DIY GEL MANICURE AT HOME | The Beauty Vault

[@DebiJo]

I absolutely LOVE your channel. Your approach is so natural, relaxing, so down to Earth. I have the paper thin nails you speak of. Ugh. I’m excited to try the thin, controllable “Builder in a Bottle” product. I think I can work with it easily. Thank you for helping. I’ve been a subscriber for years now. Thanks again.

[@RandomBubble]

Another iconic nail KZbinr to watch. New subscriber :)

These nails are so simple but sooo freaking adorable!!

[@annettewayne1988]

I just found you today, and I’m so glad I did you’re down to earth you’re not a real nail tech and I just love watching you! I hope to watch new videos of you soon😊❤

[@pameladunn-jones]

I love videos of your natural nail journey! ❤ There are very few others who celebrate the natural nails! Thank you for the tips for 😊!

[@moieri1]

I love that you gel first then file & shape, I’m stealing that step. Makes so much sense 👍🏾 😊

The build on that ring finger is so impressive. Learned a lot. New sub here 💜

YASSS! We love a cordless dust collector!

[@debbiez3425]

Another sale of polish. RARJSM YES. I have purchased products that you have demonstrated AGAIN! Thank you. I admire your sense of style.

[@PamelaRubel]

This mani** is so aesthetically pleasing! And that repair was flawless! Cant wait to binge watch all your videos!

[@marielanders4806]

The builder gel color is gorgeous by itself, but the pearl over top is chefs kiss!! 👩‍🍳 💜 Thank you for sharing! 😊 Sorry commented this before finishing the video😅, but I feel the same way about crystal's. I've never gotten crystal's on my nails for that exact reason.

[@wwiggins65]

So happy to pull up YT after a long day of work and find a new video from Irina!!! YAY! Beautiful and relaxing to watch. Love the color too! I'm gonna have to add it to my collection. 🥰

[@xomelisssa]

these nails are so gorgeous love them!

[@duh_kee]

Love the look of these!! Also you have the nicest nails 💜

[@kimmied.1283]

Your nails look so beautiful! I've learned quite a lot from your channel so thank you!

[@ctran1955]

Idk if this is something maybe you’ve already thought about and didn’t want to, or maybe there’s a video out there already and I missed it-there’s been so many new products over the past few years. Idk how other people but i feel overwhelmed. I tried a few things but they all feel more difficult than I expected. Would you consider making a video about the basic supplies you recommend, especially for a beginner?

[@astraiarune3026]

I foind your channel thanks to a post about polygel nails made 3 years ago and finally did mine but really need that one too you use towards the end or to get the gel off. Ill keep loolong for a link, thank you!

[@anthonyjosephmartineznails]

Yes to extensions 🙏💅 Love this simple and pretty set, and you'd never know that nail was repaired! 👌💯

[@jewdy8915]

I got that same dust collector from a “different brand” during Prime Day for $37. Maybe less because the order total included $17 in coupons. I’m pretty happy with it.

[@kiwigirl3107]

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. Love that look. Simple, elegant.

[@TheBeautyVault]

[@alynicrespilho7934]

This is adorable 🥰 love the little glitter detail

[@thijdukjohnson]

I really look forward to your videos! I have grown out my natural nails for the first time in my life and this look is perfect... I'm ready to make them happen!😁

[@tamidecat]

Great tutorial. I am loving the natural nail look. Is it possible for you to do a tutorial using your non-dominant hand? I am great at using my right hand for manicures, but any tips and tricks using my left hand would be great. Thanks

[@christyb5575]

Love this channel. It’s such a vibe

[@Crazyshortie]

Can you please list all your starter kit products you suggest? I have so much nail products but some double of everything 😂

[@et1Donkey]

Quick question, when using builder gel how do you avoid heat spikes? At the salons or at home I always get heat spikes with builder gel.

[@jessicaotherwise9194]

I think you should do home decor vids. Love the holiday ones!

[@pippareyne4601]

Love this mani! I've been using that color from RARJSM faithfully as a topper since that video 😍

[@nuclearana]

i did a look just like this with that rarjsm shade last month and got compliments constantly over it! it really is a must have

[@TheBeautyVault]

perfection. 🤌🏼

[@erynns8657]

Thanks for the discount code :D placed my first order from beyond polish! And for all the quality content, I’m getting better at gel and my nails are getting long!

