I swear I wish I'd known all this back in college a gazillion years ago. (I am 70.) Learning these things now has given me so much joy. I've been able to grow my nails out longer and keep them well manicured longer. I'm really having fun with this, and it's thanks to folks like you on UA-cam for this education.
I apply another coat of topcoat every 2-3 days and my manicure lasts for 1-2 weeks
+lukasiak tropical that's a great tip!
lukasiak tropical Great tip! Thanks.
Min es lasts 3 days
I do that too! It really does help to keep my nails looking great longer.
When I do that, my nail polish peels off my nails as if I used a peel off base coat. I don’t understand why though. 😭
base coat has never worked for me. Whenever I use it, it peels even more.
Asher Elric have you tried a rubberized base?
no. I don't think so.
Thanks. :) I'll have to look for it.
Me too!
Total opposite for me sorry dont know how to spell the first two words lol
you can also use rubbing alcohol or acetone to dehydrate the nail.
+Ashleigh Latham yes that's a great point Ashleigh!
Ashleigh Latham you shouldn't use acetone to dehydrate your nail plate. That will cause an over production of oil and can cause premature lifting or chipping. 91% alcohol is safe for your nail plate when used sparingly. Or wash your hand with soap and water and let dry before polishing.
Ashleigh Latham I use rubbing alcohol too. It's inexpensive, I've always got it around, and the alcohol prep wipes they sell in the pharmacy section of the store are awesome because I can toss a couple in my nail kit and do my nails on the go!
Becky Schmidt
Tabitha Lynn been using it for a couple years now and my nail polish stays on perfect for the couple days I keep it on until I change it. I find if i use a good base and top coat It stays on great! 😊
Very helpful. I am 62 and only do my nails at Christmas. The wrong way. But now that I have a better understanding how to do it, I may do it more often. Thanks for sharing.
+Geraldine Parsons I'm glad you enjoyed the video Geraldine! I hope these tips can help :) Nail painting is so much fun to do, I think you should definitely do it more often to express yourself!
Ayeee hows the nails going?
I'm nearly 62. I tweaked my diet a cpl yrs ago. (Added a greens powder drink) + found after 6-8 months among other benefits, my nails were stronger. I discovered Kelli's delightful channel + have become a nail painter! It's fun. 👋💙🙏
Great video!!! I'm a nail tech in NJ and I will always tell my clients to apply another top coat the next day after the manicure. It also helps the polish to last. ☺️
+Vicki Combs that's actually a great idea Vicki, and I'm sure it keeps the color from getting dull as well! PS I'm originally from NJ!
Oh how cool fellow Jersey neighbor...yes,the polish last a few days longer especially if the prep work is done properly.
When I get manicures, I apply an extra top coat for the next 3 days..my mani lasts soooo long! I'm a crazy hand washer, so my nail polish will start fading quickly, unless I use that trick.
+Diana Leon that's actually an awesome trick! And I bet it's perfect for once the polish starts to look dull too.
Diana Leon d0
@Kelli Marissa I use OPI's Chip Skip and it works just fine...I know I shouldn't put Lotion on before I pant my nails, but after I use the Chip Skip it doesn't seem to chip a lot
I was worried because I like to wash my hands a lot so I’ll try that 👍🏻
Not me. The top and base I use, the more it peels. Doesn't matter how long I let it dry between coats Doesn't help either
Cap the tips!! Cap the free edge of your nail with base coat, do the same with every coat of Polish, and don't forget to do it with top coat as well!! It definitely helps to keep yur manicure on longer!
+Amanda Snowden that's a great point, Amanda. I usually get lazy and don't do it with my base or nail polish color, haha, but it definitely helps with longevity!
I don't spend much on my nail products because I really can't afford it. However, if I stick to the basics, I can make my $2 sinful colors polishes last for a month. My nails always grow out before chipping. Not sure what I'm doing right..
I use 2 coats of my Revlon strong adhesive base coat, 2-3 coats of color till I reach complete opacity, then I use a very thin Sally Hansen kwik dry top coat, followed by another coat of thick top coat (don't remember what brand. I have a few, but I always spend good money on my bases and tops). I always make sure to wrap the tips with every coat. I also refuse to use gel polish because I change the color too often and removal is awful for your nails.
