“The idea with the efile is not to apply pressure but to let the efile do it for you” that explained so much for me thank you!!

[@MarlaKris]

You’re so welcome, love!! ❤️

[@lisawillis3]

Love my melody susie file, and I have the one with the air filter. Worth it! Might invest in this one so I can file anywhere!

[@kerryanntaylor1926]

Thanks!! What you said about forward/reverse totally made sense, now I get it 😊

[@lauriquigley1550]

I just got that one for Christmas!!! I'm in love with it!

[@saraiveliz488]

I love doing my own nails, but they never look "salon quality" like yours ALWAYS do. I barely found your channel today so I am excited to pick up tips and tricks from you!!!

[@MarlaKris]

Welcome to the family, love! You got this!! Time and practice 💕

[@valriechang]

Found you after I messed up my left hand soaking off and trying again. Thanks for the info

[@ycarr6874]

Ms. Marla, you are amazing!! I say it every time. I truely believe it. Leave it in the corner of shame… love it!!! I know filing on camera is not your favorite but it is appreciated. Thank you!!!

[@MarlaKris]

Aww shucks 🥰 I appreciate the crap outta you! ❤️

[@henhouseblossoms]

Yesssss! I love a fine sanding band for so much! I have been using that far more than most of my other bits.

[@MarlaKris]

Yasssss!! Newfound love 🥰

[@henhouseblossoms]

@@MarlaKris and you are too funny! I am the same way with which bits I use. I always say If a professional is watching this I’m sure they are cringing. Is this the right bit to use, I don’t know but it’s working for me!

Never thought that I would eFile but it appears to be one of the most efficient and best ways to clean up the cuticle area after dipping. Bad peelie, bad peelie! 😂 Thank You for sharing! 😊

[@deborahnblaineaucoin]

❤awesome. I want an efile! I have a mini one, but this system looks like it would be gentler and have more options.

[@pattyforsyth502]

Good morning Marla! Great video! I learn so much from your videos! Thanks!😘

[@MarlaKris]

Thank you bunches! ❤️

[@DIYNailsBySt]

I have the Scamander. It’s been a good file to have for beginners. One thing I’ve learned to do is prime the diamond bits I use for cuticle lining. I used to cut the crap out of myself. Gave up for a while before starting back. I haven’t used the sanding bands yet but, I’m not quite there yet. Lol Thank you for this video!!! Love you!

[@upinthewoods]

I realize this is an old comment but I was wondering if you'd mind explaining what you mean by this? Priming diamond bits? Just ordered my first e-file and trying to learn as much as I can (and avoid "cutting the crap out of myself" lol 😬)

[@CarolJoyable]

I just ordered this @Marla Kris! Thank you for your guidance- you rock!

[@MarlaKris]

You’re gonna LOVE it!!

[@tammyscorner6]

Good morning, Marla!!! Thanks for this video. I needed it. I don't use my e-file much but I may start again... Love ya!

[@MarlaKris]

Good morning sunshine!! 💞

Great tutorial! Thank you for the education and entertainment!💜💜💜

[@MarlaKris]

It’s my pleasure, sweets! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@lesliepedlar3280]

Lol 😆 "Mock the Peely"! Great video. I didn't realize to avoid the need to use pressure while efiling was to simply increase speed. I have never used my efile higher than 12. I will try at a higher speed next time. Thanks Marla!

[@MarlaKris]

Lol MOCK IT!! Let me know how you do at a higher speed! ❤️

[@carolyndurant8413]

Thanks for this video . I have gotten better with shaping at my cuticle area but I don’t always get that contouring as well as I like.this is helpful

[@MarlaKris]

Thanks for watching, darlin! ❤️

[@kaythompson8721]

Thanks for the great tutorial! I keep going back and forth with using my efile or just and emery board. I'll try the efile more...

