I know this video is 6 years old but it has stood the test of time. I can’t afford proper manicures but have been wanting nice shaped and polished nails. This video helped me so much and I did the best manicure today! Thank you!!
I just turned 30 and I've always tried clean up with a qtip and regular polish remover. It doesn't work at all so I usually end up scratching it off and ruining my polish. xD Thanks for the help! :)
+Kira Bradley haha Kira I used to be the same way! So glad I can use a brush and acetone now :)
Never saw a grown up person use xD
Pls be my mom
Woooooahh ur so old❤
I was unaware that you needed to use pure acetone to clean up. That explains why it sooo difficult to clean up my nails using regular nail polish.
It makes such a difference!
Another tip is to take a toothpick while the nail polish is still wet and just swipe it around your nail. I always do that and it creates a line between the polish and the excess. After that I take my clean up brush and clean of any excess that the toothpick didn't get.
+Holosexual 4 life that's a great tip, thanks for sharing! :)
Holosexual 4 life I love that tip and your username
Holosexual 4 life o
Holosexual 4 life love your nameeeee HOLOSEXUAL 4 LIFEEE
Holosexual 4 life umm that's bad for your cuticles..
Great tip! One for you is to use a napkin or paper towel to wipe your brush on between dipping it into the acetone. This removes the excess polish and keeps your acetone from getting all the residue in it. Works great since you keep it in a container to use again.
+Cindy Wise omg yes that's a great idea! I've done it before I'm not sure why I don't always do it haha!
That's what I do. I only ever need to dump it out when I use a super dark red or shimmery polish that way.
Cindy Wise ii
Just getting back into doing my nails, and I am so messy so this video is perfect timing for me :) Love your lashes and makeup too!
+Paula Kemp I'm glad you enjoyed the video :) thank you so much!
VERY BAD

Acetone melts certain plastic containers. make sure the container isn't soluble in acetone. well ventilated area etc.
+Dineen Serpa yes those are great points!
just use glass!
I love how in depth you go with your videos! Yours have been the most helpful out of all the nail polish channels I'm subscribed to!
I love your channel! I stumbled upon your first nail 101 in my recommended and was so excited to see a simple and concise video on the basics! I love to admire nail art, but I'm so bad at simple nail painting, but your videos have helped me and I'm so excited to start painting my nails more.
+Madison M oh my gosh Madison I'm so happy to hear this!! I'm so happy you're enjoying my videos :) and I love doing simple nail art looks that look super complex - I bet you would do a great job with those!
as a male who hasn't been taught how to do this, naturally I am super sloppy so this is a huge lifesaver, ty!
I'm so happy my video could help ya Jacob!!
To hold your small amount of acetone for clean up, you can also use tiny jam/marmalade jars (the individual portion sizes you get in buffet breakfasts, cafes etc). It's easy to cap it to stop it evaporating between hands. Also, the extra weight of the glass means I'm less likely to knock it and spill it, compared to when I used a plastic lid.
+Dani Barry oh wow that's a great tip Dani! I'm going to save the next single serving jar I get like that :)
I watched about 10 videos before stumbling onto your video about cleaning my manicure. Thank you! Simple, easy, and effective.
I get so excited when I get my lil notification for your new videos lol! You give really great tips, also can you do like a wintery inspired mani?
Hehe thanks so much Gina! Yessss I have so many fun ideas, I hope I have time to do them all!
I appreciate your 101 videos. This tip is most helpful since I am visually impaired and I rarely like to do my nails because I was trying to figure out a good way to clean it up. Your brush technique gives me more control.
+Alexis Rivas I'm really glad you find it helpful Alexis :) let me know if you have any questions!
this is so helpful Kell. Feels like my life has changed, woman!!
+포지호지 lol!! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
The first time I tried this method, I used nail polish remover and had a difficult time removing the excess polish. The second time I tried, I switched to pure acetone but used a thin, long, rectangular paint brush and had a difficulty creating clean rounded nail polish edges near my cuticle. This time, I used pure acetone as well as a round short concealer brush (I used the Morphe M421 brush) and my nail polish looks FANTASTIC. Minus some polish that seeped under my cuticles, my nails look so clean, polished, and professionally done (as pro for someone like me who sucks at applying polish to my nails without getting it all over my fingers lol). I thought it’d be difficult cleaning up my nails using my non-dominant hand, but it was still very doable!
