💅🏼How to do Dip Powder for Beginners ✨ Nail Tutorial ⚬ Dip Powder 101 📚✅

[@Lia-bl6oz]

Wowww thats a lot more steps than i was expecting! Little bit intimidating compared the the "single coat of nail polish and go" that i do at the moment..

[@Ihatesocmedia]

Yea my thots exactly or more like well F this then haha shoot

[@GabyG48]

That's what I like about dip nails that you can use your own natural nails. I'm glad you show the tip on how not to start with whole nail because I tend to get the cuticle area bulky and try to fix it with filing but it makes the nail thinner and if falls

[@teebee7879]

Got my starter kit yesterday and WOW!! I LOVE my nails!! For my first time, I did really well! My right hand is a little messy but I think I can fix my errors over time! Best investment I’ve made in regard to my nails to cut salon costs!!

[@Amber-yq9ee]

​@Anahata Sorry abt the 📚 up there. If u actually decide to read all of that, I apologize for the headache. If u take 1 look & are like HELL NO! I don't blame u 1bit! But let me know if u tried this brand of dip kits & how it worked for you pretty please! & Again Sorry! It's my toxic trait 💯%! Even as a kid my notes to my friends were PAGES!🤣 &My texts as an adult had to be broken N2 pieces so legit (no lie) my hubby & fam & friends wld get approx 30 dings or notifications for texts coming so when they'd hear Ding Ding Ding Ding rapidly they knew by like the 3rd ding that it was me w\o looking. Actually my Sis in Law (who's my FAV person on the planet EVER even over my hub!) was w\her new BF who later became her hubby & her phone dinged for a text & then again & again & she just kept talking & watching the movie. He was like are you gonna get that? It sounds like it's important. She said yeah I'll get it but that's Amber & her texts come in multiples up to 30 or more. So I wait until I get them all bc my phone doesn't put them in order. & He said how do you know it's Her u didn't even look? She said bc that's Amber. Nobody texts like her. Anybody else wld be 1 or 2. You'll figure it out once u meet her! 🤣🤣

Thank you for doing this series. As a person who constantly does their nails at home, I love ways I can do them quicker and more efficiently. I own this system and these videos are helping me get more valuable usage.

Thank you so much. I followed you thru your video and they look great!

[@sallyveenstra1981]

I just used this product. I never, ever do my own nails - and it didn’t turn out too badly (my left hand looks like a decent amateur attempt but my right hand *I’m right handed* looks more like a 3 year old did it) - but I’d offer these tips: After using step 3 activator/seal protect, take time to really clean up your nails with a thorough buffing to smooth the nail surface thoroughly to the point that it looks like a good matte finish that would be fine as is. I also ‘rinsed’ my nails with 70% isopropyl alcohol to clean up any dust or residue. Hopefully, it lasts for a little while but if it doesn’t... it’s not like I’m going anywhere and I’ll give it another shot.

[@dgraydon0001]

Thanks for the tips!❤

[@aleksandragurzovska7270]

How do you take it off? I've tried with nail drill, acetone and cotton and didn't came out. I was desperate 😂

[@lexilynch7265]

Hope everything is going well a thing I like to do is start left handed because we tend to start doing things using the right first so if you start with your left it could trick your brain so it’s easier

[@clarachlon3194]

Thanks! I think my top coat looks crummy on my first attempt due to the seal protect. Is it really ok to buff and use alcohol afterward, and right before top coat?

[@samryon3615]

Tyvm for the tips 🌸💐🌺

[@itsthemochis6737]

This is such a great tutorial especially for someone who has your kit. Even if we have the instructions to read and gide us it's always helpful to see it done in real because seeing the steps and the finished look is just a plus that helps us. Thank you so much

[@asmrglittercanopies2246]

So I ordered the dip powder starter kit and this tutorial is so helpful and this is really easy. The only thing is, the top coat is basically like nail glue which is why she said to wipe it off with a lint free wipe. idk where to get those so I used an alcohol pad but it was still too late because the brush had already started to get clumpy. luckily they give you extra brush tips with the kit so that you can switch them out.and maybe you can try to dip it in the brush saver before its too late but I didn't really know what that was for of course until it was too late. so really just be careful with the top coat and you'll be fine, my nails came out really well for my first time doing this. it got a little messy but im sure that will get better over time with more practice

[@P3ach3s70]

I found some lint free nail wipes on Amazon. I've just discovered dip colors at a nail salon and absolutely love how my nails have grown with them! I just purchased my started kit and can't wait to try it!

[@maisha5401]

That moment is sooo satisfying when she dips the nail into the nail powder 🤩

@@Cataclysmika That's so awesome! I have on a gorgeous color (OPI Black Cherry Chutney - it's a very vampy dark reddish brown/nearly black) now that I got done at a shop and so hope to be able to do on myself so I don't have to go any more. What's a good color that I can do that won't show up too much if I mess up in the early learning stages?

[@Cataclysmika]

@@kcnnanna ooo that sounds like a super beautiful color! You can always go for a lighter sort of nude pink or even clear, that way you could focus on the process of it! Personally I love the look of white too :)

[@vixen200008]

Be careful with the cuticle oil afterwards because I found if you overuse it and rub it in really well and don't wash your hands afterwards it will cause lifting

[@KiaraSkyNails]

Good tip Bestie! 💕

[@kristyollila9618]

ahhhhh that was my next question cause i was wondering if i was doing something wrong. my nails seem to lift after a week..grrrrrr i was thinking i was doing something wrong. thank you for the great tip

[@dawnsanders6505]

I have a kit that does not include the clear dip powder. Is that absolutely necessary if you want to apply a gel color on top? Please advise and thanks!! Wonderful tutorial.