[@MarlaKris]

Do what makes your heart happy!! 💞

[@sophiaevans2080]

You have very pretty nails and hands by the way so clean and greatly manicured you do a good job

[@MarlaKris]

Thank you so much!! 💗💗

[@robinhenderson3730]

thank you I finally understand how to use my efile. I have a Melody Susie free standing hand or peddle, and I was afraid of using it because I would burn my nail and take out chunks. Used it today while watching your video and tada, easier to do and no chunks. Thanks Marla

[@MarlaKris]

That’s outstanding! So happy to help you overcome your fears!! 🥰❤️

Love this tutorial! Exactly what I needed!!! I get braver with my efile with each mani I do. Thanks, Marla! Happy New Year

[@MarlaKris]

Yay! Happy new year, love! ❤️

[@latriciacason7670]

I’ve watched this video before and I liked it but now that I’ve started using my e-file I love it! I was wondering how to remove bill from my dip powder (some of my nails tend to look too wide on the sides) and I wanted to see how the thin that out and your video helped. I didn’t think to use use a fine grit sanding band to sculpt my nail after applying dip. I’m going to try this on my next mani. Thank you so much for this video!

[@MarlaKris]

The fine grit sanding bands are so gentle.. you can remove a little bulk without taking away too much product!

[@kimberlyskinner8177]

Thank you for this video 💓. New Year, need refresher and new E-file.

[@MarlaKris]

YUSSSSSS!! ❤️

[@UniqueGrinnell]

I actually have this one! I bought the green one last month and I absolutely LOVE it. It's my first one so I'm glad I picked a great one, I use it all the time and I barely hit half on the battery. Their have been times where I have to leave mid mani and I take my efile with me and finish filing in the truck 🤣 it fits perfectly in my purse. I got so excited when I seen you got the same one sent to you! Love love all your videos they have helped me so much.

[@MarlaKris]

Omg that’s genius! Nails to-go! ❤️

[@melissas9543]

Morning!! I’ve been needing this. I think I need different bits lol

[@MarlaKris]

Trial and error, darlin! You’ll find your perfect combo! ❤️

[@kimann7802]

Hi Marla 😘 thank you for the tutorial. I would love to invest in this efile (love love love the green one on Amazon) but at the moment I can’t. One day soon though. I do use both my efile and hand files to achieve the best look for my mani. Love you 😘

[@MarlaKris]

I’m with ya sweets, I def need both! ❤️

[@judysalisbury3363]

Thanks for the review. I wanted to share with you, YN showed a vid where you can use an eraser, like old school pink kind, to clean your bits. They say the acetone softens the product but it can still stick? So you just put bit in efile and turn on then run across eraser. Supposed to help longevity also. Works great!! 😁

[@MarlaKris]

That’s super helpful! I’ll have to try that out! Thank you! ❤️

[@debstone4062]

You're so funny and very helpful ❤

[@KristinWhitehead]

Thank you so much for this video. I've had my e-file for a couple of months and I'm still getting used to it

[@MarlaKris]

You’re so welcome!! Ease comes with lots of practice, darlin. 💞

[@RnRHeath]

Corner of shame! 😂🤣😂 love it!

[@PatrickBB21]

You're nail beds are the perfect shape ☺️

[@lhuggan6559]

My comment might be late but I luv my efile. It makes life so much easier. Thanks for the video.

[@MarlaKris]

Better late than never! 🥰

[@KalenaO]

So happy to see you liked it also! I bought it when it came out, they had a 50% off sale that was too good to pass up. It’s my first and only e nail file and I have ZERO regrets. It’s awesome and has changed my nail game. Edit: to say that I actually have the Sparkle Plus and I have no idea what the difference is because they look exactly the same but I have the green one lol

[@chassidyrettell5706]

50% off?! 😭😭 damn, missed it.

[@KalenaO]

@@chassidyrettell5706 See my edit, I have the Sparkle Plus. I should say “50% off” with air quotes because the drills seem to always say they are marked down 😂 I paid a little over $100 for it. Check their direct website, they have a New Years sale going on right now.

[@MarlaKris]

Absolutely love it!! Plus? Pro? I don’t even remember what I said 😂 but yep! It’s the same as the green one!

