Yes, they are slower drying but not as slow as some others. I really like the topcoat too! I have used 2 other brands of low/no odor and the topcoats are lacking.
My dip flu symptoms were absolutely awful with traditional liquids. I even took allergy meds and used a fan and mask! Since I've starting using Revel sensitive liquids I've had no issues with dip flu and couldn't be happier about it. Like you mentioned, it does take a bit to get used to the slower drying time of this formula, especially for impatient people like me, but it's worth it. I just ordered the Color My World set and am excited to try them out.
What a cute mani! I am a sucker for french tips, especially glitter french tips! I saw on Amazon that azurebeauty brand you use has an odorless dip kit. I personally have not tried an odorless system, maybe I should my one of my eye's water and sting just a bit while using dip liquids, just one of my eyes though, so silly! I do worry about my cats so I try to use paper towels and file outside. I definitely want to invest in a dust collector. I am tempted to try the "Color My World" dips you used. @SipandDip have you used other liquids with color my world dip powders? Did they still work? Thanx for another fun video.
Currently using this same odorless base. I love the dry time and lately I've noticed that because I have the time to carefully apply the dip base on my nail I don't have to spend much time refining the cuticle line/nail shape 🥰 it's a win-win
Thanks so much for sharing your review on these, Chelsea!! I've tried Sparkle & CO's odorless base as well as Sundara's and I liked both! The slow dry time was worth it for me because the bases were truly odorless. But I haven't found a good odorless top coat so I use the reg one. How do you think Color My World's odorless base compares to S&Co's??
I need to try Sundara’s! Several of y’all have mentioned it 🫶🏻 I personally prefer Color my worlds because I found the liquid consistency easier to control. And I know it sounds weird 🙈 but Color my worlds has the thickest quality brush bristles I’ve ever used. Like double or triple a normal brush. It makes it really easy to fan out and control on the nail. Her regular liquids are the same too. I feel like the real dream team is her odorless base + gel top coat 😆
I’ve had horrible dip flu. It’s all respiratory. I’m now using 2 different inhalers due to the cough and throat irritation. I did order new liquids that are odorless. I can’t wait to try it. I didn’t even associate my symptoms with the liquids until recently. I’ve been dealing with coughing and throat irritation since before Christmas.
Hey Chelsea! New to dipping and your channel! There's so much I want to try! I just wanted to thank you for this video. I don't really have an issue with the current liquids I'm using but they definitely have a strong smell and dry super fast! My asthma has been easily triggered lately, so it's cool to know there are other options out there (a ton of options it seems!) and the slow dry time is awesome to give me confidence to try fun things! When I'm ready for more liquids I'll be giving these a try :)
I have only actually dipped a few times with regular dip liquid. I usually use gel or the odorless liquids because my kids but I didn’t correlate the horrible sore throat and body aches and congestion I had with dip liquids till now. I have this sore throat and body aches and congestion again and I used a regular liquid the other night to swatch and here I am. I use the color my world liquids for my odorless option as well and have no issues with them 🙌🏼 I also use gel top instead of the odorless because I can’t wait. So great though!
I relate to this SO much!! I started to experience those symptoms when we moved to MD. It took me a while to put 2 and 2 together. I’ve realized (for me) it’s due to the lack of air flow downstairs where I work. I’m SO glad you gave odorless liquids a try and the gel method 🙌🏼 they’re both great alternatives!
This is such good info!! Dip liquids do make my nose run sometimes, but it’s still worth it for the quick dry time (mom life) But I’m keeping this on the back burner and maybe I’ll try them out this year! 💕
I feel this!! I am the saaame way! I never really noticed it in Fl because I always had ceiling fans running but now that I work in an igloo 🤣 I feel like the scent lingers.
Thank you for this video! Just did my first mani with these liquids. They were a bit more challenging to file down smoothly but worked with no dip flu. Also was wondering? Did you notice that the clear isnt as transparent over glitter? I cant tell 100%. Feel like i should see my glitter better....
Thank you so much for this video! I have these liquids and thought it was user error but they're just a slow drying formula!! Ahhh I had no idea. This video was SO helpful! Again thank you!!
Hey @sipanddip do you have any recommendations for dip liquids that really make dip Manis last? I recently moved across the country in the July heat, and all of dip liquids are ruined. So, before I replace them, do you have a dip liquid system that lasts? My dip Manis just do not last longer than a week.