My nails are super strong and I take good care of them.. always shaping them, touching up the edges so they don't snag, and moisturizing between manis.
I haven't been to a salon in years because I prefer doing my own. Last time I got a professional mani, it chipped in 2 days.
I can't see spending $20 at the salon when my nails look just ad nice when I do them. I use to do farm work and they wouldn't chip. Not even after being soaked in water. I'm seriously so rough on them and they always stay almost perfect somehow. :-)
I think a lot of it has to do with everything I've learned from watching tutorials like yours .
Great tips Kimmi!
Wearing gloves is such a good tip! It makes a BIG difference. I have super fancy gloves that are almost fun so that it'll give me more incentive to wear them. EVERY TIME I clean my kitchen without gloves my manicure gets totaled and my cuticles look like they're college students during finals. lol My mom is always saying that she just can't wear polish even though she loves it because her hands are in water too often, told her to wear gloves but she hasn't gotten any. For Christmas I'm buying her cuticle oil and nice gloves because I hate that she wants to wear polish but feels like she can't keep it nice looking for long enough.
wow that was a long rant over rubber gloves... anyways great video!
+Ciara Pershall lol! I feel the same way about using gloves. Where I grew up in NJ, it was common for everyone to have kitchen gloves - but I've noticed that here in Atlanta, people think it's so weird that I wear gloves to do the dishes! Haha, I wonder why that is. Anyway, it's a lifesaver for me too ;)
I have always worn gloves too, so it's a habit for me and I don't mind. It's much better for your skin as well!
Like I said above, I have been wearing nails religiously for years when I do anything cleaning wise in the house but I wash my hands everyday after I go to the bathroom so they still get wrecked.
What kind of gloves did you get? I hate the regular dish ones and I'm allergic to latex.
Sherry M I meant to say I wear gloves religiously, not nails, lol. The gloves I wear that I think are latex free are from the Mr. Clean brand. They are white and soft on the inside. You can Google them to see if they have any latex on them anywhere. Gloves are a lifesaver for my cuticles.
me: **keep the moisturizer for after I'm done** **dehydrate nails** **put on base coat** **put on top coat** **wrap the tip every time** **wait for them to dry** **go to sleep** **wake up**
my nails: chipped
me: what the fuck?!
+Paula Robles hey Paula, in that case, it might be the brand you're wearing - which brand of base coat and which polishes do you use?
I'm using Sally Hansen base coat and so laque polish. If I had to, I would blame it on the polish, it is at least 3 years old after all, but this happens a lot, I'm probably doing something else wrong xD
hey Kelli, is Chip Skip considered a Nail Dehydrator? Because. I use it before I put Base Coat on
Paula Robles same.used to do all of these and nothing helps mine from chipping.
Paula, the problem might be that your polish is thick, try thinning it out a bit with Nail Polish Thinner
Thanks for thinking of this series!
I've never had problems with peeling or chipping, and it's mostly because my nail plate is not greasy at all. I can wear a regular polish mani for almost 2 weeks with minimal tip wear (my current mani has been going for 12 days with only minor chips). This is wonderful during exam season, when I can't change my polish but don't like going naked
+Daniela Sarmiento oh wow you've got some great nail plates! I find that mine aren't really greasy either, I guess we just got lucky :P
Well put a rose 🌹 on your nose :-😂😂😂😂lol that's awesome man I wish
My crocodile nails never chipped 😊
A trick that I do because I absolutely Hate tip wear and I generally only do my nails once a week, is that I paint all my tips first. Especially, if my nails are shorter. Then just proceed as normal wrapping every layer.
I do this too! I found that swiping across at the end usually messed up the smoothness of the polish I'd already applied.
+Shea Pierson same here, or you end up with nail polish gunking up the space between your nail tip and the skin underneath. which drives me nuts :/
I do my nails about once a week as well and have never thought to cap them first! I'm going to give this a try next time:)
You can use mouthwash to dehydrate your nails. I do that every single time I paint my nails.
Ekta Gupta I did not know that. Thank u!
+Ekta Gupta haha I've never heard that before!
Kelli Marissa
It works for me every time. I am from India and we lack great beauty products. Try the mouthwash once.
