Camera man is seriously geeking out over these and it is the best.

[@Longhairprettynails]

Beautiful! All those foils are so gorgeous. I wouldn't even know which one to choose lol

[@aftereverett]

I'm a simple man. I see a new video from Suzie, and I give it a thumbs up.

+xoxochad hahahah- AWESOME ❤️

[@ouzarua]

You’re so cute 🥰

[@scorneli1202]

Most of those rolls of foil don't even cost $1.00 each if you get them online from China. The way some of these viewers are commenting ("you wasted too much foil"), you'd think Susie was flushing Swarvoski crystals down the drain. Calm yourself ladies and don't be so darn rude! Susie is having FUN! So should YOU.

[@myevilernie]

scorneli1202 do you know a good website to get things for a good price? I’d love to know if you do thanks 😁

[@dadscornerentertainment1102]

Evil Ernie Ali express has a ton of cheap nail things that are great. lots of foils, water transfer stickers, and nail art brushes

[@beautifult.irizarry4470]

Evil Ernie eBay has plenty Amazon too

[@taranagalanawithinah2345]

wish also

[@jaykb6587]

Helpful hint to get foils back into cases:. I keep a pen in with my "must have close-by" jar. Wrap the foil around the bottom of the pen. When it's wound tightly, it will be a little difficult to release. Place it into the case, pen still inserted into the center of the foil. Shake it a few times to loosen, then wind it in the opposite direction from the way you wound it onto the pen. It should release. Love the look of foils, but I flinched when you pulled the entire roll out. It's much easier to handle just pulling a little from the middle. It rolls right back into the container so much easier than pulling it from the outside. At least this is how I treat my foils, and I use them fairly often.

[@phantomkate6]

JayKB Great idea!

[@jwbirdlover]

JayKB thanks for info!! Do you need to wipe the back of every foil? Mine are the clear type? How do u know u must wipe it off?

[@Bluelovezz123]

This are so nice. They remind me of the earth or a globe

[@mayhaikuty2906]

oh my god, thats what i said

[@Jade10122]

I’ve been using foils for almost 5 years. My customers love them. It’s a fast way to glam up a look and make quick cash. Not all foils are created equal and some are hit and miss. One of the issues: doesn’t stick after use. The sticky layer gets messed up after using one color and you’ll have issues trying to get another color on. I use small pieces and hold them together that way all the colors transfer at once. Another tip: after you use a section and you find it’s not sticking: you can wipe the back again with alcohol and it will clean the foil and you can keep using it. There’s different glues available but one of the best brands for foil sticking: Shellac. It is one of the stickiest brands. The base coat is also a good way to get a foil to stick. If you’re using a different brand gel polish: apply, cleanse the sticky layer off your color (gently) apply the Shellac base; cure and then stick your foil. Top coat as usual. Sorry for the wall of text. I hope this helps.

[@MelissaHarrispuffubble]

The foil wasn't wasted, you keep the foils until all the pattern is gone. All ya need is to smooth them out and store them flat until you use them again. Storing them flat makes it easier to use anyway because they won't curl up as bad. This set is very pretty. I'd really love to see some encapsulated(sp?). That blue would make a gorgeous backdrop for some mermaid nails! Much love and good nail vibes floating your way suzie q! 💜

[@cherylcampbell8149]

Is it just regular foil?

[@jenfren723]

@@cherylcampbell8149 no. It's nail foil. Amazon has a great selection

Those foils are generally very cheap. She was trying out the best ways to use them/clean the back off and didn't even use that much of the foil. I enjoyed the look, thanks for another great video! :)

[@c.s.3560]

I agree. The best nail tech ever and having to deal with these ridiculous comments is ASTOUNDING. It's foil, not sheets of 24 karat gold. I would give almost anything for Suzi to do my nails! You know your successful when you start getting hate comments from trolls. Sad.