[@fewofmyfavoritethings]

Hi! Is it possible to put regular nail polish on the dip powder nails and then remove with non-acetone remover and switch to another color without damaging the dip-nail?

For beginners, the hand I started with was very Cakey and had a heavy build up, so on my other hand I used a brush to dap the powder instead of deeping then fill it down. Came out perfect cause you can control the pill up. Otherwise, thanks. Love it👌

[@jjelizalde1215]

Question: how do you prevent the nail from becoming gummy after you activate it? I have this problem constantly that the color literally becomes a gum and just files completely off

[@KiaraSkyNails]

You layers might be too thick so your base might not be drying prior to activating. 🧐 Please contact customer support and they can help figure out what the issue is. [e-mail]

[@MrTortolos]

Me!!! this happens so much times

[@TheBadovic1]

What do you recommend for doing at home, dipping powder or polygel? And what is better for putting on your own nails, not extensions?

[@KiaraSkyNails]

Dip Powder definitely has less of a learning curve for beginners as the way you apply the glazes is similar to how you'd apply nail polish. 💅🏻

[@piggiesparadise1991]

Looks so easy but results are amazing. Can't wait to try 😍

[@meecheongkim3980]

After shaping and applying the activator, how ling can I leave it before apply the top coat? Or should I apply the top right away?

[@racquelb.poetry]

This looks sooo much easier as my nails are growing more and I'm looking of ways to retain my lenght so that they can keep growing. This video just gave me a better idea! ❤❤❤

[@MT-uo3lq]

To retain your length stay away from hand sanitizers and grocery store cart wipes! These have high alcohol contents and will peel/break your nails. They will be so brittle. Also, try to not have your hands in water a lot. Like wear gloves when washing dishes, clothes and when you shampoo your hair. Sally's sells gloves for $3.00 for shampooing. When removing regular nail polish (use those without formaldehyde) do not use acetone polish remover. Instead use gentle ones like the one by Ella + mila...Hope this helps. 😁

Thank you babe! ❤️

[@anaisetco]

3:02 Do you tap and brush off the excess of the clear powder after the first application or just put the base and clear once again without brushing before steps?

[@krissy06k]

Always brush after dipping

[@raw_oyster]

Question Do you use the brush directly, on all clients, as shown in the video? Just wondering, as I've never been to a nail salon.

[@KiaraSkyNails]

Yes. However it's important that the client and nail tech wash and sanitize their hands at every appointment. 💕

[@jacksontabaso]

THANK YOU for sharing this information! I just bought the Kiara Sky starter kit today and I can't wait to try it! I usually go to a nail salon for this, but lately my nails have been breaking because the application near the tip of my nail is so thin. I figure I could save money and do it myself....less likely to be extremely upset if they break, It would be my fault if they did instead of someone who was paid to do them.

I’m having a problem with the cuticle area. Do you go around the cuticle area with an E file? My cuticle area never looks clean and rounded. I’m not a professional just trying this kit at home but I’m struggling.

[@lindamoua9976]

MsTequilaSheila you can use the E file or hand file to go over it.

Hi Besties! Yes Linda was right. We go around with either an E file or a hand file over the cuticle area to round it out. 💅🏻

[@lisawoolard]

I struggle with this too. I have probably watched over 100 videos on how to do this. And I will still get lifting and cuticles that aren’t smooth. I know I’m prepping right too. But I also used to have trouble with acrylic lifting when I’d get them done at the salon. 😭 maybe my nails just aren’t good for product 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@KiaraSkyNails When I use the hand file around my cuticle it tears them up. I have tried to avoid getting too close but to file, shape and buff, it just doesn't seem to work for me.

All Ginger to Me maybe you didnt let it dry properly between coats.

Hey Babe! 💕Be sure that your top coat brush is clean. And make sure that after the second coat of seal protect you take a lint free wipe and really rub the nail with it to pick up any excess product. If there's any seal protect left on the surface of the nail, you'll have issues with the top coat. 💅🏻

Really hoping that you answer me and reach out I’ve even emailed the company and I followed every step of this video I’ve watched it 1000 times I’ve watched every single video that’s out there with dipping powder and when it comes to putting the topcoat my nails are never Ever shiny they’re very Dull and not shiny or glossy so what am I doing wrong! Help!

[@michellestilt7047]

I had that happen once when I didn’t use the seal protect after the color.

[@nicolejones5110]

Mine too and I follow all steps.

I love kiara sky it’s the best I love 💗 the way the numbers are on the bottles yes it did make it easier the only thing was I saw u applying the 3/4 two x each I have always used it 1 x only and they still came out great but I am going to try it like you did it to see if and see a difference thanks for extra tips I appreciate your help in getting a perfect set 😊

[@jackelineinteriano2959]

if we remove the shine, wouldn't that mean we are making the nail thinner? does anyone know?

[@undeadunicorn7461]

Yeah, it's making your nails thinner and weaker. If you go to simply nailogical she has a video about how to keep your nails healthy and make your nails stronger.

Thank you for your video, can’t wait to use your advice! Are the lint free wipes dry? Or do they have alcohol ? Where can I purchase them ? Excited
