[@jasmine_1111]

Yeah same I just wiggle it off of the ledge of the bottle and then screw the cap back on and then screw it back and it reattaches

[@paulamead4591]

I cannot believe this video is over 3 years old and I didn't know any of these hacks. I guess we are never too old to learn something new. Thanks for these wonderful tips! I hope you still read your comments when you posted this so long ago 👍

[@Lobstrique]

i've been doing nail art for several years now, and it seems like i've seen all the possible nail hack videos. usually they have the same hacks, but somehow i keep hoping for something new to learn :) and ohmygod THIS IS IT! i've gotten so much from your video, thank you! the dotting tool for cleanup hack, the don't sponge up to the cuticle hack, the perfect illustration for why you need a quick-dry topcoat before applying vynils. i think i'm gonna rewatch it much more than once and i love your fingers, honestly :) my mom has much more crooked fingers and i think they look out-of-the-ordinary in the best possible way.

[@Banicured]

What a sweet comment!! Thank you so much. I'm so happy this could help you :)

[@melodiousmoon1053]

you nail had to be longer for the shape of nail you have

[@saraarocha8144]

I completely agree, I'm an amateur home nail girl myself, however, all the videos I've seen so far are exactly the same. UNTIL this one! I'M SO HAPPY! You have such great ideas and your visual demonstrations are perfect to follow! THANKS DARLIN!

[@paularobles5441]

"cover up your mistakes with glitter" does this work with everything else in life?

[@Banicured]

I sure hope so

[@sharicross547]

If only...

[@cammey3]

Yep...just run around with a mini pot of glitter and throw it at your ex's and woolah! Hopefully they vanish

[@forsuresullivan]

it should wouldn't that be grand 😜

[@anniehaydon4646]

Works for me!! 🧚🏻‍♀️

[@daniellekleinhoffify]

I thought I was the only one with crooked fingers ! thanks!

[@dumboreo146]

same

[@trinefj11]

Danyellow I got them too :)

[@Banicured]

I used to think the same thing and that I was just a weirdo with strange fingers but honestly it's good to see I'm not alone lol. thank you for watching!

[@medape]

Me too!

[@rachelappleyardd]

I have odd thumbs

[@kleridek1554]

Am I the only one who finds it REALLY satisfying when she paints her nails?? 😂

[@sarahprince6975]

The one I liked most was applying the glitter polish to a sponge 1st! I hate applying too many coats of clear just to get enough glitter...Thank You!!

[@gracecoverstone]

i'm so sorry about everybody saying you copy simply nailogical. i recognize your unique talent and appreciate the video! ☺☺☺

[@Steph-L]

Oh my god. Hack number 6, the thumbs one. This is so simple yet so genius, I would've never thought of that. Thanks man :D

[@Banicured]

Happy to help! Thank you for watching :)

[@SweetDesertHoney]

I have been doing nail art for about 20 years and a couple of these hacks are new to me, so THANK YOU!!!! I am officially subscribed to your channel now too ♡

[@raynathompson]

Several years later.... Just want to say "Thanks!" I don't know why I didn't think of using a small photo album for my nail decals, but that is a great idea. And from now on I'll be using glitter to repair bumps and smudges to fresh polish.

[@katetatman3918]

absolutely love the hack of putting my nail vinyls in a small picture album!! organization makes my brain happy. how about some tips on using the darn things: nail vinyls? Whenever i try to use the type that are used while in a square (ie: zebra, Moroccan, rain drops, hounds tooth), as opposed to the single (ie: straight, zig zag, shevron), i can't get them to lie flat and stick evenly, and so my lines are almost never sharp. this is because my nails are so curved. My problem, i think, is that i do not know where to clip the vinyl so it will lie flat, won't "leak", and keeps the integrity of the design.

[@louisefromNY]

I have been going to the same nail salon for over 7 years. I now want to try doing my own nails... This is all brand new to me. WOW!!! I don't know some of the things that you are talking about, but I sure want to... I took off the gels and tips and can't wait to get started. The first thing is learning how to do my own nails and make them look pretty... That vinyl nail polish is a must.

