I Tried Nailboo | Dip Powder Tutorial | Salon Quality Nails at Home

In this video I am testing out a dip powder by Nailboo. This tutorial and review will feature the dip powder named Date Night. The pro set is shown in the video comes with six dip powders.
Thanks to the craziness of 2020, I have not been able to visit my manicurist, so I decided to give this company a try and see if the results are similar to the gel nails I normally get.
I hope you enjoy this dip powder tutorial. Let me know if you have tried the dip powder by Nailboo and how you feel about it.
Again, I ordered and paid for the product myself, but I was given a link for anyone that would like to save $10 on their order.

came across this while looking for honest reviews of Nailboo. just wanted to say that after watching another review, there was a couple of tips. One was to clean the bottle necks with some acetone or alcohol before screwing back closed. another was to have a paper towel to just wipe the brush across when applying the first layer of top coat on so as to prevent ANY of the activator from getting into the top coat bottle. It was stated that if this occurs, it could thicken and harden the top coat liquid as well as stiffening the brush resulting in it not fanning out as well when applying product to the nail. LOVED this review out of all I've seen. Very detailed. Thanks for doing what you do.

[@AloftAloft]

Thank you and yes those tips are very helpful especially when others read through the comment. I do those things now, but I didn’t know about them at the time of filming.

[@annetaylor527]

Will you explain what you meant by using a paper towel to wipe the brush across when applying the first layer of top coat? Do you mean before and after each mail? I haven’t done by first set yet, and honestly, I’m so intimidated!

[@AloftAloft]

@@annetaylor527 Don't be intimidated. It sounds more complicated than it really is. We use the paper towel to wipe off any residue/dip that is on the bristles. It's more for the second or third dip instead of the first dip. Using this red powder as an example, when dipping into the jar for the second coat, if I noticed the brush was red after I applied a layer of base on top of the red powder then I would wipe the brush on the paper towel before putting the brush back into the bottle to prevent contamination. This also applies to the activator bottle and when using glitters.

[@annetaylor527]

@@AloftAloft - okay, thank you for clarifying! I watched more of your videos which helped!

[@AloftAloft]

You’re welcome and I’m happy to hear that. Thank you 😊

[@KathrynRose1342]

I've used this set 4 or 5 times, but my best set has been after watching your tutorial! I swear I didn't know half of these steps, and the advice to get a third-party buffer is a game-changer. Thanks so much!

[@AloftAloft]

You're welcome! I am happy it helped you 😊

[@marmz9286]

How long did they last?

[@AloftAloft]

@@marmz9286 I kept this set on for two weeks before I decided to remove them. But I only took them off because I wanted to cut them shorter. Otherwise they probably would have lasted 3 weeks easily. I have a video removing this set after 2 weeks if you want to see how they looked at that point.

[@christinaluntzer3299]

Thankful that I watched this tutorial and your reapply before cracking open my set. Some amazing tips for lifelong success! Subscriber for life! Thank you!

[@ef366]

I'm glad you showed the whole process! The ad on IG makes it look like it really is only 3 steps but I knew there was more to it. TIA!

[@AloftAloft]

Yes, there are definitely more steps. You can probably do it in 3 steps, but it would be so thin that it wouldn’t last as long and would chip very easily

[@kimbratten6285]

Yeah they leave off the top coat.

[@alyamcvay9831]

I think by 3 steps they just ment there were 3 polishes

Im assuming they do that to sell the product. Lol

Your natural nails are so pretty. I wouldn’t put anything on them except maybe clear polish if mine looked like it that 😍

[@AloftAloft]

Thank you! For a while I would only wear clear polish but unfortunately polish peels after a few days, so I converted to gel nails and now dip powder.

@@AloftAloft Hi Aloft I didn’t know how else to tag you but can you PLEASE PLEASE link the sander/buffer kit you bought??? My first set just turned out horridly and my Nailboo nail file looks worse than yours (even though we both only used once). ALSO I didn’t get an instruction book in mine, so I had to learn from their website tutorials and they never mentioned the alcohol step there!!!!! HOPE YOU SEE THIS AND CAN LINK THE SANDER KIT YOU BOUGHT!!!!

[@AloftAloft]

Thank you! And yes, I do have a removal video on my channel as well. I uploaded the removal process with nail clips and also the baggie method. I personally prefer the baggie method. It’s so much easier, cleaner and faster. Here’s the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYKmlpuui5lsfKc

As a 30 year Nail Teck, I just watched your video. You did a very concise demo of the Nailboo product. And I’m very happy with the results. I will be using this product, thanks to you. I am not a fan of the 4 way file. Thank you.

