using org mineral peel as a cuticle remover is THE BEST IDEA EVER 💡!!! thank you goddess for mentioning this in the video. I will never go back to soaking in water or other products! ❤ ❤ ❤
my nails grow naturally square, except for my pointer finger lol its more oval-ish, but still kinda square :P how would i file it to match my other more square nails
sofiamaria94 you will file the edge horizontally until it creates a 90 degree angle with your side walls. unfortunately it means you may loose a lot of length depending on how strong the oval shape is
This video is so visually appealing! I love my natural nails and I'm always looking for new tips and tricks, and I definitely want to try out that base coat and nail file!
Breathtaking Video ! Tutorials Like This Are Priceless And So Important In Showing Proper Nail Care Routine And How To Do And Not To Do Long Beautiful Natural Fingernails Tip Shaping Correctly. Thank You !
Ohww I remember the old routine. I think it was the first video that I've seen from your channel. And I still love the video on how to do the almond shade. Thanks xo
I followed your method and my nails grew so much. I also started carrying a nail file everywhere so if ever I got a snag I would file it right then and there and that also was a game changer.
I love it when my nails are long enough for me to shape them! I personally love the stiletto. The almond shape is my second favorite. Great video as well! 😄
Thanks so much for the video! According to your video, it looks like squoval is best for me, which is how I shape my nails. And I love that diy cuticle oil! My nails are stronger already!
Thanks for the tips on how to shape oval nails. I followed them and I think for the 1rst time all of my nails look the same. I cannot stop admiring them. Thank you.

Very interesting and informative video! I usually do the same things in my nail care routine except that I don't use cuticle softener or remover, I just push them back and moisturize them after I've done my manicure and have painted my nails! I think I get the same result! Love your video xx love you
This video has been amazing! I've always labored over shaping my nails (I like the almond shape), just by filing a little more here and a little more there - and at the end of the day, the nails would all be different lengths and shapes :( You broke it down so well how to achieve oval and almond shapes! I'm gonna share this video with all of my friends. Also, you shared some really helpful products and nail care techniques. Thank you!!
so much envy I have for your nails!! I can't get them past a certain length because it makes it irritated with the fact that it's long! gah! but seriously, nail goals
Stunning! I went to purchase the milky white base coat and it seems to be out of stock on multiple websites. I was wondering if there a similar base coat you recommend? xo, new sub!
I first thought she said “chew it up”, not “true it up”!?! I love to straighten up the sidewalls, but I do it when there’s polish on the nails, for strength.
If you can do an other video about the diamamcel files. Please talk about the nails one as well. If its any different from normal files. Also the feet ones which once u find usefull. Or if we need to get all three files or they re all the same.
can you use a regular base coat and then do a gel overlay? I noticed that doing at home gel nails made my nail a bit thinner/weaker - but it saves me a fortune in time and buying regular polish that only lasts a few days.....thanks!
+Sydney McFerren Im re-filming it. the technique i use is actually the same as my "fix a broken nail with gel' minus the silk wrap. so you use that as a reference
I ordered the milky white base coat from Amazon after seeing how lovely it was in your other nail care video, but I find that it peels like crazy! Does this happen to you, am I doing something wrong with it, or did I just happen to get a bad bottle?
nope, I never have that problem. Try dehydrating your nails prior (you can use a primer too) and never wash your hands before you polish them. Your hands should be completely dry
Great video, thanks so much! How long does the diamancel nail file usually last? It's more than what I'd like to pay, but if it lasts awhile I may look into it.
I really enjoyed your video but would like to try some of the products you mentioned, however there is no list of products beneath the video. It just says, "coming soon". When do you think that will be? Thanks!
I love almond nails and nearly all my nails are round at the cuticle, except my thumbs which are square. Should I just square those off or could I almond them too? also, I subbed because I love your videos!
no no no thats the worst thing u can do file down the sidewall further, that emmm beginning gives strength to the nail, support, :( use cuticle oil to avoid dry skin there
So I'm having a huge problem. My C-Curve on my thumb. I used to do acrylics with barely any knowledge and I tried pinching and completely bent out the C-Curve on my thumb. I have considered putting acrylic on my thumb and curving out the other side as well but I heard it's really bad to pinch your nails too much. What do I do?
+ReshiK Keep in mind, I dont have professional training but i dont think itd be a problem. Even regular nail polish reinforces the c curve, so it it isn’t unnatural.
You actually don’t need to trim to encourage growth. Instead I recommend keeping your nails painted at all times to help protect them against accidental breaks and apply oil daily to the the surrounding skin and underside of the free edge (if you have the length.)
essentially, you’re going to lose some length. So assuming youre ok with that, you want to cut enough nail that you have a straight free edge and side walls or pretty close. Then reshape the new edge as outlined for oval.
lgcoolstuff if your wearing builder gel as an overlay or extension you dont need to soak everything off, you just file off the color. You can wear regular polish over builder gel as well
find a task to substitute your nail biting. Its usually a habit developed when people are anxious, etc so when you feel your trigger emotions, instead, draw, write, or anything else you enjoy. Now you have to let your nails grow out. I recommend rubbing oil into them daily. I use jojoba, almond, olive, or any oil i can find in my house. This alone will do wonders!
Oh i see! Unfortunately theres no way to change the shape of your nails beds. But you can sculpt extensions to help camouflage and build the nail structure that you want.
@@abetweene i do cause a chemical peel uses acid-even natural acids to slough or get rid of skin cells. Its just a weaker version (been researching about them for yrs). I think it is ingenious of u to use an acid peel to take off cuticles. Im gonna switch from using traditional cuticle removers that use NaOH or KOH (they dont always work that well). They do, however, have alphahydroxy acid(acid peel) cuticle removers now.
alpha fish: You need to pick a shape, and stick to it. Having all your nails oval, for example, will look more finished. Are the majority of your nails one shape? Most peoples’ hands do have different nail beds, my thumb is square and others oval, for example. I have them all oval, right now, but rounded square, or tapered square, for longer nails, are nice too.
I appreciate the effort you put into the editing! Thx for the vid.
thanks!
Same. It's great! :D