[@niccy186]

Whenever my cap is broken I just screw the cap back on and it usually is back to normal one time I had to reappear twice

[@SongbirdInShadow]

Other acetone related hack: If it gets on a wood surface like a table or something, you can put a thin/medium thick cloth over it and then iron on top of it at high heat until the acetone stains are gone. Kind of a pain for non-flat surfaces like edges of the table or things like that but it works really well if you spill acetone on a wooden surface :)

[@dawnstonerock4253]

Better hack… don’t do your nails on a wood surface

[@Kimberly-s2o]

I Want to know ware to get the stuff you pit around your nales when polishing, and if you mess up you can just peel a way. WARE do I get some. I think you have great ideas. Things I would have never thought. Thank you. I will keep watchining.

[@Nemixtli]

This is one of the best nail hack videos I've seen in a while!! Thanks!!

[@Banicured]

Nemixtli thank you for watching!! :)

[@reigningrubies1152]

Lololol "no one wants to see me flip anyone off with that thing!" Omg you're the cutest lol I'm baggin up!

[@kajun8561]

Great hacks, thank you! Mineral oil will easily remove stickers/sticker residue. Plus you can paint it gently over fresh polish. The oil sets the polish, not completely dry, but set. It's the main ingredient in all manufactured polish quick dry liquids. I filled an empty polish bottle for easy application.

[@SweetDesertHoney]

I am so confused by what you're saying here, because it kind of goes against what I know, but I AM a natural blonde (lol) and could just be misunderstanding something... would you mind explaining this with a little more detail? Thank you :)

[@llamabeans]

FYI: the smile line is your visible nail line (the white part of a French tip.) Great video - thanks for sharing your tips & tricks! 😊

[@arleneshumaker8763]

The broken cap hack is amazing! I'll definitely be doing that. And it's good to know that I'm not the only one who gets wonky brushes. I've been using that hack to fix them.

[@heathersmith6630]

Great hacks honey! I know this is an older video but I’m just seeing it. Love the photo album idea for the vinyls! Thanks so much for all the awesome ideas!

[@suenami3014]

Figured out the paint the thumbs last early on, very helpful. I was hoping you would address the little bumps that happen for no particular reason. Is it dust or old nail polish or air bubbles? Or just the exposure to air every time you use it, definitely thickening up the polish. Can it be thinned out with anything? Love the liquid latex, I'm the worst, especially with darker colors. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer!

[@Banicured]

It could be any of the 3 but it is most likely that your polish is too thick. I would try adding some nail polish thinner (I get mine at Sally's and CosmoProf) and see if that helps. Also be sure you are not shaking your polish immediately before using it. Hope that helps and thank you for watching!

[@suenami3014]

Thanks for your quick response!

[@lindseyhuerta6913]

stupid follow my channel (:

[@suenami3014]

+Lindsey Huerta Who are you calling stupid???

[@lindseyhuerta6913]

you dummie

[@anne853]

Wow, you gave us some hacks I've _actually_ never heard before. I didn't think that was possible since I've watched every nail video _ever made_. SUBSCRIBED.

[@Banicured]

thank you so much!! That was my whole goal, so I'm happy you enjoyed my video :)

[@danisarmi30]

In the thumb hack, I use an orangewood stick to clean around my fingers. That way I never ruin my thumbs. And if the dry polish gets clumpy in the stick, I file off the dry polish. I've used the same stick for years

[@CV-tc4vc]

I use the orange wood stick as well!

[@Gianna_Mazza]

You seem so sweet!!!! Thank you for taking the time to make this video. My mind is blown!!! Why haven’t I thought about painting thumbs last!! Smh Duhhhh lol!!! Thanks girl

[@marielleallen4039]

Thank u for making this! Most nail art hack vids are the same 5 things that we've all heard before like glitter removal and blah blah blah, but I didn't know about the opaque glitter and sponge one and that's going to help me a lot! Especially since I love glitter :)

[@Banicured]

I'm so happy to hear this was helpful! :)

[@fieryredhead95]

Totally love all of your hacks. Thank you so very much 💕💕

[@KayossPlays]

OMG DO THE THUMBS LAST Eureka. Thanks!

[@Stevannah321]

I loved all of these hacks! Especially the one where you bump your nail after polishing them, I do that a lot. Thanks for sharing!

