I like to apply the polish from the outside finger (pinkie) to the thumb. That way I don't inadvertently touch wet polish with the side of my hand while working on the next nail.
That makes perfect sense - Thank you!!
What Jan mentioned is the first thing I was going to suggest. The second: to avoid air bubbles in polish do not shake but instead, gently roll the polish bottle between both hands to let the beads do the mixing. Well done Kerry-Lou and Jan! ps...I worked as a licensed manicurist/nail technician for many years.
Tina V. Thank you Tina, it takes a village LOL!
I know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a way to log back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the account password. I would love any help you can offer me
@Weston Deacon Instablaster =)
What perfect timing Kerry-Lou I did exactly what you suggested this afternoon! It took a long time but I safely removed all the gel mani I had prior to the lockdown but which was growing out. You are so right... I could see how fragile and damaged they were so I have spent a lot of time treating with nail oil and protection and I kept them short too. Thanks for the great video... we all deserve to take time for self care in this challenging period 💅🏻 💕💕💕 stay safe everyone!
I'll bet they'll look beautiful in a month or so. Also, one of me subs reminded me of nail buffing - I am going to get one and do this again, I remember liking it years ago, it might be a good thing for you! all the best! x
Hi Kerry-Lou, a wonderful nail tutorial from such an endearing lady. As a professional in the hair, skin and nail business for 50 years, I have a suggestion to make polishing nails a little easier. If you’re right handed, paint your right hand first. Lefties should paint their left hand first. The reasoning for this is because it’s easier to apply polish with the weaker, unpainted hand with less chance of a smear. As for the “free edge” of the nail, I always like to consider the size of the nail bed so the fingers don’t look too short. You happen to have the beautiful hands and nails we long for. Thanks again for your sparkle!
Thank you so much for this advice, I have received some good tips after posting this video! I will have to do a follow up tutorial in a month or so, and would love to include the advice you give here - it takes a village lol!
Thank you so much. Love this video ❤️
Always top notch!
Just like you I like to go to the salon for a pedicure but I do my manicure at home. Thank you for sharing this video with us I really enjoyed it ❤️
Also your hands and nails are beautiful
Thanks so much!
Good evening. I am a new subscriber. You have such a lovely voice very soothing as well as ladylike. Great video have a wonderful evening
Thank you so much!
Hi Kerry-Lou, it’s so nice to see you this morning. You look so pretty and bright. I love your blouse and earrings. This is a great topic and I learned several things. I usually do okay on my left hand since I’m right handed. Doing my right hand is more awkward. You results are lovely have a nice week.
Thank you so much for watching Sharon! Yes, the other hand is always a little tricky to do lol! just have some Q tips and remover at hand for any mistakes ;-D All the best x
Just the absolute best way to spend a rainy day! Thank you so much!🥰
Kerry Lou , your hair is looking gorgeous! I too do my nails exactly as you do. I learnt when I began as a hairdressers apprentice, many years ago!
I was a hairdressers apprentice many years ago also, starting at 13 after school and on weekends. Nails had to be filed short, due to all the abuse your hands got in that line of work! Thanks for watching Julianne x
Perfect timing Kerry-Lou. My nails are in a very sorry state right now. As I'm sure a lot of people's are with all the cleaning and hand washing. Gave myself a lovely deeply moisturising facial last night. Now it's time to do the same for my poor hands and nails. Thank you for this. I love me a good "sq-oval" shape too. Beautiful hands girl. So lovely listening to you. You're like ASMR in these times.
Thanks for watching Emer, and I'm glad you're looking after yourself - Yes, even my husbands hands are cracking from all the washing! I gave him a little container or coconut oil to keep rubbing in his hands, it helped. All the best! x
@@kerrylou3 And now he can thank you for it by giving you a nice back rub!!
Even though I don't get manicures I still enjoy watching your videos. I was a surgical dental assistant so always had very short unpolished nails and washed a million times a day so they never looked great. However my toes are always does to perfection. lol xoCathy
Always great to see you here - I love pedi's - I'll have to pay some attention to my feet next - not for public consumption though ;-D
Hallo Kerry Lou, was für eine tolle Frisur. Dankeschön für dieses schöne Video.
Love this manicure video! Thank you
Thank you! 😊
My nails have always been weak and thin. A couple years ago I discovered glass nail files on Amazon. These have been the BEST nail files I've ever used. And, as you pointed out, only file in one direction.
The Czech crystal ones are far and away the best. They really improve the condition of the nails.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you!
I've been a UA-cam subscriber for just about four years and this was my first GRWM for nails. Thanks, Kerry-Lou. (My favorite manicurist moved many months ago and I never found a good replacement. That started me doing my own fingernails with an occasional pedicure spurge... easier on the budget, too.) Stay safe in our current 'sheltered in place' world.