I just received my odorless kit from Chelsea. My first try looked ok. I noticed the base liquid was thick and sticky. I reached out to Chelsea to inquire about the consistency and she hasn't responded. All of my dips fell off in a few days. Ill try again because they are so pretty.
So sorry to hear Amber hasn’t had a chance to get back to you yet. I know she recently had an issue with her odorless liquid shipment. I would definitely try again through Etsy or email to see if she can help troubleshoot with you 🫶🏻💗
Im so happy you came out with this video! I recently purchased those oderless liquids and thought I messed up or they didnt work since I waited about 3 minutes and the top coat never dried. Guess I am used to normal dip liquids that dry super fast
I totally understand what you mean! It took me a little bit to get the hang of a different formula too 🫶🏻 hopefully Amber can help too if you have any trouble with the top coat! 💖 another option (if you don’t have a gel allergy) would be a gel top coat! Then there’s no long dry time or odor 🥰
Thank you for the video! I just starte dipping and watched pretty much all your videos how to start and stuff by which kit you would recommend for beginners. Since I have two little once I wanted to try out normal smelling liquid first so I don’t have to wait long for the liquid to dry. Unfortunately after one mani session I experienced dip flu. I was wondering if you want to try the dipomania odorless liquid and compare the dry time with the color my world liquid. I would really appreciate it since it’s really hard doing my nails while the kids are napping. The length of their np time is so unpredictable that I need to get it done s fast as possible
I normally do gel method because of dip flu, but when I ordered the set you collaborated with Color My World for, I got the odorless liquids in my kit. I haven’t used them yet, but when I do a really dark or black dip, I’m going to try them! Thank you for this!
🥹🫶🏻 thank you so much again for supporting our Collab! You have such a heart of gold! I really love the odorless base in combo with a gel top coat. I feel like it’s the best of both worlds 😆
@@dianehedricks7860 remind me which is your fav gel top coat? I tried Aimeli recently but it just seems so thick that I can’t get used to it. I like it for overtop art because it levels over like builder gel but for just on dip it seems so thick
@@SipAndDip girllllll I used Modelones! I was using iGel and had a ton of it but Carrie mentioned in one of her videos that Modelones was on sale on Amazon. I went and it was $5 something for the FULL SIZE base and top so I ordered like 6 sets!😂 iGel is a bit “thinner” for me and I run all into my sidewalls and cuticle so easy, so I was willing to try and I LOVE IT! Very reasonably priced at the normal cost and the perfect viscosity, for me. Let me know if you try it, please?
@@dianehedricks7860 I’ll definitely have to check them out! I enjoy thinner too. I think maybe because I’m so used to dip liquids. Thanks girlfriend! 🫶🏻
Amber sent me here to watch your video. I literally spent 7 hours doing my nails with her liquids because it was such a different formula. Apparently I was just not waiting long enough for my nails to dry. 10 min is a long time. A little too long in my opinion. BUT to not have to deal with dip flu… I will try using my liquids from CMW again!!!
I wholeheartedly understand 🫶🏻 I really like odorless base and gel top coat! So you would dip as normal with the odorless base, activator, then file/shape. Then skip the second activator and cleanse with rubbing alcohol. Then do a gel top coat and cure for 60 sec and done ✅ totally optional but it’s a great alternative for a faster top coat dry time 🥰
Yes 🙌🏼 that will help them from getting contaminated. It’s tough to show every little bit and not have the vid be too long. But absolutely! After each time the base + top coat touches my nail I wipe it off, front and back, before returning it to the bottle 💖
Hi Chelsea, I do get dip flu and it has been getting worse. I tried the Sundara odorless liquids which I believe are the same ingredients as CMW? I had an allergic reaction, similar to a gel reaction to this formula. I have gone back to the Sparkle and Co. low odor liquids and now use a respirator/filter. I'm still getting dip flu, but not as bad.
Once I developed dip flu, I started looking around for odorless liquids. I was going to try CMW, but she was on vacation then and I needed new liquids right then, so I tried Kimberz Kreations. They did take a little getting used to, and while they take a little longer to dry than my non-odorless liquids, it's nowhere near as long as the CMW liquids seem to need according to the reviews of them I've watched so far. (But they do seem to need A LOT Of activator.) They seem to be easier to contaminate than other liquids I've used, so I'm now super careful about that, but so far I'm just dealing with it to get the not-so-slow dry times. And the lack of dip flu, of course, which is the main reason I use them.