[@lanakeskisaari8409]

Hi Suzie, I have been using foils for years hun and just use cheap foil glue... never have trouble x Oh and i spray the wipe instead and then you get no over-spray x

[@emilyr5442]

the fact that the name of the polish was- keeping suzi at bay...... i lost it folks

"Woooooooh!" 😂 I love shiny things to camera man!! My favourite colours is blue as well i love the design and I love you too Suzie!! 😄😘💙

[@artemis2375]

Look at all these nail foil experts coming out thinking they know what goes behind the camera and personally know Suzie and Dawn 🤔 Stop being nasty to the most sweetest person ever. Stop acting entitled and appreciate the hard work the suzie did for this tutorial.

[@jetson10100]

I've been using foils for over 30 years and this is the first time I've ever seen anyone use them without the foil glue you're supposed to use, makes it very easy.

[@morganmcclure5001]

Oh my god! I got a whole bunch of nail foils for Christmas the year before last, but didn't get any foil glue so they've been sitting doing nothing. Now I can finally use them! Thank you Suzie! I can now have the foil nails of my dreams.

[@sierraarellano5436]

Depending if you use gel polish and what brand you don't need glue. I use CND Shellac and all I do is stick it on after the second coat of color before the top coat. Its still sticky from curing so it just goes right on. I've never seen the foils you have to spray with alcohol first.

[@Girlwithadeathnote]

That's true, they come in many colors. White is just my favorite.

[@firebug_shevmac8711]

Love this idea

[@Leanne_w]

It just reminded me of my Australian blue opal that I’ve got. I think maybe a rose gold mixed with the green on a white base would look great and would look even more like an opal 😍

[@DanteVelasquez]

so pretty. Makes me miss summer.

I love your videos. I'm very depressed and spend a lot of time just... in bed. So this is a nice, calm thing to watch. Thank you so much

[@linz7833]

she was trying it for the first time! no ones perfect from the very start (: im sure her friend wouldnt have lent them to her if she really minded that she was using the foils so no need to worry.

[@jwbirdlover]

the yellow gay please tell that to a kitty above harshed on me for mentioning Suzie is a nail foil virgin..oh my the hate I got back!! I deleted my original comment from so much hate.. Heck I'd be using the pieces latter.. no need while taping to use every bit up... Susie isn't needing to be cheap like me lol... she has access to loads of stuff!! She did a great job I think..

[@rubyreyes5992]

Thank you Suzzie for this video. I love all of them. It’s nice to see you how you share with us. Happy weekend 💕💕

[@xxcrazylukexx]

Suddenly everyones a foiling expert. For all we know Dawn said she doesn't use these foil that much anymore so Suzie can use however much she wants. People need to pipe down and get off their high horses.

[@lnuma92]

SOPitchy No kidding. All of a sudden people are judging just because she takes a different approach to how everyone else has done different trends. This video is ONE way to use foils. She never said it was the standard. 😫

[@ladylotusinc]

All I know is they better leave my Suzie alone! She's perfection and doesn't get involved with drama or give in to the usual KZbin chasing View's out of desperation. She is successful for a reason...

WHEN DID HATERS START FLOODING MY SUIZE CHANNEL??? 😱take your negativity elsewhere

[@nailth0t]

The Ship That Carries Taeny I knoowwww. They came out of nowhere. The comments were so peaceful until the dual form video

[@lifeofapandaa6429]

Those people asking why she doesn't know how to nail foil despite being in the industry, wasting materials or wouldn't let her borrow their stuff. Let me remind you...she got the income and business to buy more. If she's going to use more to get the perfect result that her client is going to be happy with, I don't see what's wrong with that. Besides, where did all the haters come from? Used to be a nice community...if you don't like the videos, watch some other channels that makes you happy.

[@aussiemummy2676]

If you listened to Suzie you would have heard her say “these ones were kinda separate” meaning Suzie got them already messed up. Don’t listen to the negative comments Suzie, this set looks awesome, your the professional you know what your doing. I’d like to see some of the KZbin channels of all the haters “oh wait, They don’t have youtube Chanel’s.” They just want 10 seconds of fame..... Thanks for sharing another great tutorial with us. 🌸💕🌸

[@kinderbomb]

I agree that the hate is stupid, but having or not having a youtube channel is irrelevant to anything....

[@NicoleET88]

But she took the rainbow-ish one OUT of a tube and didn't put it back in. This will bother me for the rest of the video. (I love her! But I had to comment because that's what KZbin is for....)