[@AdirondackSpirit]

Horizontal clear coat with stripes: so simple yet so genius - thank you!! :-)

[@nicoled.1263]

1:51 when the cap breaks I screw it back on and push to make sure it’s tight and then unscrew it and the cap and brush should be re attached

[@emilyylime23]

This was really useful! I've seen a lot of nail hack videos, and most of these were different than what I'm used to seeing

[@Banicured]

glad you liked it! thank you for watching :)

[@tamaramorton8812]

I enjoyed watching very much but I remember now that I don't have the patience to do most of this. I love the way your nails look, though. I started taking piano lessons when I was young so I grew up having short nails because the longer ones would click on the keys and make it harder to play. So I'll just watch you do fun things with your nails and enjoy it that way.😄

[@aestheticgirl3744]

the thumb hack is so useful! great VIDEO

[@Banicured]

thank you!

[@janetmyricks603]

I’ve never seen any of these hacks before & they were all so good that you just earned yourself a new subscriber! 😊

[@rainytedandeffi7216]

I'm new to nail painting, i've always been a biter but i grew them so i'm really pleased i found your video

[@verlenavelinasutton1568]

Beautiful manicure. When I went to cosmetology school, learning to do mani/pedis, i learned that you always start with your little finger anyway. Thanks for your nail hacks. Thanks, and I’m a new subbie.💅🏽💅🏽💕🌈

[@timidelle1127]

this is AMAZING! so many hacks I didn't know 😍 you deserved a new subscriber xx

[@Banicured]

thank you so much!! glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@aprilgreen62]

The thumbs painted last is the best and simplest thing ever. Why didn’t I think of that. 😊

[@lissfirefly9517]

Simply Nailogical totally disproves and disagrees with not putting thick glitter on a sponge. She does it a ton and it turns out beautifully.

[@Banicured]

Ok? Cristine's opinion isn't the only one that matters. I respect hers but I'm allowed to have my own

[@savage_queen1003]

your absolutely right I agree with you and btw love your videos im ganna subscribe

[@karenpetersen1746]

Liss Firefly love you profile pic and i totally agree. if it turns out so badly show us. o wait it doesn't come out badly so you can't. that is just one of the 20 things wrong with this viddeo

[@lissfirefly9517]

Karen Petersen Thanks, he's my little boy, Sammy :)

[@avlishouspandaspandasinger]

Yasss cristine!!!! I thing this girl watches her because when she was using the simply peel she said no big deal!!!

[@tuwandahewlett2034]

I learn something new every day

[@trinefj11]

I always paint my left hand then my right, since I always get polish on the opposite hand so I can always use nail polish remover to get it off and a new top coat! :)

[@amysuewest3826]

Excellent tips! I like the one about painting a clear coat on your nail before you use the nail vinyl.

[@nalcoppess9044]

almost every single one of these were new to me this video rocked thanks!

[@sleepydarling]

Hooooly shit #8 literally blew my mind!! I've always stayed away from dark gradients because I hate stained cuticles. I'm so happy I follow you on insta and that I watched this video!

[@morgan5848]

Paint the thumbs last. That blew my fricken mind. So helpful but so simple, how did I not think of that.

[@charulathakailas3742]

and

[@chippyl3331]

Glitter on a sponge is GENIUS! I usually have to use 2-3 coats to get enough glitter, and then it's so thick, it chips off super easy! TFS❤

[@MRossetti50]

Amazing hacks I was watching this while my nails where drying. I am going to try them. Thanks for sharing. MaryAnn

[@punkiepolish1245]

I love your videos and your sense of humor!!! I died at the referee part and cover your mistakes with glitter 😭😭😭😂😂😂💖

[@Banicured]

haha thank you!!

[@Nicole0Lisa]

your nails are so beautiful! and finally a nail hack video, where rhe youtuber is able to actually paint his nails

[@Banicured]

thank you so much!

[@Melyssa.RLopez]

These are Great Hacks!!! I never thought of any of these the nick covered with glitter AMAZING!!!

[@WhatsMyFandom]

I start with my pinkies when I paint my nails.

[@danielle21xx87]

Full-Metal-Girl Same girl👌🏼☺️

[@mjastrx]

I start with my index finger

[@mindyvaughn8217]

These were SO Brilliant!! I love the one where you paint your thumbs last. By the way I have that same furry photo album. I bought mine about a year ago when I was 54 years old.😂 I had not heard of any of these. I have tried to make my manicure last longer by painting the open space next to my cuticle but the way you do it is much better. Really great ideas!