[@sarahepton1523]

Hey thank you!!!!!!!! I was freaking out because I just followed that little instruction book and my nails came out looking like they were done by a drunk toddler who missed naptime and thought I was gonna steal his daddy. And I'm not a pro- that's why I usually go to the pros- but I can slap on a decent manicure that'll do in dim light. This was something else though... and I was like, is it me or did Paris goddamned Hilton just convince me to buy a bad product? I feel calmer after your video. It looks like it's more of a time commitment than I thought I was signing up for, but it looks doable, and you have so many tips not even on the website. Thank you! I will succeed!

[@drenee1416]

🤣🤣

[@AloftAloft]

Oh my! You are hilarious 😂 I am happy my video helped. Now we can put that toddler to bed asap and tell Paris to sit down 😆 the main thing is not to rush through it and apply light/thin coats of liquid so you don’t flood your cuticle area

Agreed on the 4-way file being terrible - thanks for linking your buffer set. Just bought that too!

Nice tutorial, I have to agree with your impressions of the file, the worst I’ve ever used. I’m not sure if you noticed but top and base are the exact same product, they contain the same exact ingredients. I had such a hard time with opening the bottles myself too, what a pain however, I’ve been using step 4, the cleaner bottle to clean the brushes, always need to remember to clean the bottles with acetone to prevent the gunkiness hardening and making it almost impossible to open the bottles.

I bought this and used it once so far, (not much time on my hands)... I'm not a pro with doing my own nails unless they are press-on nails but this wasn't bad for my first try.

You are so welcome! I am happy to hear it worked out for you. Now you’re going to be hooked 😆

[@michelleodell4118]

Nailboo didn't send my instructions! Your tutorial is amazing! Thanks so much!

[@AloftAloft]

Oh no, that’s disappointing! But you’re welcome and I’m happy this was helpful 😊

@Michelle O'Dell Me either! I'm so glad I found this video!

[@iiamtherealkey]

You just saved me some money, great video.

[@AloftAloft]

I am happy to hear it! 😃 I added a link in the description box that gives you $10 off your purchase too.

[@taylorlt0806]

Thank you for this wonderful review. I have been curious. Thank you for being so honest in regards to how much work is involved. Your nails look great!

[@heatherpittore8556]

Getting ready to do this the second time, was nervous again til your video. You make it look easy so I’m excited and not nervous anymore. 2nd time will look better :) thanks again!!

[@AloftAloft]

So glad I could help... my second set was much better too so I know yours will turn out great!

[@samantharicher7298]

I just ordered a kit and this makes me feel more at ease! Thank you! Do you know if all kits come with the build up powder?

[@AloftAloft]

That is great! Yes, all kits come with the build powder.

[@shamelessstacib7351]

I love Nailboo, and DateNight is in the mail as I type! I got a sparkly pink that turned out to be more of a sparkly coral the first time around, but the more you buy, the more of a discount they give you 😁

[@Kshais]

Does it really last that long?

[@Kshais]

As long as they claim it to last?

[@brc4cats]

I just got date night and it is a beautiful red.

[@AloftAloft]

@@Kshais my first set lasted 3 weeks. I kept this set on for 2 weeks, but I’m sure it could have lasted longer. I only removed them because I was ready to cut my nails shorter. I actually posted a soak off/take off video of this set as well when it was 2 weeks old. Here’s the link if you want to see it.

[@shamelessstacib7351]

I did figure out you can fix mistakes if you do one whole hand but don't apply the activator. Then if you have peaks of overbuild or covered cuticles, you can easily file it off THEN I apply the activator. I keep playing with this stuff and getting new colors, so I have yet to keep it on longer than a week, but I did put it on my daughter's nails when I got my starter set, and she still has it here about 6-7 weeks later. We're doing her new ones tomorrow. I bought the Onyx soak off and pour it into a Ziploc, then work it off with my fingertips. Takes about 5 minutes per hand 👌🏻

[@kristadavies3762]

Just got my first kit! Thanks for this. It makes it so much easier to try.

[@robertacastor7854]

Thank you for such an clear and honest review. Just purchased nail boo to try with my daughter.