Thanks so much for this video Kelli. I went from picking off the excess polish on my skin in the shower, risking chipping my nails by doing so, as well as having messy polish near/on my cuticles so it was obvious I amateurly painted my nails at home lol, to having the cleanest and most polished nails I’ve ever had right after finishing painting my nails. Seriously game changing!!
thanks!! I didn't know it had to be 100% acetone and I was so annoyed when I couldn't do it before with regular nail polish remover!!
+Phoebe Anastasia yeah I used to feel the same way! 100% acetone makes a huge difference.
same
I think these are so simple and awesome for beginners to nail polish... Just quick tips.. Sometimes is I am trying to find a simple hack or how-to, there's a 20 minute video about a bunch of other hacks when I just need one. I love that these are short, to the point, and yet packed with information
+Haley Brewer I'm glad you are enjoying so far Haley! I can't wait to share the next video :) :)
I used to use the Elf concealer brush, but I've found that a small (1/4") angled art brush works even better for me. I'm glad you shared that you do cleanup just before your polish is completely dry. When I first started, I thought I had to cleanup immediately while the polish was still wet, but that made more of a mess it seemed. Letting the polish have some drying time before doing cleanup was revolutionary as far as the results I got...best tip someone ever shared with me! Clean up makes such a difference in elevating a manicure from "amateur" to "professional" in my opinion. Thanks for sharing.
+Debbie Haney I agree completely, Debbie! Just taking the one step of cleaning up right before your manicure dries makes a huge difference in the quality of the manicure :) I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I love how she is always smiling it's so cute✌🏻✌🏻💕
+Kawaii chan haha thank you so much!!!
It's annoying
Your videos are always I helpful. I never find myself being clickbaited :)
I'm so glad you enjoy them :)
YOUR TIP VIDEOS ARE FREAKING LIFE SAVERS!!!!!!
I'm so glad you like them :)
I wanted to thank you again for your tips on making polish last. I bought everything except the dehidrator (have to go to beauty supply). I followed all the other steps. The base coat really seams to have helped. Were before I had chips in my polish they next day this time it lasted and I did do dishes without gloves with no chips. Your the greatest.
+Diana Pulido I'm so glad to hear that you've found improvement already, Diana! You can also try swiping some polish remover on your nail before you apply the polish until you are able to get the dehydrator :)
I'll do that. Can't wait for your next video.
Total game changer! I hated painting my own nails til I saw this. I'm still learning the technique but thank you for this!
Happy to help, Rachel!
I always use the Elf brush too and it works like a charm. Plus, it's so much cheaper than those brushes specific to clean up. Great video Kelli!
+LadyG Nails yeah I agree, I just love the price point so much!
Kelli Marissa Yeah, you really can't beat a buck haha
Awesome trick! Thank you so much for sharing!! 😍😍😍
SOO HELPFUL!!! Love your videos💙🔥
+kamjamyo thank you so much!! :D
whoohoo! My nails are gonna be bangin!
I love your videos!! I don't do my own nails much anymore but I still watch all your videos!!
+alexa sings im glad you're enjoying Alexa :) maybe you can get back into painting your nails for fun!
Kelli Marissa yes! I'm sure i will eventually, I've just been really into gel nails so I've been getting them done
Wonderful Tip! Thank You!
This is the first time seeing one of your videos and i have already subbed. I love this vid its so helpful. Love your eyeshadow btw❤
Oh gosh thanks so much Ellie, and welcome to my channel :)
Thanks for the tip on the Elf brush!! I'm starting to stock up now!!👍🏽❤😁
They're so good!
Great video! This was so helpful!
+h_abla yay I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Just getting back into doing nails again I always go into the skin when I paint my clients nails. This video is so helpful thank you 😊
I'm so happy you found this one useful Amy! I'm always a mess when it comes to polishing haha thank goodness for cleanup!