[@Wendymarino]

Mock the peelie, I luv it🤣🤣🤣 while your sisters have fun hehehee

[@MarlaKris]

🤣😂

[@PawsupCrocheter89]

Just pulled the trigger on the $25....I'm new in the dip game and can't justify investing in this one yet. 😬 I'm hoping this will work as well🤞

[@knitknack2285]

This is very helpful. I bought a file from revel, but it broke soon after I got it lol I guess this is one of those things you get what you pay for. But the company did offer me store credit. Revel is an amazing company. Have a great day Marla!

[@MarlaKris]

Totally agree on all accounts!! Thanks so much, sweets! ❤️

[@katc9079]

I definitely need help with the e-file and the different bits! I have no idea what I am doing half the time! Thank you!

[@MarlaKris]

Neither did I 😂🤣 you’ll get there 💞

[@xoRitz727xo]

Not me sitting here saying "shame on you" to the thumb peely in the corner. 🤣 I love the small ball bit, I even use it on my skin to remove any dead cuticle.

[@MarlaKris]

🤣😂😄🤣

[@patty504]

Thanks, Marla. Love the videos. I'm still at the early DIY stages and getting better at dip. However, I simply cannot seem to get the shine and smooth feeling as well as the salon tech can deliver. Is there a particular video addressing that?

[@liliaml6955]

1. Using the efile helps to evenly file down the product. 2. After you’ve filed your nails you must buff with a buffing block, they usually have them at the nail supply store. It has a 2 different grits, use the smooth one. 3. After you buff, I usually wash my hands just with water, then I follow with another coat of the activator. 4. The topper I use is one by revel nail. Use 2 coats and let it dry between coats. Wait at least 5 mins before adding cuticle oil.

[@crystald3655]

If you get I binder with page protectors you can put manuals and guides in there so they don't wind up lost or scattered all over the house.

[@Megan.Reeves]

Happy New Year new friend! 🧡🧡🧡

[@MarlaKris]

Happy new year, lovebug! ❤️

[@ladyessexlioness]

Great efile I’m using a £10 thing can’t really control the speed and vibration all the time lovely video if only I could afford one 😊 but great review and nails thanks 🥰🥰

[@MarlaKris]

Thanks so much for watching! 💞

[@JustNikkie_]

This video is very helpful for sure. Question did you top the color before finished filing or are you going over the color? And does your finish filing defer between if it’s gel or dip powder

[@MarlaKris]

The color is encapsulated with gel base bc I used gel liquids for the mani but if you’re encapsulating with clear dip, it won’t have the sheen that my nails do. Nope! No difference! I’d file the same way whether it was gel or dip!

[@shondacheesecake]

Never heard of peely base coat! Thanks thumb nail for popping off lol 👍🏽

[@MarlaKris]

Lol right?! 😂

[@llamb7518]

Awesome vieo - Thank you! Why file in specific directions (e.g.: Reverse for left hand when dragging bit toward your body, Forward for left hand when dragging bit away from your body, etc.)? Is it to make the nail look more natural and so basically filing "out" or down the nail?

[@crystald3655]

It you're not careful and don't use it going in the right direction for the way your going it can cause the file to jump off the nail. It happens to me all the time when I forget.

[@lynneshmakoff9726]

Hi Ms Marla, I keep missing you live... ❤

[@MarlaKris]

This Saturday night at 8pm eastern!

[@KimLarae366]

You always make e-filing look so simple. How do you take off builder gel? Do you think a rough sanding band would be good for removal of dip powder and builder gel?

[@MarlaKris]

So bc the sanding band generates heat quickly, I probably wouldn’t suggest it for removal bc it would burn. Instead, it recommend a carbide or a medium-coarse ceramic

[@alleluiaisoursong]

That thumb peely 😆🤣 Thanks for doing this review! I have a question - I have the Melody Susie combo w the dust collector (which I believe is supposed to be pretty decent quality) and no matter what, the vibration hurts my nail beds. I’ve tried different speeds and different bits, over dip only. I wish it worked for me because you make it look so easy! But do you think some ppl just have super sensitive nail beds? I wonder if there’s an efile out there for me! 🥺😅

[@MarlaKris]

It could be that you have sensitive nail beds, it could be a combo of the speed and the bits or some other isolated issue. Have you cleaned the bits recently? A good cleaning may help too.

