Glad you're back! You are the most articulate nail tech with correct information I've ever found online.
Thank you, this video is the best . I finally understood the difference. ❤❤❤
Excellent!
Cuticle is my weakness, clients think you cant do nail just because you don't cut cuticle properly. They kept saying there is dry skin, pointing to the living tissue. I was scared to cut to close to that area. The way you have explained in such detailed visual way is awesome. The nail schools don't go into great details about cuticle cutting. i will also try holding the nippers they way you explained it. Much appreciated . awesome nail teacher. I am your student for life
I couldn't think of a better comeback video! 😍
I’ve searched high and low for something as detailed as this for the cuticles and I’m excited to try with this method
Thank you for this breakdown!!! Many times I don’t see too much cuticle and it was starting to make me try to trim the already decently cut
So great to see a new video from you! 😀.
Don't understand why some nail techs still refer to the epinicium as cuticle 🤷♀️.
I have really bad cuticles and extra thin nails. So I try to do my best
SOOO happy you're back! I've missed your videos and new content. I've learned more from you than from my nail tech program!
What a great introduction!!! LOVE IT.. Great informative video! you are always THE BEST educator ♥
Brilliant video. So many questions I had finally answered. Thank You, I always learn so much from you.🥰
You're Back!!! Great video!!!
OMGosh!! I’ve so been missing your videos!!
Much appreciated, as usual. I learned something I didn't know which is EXACTLY where does the dead cuticle start. Thank you . 😮

I'm an immunobiochemist. your scientific knowledge and your use of biology lexicon and terms is so refreshing.
if 2020 taught us anything it's that Americans are woefully undereducated in the life sciences. like incredibly and laughably uneducated.
i know a person who got into Yale this fall and they didn't know the difference between bacteria, virus, fungi and unicellular organisms.
just bringing up autoclave was awesome. your knowledge of volatile chemicals and molecular composition is so good. you gave me the keywords I needed to tailor my nail supplies to my expertise in organic and inorganic chemistry.
knowing that the higher the purity of EtOH the faster it evaporates, leading to poor sanitization is such a nuanced organic chemistry tidbit.
basically, you're a kindred spirit 🌟
detailed and helpful as always thank you Liz 🫶
Awesome!! The video was sooo helpful. You were missed.
I just love the metal Orangewood stick you sell. It's perfect for home use on myself!
i got my nails donde in a salon a few weeks ago (semipermanent) and when i removed the polish, i decided to do myself a manicure... yeah ended up cutting the cuticule very badly (literally the opposite of what you said in the video, lol). the cuts are still healing and it did bleed, im just greatful i didnt catch an infection. Ended up cutting my 4-month nail growth because they were so week and im just starting all over again ig... i'll have this video in mind the next time im cutting my cuticles, ty:)
Great video Liz, I missed you❤️
Thank you so much for great tips, always. Love your work Liz!
Nice to see you back ! Hope all is well !
Great video!!! Question: when removing the “cuticle” what would you suggest for those that do not wear gel? Buffing? Video was very informative and excellent tips provided
Yes buffing or even same 180 grit is great for natural nails. Just use light pressure. Buffers usually have same grit as files but are just spongie.
Wow! Thank you! Your video was recommended to me by a nail tech. I will definitely be watching more of your videos!
Welcome back! In your older video on how to make nail cleanser you indicated that 99% alcohol was great, but expensive. Since watching that video years ago I've always used a ratio of 1 part pure acetone to 3 parts 99% IPA. You indicated in this new video that we shouldn't use 99% IPA because it evaporates too quickly and therefore can't kill germs. With all of this information in mind, should I switch my mixture to use 91% IPA?
99 is great but if you live in a very dry place like me now in Arizona or you find it evaporating too quickly just add a touch of water to your mix.
I have missed you timely, informative videos. Please continue to inform us as the basic are very important
I agree with everyone on here! This was so good and useful. Thank you 🙏🏾
I love the jazzy intro!
Omg don't leave for so long. Welcome back Home lol
🥰😘
So informative!
I always wanted to knownwhay exactly the cuticle was and this helped me understand.
Thank you for the video! I've all ways been confused about whither or not to trim that and if it was cuticle or not.
Thank you for the video 🥳🥰🥰 You have a beautiful thumb nail 😂
Nice to see that you’re back!!!
Great video
Thank you do much great informatiom learning so much from how u explain stuff
Really wonderful and thorough guide Ty!
Thank you so much for this video and the close ups. I've always been scared to trim anything because I couldn't understand where and when to trim. Sometimes when I push back my eponychium to clean off the cuticle, it ends up falling back onto the nail. I have to push it back multiple times before applying my acrylic, or I end up with like triangle shaped nails. Why do you suppose it's doing this? Too dry perhaps?
Thank you so much for this video! Super informative 🤓
Nice to see you again ! Thank you for the information ❤️
Thank you for the explanation!
omg😊 u posted
Great video! Thanks!
