I can relate 1000% with you on feeling like focusing on my nails helps me feel like I have control over something in life and feel more put together even if inside I don't feel like that. Keep your head up and thank you for being real and doing beautiful nails.
I really love these watch me work videos especially this laid back version of it! I absolutely love Tracy's camera presents if that's the correct term. I just really feel like we're just sitting at the kitchen table and she's just kind of running me through her day and her technique, it just feels very personal even though she's talking to a camera and I'm watching her through my phone. Absolutely love these videos I love the channel and all of the staff! I have learned so much! Thank you guys for everything!
Big real smiles! I nodded throughout your video! Tracey...& this took you 30 min! YOU ARE AWESOME! I am gonna be as awesome one day! Its my goal!! Thank you!!
Ooohhhh....ok. I always thought that the "polygel forming system" was a different formula....😍😍😍😍 It's great to know that I can use my YN for extended use. ( No pun intended) 💯💯💯 I really must say. I am a newly licensed cosmetologist and I really want YN to be my nail foundation of supplies becuz u guys are really on it! Great tools, great products, great lessons and tips and much needed conversations.... This brand is official. I'm glad I'm getting used to what u guys can do that way when I'm ready for business I know exactly what I need from you. Thanks for having great affordable products. Your products are getting better and better and they last a long time. My last purchase was a year ago for practice and the products are still good and useable. No wasted money or products. U guys really are great. 😊
@@youngnailsinc I know you don't have polygel. 🤗 It's just that the way Tracey used the synergy I only thought that way of forming a nail was with "polygel" only. 😊 Thanks for the clarification. 💅🏿💅💅🏾💅🏼
I've been using the concealer pink base to camouflage the natural nail just a bit for enapsulated sets. I also like how there's no obvious clear layer underneath when I'm building a nail with one of the concealer colors. More than once I've accidentally filed through a bit and you can see that clear, I really dislike that. The concealer bases completely fix that
I love Tracey’s videos. She is unapologetically her true self… It takes me 2 days to form both hands (because I’m so SLOOOOW on my non-dominant hand and get frustrated and bored) it’s been awhile since I’ve tried this technique but I’m going to try it the next time I have to my own nails.
Ok, I’ve always been so scared to try this and I know it’s been a while but I finally got the nerve to do this. I absolutely love these. I can’t decide if I like these or the fiber gel with keratin.
Hard working hands Tracey!! Omg! I need to buy the nails and the gels because I do my own and I get so disgusted with my shaping. This is a fantastic video!! Thank you, Tracey!!
👋🏻💜 Thank you Tracey, I truly enjoy your videos , keep it real is very important because that’s what it is out there……again thank you for sharing your tips with us & new products 🥰💜
Love watching all YN videos! You are always so shaking, I would never be able to do anywhere near as good as you if I was that shaky. You still kill it!
I SO WISH i could order all the way from Spain, everytime i watch your videos i want to order everything! I use this method A LOT to do quick nails for myself when i want to have a fresh mani, and i have to say i enjoy it a lot more than i thought i would when i first tried a few months ago. Thanks so much for sharing this 🥰

