids sweet pea and know you have someone in southeast Kentucky that admires you and your creative nail work. 💕

So impressed with the cherry blossoms!! I’m glad you didn’t give up on them! 💖

That lamp has been so wonderful for me. I do my own nails also and that has been a game changer trying to hold tips in place while curing.

Your videos are always so relaxing! I love the vibes! 🖤

They are so cute. You did a fantastic job on karomi. You're nail art is getting so much better. It's cool to watch you grow. Awesome job beautiful.

This set turned out so beautiful! 😍 I love the Beetles nail tip set. I have reviewed this kit on my channel and use it all the time. They are actually my favorite coffin tips. To get them to last longer etching the inside of the tip makes a huge difference. Mines normally last 2-3 weeks. Thanks for sharing! 😊

I will never understand how you do nails so perfectly 😭 I could never! I love this set!!

Love the set 💖 When I'm doing something tiny like the smile I prefer to use a tiny dotting tool or even a needle. They are more stable than a brush.

What I do is file the back side where you going to put the gel glue on it. It last 2 to 3 weeks that way, I like this product very much. The design was super cute 😍.

Uuuu yesssss, I've heard about beetles a lot but never bought anything so I'm excited for your review on them

These turned out amazing

I have the regular Beetles gel nail kit, I like it a lot. When I saw that set on Amazon, I instantly thought about getting it. I’ll definitely try it after seeing so many videos about them.

I’ve bought and used this kit once so far. I wasn’t super pleased with the nail tips, but I was really happy with everything else in the kit, especially the nail lamp and how it allows space for both fingers to be placed in while curing. At least until the gel in the nail tip cures with the pressure on it to avoid air bubbles. I have also bought and used Aprés system with their mini light and it’s so hard to turn the lamp on and then go into the light to get both fingers under there with proper light coverage on the nail with the tip. But I seriously love Aprés Gel nail tips and how they feel on my nails after finishing the full set. It’s like they are my own nails, they seamlessly blend into my skin and on my nails so effortlessly. Now I use the beetles lamp with Aprés nail tips and have the best system ever down pat when I do nail tips over my nails. I prefer my natural nail when they are long and stay that way for a while, but they do eventually break, and that’s when I use nails tips until they grow back out again. Thanks for the video, and I LOVED your nail art so much! You were legit as close to the original looking nails that you had mapped out on your phone as you can get imo 😊. Looking forward to what you will show us next time, it will be great I’m sure!!! 😆 take care, and stay safe and healthy. 😊🙋🏽‍♀️💜💅🏽😍

I love full cover tips. Thats all I do on myself. So quick!! And I always plan out my design on practice tips so I can just get to it. I do alter things sometimes (most of the time 🤭), on at least 1 finger or design. Always etch the underside of the tip. And even though that little lamp held them in place; a full cure in your regular lamp is highly recommended

These are so beautiful 💕

Your natural nails looking so good!!

love the set, i am just starting a course to be a nail designer and you are such a inspiration

Love beetles. Loved this set! TFS 💅❤️🌸
