      Excuse me......
      You NEVER mentioned dehydrator and/or acid free primer, before base coat! 😢😮
      Is it NEEDED

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  Рік тому +3

      ​@@chimerewalker Absolutely, you can use the products you mentioned prior to applying the base coat. However, if you don't already have them, there's no need to go out of your way to buy them. Just ensure that your nails are clean and free from any oil, dirt, or moisture with alcohol before applying the base coat.

    This is a REAL TUTORIAL for beginners! Very thorough and you explained the actual method. It was common sense to wait for the slip to evaporate before sticking that glob of gel on to the nail but I didn’t realize it until you’ve mentioned it in your video. I would’ve been scratching my head why everything’s wasn’t sticking. I just ordered a kit and I wanted to see if I can even do it. I’ve watched so many tutorials but this one is the most informative one I’ve seen so far! Thank you!

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  2 роки тому +9

      Yes definitely wait until the slip solution evaporates, or else you will have little bubbles in the gel too. Thank you so much for your order! We cannot wait to see your creations :)

      Avoid acrylic if u can. I used it for years. It's hard to work with and even harder on your nails! Gel is easier on your nails, lasts just as long and looks great. It also doesn't smell like rotten asshole, unlike acrylics lol.

Lots of failures and video watching, but it's worth the struggle. Gel is way easier to work with. Keep at it and they'll look professional! Practice makes perfect right? You've got this!!! Fk the haters, let em hate.

  • @Rh1n0saurus
    @Rh1n0saurus 4 місяці тому +1

    Hi, great tutorial! I have a question: If the dual form is really curved on the underside and it leaves a gap between the nail and the gel after curing, am I doing it wrong or is it the dual form?

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  2 місяці тому

      It could be a few things! If the dual form is too curved or not the right size for your nail, it may not sit flush, causing gaps. Make sure you're using the right size and shape for your nails. Also, if you're not applying enough pressure when placing the dual form, it can lift, so try pressing down evenly but gently. Lastly, check the amount of gel you're using-too much can cause the form to shift, leading to air pockets. Try adjusting these and see if it helps! 😊
      That’s why we offer both flat and curved dual forms-flat ones are great for those with a flatter nail. You can check it out here: glowtips.co.uk/products/flat-style-dual-nail-forms?srsltid=AfmBOorEhEAvw936irhFFHRLKPF4eRrP6AmMg1FGtQN1FoofS6lcPjx6

    Thank you for this very informative video!! When you mean cure it for both sides, do you mean flipping the nail so the under part gets cured for 60 sec too?!

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  6 місяців тому

      Yes, you can cure both sides by flipping the nail. We usually recommend this to beginners, as they might apply too much product and may not be sure how to check if it's fully cured. If you're just starting your polygel journey, curing both sides ensures thorough curing. Once you gain some experience and know how much polygel to apply to each nail and the appropriate curing time, you can cure just the front side since you'll have a better sense of the correct product amount. Hope this clarifies your question :)

    I’m struggling when using the nail slip solution on the polygel because I see some bubbles. Why is it happen? Do you have any solutions?

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  11 днів тому

      To avoid bubbles, make sure the polygel is applied evenly on the dual form and avoid overworking it, as this can trap air. Gently press the dual form onto your nail without shifting it. Always check for bubbles before curing, and if you see any, remove the dual form, smooth the polygel, and reapply. please watch our video for more detailed explaination : ua-cam.com/video/OrlBthKXHl8/v-deo.htmlsi=iTQgAqP85y7L1i3G&t=529 . hope this helps :)

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  2 роки тому +3

      Hi Wonderland Smith, if you do your nail prep properly and ensure that the Poly Nail Gel is adhering to your nails properly, they can last a really long time. But if you use your hands in the water a lot and when there is a slight lift on your Poly Nail Gel nails, it's not going to last and can trap moisture between your Poly Nail Gel and natural nails which can cause green nails.
      So please make sure you do your nail prep properly before applying the Poly Nail Gel, so that you can have beautiful-looking nails for as long as possible!
      and Yes, please continue to wear cleaning gloves whenever you can, it really does help to make your nails last longer! :)

    • @glowtipsofficial

      You can definitely apply the second coat of polygel directly without a base coat. Even after curing, the polygel remains slightly sticky, so it should work well. I hope this clears up your question! :)