Heather Laurenvil
It has worked every time for me. Try once.
Hey Kelli, I do wash my hands and put lotion on after removing my Polish, but, I also use Chip Skip to get rid of the oils and dirt from the nail beds prior to putting base coat on
Omg thank you I've been wasting so much time for months now. Paint my nails and redo it two days later because of constant peeling and chipping. I always use cuticle oil first and never ever use base coat. Thank you for the tips!!!
Great info Kelli! I really excited to see what your going to do with the series. I bet it's going to be great!
+Emily Sas0531 yay I'm glad to hear it! I can't wait to share the next video :)
Great advice! You are very pretty and I like your warm, friendly, helpful tone
+Teresa Tuttle oh my gosh Teresa you just made my week! Haha. Thank you so much ❤️
Y'all so phony lol jk
You introduced me to cuccio’s dehydrator and base coat. I absolutely love both! My manicures used to last two or three days before chipping now they last up to two weeks. This video is awesome!
Also, another amazing product I got because of your recommendation is zoya’s polish remover!
Thank you for all the amazing recommendations 💜
I’ve used base coat and top coat for the first time and my nail polish lasts for weeks now:) Thank you for the nice advices:)
Somehow my polish usually lasts at least 2 weeks and I do absolutely nothing to baby it. You said that nails can get stained. Mine start to yellow after a few months, which is common. I was trying whitening toothpaste, which I heard was good for this. A sudden brainstorm hit me. If whitening toothpaste helped, what would denture cleaner do? I got some and tried it. Magic happened. Just a few minutes in a cup of warm water with one tablet and my nails came out perfectly normal again. To date, I have never heard anyone else do this. I'd love you to try it and see if it works on others. And yes, I use one of the best brands of base coats religiously. They still turn yellow, possibly because of the long times between manis? 😊
+JayKB hey! I've never heard of that denture cleaner idea, but it sounds amazing! I would definitely try it but I find that my nails never get stained anymore, lol. Maybe I should go without base coat for a few weeks and then try! And hm, I wonder why they are turning yellow no matter what - maybe it's the amount of nutrients you're getting? I've heard eating garlic helps your nails a lot, (and I eat a ton of it haha)
Kelli Marissa I use Spirulina every day. Without that my nails are weak and constantly break. I would definitely not try going without a base coat to try the denture cleaner. Watching comments on other channels, yellow nails seem to be quite common. Consider yourself lucky! 😃
JayKB haha! I use the denture tablets also. I got the idea after I tried the bubble white from Sally's. I won't get quite as long from manicures as you. And I find when I use darker colors I get the yellow staining.
Well, you know that adage that great minds think alike. In this case, I guess it's that creative minds do, also. From Robin Moses's videos, she says that yellow colors stain the worst. With me it's reds. At least we both know something we should share. :-)
~ Great idea JayKB - my mom has this same yellowish thing happening to her so i will definitely pass this over to her :D ~
Thanks!! I have this problem and it drives me crazy, so I always end up getting my nails done at the salon. I'm going to try all of your tips. You are so pretty :3
+Nerea Flores oh my gosh Nerea you are so sweet! Thank you! I hope the tips help :)
Thank you Kelli. I am so thankful for these tips. As I want to start rocking my natural nails 💅 more. Your tips will allow me to do so. two thumbs 👍 👍 up.
Sooooo glad ur did & started this new series. Very important info to know when doing ur own nails but i was too embarrassed to ask such a basic question. Thanks again.
oh my god!!!! i have AT LAST found the video i needed!!! my nails ALWAYS chip within a day or so after applying nail polish, so thank you so much!!!😍🥰😘
Yay I'm so happy you found this one helpful!!
Find this really useful.
The other tip that I always do when painting my nails is make sure nails are dry before top coat . I find if I don't let it dry , my colour bleeds onto the brush ( might just be me ) .
So glad I found your channel x
+Michelle Till oh that's a really great tip Michelle! Thanks for sharing :)
And thank you so much for your kind words :)
Michelle Till Aren't you supposed to wait for it to dry?
It depends on which top coat are you gonna use. For instance, Seche Vite can be used on a not dry coat of polish, as it will penetrate all the layers to form a unique thicker coat...
