This has always been my all-time favorite look when I was getting my nails done! I couldn’t, for the life of me, figure out how I could do it myself! Thank you!

[@MarlaKris]

You’re so welcome, love! 🥰❤️

[@kwildernurse]

Wow you've got from 1000 to over 60k in 3 years!! Congrats!

[@MarlaKris]

I can’t believe it myself!! Thank you SO much! 🫶🏻💞

[@user-sj6nq3bn1c]

Thank you for explaining simply how to prep and the use of dipping powder.

[@jenlam75]

This is by far the BEST tutorial on Baby Boomers!!! Because of this I was able to do a beautiful manicure. Thank you! Ps. First time doing dip nails and this helped me greatly.

[@MarlaKris]

Omgoodness thank you so much! I’m SO glad you had success with it! And your first time?!?! Heck yeah!! Rockstar status! 💕

[@girlienails66]

Oh I love this look!!! It's so freaking gorgeous 🥰💖

[@ladyt3805]

Customer service is important to me because I worked in that field for decades. Word of mouth from a happy customer is important for a successful company. Good for them. And I can't wait for Mani Monday!!!!

[@MarlaKris]

Gayle Key same! Was in CS for a bit myself back in NY. Revel is great with that.

[@ashdingler1]

This method of doing ombre looks WAY better than the other "typical" method i've seen on youtube. Im going to try this method next time! thank you!

[@thehoganhomestead7948]

Looking at some old vids. I'm so glad you created the Facebook group!😊

[@cindylambert4703]

LOVE THIS - so clever :). Would love to see a clear dip comparison - some brands I have found to be grainy so would love your research on that topic... wearing the clear keeps my mails strong AND allows for the use of the mini mountain of polish I have accumulated over the years prior to finding dip! Thank You!

[@KissMyKrafts]

Your video came up as recommended and I am so glad it did!! I just got into the dip powder and gel polish and am obsessed! I want to try this method. Ive been trying to learn to do the ombre and have failed miserably but this method looks like I can handle better than the " tap tap, 😁 thank you!!

[@zitademedeiros3990]

[@sherrifurnia1477]

Gorgeous!

[@MarlaKris]

Angel Sutton thanks so much, love!! 🥰

[@kathleenmcmahon4058]

I’m new to your channel and I’m loving it!!! But what color is on your other hand???? It’s beautiful 😊

[@angelenaj0Li3]

I know this is an old video but I love how your blend of white goes up further even with your length of nails. I wanted these for my wedding and they told me I couldn’t because they said the white was only supposed to go on the white part of the nail and that my nails were too short to have the effect 🙄😔 I should’ve gone elsewhere but I was with my mom and sister. I had to have regular French instead. I never regularly got my nails done and I wasn’t dipping then so I figured they’d do whatever I wanted but nope!

[@MarlaKris]

angelenaj0Li3 I’ve found that most nail techs will say stuff like that if they’re unable to do a certain technique or think they won’t have time to do it. One of the reasons I absolutely prefer doing it myself! Congrats on your wedding!!! Sending love and wishes for a lifetime of happiness 💕

[@misstabithasnails2314]

I had this same problem.. they legit told me no 😂 Same with a full bling nail, told me that’d take too long lol (it does, but girl I’m paying you for the time it takes..?

[@CmiriamH7]

Omg your at over 1k subscribers!! I started watching you when you had 200 some! So crazy!! congratulations 🎊

[@MarlaKris]

Miriam Hudson girl! This is bonkers lol thanks so much for standing by me and for all the support! Couldn’t have done it without you! 💕

[@jjjordan0216]

Me too, I thought her application was better than some of the professionals here in Atlanta.

[@madisonburns6987]

great nails you are amazing at them 😃

[@MarlaKris]

Madison Burns love you 💜

[@cmac3916]

I love watching you. Great ideas!!! So hope I win the give away. I don't mind what it is!! It can't be bad if it comes from you girl!!!

