Such a pretty set, those could be wedding nails too. I'm amazed your chrome worked, cause technically, it shouldn't. You cured your white, after each nail, so by the time your ready for the chrome, your product should be over cured!! Leaves me to believe, your white cures with a sticky layer.? Over curing is a huge issue with chrome, it's why we under cure the top coat, when doing chromes. It's nice to know that chrome will work this way - so thank you for sharing this. 😊
I've been trying out making press on nails recently. How do you keep the cuticle area of the nail from getting bulky? Love your videos! They've really taught me a lot!
Before painting on the nails, file the cuticle part just a little , and then buff and then use thinnn coats of polish. And it should look like a acrylic nail.
Also, I’ve found even with the above tips, if they’re still bulky paint from the tips to the cuticles. Some you have to paint with a gel pot brush too, to have more control.
Hi Val, I'm so glad to see you uploading more videos..I love your work! it is so inspirational to watch you work and see the finish product.. you NEVER disappoint! I hope you are well and the weather is getting better for you Southern Californians.. much love.. 💞💕
Girl you have me loving enailcouture sculptured square. They are the perfect shape!!! I love this set!!! I’m going to try it. I hope you are going to show the nude to milky white ombré soon. Lots of love to u!!!❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕🙄
It could be closer up... it is a bit small on my phone's screen, which is where I always watch you from... closer would be better! Thank you for all you do to help us hone our skills! 🙏🏽❤️
Oh my, I love these! I only want square LOL. You are such a good teacher. If you zoom in too much, it gets blurry. Or, maybe my eyes😂. Your work is amazing 💯💖
Oh my! Today I just bought whitr chrome but had no idea what to do next ❤ Also, youtube has the option to zoom in the video while we watch so I really like this distance cause you dont get off frame😂
Ummmm, where do we find that feature? I can double tap or try to pinch with fingers and it come it a tiny bit, but not a zoom... So, how are you zooming in?
Do you put your Zulay Gem Adhesive in the fridge? I only ask because I've been watching you for a while now, and I've purchased multiple items based on your recommendations. I have my eyes on the Zulays for a while thanks to you nd MiMi, but I said all that to say on her site she recommendations to store it on the refrigerator (I notice you called it pain in the butt to use... so it made me think) Never the less AMAZING video per usual, I plan on doing a set using chrome this coming week so I definitely appreciate the tips and trick. 💫
@@cherylakers3715 hi! Newbies always welcome 🫶🏼 Gelx is a service, a type of nails per say. Its the method where Gel is used in addition to a full cover gel nail tip and applied to the nail ( I think the brand Apres created it but not 100% sure. ) 🤍 lots of nail techs that do acrylic have started to do gelx as well. Its like when some salons do dip powder and acrylic and manicures , they’ve now added gelx too because its become popular 😊 And actual gel is just gel as in a type of nail product that cures with a UV LED lamp. Its like a nail product , it comes in hundreds of forms and brands such as gel polish color , base coat gel, cat eye gel, glossy top coat gel, matte top coat gel and so on 😊
Does it matter if you use the sculptured vs non-sculptured ENC shapes? Are they both fine for most customers? I like some of the sculptured shapes but I’m afraid they won’t fit customer nails bc they’re more sculpted.
I use kiary sky at the moment but i hate it for press ons because of the sensor! The one i had from amazon was my fav I had it for 2 years before it gave out on me ❤ it was the SUNUV 48W UV LED light lamp ( SUN4 black )
Are you still doing sizing kits? Or are you doing small,med,large? My issue is picking designs and deciding what to do when starting. Can you do a video of what to put on your site/page to sell when starting ..im totally over thinking
i think this angle and closeness is perfect..
the smile line of the french is soooo crisp!! like it’s giving a computer did but we know it didn’t 😭
Omg thank you! 🥹🥹🥹❤️
Love French tips! Very pretty ❤
I use Beetles top coat as well. It’s pretty awesome

Thank you! I think its the sticky layer ❤️❤️❤️ i didnt know it would work until recently when I didnt feel like adding top coat first 😅❤️
@@Nailsslayedbyval It's amazing the greatness that has been discovered through laziness...
Lmao 😅

I've been trying out making press on nails recently. How do you keep the cuticle area of the nail from getting bulky? Love your videos! They've really taught me a lot!
This is something I'm dying to know too 😂
Thin coats!! That will help you and also file that area down just a little before you start!
Some people file it down gently with a drill.

So pretty!! So do I just put the powder on the sticky layer of white gel that is left behind after curing?
Yes 💕

Hi im just starting my nail channel you are a great inspiration. Do you have any tips on doing press on????

@@Nailsslayedbyval thanks
How long do it take to do a set of press on
Newbie here so crazy question, what is difference between gel and gel x

Gorgeous set, I prefer to be zoomed in a little more but I might be on my own there. lol
Are press ons considered retail sales? I don’t know which category to pick for my LLC
Yep, retail sales... it's a product
Does it matter if you use the sculptured vs non-sculptured ENC shapes? Are they both fine for most customers?
I like some of the sculptured shapes but I’m afraid they won’t fit customer nails bc they’re more sculpted.
l just started press ons and l have a uv light but it doesn’t work good so what uv light do u use or what’s the best
I use kiary sky at the moment but i hate it for press ons because of the sensor! The one i had from amazon was my fav I had it for 2 years before it gave out on me ❤ it was the SUNUV 48W UV LED light lamp ( SUN4 black )

My clients with measure themselves i have a video on here showing how or they can purchase a size kit ! I also have a video on how to do size kits 💕
And i can definitely talk about that in a future video !
To me it is small, zoom in a little more🥰
I agree 😅
🥰🥰🥰
Ooooooooooo❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes too far out on the zoom. If you could zoom closer by just a bit...thanks for this!!!
Yess I definitely will! It looks far 😅