[@lnuma92]

NicoleET88 Why does that MATTER though? We don't know if she properly put everything back in their proper spots. She probably did that off camera, so who are *we* to judge?

[@NicoleET88]

lnuma92 I'm not judging and I'm not saying she didn't put everything away when she was finished... It just aggravated a little piece of OCD within me to see her take it out and not put it back after commenting on how difficult it is. Why does this make you so upset? That's the real question.

[@lnuma92]

NicoleET88 Not upset though. It was a genuine question. Wasn't intending to sound upset. 😐

[@theGhostWolfe]

Suzie is such an amazing font of positivity and encouragement. If only some of the negative commenters had asked themselves “what would Suzie say?” before posting!

[@cynthiaslater7445]

I recently subscribed to this channel. I have a nerve condition that hurts whenever someone touches me. So, I do my own nails and I like the tips and tricks the pros show to use the products. I have learned a lot since watching Suzie's videos. Some techniques like the foil really look fun and easy. My manicures look so much better. Thank you for sharing these and I look forward to seeing more.

[@blueclarity]

There are different techniques. Different foils, polishes, gels, glues... What I love about nail artistry is that sometimes I feel like a mad scientist, conducting experiments. Sometimes things work out exactly like I planned and often they do not. But I figure it out. Just because someone suggests how to do it different does not mean that they are putting anyone or any particular method down. AND just because someone does it different than you doesn't mean they are wrong. This is supposed to be fun people and lately the behavior and assumptions I've seen in the comments is anything but. We are a community of nail enthusiasts...let's remember why we are here = because we love nail artistry. Get over all this other petty stuff because it's bringing such negativity to such a beautiful thing!!

Sophia Barnard True, but it's not our job to passive-aggressively force our opinions and desires either which is what a lot of people are doing recently on Suzie's videos. 😞

[@viewetteer2005]

Sophia Barnard so discuss your ideas and thoughts objectively rather than admonishing Suzie for her practices that may not line up someone else’s.

[@starrm780]

no one (that i've seen) are pretending to be experts, they are just pointing out the obvious. She wasted a lot of someone else's foil. But maybe we are seeing different commenters. Also, its not wrong for people to give suggestions

Guys , the foil still applied . If you want to see a foil expert , go to Robin Moses' channel . This is titled *FUN* with Nail Foils . Stop with the annoying "where's the foil glue" ? She tried out nail foils the way she did & it still worked .

[@Tata-iu3fy]

Jewelzbabiii why does everyone keep telling people to go to other nail channels if they want to see it done properly? Why do people feel it's even appropriate to do so. It's flat out rude!!!

[@rayasunshineee2688]

Miss B, probably bc even though Suzie is an amazing nail tech, she's not a "foil expert". so when people are constantly complaining about her foiling, they can simply go watch someone who is more experienced with this technique.

[@Tata-iu3fy]

RayaSunshineee it's still rude. She didn't do bad. She wanted a patchy look. People are just mad because she used a different technique. Everyone already knows that there are other videos out there to watch.

[@rayasunshineee2688]

Miss B, i understand what kind of look she wanted, and also never said that she did poorly. i personally love Suzie & her videos, i just wanted to answer your question. i think it's a shame how much hate this video has gotten over some differences in techniques.

[@Tata-iu3fy]

I love the foil with colored flowers. I have problems finding a good foil glue though, hence my presence here today.

[@JudgmentDayIsComming]

Not all foils are made equal either (f.y.i) quality varies VERY much

[@lamar1822]

I do a LOT of transfer foil nails. I’ve found that OPI isn’t as good for sticking the foil to. Gel lacquers that are part polish work the best ie CND SHELLAC. With them you don’t have to do the step of spraying the alcohol on the foil. Also working with smaller squares of foil helps with controlling where you want to put it.