[@prplsnow12000]

What I would like to see is how to use an e-file with a sparkly mani. It seems that whenever I use it with sparkly powder then the activator it dulls it. Same with colors that are supposed to stand out. What am I doing wrong??

[@_jumpcy]

I've been waiting for this since it's debut in your live! 🤗🤗

[@MarlaKris]

Lol ask and I shall provide!! 😂

[@candacehandyside903]

I just got this e file. It’s a real good one. However, my opposite hand is kinda hard to do

[@MarlaKris]

It sure is. Takes lots of practice. Make sure you’re stabilizing your hands and wrists on something. That’ll help a lot!

[@angelrussell1616]

I just got me melodysusie right befor3 Christmas I'm not really that good but my research said this was a good one and it's not big. I'm learning and like got this brand so far. I just trying to get my nails like yours lol!!

[@MarlaKris]

It’s a good one lol and it will take practice (like everything in life) but you’ll find your rhythm! ❤️

[@happygitana]

I just got a beginner version e-file for my dip nails. I did a dark blue color with a clear cap but I have white specks in the color..did I file too much? It's also a new color so I don't know if it's the dip

[@MarlaKris]

I doubt that’s the file.. sounds like that’s the clear dip causing the specs.

[@Pocketpebbledesigns]

Do you buff with that block before gel top coat? I’ve always roughed up before gel top? Lemmie know your preference. Thanks

[@MarlaKris]

Yes, that’s just my preference because I don’t keep a mani on very long but for longevity I would advise skipping the buff!

[@Megan.Reeves]

What do you think of OPI powder, the prices at Walmart seem good? What is your favorite base? What is your favorite glossy topcoat?

[@MarlaKris]

I’ve used OPI powder a couple times and liked it! No issues. But… I’ve used others that I prefer so it’s really just about what your preferences. Currently fave dip base is a tough one.. I like the sparkle and co still (def my vote for #1 glossy top coat) but also like beetles, Tomicca, Great Lakes and Gigis custom dip liquids. All depends on how you like your liquids!

[@Megan.Reeves]

@@MarlaKris I’m sure I’ll have more opinions with time. I had great success with Gelish gel short round tips and double dip french. Lasted a week so far and looks beautiful! I’m terrible with filing but the tips are a perfect shape!

[@blondie5050]

Any particular grit buffing block? This may be a silly question, I've just read struggled with keeping dip top coat happily on dip. I can't seem to get the correct dip surface whether for dip or gel top coats. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. This video did help alot! Thank you!!!

[@MarlaKris]

Hey love! So with a dip top coat, you def want an ultra smooth surface. Try a 240 or higher buffing block. For gel top tho.. you want a rough or sticky surface. You can either 1- skip the buffing or 2- buff, then apply a gel primer. That will hold onto the nail and the gel top and help prevent peeling. Hope that helps!! 💙

[@blondie5050]

@@MarlaKris thanks so much for your reply! I really appreciate your help! I've been using a finer grit sanding band and I believe it is 240 so maybe I'm just not sanding enough. I think I may grab a buffing block though and see if that's a better method. Thanks again!!!

[@HeythereHelena]

Do you have advice for skipping? I've made my finger bleed a few times because even though I file the opposite direction of the rotation sometimes it skips or gets caught and moves in the direction of rotation and cuts me

[@MarlaKris]

Could be a few things going on.. if it gets caught and rolls, it’s likely because you’re not rotating quick enough and you’re having to apply too much pressure. You can remedy this by increasing the RPM on your efile. If you’re using an efile that isn’t speed adjustable (only has 2-3 speeds) there’s not much that can be done aside from using a more powerful efile. I prefer an efile that has up to 30-35k RMP potential.