I’ve been using this for the past 4/5 manis. I’ve been taking your advice and removing quite a bit of liquid before applying to get a thin layer; however I have experienced cracking. After consulting some CMW users their advice was that a too thin base can cause cracking. So today I have only wiped off one side of the brush. We will see….
I think im going to try this because since I started using modelones dip liquids I get a cold the next day ,after notice a pattern I use a mask and fan still get symptoms
After developing dip flu that has gotten so bad I’m coughing and feel miserable and have trouble with asthma the next day, I bought these liquids. I used them for the first time last night (I’ve used 3 other brands successfully, but none of them are low odor). Followed the directions. All went fine through activator. Then I applied my 2 coats of top coat per instructions. At first they looked great. But then as they dried down, they got extremely dull. I had a combo of small glitter, chunky glitter, and solid and they all looked terrible. Kind of how they look after activator dries or after you buff. I ended up buffing them and using another brand activator and top coat and then they were ok. It happened on both hands. Any ideas?
I am SO sorry to hear about what you’ve experienced with dip flu 😰 that sounds awful!! I haven’t personally experienced with that with her top coat but I’d totally reach out to her and see if she can troubleshoot!! I would have suggested the same thing to buff it off, activator and top coat again. I do find that I have to realllllyyyy saturate with activator with her brand. So maybe try more activator, wait the full 2 min, wipe with a dry napkin, then 3 quick strokes of top coat, let dry. Then top coat again. I saw Amber’s shops back open again so she should be able to help! 💖💖💖
Same question! I tried the CMW odorless dip liquids last week and they popped off the next day TWICE. It sounds like it’s an issue with odorless liquids across the board and I’m trying to stay away from gel due to an allergic reaction. I’m going to try regular dip liquids with a respirator, open windows and doors for ventilation and a fan facing away from me and toward the window to keep the fumes/vapors away from my face. If that doesn’t work, I think it’s a wrap on this hobby for me :(
The activator does have a slight scent but it’s never bothered my sinuses the way base + top coat does 🥰 I think because it’s not the same ingredients it’s not as bothersome
Hello! I bought these liquids and It takes me about 30 minutes to remove. Is this normal? I soak in acetone in a plastic bag with a cotton ball and sit it in a bowl of warm water. This removal time is disappointing. I don’t see specific instructions to remove. I am using different brand powders.
Oh no! That is definitely a long time for any brand of dip powder liquids + dip powder. Especially with the hot water soak off. I do have a tutorial on how I soak off that I’d be happy to share 🫶🏻
@@SipAndDip thanks so much for your reply. Love your channel and soothing voice. I am new to at home dipping. Do you think it’s because I’m not using the same brand powders? Im using nailboo powders.
@@peaceful_and_blessed thank you so much for your kind feedback 🫶🏻💖 I haven’t found mixing one brand liquids + another brands powders to affect the soak time. What would add to the soak time would be using gel products. Gel is notorious for being difficult to soak off. It’s also important to use 100% pure acetone and not nail polish remover. Here’s a quick tutorial on how I soak off in minutes plus the products all linked in the description 💖 DO’S & DON’TS Dip Powder Removal + Staying MOISTURIZED ua-cam.com/video/shbTA_S-7bY/v-deo.html
Unfortunately, that is not always enough. It can also be about the ventilation. For example, when I lived in FL I had ceiling fans always running and never had an issue with dip flu. However, since moving to MD I get dip flu each time I use any brand of regular dip liquid. I can’t turn a fan on with the cold temperatures. I already wear a mask but it hasn’t helped. Others have turned to using respirator masks. I have started using an air purifier on my desk with a carbon filter that has helped tremendously with the odor and my dip flu. There are a lot of other variables that are intertwined with the dip flu issue. Hopefully this clears up the misconception that a mask is the only solution.
What are some of YOUR favorite odorless brands? 🫶🏻
I love Dip-o-mania odorless liquids!
@@emerald_mtn ohh I’ll have to check them out! Are they slow drying as well? 🫶🏻

Or……. Just wear a mask 😷
Unfortunately, that is not always enough. It can also be about the ventilation. For example, when I lived in FL I had ceiling fans always running and never had an issue with dip flu. However, since moving to MD I get dip flu each time I use any brand of regular dip liquid. I can’t turn a fan on with the cold temperatures. I already wear a mask but it hasn’t helped. Others have turned to using respirator masks. I have started using an air purifier on my desk with a carbon filter that has helped tremendously with the odor and my dip flu. There are a lot of other variables that are intertwined with the dip flu issue. Hopefully this clears up the misconception that a mask is the only solution.