If you use Sally Hansen Instadry instead, wait for the polish to be completely dry.
Nina Suarez yeah i know right
Nina Suarez yeah i know right
I have to try this. My nails start to chip after 4 days or so... thanks so much for the useful tips!!! Yay!!! 💅🏼
+Stephanie N K T yay I'm so happy to help!!
This was super helpful! I was doing exactly what you said not to do lol. I was using cuticle oil right before polishing my nails. Thanks so much, can't wait for the next video.
+Gina Rose I'm so glad you found it helpful, Gina! :)
what a useful series! Thank you soooo much! and btw your editing is AMAZING looooove it :D
+Jocelyn Hernandez yay I'm so glad you like the video!! And thank YOU so much :)
She’s always smiling and so chirpy, I love it!! New sub right here 🥰💕
Oh I'm so happy to have you here :)
Kelli Marissa I just love how energetic you are and I’m sooo glad I found your channel 🥰
I agree with you with the "2 in 1 base and top coat". It is like buying 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner💩
+Irene ML lmao! I was gonna say that but I didn't want to offend anyone 🙊
Kelli Marissa j
2-in-1 Shampoos are good to use as a single shampoo. Waay more hydrating than your standard and cleans as well as a clarifying without the wild stripping of your strands. Nothing can replace a great conditioner though ✨ I know HAIR , don't kniw squat about nails lol.
I guess in the case of nails I just want to know which is more important, base or top coat? If the base coat makes your color adhere better, wont it do the same to your last color coat plus shine at the end? So why can't it double?? Super curious, but I'll take video girl's word for it.
(Sorry I forgot ur name as i was typing, 1st time on your channel, GREAT video. Clear, quick, informative, well shot & the whole 9. Your EXPLANATIONS set you apart from the other videos on this topic☺✨ and you yourself are kind of adorable for no reason.) I normally don't comment on youtube and hate everyone for quirks or editing hiccups but you did great. Appreciate it. Will probably watch more from you.
Wow, Thank You For This Video. Now My Nail Polish Will Not Chip Anymore.
@@NellenelleForSure i know this is an old comment, but in a nutshell: Base coat is meant to be painted on top of, so it doesn't have a very nice finish and dries kind of tacky. top coat dries super hard and makes for a very nice glossy finish.
I didn't know about wrapping my nail. my manicures always start chipping from the top so i'll have to start doing that. thanks for the great tips! so many nail polish channels on youtube focus on acrylic nails which are not my style at all. Subscribed!
Thank you Kelli! So simple and easy tips for a great looking, longer lasting manicure. So happy with you video.👍
+dale underdue I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
I'm excited to try these tips!! My polish always peels off in one big sheet the day I do them.
+Whitley Smedley that seems to be a common problem! I hope these tips help :)
+Whitley Smedley that seems to be a common problem! I hope these tips help :)
Thank you so much for these tips!! I'm 30 and have been painting my nails since I was allowed to own polish lol. My biggest problem is after two days they always chip or peel. I do use base and top coat, but I don't dehydrate them!!
+Amber Brigham I think dehydrator will make a huge difference for you!!
Whoa! I love your tips Miss Kelli. Thank you for more details on a proper way or how to keep nail polish from peeling or chipping.
+Priscilla Switzer I'm so happy you enjoyed the video Priscilla!
yay!! I can't wait for the series!!!!😍❤
+Genesis Rashid yay!! Thanks for watching!! 😊
You're welcome!!😇💅
Thank you! I've never heard of dehydrator. I'm going to get some and try this!
+Anne Dowson oh man I love it!! Makes a huge difference!
That was so helpful Kelly thank u
I'm so excited for this series
+Rachel Jamas thank you so much Rachel :) :) you're gonna love it!
Hey Kelli, couldn't something like Chip Skip also work as a Nail Dehydrator or something? I have it...
Thank you so much Kelli, this was really really useful. In addition, your shirt fits you so well, I love it on you
+Laura Farkas thank you so much Laura! It's actually a dress, I just got it from Forever 21 and I love it!
Great video! I also like to reapply a top coat and specifically to wrap my tips as soon as I see the nail polish on my free edge start to chip! I usually have to do this about three days in
I love this pink color, I always have a hard time finding this color, I call it barbie pink. Can you please tell me what brand and color code it is pleeeeease?!