Kelli Marissa no worries 😊
this is really helpful thank u!! i just finished sloppily painting my nails with my leftie (im a righty 😭) and i fortunately have that same concealer brush which i never really needed but now i can put it to use :)
Oh yay that's perfect! I hope it worked out well for ya 💕
U know all of my nail polish struggles ur my new fav nail UA-camr
+Ann Emad haha well I'm happy to help!! :)
Kelli Marissa OMG U REPLIED JADHSKDGJSBSHSKSH I LOVE U SOOOO MUCH!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nemo Found Only In A Jeep they're good how about you
This is cool! I usually paint my outer skin that would be exposed to messy polish with liquid latex and peel off later. But this works as well!
+MzKinkyCurl that's a great idea too!
Where do you buy liquid latex? I've never heard of it, but I'm a messy nail painter so I feel like I'd benefit from it.
Lol😂
I really love this video it's so helpful
I know this video is old but I needed this since the pandemic I decided to start on a journey of doing my own nails and this help’s because I always struggle doing the left hand and then I’m left with messy nails .. thanks for sharing
This was so good 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Thanks! I just started wearing nail polish and I’m not very good yet. (In my 30’s but never really been girly.) This will definitely help.
Great idea! I've always just used Qtips dipped in nail polish remover
+KT C that definitely helps for messier nail art looks! :)
Love the elf brush idea! Thanks!
It makes such a difference!
Haha yes i used to always clean it in the shower or wash my hands lol this is way better and it makes the nail polish look a lot more clean and neat... love the video ❤️❤️
+Virginiaaaxo lol you're not the only one! Lots of my friends do that too haha. I'm glad you liked the video!
I like using an angled eyebrow brush for cleanup. I find it gets into every little crevice. I had to learn the hard way that regular nail polish remover does not work and makes more of a mess.
Incredible information, THANKS!
Happy I could help :)
so so well done
+Ayesha Rani thanks Ayesha :)
oh my gosh, I feel so silly for not thinking about something like this earlier, that is so easy! Thank you! I've watched several of your videos and they are very helpful! (esp the nail chipping one, I had that problem all the time!) :)
+Ashley Claggett I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos Ashley! I can't wait to share the next video in the series :)
Hey! Thanks for this, I watched this and your liquid latex sub. video....you saved me time and money! I tried using a brush for the first time for clean up, it was easy and had good results!
Glad you found my tips helpful, Steph! :)
Yes, this was helpful and right to the point. Thank you.
I'm so happy it helped Leza!!
Omg I love your videos soooo much❤️
I'm so happy to hear that :)
Super helpful! If only I was as coordinated as you :/
so glad you showed me what brush you use! I took your advice & ran to my local Kmart ( they were sold out in every other store in town) & got ALL the elf concealer brushes they had in stock, which was only 3 but... they work amazingly! I just hope I can continue to find them.
my husband asked me why I needed 3 of the same brush while we were standing in line to check out, (I'm assuming bc i ran from the makeup section to the checkout lane in the middle of his transaction, ) so I explained it to him that I use them as nail polish clean up brushes & that they have to be replaced every couple months bc they aren't made to do that but @ $1 each I don't mind buying replacements... he just smiled & said "ok hunny. do you need more? ... go get more" (he didn't know I had grabbed all their was. ..lol.)
+Amber Rhoades haha Amber! Your husband sounds like a good man. I'm the exact same, whenever I see them in stores I just buy all the ones they have in stock hahaha!
thank you! just painted my nails dark blue & they look terrible so i’ll try that in the morning - hope it works as easy as you showed us
Let me know how it goes!!
Very helpful for me Kelly
Thank you so much😉😉😉
Very nice and good tip from you.
+LIVINA 1917 thanks so much!
Thank you! This is so helpful! I'll definetly sub! 💜
I'm so glad you enjoyed 😄
Could you please do a Nail Polish 101 vid on how to dry your nails & how to fix small scrapes on the nail?! Love your videos keep up the good work!:)
OMG YES PLEASE KELLI !!!!