[@aliciaking8567]

I also have Nailboo and I love it. I will say that I agree with you on the nail file that comes with it. Also, you have to be careful when applying the base coat. You want to make sure that it dries some before dipping a 2nd or 3rd time because if not, the nail begins to look deformed and then you will have to file it down and reshape it more. Overall, I think it is a great kit to have. The one complaint I have is how the top coat and base coat dries when you put the lids back on because if you aren't careful, you won't be able to get it off for future use. I speak from experience and unfortunately, I had to throw mine away and order more. Loved the review! It was definitely accurate. :)

[@emilyvanbuskirk747]

I wondered if I can purchase a base under Sally or other brand because I couldn’t open the base it was stuck.

[@anneball9775]

You have beautiful natural nails. And you did a great job with the tutorial. I really appreciate this! I really want to try it, but I can see where I wouldn’t be too happy with the outcome. I’d have the same issue I have with the stick on nail polish. And my natural nails are not perfectly shaped like yours!

[@AloftAloft]

Anne, you don’t have to have great nail shape to make this work. If you already like the way your nails look painted then I think you will like this too. And trust me, my nails are not always in this condition 😆

[@TheGigiVision]

Thank you for this step by step tutorial! I have been thinking for a long time to try this product. I might give it a go after seeing this...your nails look great!

[@michelleshaker7806]

Just purchased, now when I get the kit, I’ll know exactly what to do to make my nails look awesome like yours!!! Thank you!!!

[@AloftAloft]

Great! Also check out my Helpful Tips video. It's similar to this one, but I give a few more tips than this one.

[@michelleshaker7806]

@@AloftAloft defiantly will😍

[@KailaMarchese]

This was awesome content! Thank you so much for the review and showing everything clearly :) just got my kit in the mail today!!!!

[@AloftAloft]

You're welcome! Be sure to wipe off any/all residue before twisting the top coat closed or else you may not be able to open it next time.

[@iamnickitv]

I actually liked this video, it was so satisfying...

[@AloftAloft]

Thank you so much 😊

[@Kshais]

It honestly was.

[@traciecarter5248]

I’m glad you showed how to apply because I’m waiting on my shipment as I speak. Thanks again ❤

[@kathleenmccoy-keys1886]

I am happy to actually see how this is done as opposed to having to read the small slip of papee enclosed with the packet. Great job!!

[@funnytiktoksz7598]

Your nails are honestly perfect wthh!! So luckyyy. Mines are so brittle

[@AloftAloft]

Awe, thank you 😊

[@annacalhoun151]

Right?? That SHAPE *swoon*

[@dancebaby122]

Your natural nails are amazing. How do you keep them so long and pretty?😍

[@AloftAloft]

Thank you! I honestly don't do much except file them often. My manicurist (pre-corona) always asked if I took vitamins or did anything between appointments because my nails grow so fast. But my answer is no, I don't take vitamins or do anything special to them, sorry Sarah.

[@jamiegrandinetti1588]

I'm glad you showed the entire process. Mine didn't come with the Build Powder and I didn't realize it until it was too late. My nails were a little bumpy (which is probably why). I will know better the next time I do my nails. Thank you again.

[@alycynk1104]

So far I like it. I've only done one nail just to test out the product but it was really simple & the coverage was great.

[@dianadiaz3358]

Great video tutorial! Where did you get your buffer/file set?

[@AloftAloft]

I purchased it from Amazon. This one has 5 buffers and maybe 5 files but they have smaller sets too

[@mikaela2013]

Love this! Can you do a video on how you prepare your nails before you do them? They’re so clean and nice before you even get started. My main issue is prep. Pleaaaaase post a video or at least explain! Thank you :)

[@AloftAloft]

Yes, I can definitely do a video on that. But the easiest explanation is, I use a 4 way buffer. The one that has the smooth, shine and buff sides. I use a regular file too (for shaping) but the buffer makes my nails look the best.

[@devin4796]

Such a cute color on you! I have some of this. I'm going to try it out this weekend. Thanks for sharing.

[@gingermitchell5888]

Just got mine today and find that your tutorial is so much better than what they provide. Here’s hoping my first attempt works!

[@KimberLaws-Lawson]

I’m actually doing my nails with this set while watching this. Like you, I can’t stand the Emory board. Def not a fan. So far, so good though

[@cynthiaarmijos545]

A lot more work than I had hoped but they look good. A little thick for me but that’s just personal preference. Thank you!

[@AloftAloft]

I like to double dip the colors but a single dips works just as well. I did a single dip with a lighter color last week which turned out good too

[@reneearriaga7485]

I have used this product twice now and even on my first time my nails came out really great. I was amazed that I could do such a good job!