I'm still in love with your hair
+Vera Harthoorn hehe thanks so much Vera! I can't believe it's lasted so long!
I can't wait to see a video of how you file your nails!! Haha watching your videos has made me take care of my nails more and I really wanna learn how to file mine better!!
+LacieKate143 yay I'm excited to share the video!!
Kelli Marissa well I can't wait!!! Haha I'm like your biggest fan... Of your nails 😂 they are perfect.
I'm sooooo gonna love this series!
+LadyG Nails yayyy I'm so excited for the next video!
1:35 "its not a problem anymore"-simplynailogical
Troom troom. 😊
I do all of these and my nails still start to pop off on day 2 of my manicure 😭
WOW,I JUST FOUND YOU 20 MINUTES AGO AND I AM IN LOVE WITH YOUR KNOWLEDGE.
Haha thanks so much Regina!!
very helpful thank you. I have started using some these tips already (before seeing your video) and my nail polish is lasting up to 4 days! which is good for me as they normally chip after a few hours after them bring painted. xx
+Kerry Johnson I'm glad you found the video helpful Kerry! Another tip is to use non-drugstore polishes, I find those last a lot longer!
Love your hair!
+xMourningStar thank you so much!
Also... Serious Q.. DO I need a base coat or top coat when using nail stickers? Would that improve the life of them if I did? (Instead if them lasting just a couple days and then sliding off.)
Ok,this sounds crazy, but it is true!! I put coconut oil all over my nail bed, let it set 1-3 minutes, then wipe off excess w dry Kleenex, then I paint my nails ( I don't wash oil off)- this has made a huge,huge difference in my nail polish wear and stopped my peeling!!! I always cap tips and I use base coat and a separate top coat. Sometimes I use nailtiques, but the oil makes a big difference- believe it or not!!!
Haha I haven’t heard that trick, Shannon! Glad you figured something out that works for you.
Thank you for the code for discount on the cuccio dehydrater, base coat, and top coat. I can't wait to try it. I use opi chip skip, and seche vite base coat and top coat. I've loved these products, so I am excited to try something new :-)
earlyy ✌
plus, I love the new series! keep up 😄😄
+Lior Vadhavkar thank you so much! I'm excited to share the next one :)
+Kelli Marissa aww you replayed 😱😄😚
its like 1 am in my country but here I am watching your videos 😂
Thanks for the great tips, I just started doing my own nails and this totally helps!
I have been doing exactly what you do since high school. My twin became a licensed cosmetologist before we graduated high school. Great video. 😍💅🏼
Ooh that’s lucky to have a sister to do your nails :P
I can't wait to try the dehydrator. Thanks Kelli 👍🏽
+T Zinot I'm glad you found it helpful!
I definitely learned some stuff from this video! Love the concept of 101 basic knowledge stuff because I'm clueless!
+Sarah Hall yay I'm glad you found it helpful! I'm excited for this series, I think it'll help a lot of people with the basic questions :)
Im a nursing assistant &Im constantly washing my hands. So polish never stays. Does these tips work for someone in my field?
I'm not an expert, but based off the nail videos I've watched, I think these should all help, but they might not help as much. I think the biggest thing is getting a really good top coat and maybe even reapplying every couple days to make sure there's always a thick layer of topcoat.
I wipe my nails with alcohol before applying my base coat that seems to work well for me
+Jeanne Sohre that's a great idea as well to dry out the nail!
So glad I found your channel. Love these tips.
+Rhonda Dennis hi Rhonda! Thanks so much :) hope you'll tune in to the next Nail Polish 101 vid!
This is so funny. Just as you mentioned the base coat I started to look for my clear coat wondering if it was indeed the same thing and NOPE. haha. Thank you so much! And you have an amazing smile!
Oh wow thank you Jessica :) you'll find such a difference when you use actual base coat, haha!
Great video!! I use rubbing alcohol or wash my hands before I apply my basecoat. Is dehydrator basically the same as rubbing alcohol?
+shell1338 it's probably very similar!
shell1338 Nail primer (used before applying artificial nails) and acetone are also good dehydrators in a pinch. They are EXTREMELY drying, so I'd advise to only in use if you are out of your normal dehydrator, or on clients with really oily skin or have issues with chipping polish. 😊
shell1338
So cool
Kelli Marissa
Oh my gosh. You are so cute! Great tips!