When I see a new video I just click thumbs up right away because I know you're going to be awesome. Per usual 🧡

[@LatherScreamRinse]

4:47 Yes. I got the rods you had recommended ❤. Much better c curve with the rods. Thank you for that tip. 😊

[@greenbarn2213]

What an awesome simple and elegant look, did you use in-hype top coat also? Good to see you back ❤

[@jadelapollo8458]

I love using the inhype rubber base coat over the normal one i find it helps other products stick on my nails a lot better

[@TheBeautyVault]

love their rubber base too.

[@thenailauthority]

Which nail rods are you using?

[@jessicaleefeldt9661]

Hi! We’re you wearing some type of gel on your nails in order to grow them to this length? If I missed that info sorry. Love your videos

[@terrifaulkner6232]

The builders gel colour makes your nail white look so clean

[@alvarezmichelle]

What did you used to removed excess gel polish.. Thanks❤🎉 #newbie

[@litoreggie]

When you go around the critical with the brush to clean up, is there anything on that little brush?

[@smittycat359]

HELLO!!! Just started watching the video but I've been doing a gel overlay with the Gelish clear builder in order to smooth out ridges and dips in my nails. Curious to see what, if anything, you do differently or what kind of tips and tricks you have.

[@TheBeautyVault]

same as always, i just really love this shade so much i had to share it. 😍

[@jodiehawksworth3028]

I just love your channel it is so cool and how are they so long

[@leeevers8976]

I enjoy your videos and providing products list. Applying full gel tips would be appreciated.

[@urszuladluzewska]

Love the nails and really liked the round drill bits storage box 👀 could you link it please, thank you 😊

[@TheBeautyVault]

just linked it for you! it'll be right below the drill bits in my description box. they used to have it in white but i didn't see it so pink it is. 💘

[@nygrenshelby]

Love this! When you’re cleaning up around the nails with that detail brush in between polish layers and curing, what is the brush soaked in? Is it acetone? Just curious so I can follow your steps! My nails peel off within a couple days and I spend so so so much time and meticulous effort on them!

[@mariagabriela4158]

She said earlier, either alcohol or the CND nail surface cleanser. She alternates between the two.

[@pamschonfarber1041]

Where do you get nail rods, I've never seen them. My nails tend to warp

[@DebiJo]

Hey. I would like to try the Jelly polish. Have you done a video on those? Tips and tricks? Best brand? Your opinion?

[@wowyathink5982]

Hi! New viewer here! Love your vibe and your “ realness”. Also, you have beautiful nails. I’m a polish fanatic ( indie polishes have been my obsession for about 13 years now. I own probably 2k+) and am always doing nail art. My nails are decent and grow out pretty well in their own but I’ve been wanting to make them even stronger but am so afraid to use anything in them that requires a “ harsh” removal. I don’t even use gel polish bc of the soaking and/or filing for removal. I’ve worked hard to get my nails nice and don’t want to damage them. Anyways, the technique you showed here looks like what I may need to try. Is this what technique what you’d recommend for someone that has decent nails but just wants them to be a bit stronger? I’m seriously itching to try something new but I’m so scared! Idk why gel or anything beside regular polish scares me but I wanna experiment, just want to do so without damaging my nails. Even gel polish has had me feeling iffy but there are so many cool nail art options with gel. Is removal really that bad? What would you recommend for someone like me? I’m a total newbie and have zero clue about any of this. Help? Please! 💜

[@daniellekingggg]

Do you do fills with the builder in a bottle or do you take it all off and start over?

[@valeriemartin7316]

Hello! I may have missed it, but where is the video of your favorite look you mentioned?

[@GlessieGilchrist]

It was your instructional videos that I went DIY natural nail manicure you walk me through a step-by-step process, with an added feature describing what nail products work best for the end results.

[@LydiaKrow]

Probably a weird question, since I'm here for the fabulous nail videos, but could you link your music? It's fantastic, and I love 80s synth so I want to listen to it. :D

[@mastermatt37]

Beautiful. This is the first video that I have watched so far 🙂. Interesting

[@hunkerdown]

Cool video! Your music sounds like the band “The Midnight” Good stuff

[@terrymatuozzi1504]

[@NadiaVegaYT]

[@itsacarolbthing5221]

When you use the angled brush to clean up the edges, is the brush soaked in alcohol? Thank you x

[@TheBeautyVault]

yes, either alcohol or the CND nail surface cleanser. i alternate between the two.