Thanks for watching Barbara- all the best to you and yours!
mademoiselle - my only polish FOR YEARS!! I'm a gardener so keeping my nails SHORT is critical. Thank you for a fun video. Be well!
Thanks for watching Ruth!
Back in the 90s I had my nails done with an acrylic over my natural nails, and kept them fairly short. I worked in a bank at the time and because my hands were scrutinized daily, I tried to keep them nice looking. But I had a career change, went back to teaching and no longer was interested in the whole upkeep of them. I haven’t had a mani or pedi done in probably 5-6 years, and they are healthier now. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for sharing!
The Salon Life on UA-cam might interest those watching this.
An informative video to give me a great afternoon project while we continue to self-isolate. I do have some extra time on my hands... (pun intended)! I particularly like your thoughts on length. And love how clean and chic the final look turns out. Stay safe and take care!
Thanks Brianna, Glad it was helpful! All the best to you x
Love all your vids makes us mature ladies feel so good, your such a beautiful women with great genes lucky . 💛
Thank you so much!! All the best to you and yours x
Thanks
Hi Kerry-Lou. Thank you for this video. I was never taught to take care of my nails & skin (64yo) so this video on the basics was so helpful to me. After trying your nail filing tips, I've noticed my nails aren't chipping anymore and are healthier. A stay at home has been just what I needed to learn the basics in all areas of life. Have a wonderful day!
I'm so glad you liked this video! Yes I agree, I am doing so much fun stuff the last month! I just received a crystal nail file from OPI - it's amazing! One of my viewers suggested I try it, I'll include it in a future nail video, it's so much better than an emery board! Glad your nails are looking good!
Hello lovely lady,
Thank you for this great tutorial! Got my mind off all the sad news. Great respite!
Great information at a great time as I just removed my gel/shellac nails! What a mess. Stains on every nail as I had been wearing dark nail polish! Never again! This was very enlightening! No more artificial anything! I am going to follow your lead, Kerri! With time, hopefully, my nails will look like yours! Please stay safe and be well. Love and light, Sarah - Boston💅🌺❤
Thank so much for your lovely note Sarah! Yes, give it a few months, it takes a while, but it will be worth it I'm sure! Hugs x
I love your tutorials, I am so happy I found you. Keep them coming. I so appreciate you knowledge.you are a beautiful lady. Thanks so much.
You're welcome, thank you so much for watching!
Instead of polish, I buff my nails with a buffing cream and a suede buffer. They’re really shiny and stay healthy. Thanks for the great content.
Thanks for this advice - I used to have one of those, it worked really well! Gosh, what ever happened to it, I'll have to get another :-D Do you have a particular brand?
I’d like to try this, can you recommend a good cream and a buffer please?
Thank you so much Kerry Lou (and hello from Australia). My nails never seem to respond well to a professional manicure and now I know why. Will be practising at home from now on 🙏
You’re welcome, I hope you get good results, don’t go for length at first, keep gently filling them down. Then, don’t let them get too long. Good luck 😉💕
Looking beautiful and enjoyed your video 💕🙏🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much 😊
I noticed your nails from another of your videos, so looking forward to this one! I have JUST been able to grow nails since my early teens! Must have been missing Biotin in my life. I take Vitamins for Hair, nails, and skin. I had fake nails in the 90's and am embarrassing to admit! Not a classy thing to do, in my opinion. Thoroughly enjoyed you making this look so simple, and LOVED the way they turned out!!! Best ever length and shape and color!!! Perfect for all Elegant Ladies! Like You!
Thank you for the video. You make it look effortless. Great tips.
Hello Kerry, I appreciate your videos, thank you. I have learned and applied much.
With regards to nail polish try this.......After loading with polish place your brush just above the cuticle. This will avoid the pooling of polish that can sometimes happen.
Just load your brushwith polish, place just above the cuticle then push your brush down towards your cuticle and back up towards the tip. Much easier than trying to place it right at your cuticle. It's perfect every time.
Great tip! thanks for sharing :-D
I keep my nails exactly the same shape and maybe a bit shorter-they grow super fast! I love the tips on using a fine nail file to refine the shape, my nails are so coarse, as with my hair, so I always go in with a coarse nail file. Also, love the tip on how to get our cuticles into shape! I've been trying to do this by applying cuticle dissolver, and cuticle oil and they haven't worked for me! So, I'm going to text these tricks out- thanks!😉
Good morning Kerry-Lou, relaxing video 😊 I've been having my nails and toes done at the salon for years that I don't have supplies 😳 that includes my hair 🙃 been going into my 5th week and probably need to order supplies in Amazon. Love your beautiful hair, but I'm still covering my grays. You're one of my favorite channel ❤️ Stay safe and healthy
What great advice! I learned a LOT!
Glad it was helpful!
You have changed my life!
