DIY Dip Powder Nails (do not snort)

[@EliBleats]

i actually really like how the dip powder looks tbh

[@Meraxeshandler]

It's great on and way easier to get than it was when she made this video! It's the only way I can grow my nails out

[@Anonymous-eo2er]

You could probably get a similar result using nail polish and regular glitter instead of the dip powder. Doesn’t seem too hard

[@ionafrost]

@@Anonymous-eo2er dip powder is acrylic so its a lot more durable and will last longer :)

[@graceriffle9257]

Yep shine as fuck

[@princessego5568]

It's beautiful, but the process here isn't worth it

[@GSMachinist]

So I did some research (polymer chemist here) and it turns out that dip powder nails are kind of acrylic nails.... and kind of not. The powder is acrylic but the #1 Probase stuff is a cyanoacrylate derivative-- basically it's superglue. And yeah, that stuff *smells*. Since the cyanoacrylate is in contact with your nails instead of the acrylate monomer you (supposedly) don't get the weakening of the nail plate that can be caused by acrylic nails. The #2 Activator bonds the acrylic powder and causes it to harden. It seems like the main justifications of these nails are that they can last up to 8 weeks and that people who are allergic to acrylic nails and gel polishes can wear them.

Just a quick rule of thumb for those curious, if you have to mix a powder with a liquid, it’s acrylic. Anything that needs to be cured is gel, and anything that can air dry is normal polish. I’ve used dip powder systems before and all of them are acrylic.

Add white to purple or just use a pastel purple. Set it aside and apply a layer of holo on your peel off base coat. Sponge on a purple and holo gradient. Finish with a glossy taco.

This is coming in a bit late but, Im a nails tech and let me tell you, Dip Powder is Acrylic, finely mild acrylic. The nail prep process y exactly the same. Also, if your nail tech y correctly trained the damage on your nails from acrylic aplication should be none. When buffing the nail, you are just removing shine. It should not be done to the point of removing layers off the nail. But obviously regular nail polish is sort of better because of no prep work to the natural nails.

Unfortunately the majority of nails done in salons result in damage because they don't do this the right way like they should. You can repeat this mantra all you'd like, salons aren't gonna follow it unless you spin that wheel and just happen to get lucky with one. That or pay out the ass for a higher chance of them doing it right. Doing it at home is the guaranteed way of not causing damage when doing acrylics.

[@rachaelb9331]

@@Vioven what? Doing dip nails at home is the worst way to do them if you're not qualified. *Decent* nail techs spend thousands of pounds/dollars in education, further training, quality product, and spend a lot of time developing knowledge of anatomy, physiology, correct application, contraindications, hygiene and sanitation, etc etc. That knowledge base is a lot more in depth then what you'll learn following a couple of KZbin videos to DIY at home.

it’s literally acrylic just that you dip it in the powder and then brush on activator (basically monomer) instead of dipping a brush with monomer in the powder- it’s both essentially acrylic powder, so i don’t see where one would be better for your nails that the other? It’s even removed the same way. As long as you’re careful while removing it’s both fine for your natural nails

The c curve on the dip nail nails is going to be tighter/more pronounced anyway because those nails are longer than those on your other haaand. As natural nails grow they tend to curl, not always but often.

[@Baffybabe]

hi I'm going to school to become a nail technician and technically she's using a salon product and anytime a nail technician is buffing your natural nail it's to remove the cuticle which is dirt and oils and sweat that had accumulated to the surface of your nail (not the eponychium which is the skin above the nail bed) so that when they apply polish/ acrylic/ gel/ dip powder it's to make sure that it stays on instead of chipping off and possibly hurting you BUT it is possible for a nail technician to accidently buff too much and do more than remove some of your natural nail. a well educated and practiced technician would only carefully remove the cuticle.