[@ashleybellerose7104]

I just realized I was never subscribed to you and you are the one who taught me so much about nails! I am now subscribed. I use you techniques all the time when working on my clients. Also the red green yellow and black reminds me of Jamaica

[@tenlittlecanvases]

Hi Suzie, Love your videos and love this foiled set. The blue and green are a fantastic combo! I know after working with gel polishes for years and foiling over them that not every polish will have the best sticky layer for transferring...some tacky layers are just too 'slippery'...you can try waiting a couple of minutes once out of the lamp for the nail to cool and the inhibition to get a little tackier and there are foiling gels that cure very tacky that are great for transferring. I love Moyra Magic Foil...it's super thin, releases effortlessly and doesn't have the funky backing that needs to be wiped off. And before anyone flames me, I'm definitely not knocking Suzie's technique, just passing on a few tips I learned over the years with my own experimenting and experience. Love ya Suzie, always a fan! 😊

Hi suzi, I love your videos! Can you try to make a full foil design? I tried so hard to make it work. I tried wooden glue, special foil glue and a bunch of other things but I can't get the foil as a full cover. LG Sonja

[@5MinuteNailArt]

Through trial and error the best way I have found is - apply foil glue and let dry completely (I wait about 10 minutes) Take your foil strip and lay it over the head of a jelly stamper with the application side up - pull the strip taut but not tight and then press down onto the nail releasing the foil as you cover the nail fully but with the foil still on the nail. Finish pressing the foil around the edges and cuticle (I use my fingers and it works but a cotton swab does too) and then gently remove the foil strip from your nail. Almost no creasing this way as well which I have a great deal of trouble with since my nails are very very curved. I'm not a professional but this is the way I have found that works the best. Good luck.

[@sonidachin]

Thanks I'll try it

[@jwbirdlover]

K.A. Metcafe thanks for the good info.. I've not used these before just got my first set in the other day and was curious as to a good method!! Thanks from me too!!! I have a question about her wiping the back off..how do u know if it need to?? So far I only have clear/translucent types

[@blueclarity]

Have you tried allowing the foil glue to dry for 10 to 15 min AND wiping the back of the foil like Susie did. Sometimes that backing film can be so thick and nasty.

[@honeybadgerzs]

K.A. Metcafe great tips xx also these foils can be used with topcoat. It’s the method I use on my neighbours daughter, her mum doesn’t want gel or glue on her but is ok about topcoat. It’s mostly the same as other methods just wait until the topcoat is almost dry (just a hint of tackiness left) press fairly firmly and whip of the foil. It’s much faster than glue. I don’t know how long it holds up though as generally it’s only on her for a night or two, over the weekend or for a party. I love the stamper idea so I’ll give that a go next time I use foils. Xx

[@Draculiana]

I like Moyra foil stamping polishes, you use them normal with a stamper and once the nail is stamped use a powder or foil . They stick great and i don't even remove the back with alcohol.

[@MsRquarles]

What would happen if you used a peel-off base coat before you put on acrylics? Can you put on a peel-off base coat on top of the acrylics?

[@lnuma92]

gamergirl 5522 If you love your nails, I wouldn't do it. The acrylic would need something to hold on to to say, and peel off base coat isn't made for to work with acrylic. And if really brand of acrylic system was use and it just so happens to bond, trying to force the acrylic off with probably cause you to rip your nail as well. Yes, I know Christine of SimplyNailogical did it with the dip powder system, but you have to keep 2 things in mind: by lucky attempt it worked, and she isn't a licensed professional so her advice wouldn't be the most note-worthy. Trend carefully and take care. 🙃

[@user-rq4qp9tf9n]

lnuma92 I have yet to see Cristine's video on that, actually. I don't normally do nails, but I like seeing how things turn out. Thank you for the advice!

[@Leanne_w]

What do you mean peel of base coat before acrylic? Do you mean building acrylic on the nail after you’ve put on the peel of base?

[@lnuma92]

Leanne Pretty much. Have seen and heard horror stories. Scary stuff. 😫

[@Leanne_w]

Inuma92, I was just confused about her question lol. I was wondering why someone would want to put a peel on base before acrylic. Lol

[@andrearosa6488]

I was wondering if u can do a video on how to keep gel polish from peeling off. Mine keeps peeling on me but I do what the steps say. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

[@lnuma92]

Andrea Poole Are you doing priper prep and Prime steps? Are you removing all oil and dust with alcohol? Are you removing all the dead skin from the surface of the nail? There's a lot of variable to why the gel peeled. Try being more descriptive. 🙂

[@andrearosa6488]

lnuma92 I am doing that, an it still peels off. Idk what I do wrong.