+Kat Wolk Kat you are so sweet ❤️❤️ thank you!
This was very informative. I never heard of a dehydrator. It’s great that you mention the importance of the base coat.
Thanks for the nail tips. This was very helpful. Great Job!!
Thanks so much Antoinette!
Why i cant keep my manicure more than 2 or 3 days 😑
Try some of these tips!
Zara Hs my pedicures last like 3 months but the moment I paint my nails they get ruined by day 2
Mine chipped less than 24 hours
base coat helps the polish stick to your nail more easily. A base coat also creates a barrier that helps protect your nails from the damaging effects of nail polish. It prevents staining and peeling, and it will give your polished nails a more even texture. 🙂
+Kelsea Pope thanks for sharing Kelsea!
Super HELPFUL!!! Simple and affordable and DOABLE!! Thanks great video.
So glad I could help!!
You just blew my mind about the nail dehydrator! I had a manicurist tell me one time I had oily nail beds and anytime I mentioned it to someone else, they looked at me like I was a freak. Not only do my nails chip but the whole sheet of polish will literally pop off like a week later. I'm going to try that nail dehydrator and see if it works for me. THANK YOU!
+anoceanbetween I hear that a lot from people, they don't know why the polish pops off whole from their nail but it's because of the oily nail plate! You're gonna love the dehydrator haha!
I love how you are so sweet and always smiling💖❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Oh thank you so much Jay :) I try to be as positive as possible because we really need more of that haha!
😘🥰❤️
Kelli Marissa you are so nice as well💖💖 thank you for replying
I noticed when I use base coat it makes my nails peel after 2 or 3 days. I tried no base coat my polish stayed with no peeling or chipping for 5 to 6 days
Vanessa B everyone's nail cheimistry is different. So I guess it's whatever works best for you personally. :) with me I feel if I don't use a base coat my manicure doesn't come out as crisp and clean as I'd like it.
That used to happen to me until I changed my base coat brand
+Vanessa B you might want to try a different base coat!
Maybe your basecoat is not so fast-drying. Which one are you applying?
You also want your layers to be thin. If your base coat is too thick it will peel. Capping the end is also another good tip
This is SO helpful! Thank you 💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽
+Diana Leano thanks for watching Diana!
Thank you! That was so helpful :)
+MakeupAngel I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This was really helpful thank you
and my tip is I always apply two coats of topcoat (don't know if that counts as a tip)😂
+Kayla Haynes thanks for sharing your tip, Kayla! :)
I personally do that same thing or if I just apply one coat of top coat 2 days later I will apply another
What polish did you use in this video?
China Glaze Bottom's Up
I use Sally Hanson's Big Peel Off Base Coat and Quik Dry Topcoat, and I absolutely LOVE them! I was using a REALLY cheap base and topcoat, and I'm really happy I upgraded!
+Awackles Art I do find that spending a bit extra on base and top coat is totally worth it! :)
Awesome tips for making your manicure last longer! Tfs :)
+Alliesblog thank you for watching. :) :)
What do you think about swiping vinegar over your nails if you don't have a dehydrator? I've heard it does a good job of removing the oils.
+SandSnowMXGirl hey! I've never actually heard that tip before, but it sounds like it would make a lot of sense (and it's probably also healthier for your nails, since it's natural!) Have you tried it?
Kelli Marissa I've tried it a few times but not really enough to notice if it helps or not. My nails have a mind of their own. 😊
+SandSnowMXGirl lol! I know how you feel.
I've used rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide and they both work well as a dehydrator for my nails
I use apple cider vinegar all the time and it seems to work great for me. TTYL, my friend.
This is how many people love your hair

+Leigh Ann Audet oh my gosh thank you so much Leigh Ann you are so kind!!!!!
Thank you for this. I think I'm going to try a different dehydrater. Love your channel!!
+Amy Armstrong thank you so much Amy :)
okay, I always use cuticle oil, and never use a dehydrator. this is bad for your nails and will cause them to break. use your cuticle oil and just make sure you wash your hands thoroughly before painting them, I usually get 6 to 9 days of wear, and would probably get more, but I take it off due to nail growth, which causes the gap to grow too large.