I always do one dip of clear to encapsulate any glitter that way you don’t buff them off after you activate. Also, step 2 (activator) is what causes the dip powder to cure and harden. I know dip powder is a lot of steps, but I personally really like it because it lasts so much longer than regular nail polish and you don’t need a UV lamp to cure it like gel polish. You did an amazing job though! Love your videos! 💖

[@rakelfairfull8662]

I really like the dip powder because I can get a solid week without them popping off. My application needs work, and then I think I would be able to get more like 2-3 weeks. Regular nail polish maybe lasts a day? I don't have time for that. I like that it doesn't require a UV light to cure. I like that it strengthens my nails so they can actually grow and not just break/wear down. I have super weak nails (used to be a biter). The part I really don't like is removal. I was kinda hoping to see how long you could get them to last with the peel off base coat. If I could get it to last at least a week it would be worth it to me.

[@mollywasson3456]

I have found that you need to make sure you have no oils on your nails by swiping some acetone over your nail quickly, also making sure your cuticles are very trimmed and you leave a small space between the dip powder and your cuticle to prevent lifting. Another tip is to do one coat of base coat, let it completely dry, and do another coat and continue the process, you can also do three thinner coats for a more vibrant color

[@katfilson2347]

I started using Revel dip for the exact same reason! Removal is a pain but I like that it doesn't chip off like polish. The thinner the coats the better I've discovered.

[@RelieaYuell]

I probably would use this product. It seems like a poor product if you're the kind of person who wants to paint your nails frequently, but for occasions where you want that stuff to stick for a long time, it seems pretty good. I'd like to see a wear-time test on this vs. traditional polish or even gel, but I fancy it's very long lasting. You prove in the video you don't even need to file with a drill so it seems pretty safe for the natural nail, and I wouldn't be afraid of "weird" chemicals, since nail polish itself is pretty chemically. Sometimes the fumes from traditional polish/remover give me headaches so ventilation is always important no matter what product it is. Since it's such a hard coating, it would also seem to be something you could use to protect your natural nail from splitting or chipping if you have really soft, weak nails and want them to grow out. It also seems much easier than a do-it-yourself acrylic kit with all that nail tip/glue/shaping business that really does seem to need a lot of filing/drilling, which yea does seem pretty bad for maintaining nail layer integrity.

[@kennysworld7699]

It's the same as the "DIY acrylic kits"

[@ashes2ashes746]

Its essentially acrylic like Im not sure about actual formula but the feel and process of applying are essentially the same. The benefit of the dip powder is it goes straight on your nails you dont need a nail tip (which you could probably do with normal acrylic anyways) and it makes them *super* thick and hard so they dont break as easily which is good for someone who's been wearing acrylic nails or even just has thin weak nails. Only downside is its expensive and your nails still get damaged by the buffing/drilling if you do it yourself with a drill/buffing block or if you get i professionally done. It is long lasting (i've done it a few times before) but i grows out with your nails so even though it does stay on eventually it doesnt look good anyways because they've grow out so much. Personally I find it a waste of money because when I have acrylics/dip powder on I have to get them filled at least every 2 weeks because my nails grow so fast.

[@RelieaYuell]

Sadie Spencer Yeah the point mostly is this dip seems to do fine without pre-buffing/drilling, since even with the peel-off base coat it stuck on there better than just about everything else she has put on her nails before. Buffing the top layer of product won't damage the nail itself so its thickness can be managed after application. So if someone wants a salon-style manicure with less chance of damaging their natural nails, it seems like a pretty good product to test out. As for "filling" them after regrowth, I could see how you could manage a similar thing with this product as a next-level skill with some practice. I would think at least the kit is less expensive than a full or partial professional manicure every 2 weeks considering how many applications can come from just 1 kit.

[@Isabella-eg3fo]

Kenny Simoen Basically it is. Dip powder nails are supposed the best nails to get since acrylic liquid isn't touching your skin causing bacterial and stuff. That's why the packing said it needed a file.

