[@elizbeth312]

I saw the kit on amazon, and thought about buying it! After watching this, I definitely will! Thnxxxx! 😘🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@teresalucas657]

Thank you for reminding me to buff them before the top coat! I love my dip kit I have the large one with so many colors it’s beautiful and high quality!

[@bunnyfnbaby]

Thank you for this video! My Modelones starter kit just came today and I was kind of nervous about doing the dip nails on my own. Your video made it look so easy. Thanks again!

[@denisemarine5513]

Can you use the dip with a tip on?

Beautiful I would wear those Iv got a dip kit coming for Reviews! So excited

Really clear presentation, good pace & camera angle with clear instructions😊 thanks

[@ashleyoliva7588]

I did my mother in law's toenails and used the holo taco set with the peely base coat and several popped of by the next morning! I didnt realize its for short term and easy removal. It is very easy to peel off, thats for sure. LOVE all the Holo taco collection though!

Beautiful nails thank you for sharing 👍

[@sunniegb]

I know everyone is all about holo nails, but I love iridescent! I will definitely be picking up this kit! How does the powder compare to Kiara Sky? I tend to get really thick nails with their dip powders, but it could also be me applying too thick of a base coat. Thanks again for another great video!

[@katesnails]

Sunnie Baker i agree! though i love holo, iridescent is underrated! i have actually never tried kiara sky powders but i definitely hope to in the future. to avoid thick nails with dip powder, thin layers are key! using these powders i didn’t end up with thick nails which i really liked :)

[@Nadia-tv6py]

I love how specific you are. Could you please do a video on how to do a refill with modelones nail dip?

This is gorgeous. I bought the kit and it didn't turn out like yours. I will follow your video and I hope it'll turn as pretty as yours! You are much more detailed.

[@AlyssaL]

I feel that, mine ended up opaque but I was hoping it would be sheer ^^;

[@farrara6219]

hey Kate, these are super cute! Does the last coat require a uv/led lamp for curing?

[@katesnails]

the last coat does not to be cured since it is not gel!

Super pretty!! I had never heard of dip powder until today! I’m curious how many applications you could get out of this kit. Probably a lot, huh?

[@katesnails]

i’d say about 5-7!!

[@femketjeNL]

I've never tried this brand nor dip powders before, really think the glittery one looks super pretty :D

[@nellimani564]

[@starcutie41532]

Just bought this in a COVID-19 panic bc everything closed before I could get mine redone. Looking forward to it getting here! Hope it works out because I may not go back 🤣

Omg I did the same thing! Mine is arriving Monday🤣🤣

[@JessyJ318]

How did it work out?!

Hope you clean everything in hand sanitizer

[@jeffyroshen9409]

I had this set loved it but noticed after couple days my nails sets starts to crack dont know whyyy

[@tammib1525]

So, I purchased this product. How long does it usually take to arrive? I got a confirmation on my order, but nothing yet in that it’s shipped.

[@maysaamousa1980]

Love it, what top coat do u recommend to get glossy finsh on dip powder

[@katesnails]

Maysaa Mousa i really like sparkle and co glossy coat for an actual dip powder top coat, but personally i like to add a gel top coat to get a really shiny finish. i like the onedor no wipe gel top which can be bought on amazon :)

Do you have a video on how the peel off gel, works with dip when removing dip? Thanks :)

[@katesnails]

hi! i don’t have a dedicated video, however in a few videos i include the removal 😉

[@VeronicaRodriguez-gy5ol]

katesnails thank you for your reply! 💅🏻💗

[@tfnvv5469]

Love these nails! Too bad the modelones code isn’t working anymore.

[@lindac.142]

Thanks for the great video. How do you suggest taking off dip powder? Soaking in acetone is so messy.

[@katesnails]

that is normally how i remove my dip nails. however another method i really like is applying a peely base coat underneath for super easy removal without acetone.

[@lindac.142]

katesnails But if you use a perky base coat, does your manicure still last several weeks?

[@katesnails]

@@lindac.142 it definitely does not. i'd say typically my nails with the peel off base coat last only a couple days. if you really want a long lasting manicure, the only few options would be soak off with acetone/polish remover or file off.

[@cmonaline]

How easily did the dip nails peel off with the peel off base coat? I love dip nails but HATE the removal so a peel off base coat would be really nice. However, I don't want it to peel off too soon.

[@katesnails]

they peel off very well!

[@camfarqi-jamaicangirl4541]

I just ordered my kit. I'm looking forward to using it cause I don't have time going to the nail shop.

[@camfarqi-jamaicangirl4541]

I tried it. Only dipped twice in color and the broke off.....

[@brownsugar6228]

Camille Farquharson you should dipping 3 or 5 times

[@camfarqi-jamaicangirl4541]

OK thanks. But it will get clumpy

[@genevieveharris0729]

💕💕

[@Sarah-fr4ui]

I love how your nails turned out! They are beautiful. I wish I had long enough nails for dip powder. My nails are too short and bitten. I'm a bad nail biter. :(

[@gIossofblood]

you can use nail tips!