[@littlevampire202]

I thought: I'll probably know almost all of them and i actually knew 2 or 3!! tfs

[@carol29carnegie]

Hi I'm a new subscriber and I thought I would know most of these hacks but amazingly I learned a lot, my tip is I always start painting my pinky nail first and work round to my thumb that way there's less chance of smudging the previous nails, thanks for all the information xx

[@shutupmacey]

For the broken cap one, you can always push down and turn and it always works for me :)

[@dawnstonerock4253]

Me too

[@qveenissac]

Sometimes I use cheap foam eyeshadow applicators to do glitter gradients when I'm too lazy to apply my Simply Peel. I also use glitter gradients to disguise tip wear & get a few more days out of a manicure.

[@Ketamish]

I've been looking for some vinyls, but I can't find them anywhere, where did you get yours?

[@imeatingyourhead]

TwinkledT has some really great ones in a huuuuge variety and they ship worldwide for free with nail vinyl orders. (:

[@Banicured]

Mine are all from WhatsUpNails, they have a great selection as well as other items :)

[@LK-ir2pg]

When you cleand the underneath of your nail tip it looked very convincing! !😂

[@stephanijeopdevelt5600]

Great hacks! Liked all of them! TFS 💋

I was actually surprised because normally I know every hack but for these I only knew about half. Great video!

[@Banicured]

yay!! thank you!

[@tiasnails3552]

All good, just gained another subscriber!

[@sanjanasingh2537]

Do we need 2 put top coat even b4 putting nail ar tape??

[@Banicured]

I would recommend it :)

[@trinefj11]

Sanjana Singh depends on how thick your first top coat is :)

[@mn5687]

Probably, it might help like with the stencils

[@adwita7823]

These are my fav. nail hacks! the most helpful one was the one in which u used the dotting tool n cotton! I usually get dirt under my tips and this hack really helped

[@stella-pp6tn]

In the 3rd one u can just put the cap back in and open it again

[@Pebblesmas]

Yeah, that's what I thought to, so you don't need any other tools and no nailpollish on the tool or yourself ;-) But nevertheless brilliant idea with this extra tip ;-)

[@roses9707]

yeah thats what i do

[@juliagraham3968]

+Julia graham ya i know sorry ok

[@jennifercheck777]

You can, but if you glue it, there will be no chance of it coming off again

[@malkies6341]

Haha luv the "add glitter" hack, my husband's artist mentor's mantra is "if you make a mistake just add glitter!"

[@the_crafter451]

where did u get ur liquid latex?

[@mashellthomas4813]

Wow #20 is the best tip for me. I have kids that come first so I'm not able to get mine filled right away. I never thought of that. It blends great, good tip

[@Erikaahh_Mae]

when you said smile line y were actually talking about the cuticle line. the smile line is the line that separates your skin under your fingertip to your actual nail, you can see it when you have no polish on through your nail. does that make sense? it's hard to explain

[@Banicured]

I know, I just misspoke :)

[@devinmcgraw6355]

You are fantastic “no one said you have to paint your thumbs first!” 😎

[@FM-cf2hy]

Thanks for sharing let me sugest you my little trick to clean my nails. To clean the back of your nails try a soft toothbrush to wash them you will get a better results with out hurting your self

[@danielle21xx87]

Fanny Medina That’s a good idea👌🏼 as a lot of nail brushes/scrubbers are quite rough & harsh. So thanks 4this idea❤️

[@ceribeedle4387]

Thanks so much for this tutorial on Nail polish hacks.. I've been wanting to get the vinyl sheets, and I'm glad I saw your video.. I would of never known to put a top coat on first, before sticking the vinal on your polish.. I know I would of been stomping around the house if my polish would of lifted.. lol..lol.. So, Thank-you very much Young Lady.. This old(er) woman looks forward to learning more from you.. Keep up the good work..

[@grownwoman777]

When she said call the company i laughed my world off! I am only allowed to buy nail polishes that are on sale or max $15

[@manisavvy9632]

Grown Woman idk who’s telling you you are only allowed to buy polish on sell......but tell them to go jump off a cliff and buy that polish love. LIVE YOUR BEST POLISHED LIFE!!!❤️

[@Iserailyvelasquez]

For the nail polish stick to stay in the bottle you can just close it again and then twist it when you open it

[@carypeterson9554]

I probably need liquid latex for every time I paint my nails just as a general rule! Lol! I am awful! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@dawnstiller]

That was my favorite tip too! My daughter has some she uses for cosplay. I'm going to clean out an old polish bottle and pour some off for myself for manicures.