[@danni6613]

I love my KS efile

[@karennewsome572]

how do you keep from nicking your skin? I keep wacking a chunk out of my cuticle area using the sanding band :(

[@MarlaKris]

Lots and lots of practice. I still cut myself occasionally

[@lauriquigley1550]

And omg, laughing so hard "mock the peelie" 😂😂😂

[@MarlaKris]

🤣😂

[@blondie11up]

Which are the bits I’ll need for dip powder nails ?

[@MarlaKris]

Totally personal preference! I like the diamond cuticle bits for prep, the sanding band for contouring after dip and the carbide safety bits for removal 💞

[@CraftyInes]

Have you used Maniboss Nail Drill? I’m curious if that’s a good one or not. The hand piece looks thinner to me.

[@MarlaKris]

I haven’t ! But it looks awesome!

[@tammyg2631]

OMG! You so made me laugh you thumb shame you! 🤣 lol I've been sick a week! Covid maybe but I am improving so that good! Anyway thanks for making me laugh! Poor thumb!

[@MarlaKris]

🤣😂 happy to have made you smile! Hope you recover quickly, darlin!❤️

[@rtorres0711]

So anytime its towards you, it's forward regardless of the hand your using and reverse when directing away from you?

[@MarlaKris]

Almost. If you’re filing towards yourself with your right hand, forward. If you’re filing towards yourself with your left hand, it’s reverse. In a nutshell, you want the bit to spin in the opposite direction you’re moving the drill.

[@rtorres0711]

@@MarlaKris thank you for clarifying that!! Just used the Melody Susie sheen drill twice now so trying to look up as much tips and videos so I don't ruin my nails

[@MarlaKris]

Of course! It’s linked in the description below! ❤️

[@huniebon]

Marla, is there a builder gel that does not have to be cured with a UV lamp?

[@MarlaKris]

Since all builder is gel, it does have to be cured but you can use an LED if you’re worried about using a UV

[@huniebon]

@@MarlaKris thank you 😊

[@huniebon]

And what is the difference between builder and poly gel? I just want an extra layer of protection on my natural nail...

[@MarlaKris]

Polygel is essentially gel mixed with acrylic, so it’s a hybrid. It’s much thicker, has the consistency of acrylic but cures in a lamp. I find builder much easier to work with especially for just an overlay.

[@laurabandemer7968]

Ok sorry, you did mention you speed. My bad 🤣

[@MarlaKris]

For prep around 6-8k, for contour about 12k and then removal is around 13-14k but that’s personal preference.

[@trenabarnett36]

What would the reason be for using over 14K?

[@RnRHeath]

I just don’t know what to drill to get or bits -dip flu is sending me to gel application ☹️. Help!

[@wells6351]

I need to learn how to file. I’m new to nails and I swear after all of my filing it’s still not smooth and it’s lumpy and just awful 😣

[@MarlaKris]

This is probably going to sound basic BUT hear me out.. the more you can improve your application, the less filing you need to do.

[@Megan.Reeves]

I bought MelodySusie Professional Rechargeable 30000 rpm Nail Drill, Portable Electric E File Scamander, Acrylic Gel Grinder Tools with 6 Bits and Sanding Bands for Manicure Pedicure Shape Carve Polish (White) $65 is that enough?

Oh yeah.. the scamander is a great efile!

[@danamemeo733]

Do you have a favorite e-file? I know you mentioned that you are using this one lately but wondered if you have a favorite!

[@MarlaKris]

This one is def my current fave. The scamander by melody susie is very similar (lower RPM) and at a lower price point. That one is also in my amazon storefront if you wanna check it out! ❤️

[@candacehandyside903]

I didn’t get the additional bits?? How come?? I wonder 💭

[@MarlaKris]

Yep 180 is a gentle sanding band! 💞

[@lynettieo]

Why do your nails look shiny like you already polished them?

Because I encapsulated them with gel base coat instead of clear acrylic 💕