Check the drugstore for a Revlon product they usually have everything in one place for nails. Sally Hansen also makes one but I’m not sure if it’s available anymore. They are not too expensive and sometimes they might come with the kit. I have even seen them at the dollar store. Sally’s beauty supply will probably have the best option.
Thank you!
Great video. I really love the manicure you recommend. I started using Czech glass nail files. They are a game changer, and so much more gentle on the nails than the typical emory board.
Glad you liked it, thank you! I started using the crystal files after making this, (after viewers like yourself suggested it) works like a charm!
I love doing my nails. Mine grow very fast and are strong. I have changed to a glass file. It doesn’t wear down and it is much easier on the nail and is much faster. My nails would alwatpys split with the Emory boards. You nails look lovely!❤️
Thank you so much for the video! Your nails look really nice: Love the color of the polish.💜
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing always such informative videos. I love your channel, you're lovely!
Thank you so much, so glad you like them! All the best to you! x
I feel the same about professional manicures. I do my own. I have used a nail protein for decades, (nailtique), for several conditions. I let my nails breathe for a week or so. I seldom use color on my fingernails. Thanks for Sharing your technique.
You’re welcome, thanks for sharing your favorite product!
I like your tips, some of them I did't know and I will follow from now, personal, I use a double faced glass filer.
I will have to do another of these videos using my viewers additional tips - like the glass filer :-D Good to share tips thanks
You look fantastic, loving that hair, what are you using?
Thanks so much Adele, I'm using Bumble and Bumble Curl Creme in this video. Since growing out my hair, I have been trying a few different products, and this one is at the top of my list. There are so many different types though!
Thank you, Beautiful!
Beautiful! Thank you.
Glad you like it!
That shirt is fire!
Why thank you sir!
Like your hair growing out.
Thank you, it has it's ups and downs, but I'm enjoying it!
Sharing this video on my beauty face book Chanel.
Thanks for sharing!!
Not really although I have a smaller one that doesn’t have a handle by Revlon that works pretty well. I like the one from sally Hansen that has a little grip for your finger so it makes it easier to control and manage. You can use vitamin E oil instead of a buffing cream as well. My cuticles seem to do better when I do this as well it’s almost as if The stimulation of buffing helps them grow. What’s the satisfaction of watching TV and doing something good for myself as always
Thanks Yvonnne I'll give it a go for sure!
Hi Kerry-Lou, I love your short curly hair. In future videos, is it possible for you to periodically attempt to tuck the short strips of hair on your sides around your ears? I'd love to see your tucking technique :)
Loving your hair😀🇲🇽
Thank you! x
Well timed video with all the excessive hand washing we're doing these days. :)
You have lovely hands and I would really love to buy that blouse! Is it still available?
Thanks so much - it's by Johnny Was, one of my favorite designers right now. This one was from last year, but they have so many great items in their latest catalogue, or online. All the best x
@@kerrylou3 No wonder. They are a favorite for me too. Thank you!
TYFS 👌🏾✨🦋✨💐
What do you use for the wrinkles in your hands, your hands look fabulous?
Thanks Diana, I'm always putting creams one them, I like Aquaphor, and O'Keef's. Sometimes I use natural things like coconut oil, or almond oil. When I'm cooking, I'll rub some olive oil into them :-D I us a sunscreen on them also if I'm outside for a while. all the best x
Kerry-Lou my hands are so bad that I don’t think there is any remedy.
My damaged nails are half way grown..never again ill get gels. They are so rough.
Beautiful hands! Mine are a combination of my mom's AND dad's! How long do you wear polish until it has to be taken off and redone?
Hi Kathy, I try not to wear nail polish unless it's for something special, and then I take it off after two days. That's so my nails stay healthy, I feel the nail polish dries them out. Thanks for watching!
I like to soak my nails in warm olive oil with a bit of lemon juice for at least 10 minutes and then I follow with a nail strenghter with garlic and lemon....follow up with clear nail polish and nail color....MINDY
But you CAN file back and forth with a glass Emory board. It doesn’t harm at all.
I have the same problem!! My nails have been ruined before when I had a manicure and a pedicure! They Do file the nails too hard! Best to do yourself at home!! Gel manicures are bad too! I googled it and they ruin your nails! They really messed up my nails!!
Exactly!! Once in a while I do them for a special occasion, (Not many of those happening lately!) but then I remove the nail polish the next day.
What can I do for a split in my thumbnail which I have had for years now?
Sorry, I can't answer that - you might want to consult a dermatologist. Good luck!
I've been using Essie 4 3 months now. Now I know why Queen Elizabeth uses it😆
She does? I didn't know that :-D
You have beautiful hands. :o)
😊 thank you
Which are your favorite colors of Essie nail polish Kerry?
EARLY
Early bird catches the worm.....did you?
Do women really need a video to know how to do this?! Wow
Dont go back and forth?? And then she goes and does it😆
I'm not "sawing" over the same part - I'm going one way on each side