Okay now I see what I did wrong. In twitch I said I did a hot mess trying to do this. I just seen how much gel you put on the nail. I was putting way too much so it was all over thnks finally I been waiting for this to upload since the Habib twitch nail
Can you also do a video using the full cover tips and gel when keeping the tips on throughout the wearing time? I like this version, have not tried it but just curious about the other way to use the full coverage tips. Thanks
I still love this idea and set! Do you guys think you can show us a way of doing it for a deminsional nail with the pop of method of its possible? Or is it just good to do it in a solid colors!?
Thank you for your videos. Your explanations are so clear. I suppose I do put too much pressure when applying the tip. Which bit would you advise for " under the nail" ?
If you aren't applying too much pressure then under the nail should be fine. You can always turn the nail over and brush the gel where you want it or use our under the nail bit to clean up after curing it.
We haven't tested this service yet, but we would recommend using the clear tips instead. Since the nude & pink tips are pre-etched, this won't give the perfect smooth finish and the gel may adhere too well and not pop off. Also, if you were to use an opaque gel, it may not fully cure all the way through.
If you are wanting to apply acrylic over a hard gel enhancement, we do not recommend this. Hard gel is non porous and acrylic has a harder time adhering to the non porous surface. If you are applying the acrylic over the plastic tip that was applied to the nail with a soft gel product, the acrylic will adhere best if the shiny surface of the tip is removed and Protein Bond is applied.
I know this is an older video but when you said to go against the rotation to avoid “around the world” NOW I totally get it. I’m sure it will still happen but way way less
Cool! Do these last as long as sculpted nails? Do you have trouble with bubbles at all underneath? This is going to be awesome for doing my own nails!! Thank you Tracey!! 🥰
One more question...I bought your trial gel kit. I have some full cover tips of yours already. Can I do this process with the clear builder and encapsulate mylar into it while still using the full cover tip to help get the shape like she did in the video?
So I don’t know if this will get answered. But it’s worth a shot. I’m in a bit of a bind so I was only able to afford the acrylic system from YN which I absolutely LOVE! And I plan on getting every one of YN’s products as fast as possible. But that being said I don’t have YN’s builder gel/ hard gel. I’m just starting out so i have a ton to learn. Anyways can you use builder gel for this? I don’t think I have the hard builder gel. I won’t say the brand that I currently have. (I bought it before I found YN’s🤦🏻♀️) it’s also in a bottle, almost like a gel polish bottle but it’s super thick and moves around like builder gel. I think that’s what it says it is. I bought it to encapsulate before I started acrylic. (Before I did heavy research) Anyways my question is, can I use that to do this method? Like I said I do plan on getting the same thing she used but until I’m able to I would definitely like to try it out now so I don’t waste my favorite brand “YN’s” on my first couple test runs. Sorry this is so long! But I also want to say how much I love this brand, and all of you guys for helping us all out and having amazing products! It would be a dream to be at least half as good as any of you one day! Again thank you!!!
Unfortunately, we can't speak on other brands as we don't test them. You could definitely give it a try and see if it works, but we have only tested this with our hard gel products and even then it's our hard gels that have a thicker consistency so they don't run.
Thanks Tracy for the lesson! I was able to build a set but the only problem is I feel there's not enough Apex built in :( to support the length and they look flat. Any suggestions?
Can I use clear base& clear builder (or flex )? and then add glitter or mylar into the gel in the full coverage tip before placing on the natural nail?
Yes, just make sure you remove the shine from the surface of the tip & any colors you use must have enough transparency for the gel to cure all the way through.
The R/L and F/W query re efile use on one’s non-dominant hand has been bugging me for a bit (see what I did there? 😜) so thanks much for the common sense explanation!
I am wondering, if you wanted to use those nail covers as nail covers, would they just pop off on their own? I ask because the way you popped it off with the clippers was effortless.
If you are using our full cover tips by themselves on the natural nails, you can adhere them with the glue they come with or with our ManiQ in the tub. Both last for weeks.
If you want to keep them on you can etch the inside of the full cover tip with your arbor band first to make the gel adhere. This is a method that is becoming more popular, as you can find full cover tips made of hard gel with a high enough apex to create strength. Lmk if you want more info, I can direct you to some links!
Does the flash and burn have any acrylic in it? I am allergic to acrylic and I get a horrible allergic reaction to acrylic but I have been using Kiara Sky gelly tips with builder gel and gel polish with no reaction. I am going online to by the products on this video today but wanted to ask this question first. Also can you build with the the Mani Q soft gel or is it only for thin overlays?
Yes, Flash and Burn is on of out Slickpour colors (dip powder). Dip powder is a more finely milled acrylic powder. You could always try using a glitter instead of a slickpour powder.
You can use the Fiber Gel as a base to attach full coverage tips, just make sure to remove the shine from the well of the tip so it won't pop off. You can also use a small pearl of acrylic to attach the full coverage tips.
You can use our under the nail bit to remove some of the bulk/make more of your c-curve look. www.youngnails.com/products/under-the-nail-cleaner-carbide-3-32
You would have to add all of your “dimension” layers as one before you cure it onto the nail. If you do layers & cure after each layer, & then try to apply the last layer & apply to the nail, the nail can get too thick & not the proper structure.
Yes, they are strong and will last as long as if you built the extension straight onto your nails with normal forms. You can also fill them once you need to.
I know you have season new nail files before using then so you don't cut yourself on the edges, but do you have to do the same for the tip of the arbor band?
Before you cure the nail, you can use a brush underneath and smooth out the surface, but if you have challenges doing that, you can sculpt out the free edge on a form and then overlay with the pop off technique. Here's a video to show you how. ua-cam.com/video/r2NBjm_meB4/v-deo.html
You can or you can also use it for a quick glitter press like this since the hard gel acts as a base. If on the natural nails I would still use the conversion base.
Gel doesn't stick to a shiny surface so once it's cured, it pops off. Acrylic is different and will stick to the shiny surface, so the tip will not release if you try building extension this way. You can, however, use acrylic to apply a full coverage tip to the nail rather than using glue.
@@youngnailsinc when doing it this way with acrylic it makes the surface under the full nail tip super smooth and shiny, just like gel making it pop off.
When I place my gel brush down and do something else (eg use a different brush for white for French etc) and then come back to that brush, the gel that's in it is cured just from the desk light. I noticed that you put your brush down to then use the tube, and have no problems with cured gel in the brush just from the desk light. It's driving me nuts - I have to put the brush away in a cupboard for it not to cure (I wipe most of the gel out of the brush before I place it down on my desk - but still it seems to cure in there). Any tips? PS I absolutely love watching you. x
Unfortunately if your desk lamp is putting out a specific UV/LED spectrum light, it can cure the brush. You may have to get a different light, but also make sure you aren't sitting anywhere that sunlight could be hitting your brush. This can cure the gel as well.
I sometimes find my stilettos turn out different, what l find helps is when using forms always make sure l pinch the nail form at the point l want my tip,even cutting off the extra bit so it doesn't turn into a narrow coffin shape. Using stiletto tips can help but some point upwards when l prefer straight sides.
No, they are not super thick. Once you pop the tip off, you can use your e-file to thin them out more if you would like or you can apply the dip over straight after you take it off. If you go the second route, it's possible that it will bulk it up so just make sure you aren't apply the dip too thick.
I'm a tad scared that you guys are reading my mind! I was just looking last night on your page to see if you guys had posted a video using this technique.
To leave space for the gel. If you were just gluing the tip on, the glue is very thin and the “correct” size will adhere with no gaps. When using gel to adhere it, you need the larger size so you can use enough gel to build the thickness of the nail. If you use the smaller size, you will end up with a gap on the sides or if you press the nail on, you won't have enough thickness of the product.
I am not here to hear you complaining and than complaining about your co worker for all people to hear, so unprofessional. When you notice yoyr day is off than use the time to heal. Now you are working towards a burnout and nobody wants that. all the best my dear i light a candle for you and hope you be fine by now.