[@tessacampbell6954]

New subscriber here . i cant wait to try this method !!

[@sandraayala8212]

At last a product that will allow me to do my nails, and not have to visit nail salon anymore.. Thank you

[@noramalpica788]

I will be trying this, thank you

[@pjbarnett5756]

Love your technique....I'm a dip powder junkie too! After noticing allergic reactions to certain chemicals, I had to start doing my own manicures. ***Subscribed***

[@MarlaKris]

PJ Barnett hi there, PJ!! Thanks for joining the family!! Do you know what it was that was causing the allergic reaction?

[@pjbarnett5756]

@@MarlaKris Not sure, maybe monomer ...whatever it is, burns like crazy for daysssssss.

[@MarlaKris]

PJ Barnett that’s super common from what I’ve heard. Contact dermatitis.

[@tammyt.b.1078]

I'm glad you demonstrated.that color pink. It's going to.be my next color purchase. I know you can use the tripple vit base with Revel. Can you use another company's activator? Thank you.

[@malaikameansangel1980]

I'm due for a new set gonna try doing my baby boomer set this way and see how it goes lol fingers crossed.

[@artandcreationsbyyvettecre2308]

Looking forward to trying this

[@mariarobes4187]

I really want to try this, the look so nice, I like them better than traditional french🥰

[@jjjordan0216]

I'd like to see how the scrub method works with a dip cream and a dip glitter.😍

[@MarlaKris]

jjjordan0216 I’ve considered this.. I’m not sure but I’ll die tryin!! 🤣💕

[@bessiep4]

So glad your not cutting your nails 😄 another beautiful nail tutorial. Congrats on your milestone can’t wait for you to reach 1million 👍🏻

[@MarlaKris]

[@francesplatt3233]

Hello, really enjoyed this loving the colours, hopefully try this technique my next dip. I think I might try to get some gems how do you glue them on with a certain glue? Many thanks

[@cathytarr4017]

Yes I would love ❤️ to see u chrome and use foil pieces please on dip. I'm a dip grl U are hilarious 😂 😃

[@nikkisix2257]

Awesome mani as always 💗Definitely trying this this holiday break!! Thank you 😊 I’m praying you’re gonna try Triple D liquids bc I’m really wanting them!!

[@MarlaKris]

Nikki Ainsworth ya know.. my girl Miranda from Corgis Wine and Nails (YT channel) loves triple D! If you haven’t checked her out - you should! Her YT and IG link are in my description box! But I’ll def look into grabbing some to try bc I haven’t yet! Thanks so much, love 💕

[@nikkisix2257]

Marla Kris Miranda is why I wanna try the TD liquids 😀

[@MarlaKris]

Don’t you love her!! Im gonna order the triple D on BF I think 😉

[@abbylittle81]

Watching you with that drill on your cuticles at the end almost made me cry! Lol. Mine are always bleeding when I get near my cuticles with my drill and I have to use Neosporin every night for 3 days!!!

[@abbylittle81]

But I liked the video and can't wait to try this! Thank you!

[@MarlaKris]

Aquaphor can be a godsend!! Lol ❤️

[@geocanada3432]

Hey Marla, love your videos!! Do you think this would work with gel liquids and dip powder after being cured??? Can’t wait to hear back from you

[@tracykeller998]

I was wondering about the scrub method with dip. Thank you.

[@MarlaKris]

Tracy Keller my pleasure! And it’s SO easy!! Thanks for watching, love bug! 💕

[@catarinasousa1905]

thats so weird. I thought it would damage the brush because u just applied the base and i guess if u dont dip it well you brush can get damaged. i love this unique method and im so impressed by it. ill def try this at home

[@lisathomson3057]

You’d just hit 1,000 subscribers. Now? A year later in the future? 30,500!!! 😮😮👏👏👏🤩🤩❤️❤️❤️

[@MarlaKris]

I have ZERO explanation for this! Doesn’t even feel real!