[@julihuston6613]

I did Dip Powder nails at a salon for a few months and loved them! They would not chip or move until I went back and had them removed. The only thing was that it's so hard to get off your nails after they buff it down they soak it in acetone. Then even after that they have to still buff the remaining off. It killed my nails I finally had to stop cause after so many times my nails started to get brittle. Which is an issue I've never had before then. So I would just say be careful if you do try them! :)

[@EmeeStacy]

I went and had a dip polish manicure once and only once and it was AWFUL. Because the technician used the electronic drill and destroyed layers of my nail when I was trying to grow them out, and he drilled too hard and too close to my skin and actually drilled my SKIN and hurt me! And the stuff burned my hand a little when it was under the UV light. It was horrible and didn’t even look like it did on the display. Needless to say I will NOT be doing a dip manicure there, or maybe anywhere, ever again.

[@EmeeStacy]

Also I COULDNT take them off with remover. I had to use an EMORY BOARD and slowly sand away the layers of polish until I got tired of it and killed my nails by pulling them off. Haven’t done anything to my nails since because I’m trying to let them heal.

[@krystingates2474]

I'm confused though, dip doesn't use UV

[@EmeeStacy]

This guy used gel polish to get it done faster I think. Also we’ve been there several times, and the other technicians are very good at their jobs. It was just this one guy.

[@jjayjae_]

Emee Stacy You have to soak them in acetone. Once you do you can get it off pretty easily. I know a couple of KZbinrs who do manis like this without sanding/filing the nail first.

[@jakeprice40]

next time, use a cotton ball with 100% acetone and some foil. soak that off instead of damaging your nail more by peeling it off...Its hard to find good people in the service industry...find a better nail tech that cares about your nails and your nails will thank you.

The process is easy and takes only minutes and my own nails are growing and not damaged while I am wearing the powder. win/win

[@ashcashcarter]

Cynthia Bernardy how is it useless?

[@Justadrianna1]

Cynthia Bernardy I think it's pretty legit. It seems like gel or acrylic. You'd probably have to soak them in acetone, like gel or acrylic, to make it easy to come off. I mean, you have to take regular nail polish off too, so...

[@CB-jv6cj]

+Shwee Beez Because who in the world has the time to do 15 steps for a manicure you can do in 5 minutes with regular or gel polish. Also It's a lot more harmful to the nails...

[@CB-jv6cj]

+Adri J2194 regular nail polish comes of easy. This stuff takes ages to put on and damages nails to take It off again. I would never put something like that on my nails but alright. Even gel polish is better because you can get the same effect in no time.

I'm obsessed with dip powder because it hardens my nails and lasts for weeks. Typically if I paint my nails it's chipping or my nails are breaking within a day or two. The only downside to dip powder is the tirelessly soaking and filings to get the stuff off! That's how I found your channel! This video is going to be a game changer for me and my dip nails! Great job for your first application btw! ♥

I just saw the most beautiful holo colour of all.... And I think you don't own it (for that matter, I never saw you using nailpolish of that specific brand anyway)! It's called Holo Patina by Emily de Molly. There is a non holo version of it which is already pretty awesome, that is called Copper Patina. And it's literally like a copper patina. It has this green turquois-ish color of "old" copper (they call it medium "sage green") and gold to rose gold... or copper :D shifting shimmering pigments. And of course Holo. This color is so beautiful, I don't even have words. Like, for real!

I had my nails done at a salon for almost a full year this way. They told me it was "natural" and "good" for my nails. Lol, I should have done my research instead of going in and believing everything they told me. It ruined them because they drill and buff the **** out of them. They last a long time, they're VERY difficult to break, and they're super shiny. As long as you don't care about your nails being brittle, thin and all in all gross when you finally stop the dip.... Then it is great!

Aiyuna you can have these or acrylic nails and STILL have healthy nails, you just don't buff the shit out of them before applying the powder/acrylic and monomer.