[@lnuma92]

Andrea Poole Is it peeling off at the back or front? If it's peeling from the back near the cuticle, it's a prepping issue. If it's from the front, you have to cap the free edge. It could even be faulty application. List all the steps you're doing so we can get to the root of the problem. 🤔

The layers of gel might be thick do really thin coats

[@phantomkate6]

Could it be the product? I've tried some iffy off-brand gel polishes that weren't so good.

[@lucygannon4991]

Foils can be temperamental, like Chrome. This looks beautiful Suzie and I was living for cameraman's reactions to the foils 😂❤

[@natalieannhamman8783]

Suzie, PLEASE do a geode inspired nail where you clear cap actual crystals into the design! That would look AMAZING! 💚

[@anastasiapurr7691]

Cmon people ITS FOIL LOL. Don’t blame Suzie for wasting, it’s her command to do what she wants.

[@shweeleigh1616]

Hmmm I've never seen anyone do foils like this...normally they have a glue that comes with it. You paint the glue on...it goes on almost blue and it dries clear..when it's dry you put it on your nail. I've never seen anyone wipe the back of them either...isnt that what helps it stick to the nail?? 🤔 Looks nice though...i just think it would have been a lot easier with the glue and without spraying the back but to each their own. ❤

[@dezinechic]

i was just about to ask this very question. know about the glue and ok the sticky layer from the gel substitutes but never knew about the wiping off of the back with alcohol, always thought the backing is what helped it stick. still very pretty though!

[@blueclarity]

That backing that she's wiping off keeps the foil from sticking better. It works so much better without it. Watch a few old school videos. Also applying it to gel that has a tacky layer brings a whole new twist to the game. Yes there is foil glue and there are gels that work without it.

[@shawnise311]

I was shocked at how much foil was wasted too. I literally cringed

[@christinaleister1387]

The backing is for shipping purposes so that the foil doesn't transfer on to itself during shipment, or while it's stored away in your drawer. Plus, during climate change the foil will go funky and the backing keeps it from going all caca.

[@kecola]

Most foils come ready to use but the ones with the brown backing have to be sprayed with alcohol to remove the backing first or else they won't stick.

[@RamyaVnkt]

Your nails look like jewels! I could wear that design as a pendant on a silver chain and it would look bomb!

[@beckyshakir6220]

I love them! I love working with foils. I love watching your videos too!

[@mermaidatlantica]

I dont think you need to remove the backing suzie, im pretty sure theyll apply fine without wiping the brown bit off..

[@ansleychan3490]

Beautiful in the end, but for it to work better you need to remove the sticky layer for gel and make sure the regular polish is dried. Then apply foil glue, which would transfer better.

[@kathykov1]

Ansley Chan Not really. Having a good sticky gel polish is the key. CND Shellac has the best sticky layer. The foil adhesive can be tricky if you don't apply it correctly.

[@ansleychan3490]

Kathy, there is no right or wrong way. I'm just giving Suzie an option. Maybe you like the gel polish way better, and I like the foul glue better. I'm just giving Suzie an idea so maybe it can be easier for her. So you can't say that I'm wrong.

[@Leanne_w]

If there’s no right or wrong way? Who are you to say how it should be done?

[@kathykov1]

Leanne I'm giving advice. Not telling anyone how to do this technique. I'm am a licensed nail tech who is experienced in applying foil. It's one of my favorite things to do. Trust me, I've got this down. Many gel polishes don't have a tacky enough layer for foil to stick. Was a suggestion.

[@kathykov1]

Ansley Chan We both gave suggestions. You'res was a different one than mine.

[@stefaniejohnson9420]

Her voice is so soothing 😩💕

[@danyg3764]

Suzie you’re literally an angel and the scene where you’re painting you’re nails seems out of a Wes Anderson’s movie

[@AnnaThompson222]

Do the cameraman’s nails

[@lelarobinson2854]

It works best with a foil adhesive than the inhibition layer of gel!

[@mihaelacroitoru9044]

thank you Miss Suzy.a hug from Italy.

[@ambermholt98]

Love that your camera man puts his input. Cute❤