+jane Doe hey! Thanks for sharing your tips. But - I've used dehydrator for years and it's never caused any damage! My nails are actually pretty strong, I only get a break about once a year :)

I had that same concern so thanks for addressing it! My nails are brittle and often split and chip so logic tells me that my nails are already too dry! I looked up the base coat you listed (on Amazon though) and they also had the dehydrator and a moisturizing base coat so I was going to order the moisturizing one but the shipping costs as much as the polish!
Don't use alcohol hand sanitizer... use soap and water instead to wash your hands, and lotion to help keep your hands from drying out.
+Tynesha C. Oh that's a good tip!
Kelli Marissa I've learned this working as a nurse... My manicures only last 4-7 days depending how much I'm working... We use a lot of hand sanitizer XD
I love your videos. I am a new subscriber. I was wondering if you had a video or a website post where you talk about your daily/weekly nail maintenance. Thank you very much
+gurlfiend76 hey, thank you so much and welcome to my channel :) I do have an old video on nail care but I'm planning to do a new video soon!
Kellie, I loved this video!!!! THANK YOU!!!
+carolina prieto I'm so happy you found it Carolina!
if anyone has DM (germany, austria, slovenia...) i recomend trend it up nail polishes, they stay on my nails for 1 week :)
+Zala Marolt thanks for sharing Zala!
I love Orly bonder as a base coat
+marci ochoa I've heard great things about that one!
So hard to get now.. :( But def the bomb for base !
I get mine from ulta and Amazon
Thank you sooooo much for this video you answered absolutely all of nail chipping questions thank & I've done all these mistakes when doing my nails thank you😁😁
+Detrick Reed I'm so happy I could help! :)
Thank you so much for your tips. They are very helpful.
+Art LuvR I'm glad you enjoyed!
Odd tip (that I'm kinda embarrassed to write): If you use the OPI peel-off basecoat for sparkle polish DO NOT remove it with polish remover!!! It creates a chemical reaction and damages your nail badly. I wish I wasn't speaking from experience, but I am- I had it on my toes, it was taking forever to chip off, so I tried to soak off, and I'm still growing out the damage.
+Frugal Libertarian oh my gosh that sounds terrible! I can't believe that happened :( did it peel up your nail??
Kelli Marissa It left them with these dark white marks, and they were really dry and brittle. I had the baby toe on my right foot's nail break right in half, and the big toes are still breaking. I never show them without polish because they look horrible.
watch simply nailogical (if you dont already). she uses this amazing peel off base coat to which I forgot the name.
1st vid that I've seen by u and subbed ❤️
+Awesome Pop hehe thank you so much! Welcome to my channel :) I think you're gonna love this series!
Sounds great!
+SWEETROSE SINGS glad you enjoyed the vid!
Great tips Kelli! Thank you...I never thought of dehydrating my nails before polishing. Also, the difference between base and top coat is good to know...I thought they were basically the same! And I also used to always oil or lotion up my cuticles BEFORE polishing. Never again! Gloves are definitely a good idea too. BTW...my nails are finally growing because of your tips! so thank you! I prefer mine short like yours too... I am trying out your square look! I love it with the short length. I do a lot of typing at work, and if they are too long they get in the way!
+Karli Z hey Karli! I'm sooo happy these tips proved helpful for you! I think you'll find a big difference with the lasting power of your manis :) and I agree, short nails are the way to go haha! The square shape has super sharp edges and I always scratch myself but I think it's worth it because I prefer this shape a lot LOL
Ouch...so what your saying is I should invest in some bandaids! LOL
Thank you for educating me. I have only had my nails done a few times in my life and each time the tech oiled and lotioned my hands BEFORE applying the polish. They drizzled alcohol over my fingertips and then applied the polish. The next day (or even that afternoon) the polish was peeling off. Thank you.
Oh yeah that'll definitely make it peel off faster haha! It's a common mistake!
Love this Video! 💖
+MARIEL thanks so much! :)
I agree completely! I also add another top coat every other day to keep my nails looking fresh and help it last even longer!
+Creekside Homeschoolers ooh yes great tip!