    Hi the base coat i use doesn't keep the nails for too long can you add nail glue

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  7 місяців тому

      Hi, it's not recommended to use nail glue instead of a base coat before applying polygel. Nail glue is designed for adhering nail tips and isn't formulated to bond with polygel effectively. A proper base coat ensures better adhesion, prevents lifting, and protects your natural nails. Using the correct base coat will give you the best results and longevity for your polygel nails. If your current base coat is not good enough, try the same brand polygel base coat. This is because products from the same brand are formulated to work well together. Hope this helps

    I’ve bought the polygel kit from glow tips and I’m waiting for it to arrive, the one thing I’m worried about is the nail sizing! The video says that it needs to be bigger than the nail but then it also warns not to get polygel on the skin, but if I choose a dual form bigger than my nail then the polygel will cure to my skin - do you have any tips, please?

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  Рік тому +1

      Hello, thank you for choosing Glowtips and showing your support! We appreciate your order, and we hope it arrives promptly.
      When it comes to selecting the right size for dual forms, we suggest opting for a slightly larger size, especially if you find yourself between sizes. The key factor to consider is that the dual form should adequately cover the side walls of your nails. For a visual reference, please check the video starting from the 3:51 timestamp.
      During the application of polygel onto the dual form, it's important to apply gentle pressure. Pressing too firmly could result in the gel overflowing onto your skin, which is why we discourage using a small dual form that doesn't fully cover your nail. By choosing a size that provides proper coverage, you can achieve the desired results without the risk of excessive gel spilling onto your skin.
      We hope this explanation clarifies any concerns you had about selecting the right size. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don't hesitate to ask. We're here to help.

If you're fairly experienced, you might be able to do both hands in around an hour. Just remember, the more you practice, the quicker and easier it becomes!

      @@KiratAujla820 Hello and thanks for subscribing! 😊 It's a fantastic question. The thickness of the polygel really depends on your goal. Are you aiming for nail extensions or just an overlay on natural nails? 🤔 For extensions, you'll use more polygel. Check this video ua-cam.com/video/LcTzTwpIL_M/v-deo.htmlsi=DcI2oij8r4AGc87Z&t=246 to see our method for extensions. For overlays, take a peek at this other video ua-cam.com/video/g4FvxL7Zd9Y/v-deo.htmlsi=6_jxwIIdtu9RBcSy&t=279 .
      Practice makes perfect, and soon you'll nail the right amount for each nail. If you apply too much, just remove the excess, and if it's too little, add another layer.

      @glowtipsofficial  2 місяці тому +1

      First of all, avoid pressing the poly gel-filled dual form too hard onto your nail, as this can cause the gel to overflow and create an uneven surface. Gently press it down and apply the dual form. If you find the poly gel too thin after curing, don’t worry-you can always add another layer to build up the thickness. It may take a few tries to find the perfect thickness for your nails, but you'll get there :)

    • @glowtipsofficial
      @glowtipsofficial  Рік тому +1

      Hello, thank you for watching. To ensure the best results for your polygel nails, it's crucial to check if they are fully cured. The curing process can vary depending on the type of lamp you're using and the specific polygel you've chosen, whether it's fully opaque or clear.
      To test if your nails are properly cured, gently tap the underside of the nail. If it feels soft to the touch, this indicates that the polygel is not fully cured. In such cases, please place your nails back under the nail lamp by flipping your hand (palm face top towards the bulbs) for an additional 60-90 minutes to complete the curing process.
      I hope this information is clear. Let us know if you have further questions, we are happy to answer here :)

    What kind of alcohol do I need to wipe off the sticky layer from the polygel? I bought some polygel myself and it has a tacky surface even after I cured it 3 times, I also use rubbing alcohol instead of slip solution as I do not have any, what should I use to wipe off the tacky layer? 🤗

      Hi, you could use your slip solution to wipe it off too. Slip solution has alcohol content in it, so after you cure your polygel then dap your slip solution with a lint free cotton to gently wipe off the tacky layer. Hope this helps :)

      Thank you so much, glad that you found this helpful. You can always leave it as it is or apply your favourite gel polish colour on top of it. :)

    Do you need clips for the polygel

      Hi Petro Du Plooy, it's entirely up to you. You can do it without the clip, or with it. As you can see our video, we do not use the clip and it works perfectly fine.