This is the ONLY video that I felt explained filing! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I have different cuticle lines on different fingernails 😩😩😩 what does one do in this case
Lol, go with the majority.
I thought I was the only one who loved to blush over my nails after I do my fresh manicure. It just looks too good to cover with colored paint.
I paint my nails anyway - I just go for a sheer polish.

What if your cuticle lines/proximal folds are all different on every single nail?
can you use a regular base coat and then do a gel overlay? I noticed that doing at home gel nails made my nail a bit thinner/weaker - but it saves me a fortune in time and buying regular polish that only lasts a few days.....thanks!
PurpleQQuueenn No, gel needs to adhere to the natural nail.
I was looking for your gel overlay tutorial last week and couldn't find it. Will you be reuploading it?

craftsandnails Filing the sides of your nails does not weaken them. It’s a common rumor. Your natural C-Curve is not affected by your free-edge shape.
your nails are amazing❤💙
Sedr Ammar thanks!
abetweene ur welcome 💗❤

Whats the name of the nail polish u are using in the start of the video? Love the color
sorry i dont recall. It may have been Opi bubble bath or a custom mix.
Where did u buy or tools ?
where did u get that nail file? looks like it works really well
Sephora. It really does. Its made from diamonds so it never dulls, and its stainless steel so you can wash & sanitize it
hey girl I thought u was going to show how to make your clay for your hands I'm waiting girl
Would love to know where you got that bucket for your cotton peels from, or what it’s called.
Michael’s
I loooove your videos!They are very helpful! :-)
My nails are naturally short. I dont want to grow them out because all I can see is dirt and all that gunk. But I want to look put together
How long did it take for you to grow out your nails? Btw love your videos!
about 5 weeks. Thanks!
Can you provide links to the products you use please?
What was the name of the nail polish at the beginning? And how many coats did you use?
OPI Samoan Sand, 2 coats
So I'm having a huge problem. My C-Curve on my thumb. I used to do acrylics with barely any knowledge and I tried pinching and completely bent out the C-Curve on my thumb.

You actually don’t need to trim to encourage growth. Instead I recommend keeping your nails painted at all times to help protect them against accidental breaks and apply oil daily to the the surrounding skin and underside of the free edge (if you have the length.)
@@abetweene Hi, was wondering wether we can apply the oil on painted nails and expect the results. Very informative video, thank you!
Yes you can. Massaging them will still encourage growth ♥️
Hi, which nail bit could I use to buff the natural nail? What about a thick nail? Thanks.
id probably suggest just a hand sponge file of 220 or more vs a bit. it would ultimately be cheaper
I love your channel
Tieasha S. Thank you!❤️
How can I go from almond to oval nails? I like the more round aspect of them!

+cityoflovefashion I dont go to a single one, so probably not. Sorry im no help, lol
Thank you. Very informative and helpful. You'd think the almost shape would be more intuitive.
but the soak off gel right? do u have to remove the gel every time if u wear gel polish over it
lgcoolstuff are u referring to builder gel or gel polish?
To the builder gel ... and can u wear normal polish or gel polish over the builder gel 'nail'
lgcoolstuff if your wearing builder gel as an overlay or extension you dont need to soak everything off, you just file off the color. You can wear regular polish over builder gel as well
Thank u will u do an extencion video soon with soak off gel (sorry fpr my bad english)

very nice video
thanks
How much nail should be grown out before being shaped like an almond?
the shorter your nail bed, the more length youll need to achieve the almond shape.
abetweene so is it bad to shape nails like almonds when they are real short cause I did that is it bad ?
no its fine
How did you get your natural nails too grow oval shape the nail shop tell me I can’t get it😩
our nails dont grow in a particilar shape but you can file them into whatever shape u want
@@abetweene ok thanks
i thought that filing the very sides of your nails creates hang nails???
only if your file is too high of a grit and you don't take precaution to file properly.
Can you do my nails? lol I love ur videos!
Id love to, thanks!😉
My nailbed is not very good because I was biting my nails. What can i do for this help me pls?
find a task to substitute your nail biting. Its usually a habit developed when people are anxious, etc so when you feel your trigger emotions, instead, draw, write, or anything else you enjoy. Now you have to let your nails grow out. I recommend rubbing oil into them daily. I use jojoba, almond, olive, or any oil i can find in my house. This alone will do wonders!
abetweene actually I stopped biting my nails. Now they are growing very well but the only problem is their(my nailbeds) shapes.
Oh i see! Unfortunately theres no way to change the shape of your nails beds. But you can sculpt extensions to help camouflage and build the nail structure that you want.

have samples that they can see in person. itll save u a lotta time.
why are my nails so wide 🤔
just lucky that way
Your nails are amazing but I think you should file your nails in one direction
I usually do... Its just hard to film and position my hands the way id like.