[@katesnails]

thanks so much! I would recommend applying nail tips to add length, otherwise polygel is a great option as well :)

[@user-zk8nc2xe9w]

I like doing chrome powders on my nails at what step would I apply the ? I want a solid colour then a chrome finish do I put it on before my top coat ?

[@katesnails]

hi! you would apply the powder, apply the gel top coat, cure, buff in the chrome, apply another layer of gel top coat and cure!

[@amandanicole7976]

Is there another kit just like this one? I love these two colors and the white is so milky. It’s hard to find one I actually like and I like that one. It says it’s unavailable and they don’t know when it’ll be in stock or if it will. Just didn’t know know if you have a good suggestion?! 💕

[@katesnails]

hi! i don’t know of any other modelones kits, but i really like the virgo and gem kit which comes with everything needed!

[@aw8758]

Hey which e file do you use ? Can u link it from amazon ? Thank you so much !

can i use different brands, like can i use a modelones base and peppi powder and modelones topcoat?

[@katesnails]

definitely!

[@andisnails373]

I think I'm first!!! Whoa!!

[@Maria220759]

I noticed that you did not apply the activator before applying the gel top coat. Some other dip powders requires the activator before the top coat. Does this one not require it?

[@katesnails]

hi! most dip top coats require a layer of activator beforehand. i however found this method to work best for me!

[@micaharagon2454]

could you use a gel top coat instead of what comes with this kit? I'm new to dip and I'm wondering if you can mix dip and gel products?

[@katesnails]

yes! i actually prefer using gel top coat over my dips because i feel the shine lasts longer! all you need to do differently is roughen up the surface of the dip powder slightly so the gel has something to grip onto. then apply your gel top, cure and you’re all done!

[@micaharagon2454]

@@katesnailsThat's awesome! With everything going on it's time to start doing my own nails. Thanks for the info :)

What is the polish you put on before? Also what in the world do I take this off with? I love it but I wanna do a better mani but 100 % acetone isn't working.

This looks kind of overwhelming but I am excited to try it. Does any one know the estimated delivery from modelones website time to USA because of the virus?

[@katesnails]

i totally recommend trying it! as for shipping time, i am not completely sure. i assume a few weeks.

[@rebeccahetrick6576]

How is the top coat gel if it "dried" and you didn't use an left lamp to cure it?

[@katesnails]

it would never dry. it needs a light to be cured and hardened!

yep, the dip nails just pop off like a shell!

Do I have to use rubbing alcohol or can I use acetone to wipe off extra powder?

Hey 💕, I ordered a gel kit from them about 3 and a half months ago. I watched another youtuber use the same kit I ordered so I thought I should order it too. I spent over $60 on everything. I signed up but when I refreshed the page, my email I just used said there was a error when logging in. I got the email saying my order is on the way but my tracking order was wrong. I sent them a email saying there was issues but they never replied. Please can someone help me out!! 💔😞

[@arianaorduno4228]

Do you let the top coat air dry or do you use a uv light?

[@katesnails]

hi! a dip top coat needs to air dry where a gel top coat would need to be cured. 🤍

Did you have to cure them on the led lamp?

[@katesnails]

no. dip powder does not need to be cured. if you apply a gel top at the end, that would need to be cured.

Do you have to use dip powders on Natural Nails or can this be done on acrylics or polygel do you know?

i recommend making sure the nails are thick enough to have more strength, and also using high quality products!

[@user-ez2bs3fq1x]

Unfortunatly as soon as i apply activator the part closest to the cuticles looses color its like the activator moves it

[@lovely404]

How would you remove these. Without the removal base coat

[@katesnails]

you would file down the surface and then soak off using acetone and foil/nail soak off clips with cotton.

[@jeffyroshen9409]

I had this set loved it but noticed after couple days my nails sets starts to crack dont know whyyy

[@katesnails]

hi! this is probably due to the fact that the dip nails are too thin. they don’t have enough structure, and when they bend they will crack 🤍

[@kyliewilson6982]

How long do they usually stay on?

[@katesnails]

these usually stay on for about 2 ish weeks. however normally i take them off within 6 days or so.

[@KLR_FML]

Soooo do you dry the base coat with UV light or?

[@katesnails]

the dip liquids are actually air dry! you would only need to cure a gel top coat if using one.

[@valeskaromero346]

Does it need the lap ?? For the topcoat

[@katesnails]

for a dip powder top coat, you do not need to cure in a lamp. if you're using a gel product (uv/led), it will need to be cured with a lamp.

Mines didn’t come with the bag!!

i would say about 5 minutes.

[@baylahcorbitt1286]

I have this kit and the nails come off SO easily they don't even last a week... can you give me any advice?

[@katesnails]

hmmm. make sure you properly prep the nails by pushing back the cuticles, removing the excess dead skin, gently buffing the surface of the nail and dehydrating it with acetone or alcohol. when applying the product make sure it isn’t too thick and it doesn’t touch the skin. hope this helps!

[@kyliewilson6982]

How long do they last

i found about 2 weeks.