I sometimes get impatient and too stubborn so I got up from my chair and do things and boom, smudged. liitle scrapes.
+Colleen Lassa hey Colleen, awesome suggestion! I'm adding it to my list now!
This one has helped me alot. Thank you
Happy to help :)
Come on now Kelli, you aren't that sloppy 😂😂 I know it was for videos sake 😆 Love your videos xx
+Karrie Tavano lol! I did do it extra sloppy for the video ;P
@@KelliMarissa it's an accurate representation of my first time painting nails. I'm a slot better at it now, thanks to all the helpful nail UA-camrs out there like you. :)
Very Helpful.
Thank you.
+lily Barr I'm glad you enjoyed it Lily :)
Love these 101s
Thanks Nicole! I gotta do another one soon!!
Kelli Marissa I am new to the nail polish swatching/art world. These videos are sooo informative! I love your gradients, they frustrate me beyond belief. Lol 😁
I'm going to try this and I hope it works. Just waiting for my nail to dry up.
This really helped me thank you!😄❤
Glad I could help Nia :)
Thank you so much for this!! Two quick questions: 1) If you have several layers on top of each other, do you do this with every layer or wait until the last one? 2) Do you wait until the paint is dry before going in with the brush?
I usually just wait until the final coat, before top coat, while the polish is still wet! Hope that helps!
Thank you. Good vid. Keep posting videos!
Glad you enjoyed!!
Ahhh I'm so on time!
Yesssss!!!
I was so glad you use cuticle oil or lotion around your nails after cleaning up with the acetone. :) I will be purchasing the elf brushes for this great time. Thanks Kelli :)

Can you please tell me what eye shadows you used or do a tutorial on your entire makeup from this video?! It's so pretty i kept staring and had to rewatch the video for the info! 💜
+drummerlovermakeup haha oh my gosh you are so sweet! I honestly don't even remember what eyeshadows specifically I used, but I would guess it was from the NYX Love Contours All palette - I'm obsessed with it lately! ❤️
All I know is yesterday I bought one of those ELF brushes and today my nails look perfect. Amazing tip, thanks so much.
Ahh I’m so happy to hear this!!
Yay! PS online they said they were in stock, but I couldn't find them on the shelf at Target...15 minutes of wrangling later the person who worked there finally went in the back and and found them. Totally worth it!!
thanks so much im super new to this and this helps a lot
I'm so happy you found it helpful :)
Love your hair!
Thank you so much Grace!!
Thanks for the tips!
Happy to help :)

Kelli Marissa 😊
Thank you. I need this
Happy to help!
This is great for beginners x
+Emma Leigh Brant I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the note about the regular nail polish not doing the same job as 100% acetone. I thought I was going nuts when mine wouldn't work like yours! Love sharing your videos with my 11 year old daughter - these beginner tips are helping her in ways I never could! #TeachEmEarly
+Elizabeth G. Haha yesss I'm glad she's enjoying!! :) and I've gotten that question a lot from people (why regular polish isn't working!) so I'm glad I got a chance to address it!
+Kelli Marissa regular polish remover**
Fantastic tip thank you !
Glad it was helpful!
The only thing I do differently is wipe the nail polish that I get on my brush onto a paper towel so I don't cloud the acetone. Then I dip it back in the acetone for the next swipe. I use the Elf $1 brushes too, but I get the eyeliner ones. I need to stock up again soon!
Great tips!
+Emily Sas0531 thanks Emily!
Im inlove with your eyeshadow 😍 do a tutorial please
Oh thank you so much :)
You are my favorite youtuber Kelli omg you're so pretty to!

The ELF concealer brush began to dissolve in the Mineral Nail Polish remover. Decided to buy a better brush. My nails look nice and neat though!
I've really like your videos
Thank you!! :)
Love your choker! 😍
+Eunycel25 thank you so much :) :) it's from Forever 21!
I found that an angled brush works a lot better. It’s not as thick and the angled bristles work so good.
You 're great . Good vid x
Thanks Diane!