Can you use Acrylic over Gel tips I tried it on a dummy hand looks OK But will it last. Gel tip with Acryluc overlay. Live your tutorial so much.
If you are wanting to apply acrylic over a hard gel enhancement, we do not recommend this. Hard gel is non porous and acrylic has a harder time adhering to the non porous surface.

You can always add more hard gel if you feel you need more of an apex.

Yes, just make sure you remove the shine from the surface of the tip & any colors you use must have enough transparency for the gel to cure all the way through.
Can you add more of the gel back by the cuticle area if needed? After the tip comes off? TIA!
You definitely can. I would just rough the surface up almost like prepping again since the surface after popping the tip off is smooth.

You can use the Fiber Gel as a base to attach full coverage tips, just make sure to remove the shine from the well of the tip so it won't pop off. You can also use a small pearl of acrylic to attach the full coverage tips.
💜💜💜 your hoodie 😍
Live this video. How long does these method stay?

You can wear them just as long as a sculpted set. I've had mine on for about a month now and just fill them with hard gel when they grow out.
Can you do this with Maniq?
No can not as maniQ is a soft gel and you do not sculpt with it.

Concealer Peach is one of our hard gels.
Very pretty 😍 did you top coat those or leave them raw? If you didn't top coat, do they have a grainy texture or are they smooth? Thanks