[@shantikobialka8736]

I find that the only reason the nail curls inwards is because of the nail shape you choose to file your nails to, so that almond shape, atleast thats what i find with my nails, it could just be how your nails grow naturally

[@TheBeautyVault]

almond, oval, square, coffin, my natural nails curl inwards and i don’t like it.

[@alvarezmichelle]

Newsubscriber 🎉 such a great tutorial!

[@hunkerdown]

Your nail videos are the BEST!!! Thanks for them! They’re very helpful. So detailed. *oh yeah, what are your thoughts about the Scandoval? What a sh!tshow! I never heard of Rachel until I heard Rachel’s interview with Bethenny Frankel. OY Vey! Stopped watching that show years ago. I did go back & watch the episodes.

[@christinazhang134]

Please record a nail organization & your set up for when you are painting your nails! I love your cannel and your nails are gorgeous! your due diligence to make things perfect satisfies my enneagram 1 perfectionist ways.

[@femketjeNL]

The dust collector looks super cute :D

[@MURPHxiii]

I think I would watch you do almost anything and just stick around for your commentary & down to earth vibes. “Wanna watch me fix a computer?” Sure, why not? “Today I’m going to reorganize my book shelf.” Alright, organizing is always good. “Today I have a tutorial on scooping a litter box.” Fuck it, I’m in. 🤣

[@75Bigsistr]

[@Kimberly-oneminut]

Such a great tutorial!

[@kathryn_stinson]

How long of a wear do you get from your method/prep? I just started working with BIAB- and I’m getting a lot of lifting at my free edge. Do you find that the ph bond and primer is enough to get a good 3 weeks of wear? Mine has been lifting around a week 🥴

[@RAJOHN-ke7mc]

Use alcohol as well. Also use a fine buffing block on the free edge.

[@paufernandez1609]

The amz link for the lamp is for a 6w lamp? How is that able to cure builder gel properly? I'm genuinely curious bc I have a different brand that's also 6w and it couldn't cure the aimeili builder gel.

[@TheBeautyVault]

how long are you curing for? i cure for at least 45 seconds and it’s cured every gel product i own. i do find that aimeili’s inhibition layer is extra sticky no matter how long i cure it for though.

[@bettymakesclub8011]

Would the builder in a bottle be something I could use under builder gel from a gel x kit? My nails have gotten super damaged and I can’t get any gel to stick to them ever with gel extensions. I put them on and they pop off within a week and gels just peel off.

[@Alysaah]

I do not know the answer to that but the best thing for you to do is just let your nails rest for a couple weeks

Comfort channel fr. Just did my natural nails over the weekend too! Used the Kiara Sky builder gel & top coat, with a cute cool-toned sparkly rose/lavender shade from some other brand. #imyourtargetaudience lol

[@d.on.in.a]

Does that primer dry in the lamp or air dry? It looks weirdly shiny and gel like

[@TheBeautyVault]

it air dries, the shine is normal. it leaves a sticky finish so that the base coat has something to grip onto.

[@d.on.in.a]

@@TheBeautyVault ok, I guess we just use different amounts, you apply a more generous coat and that's why it looked unusual to me 😁

[@TheBeautyVault]

yeah i really get it on there. 😅

Do you ever just fill your natural nails instead of totally removing and redoing them? If you do I'd love to see a video on that 😊

[@TheBeautyVault]

i hardly do. and that’s only because i’m always trying new products and looks, but i’d probably just do fills if i had a go to look i wanted to wear a little longer. i could def do a video on it!

So I bought some gel and did the prep and all the good stuff but after about 3 days the gel started to peel off, any tips or tricks to keep the gel from peeling? I did rough up the nail with a hand file and used very thin layers but it just seems to peel every time I do gel, I’m thinking of going back nail polish 😔 I don’t wanna but I have had nothing but issues with gel. Help 😅

[@TheBeautyVault]

how thin are your coats around the cuticle area? do you rough up the cuticle area? are you capping your free edges? so many questions! 😂 that’s a bummer though, don’t give up!!