Excellent video, thank you
please post a gel extension full time, thanks!
Thank you so much for a great video! I found you just recently while surcharging for builder gel question. Which was another great video. Have you done any updates on builder gels? Again thank you for you time and important information.
Would love to see your version of glazed nails!
Do some people not get cuticle? I never have that papery stuff on my nail.
omg!!!! i'm so happy to see you! I've been wondering where in the heck is liz but i honestly felt you totally made this video for me! i've been trying all night to use my nippers the way you show! i've been really wanting to see a video up close and personal with cuticles and you did it! i can totally see it and makes so much more sense! any way you would think about doing video this up close with ball bit for e file. clipping with nippers makes sense but exactly where would the ball bit fit in?
Ball bit can be used after nippers to help buff and perfect the skin or it can be used instead of nippers for drier skin. My skin is too soft and thin for both and when you have a flap sometimes the ball bit tears the skin instead of cleanly removing it. You sort of have to assess what works best on the particular situation.
@@TheNailHub i think i'm the exact same way. but i was totally holding the nippers wrong and everything and always end up with that open skin you talked about. so many aha moments with your education! always the best. but i had been trying to use the ball bits and because i'm training myself by watching videos i always seem to do way more damage than good with a ball bit. i am gonna stuck with nippers from now on. hope to see you again soon. i've really missed watching your videos. ❤️❤️❤️
So cuticle is the dead skin left behind from the eponychium /proximal nail fold, once it been pushed back or naturally left behind once the nail grows forward.
Cuticle is the left over product from the proximal fold.
Correct.?
Correct. It’s residue basically.
I use bare hands to peel them 😊
Great music!!!
How I should prepare my nails, if I have at the end of my finger on the sides callus?
It annoys me that it is like what I have on the feet...
Missyou🥰
Very cute- icle
Can I just skip the trim altogether if my living skin flap isn’t as long as you’ve shown here?
Yes absolutely. Just pushing back is totally fine.
This is why I cringe when I watch a Russian efile manicures. Where they push and lift eponychium up then file deep under the fold and cut every piece of the flap off. Eesh. Filing like that causes micro abrasions and doing this each manicure causes the tissue to callus over time. The Russian manicure is too invasive. They should be more gentle like you show.
I have used a nail drill 3 times now on myself. Yesterday i was seeing that both nail plates of the middle finger has white lines a little above the epynichium (sorry its mispelled). Could this be that I created trauma to the nail because i have not used the efile properly? What could happen to the nail plate now?
White lines on your nail plate can be from a lot of things. Trauma, nutrition changes, dehydration, delamination, or medications. You shouldn’t see any lines on your nails after e-filing so if you are then check your angle at which you are holding the bit to the nail and also check your pressure. You could be digging in by accident. Remember a high speed and a super light touch is the best for efiling and keep the bit parallel to the spot you are filing.
@@TheNailHub thank you so much for replying. I do think its the angle i was placing the efile. Can I ask you something else on a separate matter. I have bought colour gels that contain the following ingredients: Polyurethane acrylate oligamer, HEMA ( 2- Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate), Hydroxycyclohexyl Phenyl Ketone, Bis-Trimethybenzoy Phenyphosphine Oxide, Pigment
Now after watching your tutorials and I am aware of the chemistry and what you should be cautious about, I am afraid that i made a mistake investing in these colours. At the moment I am only practicing on myself not on people but I went a bit overboard with the selection i bought and if they are harmful O spent money for nothing.
What music was used during the intro?
I have a question… every time I trim my cuticles and skin around the nail, about a week later it frays in large pieces and it gets raw. I have to trim them and sometimes end up pulling them off which isn’t a good idea… how do I stop this? I have a lot of cuticle build up. I have also tried cuticle oil after I cut them and it doesn’t really seem to help. Someone please help me!!!
I would suggest to stop trimming. If your body is reacting that way to me it says your body doesn’t like the skin being trimmed away and it’s over reacting. Try going a full month or two without any cutting and just keep them moisturized. Also cuticle oil tends to rub off or get washed off easily. Try a thicker emollient like aquaphor and smoosh it into the skin at night before bed. It could be you are overtrimming by accident or the tools you are using are tearing the skin. Just let your skin be for a while and see how it changes.
@@TheNailHub thank you so very much for your quick response, I will definitely try that. ❤️
@@TheNailHub one more question.. so say I don’t trim the skin (I have a lot). I do gel manicures at home, what would be the best thing to do? I’ll have a lot of skin at the cuticle base.. or do you think that may die down a bit?
Just gently keep it pushed back and well moisturized. You may find your skin responds by returning to a more natural state when it’s left alone for a while. Whenever I see cuticle skin getting thicker it signals it’s not happy so try letting it be and nurture it without and cutting. It should soften and lessen over time.