So pretty!
How are you dealing with the bulk/overflow under your nails?
You can use our under the nail bit to remove some of the bulk/make more of your c-curve look.
www.youngnails.com/products/under-the-nail-cleaner-carbide-3-32
I’ve heard of people using forms like normal, then setting down the gel filled tip on the nail and the form prevents the gel from seeping underneath.
@@jmrgunners I use forms too and the results are very clean.
Can this method work with doing a dimensional nail as well?
You would have to add all of your “dimension” layers as one before you cure it onto the nail. If you do layers & cure after each layer, & then try to apply the last layer & apply to the nail, the nail can get too thick & not the proper structure.
@@youngnailsinc I'll just stick with what Tracy showed then lol thank you
I have applied builder gel with dual forms,but have not used gel tip.thanks for being real.are these strong how long will this mani ladt
Yes, they are strong and will last as long as if you built the extension straight onto your nails with normal forms. You can also fill them once you need to.
I know you have season new nail files before using then so you don't cut yourself on the edges, but do you have to do the same for the tip of the arbor band?
Yes, I would recommend dulling the edges of the sanding band on a file.
How do you not get a ledge underneath your nail? I’ve tried this way a couple times and it always leaves a ledge underneath.
Before you cure the nail, you can use a brush underneath and smooth out the surface, but if you have challenges doing that, you can sculpt out the free edge on a form and then overlay with the pop off technique. Here's a video to show you how. ua-cam.com/video/r2NBjm_meB4/v-deo.html
When you apply the slick pour do you go back in with a top coat over that?
Not with this technique. If you top coat you lose the sugaring effect.
Hi, was that nail dipping glitter powder that you used?
It's our slickpour powder called Flash & Burn.
@@youngnailsinc oh okay thank you
What do you do if someone touches smtn while the bond is on?
Do you alcohol wipe it and the lint off and reapply? Ty
You would use Swipe to cleanse the nail and re-apply Protein Bond.
What can I use if I don’t have the gel in the pot for the base coat?
Never mind, I have base!!
U guys how can I find YN on TWITCH?
Here you go: www.twitch.tv/youngnailsinc
did I hear that right? u can use mani q top to adhere full cover tips? if so explain process please trace
You can use out ManiQ in the black tub to adhere our full cover tips.
@@youngnailsinc I assume you need to base the nail first with maniQ base then adhere tip with maniQ top? I’ll search for a video
I’ve tried this method with ManiQ but the tip would not pop off
I'm a little bit confused, I thought we were supposed to use the conversion base and top for doing the slick pour 🤔?
You can or you can also use it for a quick glitter press like this since the hard gel acts as a base. If on the natural nails I would still use the conversion base.
Can I use the same quick tip you used with gel and pop the tip off but using acrylic?
Yes you can use anything. I have always done it with acrylic.
Gel doesn't stick to a shiny surface so once it's cured, it pops off. Acrylic is different and will stick to the shiny surface, so the tip will not release if you try building extension this way. You can, however, use acrylic to apply a full coverage tip to the nail rather than using glue.

I noticed that you put your brush down to then use the tube, and have no problems with cured gel in the brush just from the desk light. It's driving me nuts - I have to put the brush away in a cupboard for it not to cure (I wipe most of the gel out of the brush before I place it down on my desk - but still it seems to cure in there). Any tips? PS I absolutely love watching you. x
Unfortunately if your desk lamp is putting out a specific UV/LED spectrum light, it can cure the brush. You may have to get a different light, but also make sure you aren't sitting anywhere that sunlight could be hitting your brush. This can cure the gel as well.
@@youngnailsinc Thanks guys!
It may be silly question, but the tip that you use is just a regular full tip? Or it is a special one for acrygel?
It's a full cover tip, nothing special about it. Also, we are using our Synergy gel, which is a true hard gel and not acrygel.
Oh awesome! Thank you very much for the response. I will definitely try this

Can you do a video on how to file nails to stiletto shape? I find this the hardest shape to file and look right.

I sometimes find my stilettos turn out different, what l find helps is when using forms always make sure l pinch the nail form at the point l want my tip,even cutting off the extra bit so it doesn't turn into a narrow coffin shape. Using stiletto tips can help but some point upwards when l prefer straight sides.
Are they super thick using this method? I'm looking to do dip powder over them
No, they are not super thick. Once you pop the tip off, you can use your e-file to thin them out more if you would like or you can apply the dip over straight after you take it off.
If you go the second route, it's possible that it will bulk it up so just make sure you aren't apply the dip too thick.
@@youngnailsinc thank you!!
So... is this the most relatable intro ever?
❤️
Can y’all make some 00 nails
Thank you for the feedback, we will let the team know.
Ive literally only just realised normal full coverage tips are the exact same as dual forms just without trying to shape the nail within the form
I'm a tad scared that you guys are reading my mind! I was just looking last night on your page to see if you guys had posted a video using this technique.
Hard working hands I’d really like that thank you because my hands just looked like yours
like you say I am not even a girly girly girl 😊

Maybe put it in the fridge before using. Silcare get is nice and thick.
👌👌👌👍
So why do you use a slightly bigger tip?
To leave space for the gel. If you were just gluing the tip on, the glue is very thin and the “correct” size will adhere with no gaps. When using gel to adhere it, you need the larger size so you can use enough gel to build the thickness of the nail. If you use the smaller size, you will end up with a gap on the sides or if you press the nail on, you won't have enough thickness of the product.
I know she said she's tired but something seems off. Her voice seems shakey as well. Hope she's okay
If this was so quick why was this edited so we couldn’t see the whole process start to finish ?
Have a great nail day Ladies 😬
I’m sorry but all these steps don’t make it faster in my opinion
I’ll stick too regular sets
I am not here to hear you complaining and than complaining about your co worker for all people to hear, so unprofessional. When you notice yoyr day is off than use the time to heal. Now you are working towards a burnout and nobody wants that. all the best my dear i light a candle for you and hope you be fine by now.
Thank you for the feedback and your concern. We are a very fun loving family here and all jokes about each other are not said seriously. 😊
