My secret at painting with my off-hand is to fail a lot until you eventually get better, lol. I think Cristine's advice is more helpful! Also one tiny thing that could actually help, when painting all 10 fingers, I do my other hand first because I have more patience and attention at the beginning.

[@lrizzard]

i do the same but because when i paint my nails freshly i do that weird 💅 i just freshly painted my nails grip which makes everything harder

[@jillian4473]

I start with my other hand first too

[@allyrose6437]

That's a great idea, get the hardest part over with first!

[@FrancesBaconandEggs]

Same!!! Honestly, just taking longer and practicing are the boring way I got better at painting my Other Hand.

[@alex-kc9rd]

I’m so pleased you take the time to make these highlight clips, I wouldn’t be able to enjoy your streams without them and it always brings me such joy to see your content :D

[@izzybeth]

same, I'm not really a stream person (plus the chat gives me anxiety) so these highlight videos are great

[@JessNV]

TBH, I miss the planned videos. Streams are too slow paced and these clips are great, but all the chat text feels too distracting, and they just aren’t as creative. I know planned vids take longer to prep, edit, etc…. I just miss it.

[@lizalove91]

Same!

[@holo.enthusiast]

She has video editors who make the highlight vids for her👌🏼

If you check the description you’ll see the link to her stream editor for the highlight videos!

[@he11worm]

fun fact, there is a fourth catagory for handedness - mixed-handed! it's sorta like ambidextrous, but you can do certain things well with one hand (write with your right hand, etc) and other things well with the other hand. So which hand is your dominant hand depends on the activity. My brother is mixed-handed :)

[@ap-nyc]

🌈 🎶The more you know🎶🌈 Thanks for sharing! I had no idea. ☺️

[@riverAmazonNZ]

This is me! I didn’t know there was a term for it!

[@stannetaprospere4301]

This happened to me kind of by accident or because of trauma. (I'll figure it out in therapy) I was initially left-handed, but my teachers insisted I write with my right hand. I had no other choice at school. So now I write pretty horribly with my right hand and I do everything else with my left. I didn't notice until a friend pointed it out. Apparently right-handed people just don't brush their teeth with their left hand🤔

[@kristinhoward5077]

Yes! I grew up without a word for what I was, so I just say right-handed because I write only with my right hand and the left feels unnatural, which seem to be the determining factor for classification. But I naturally did a lot of things with my left hand, favored my left in all sports, and other than writing, I unconsciously switch which hand or side I'm using mid task or activity if it's convenient. I didn't even notice until it was pointed out to me in elementary school. Regardless, I've always said I'm right handed (sometimes with a shrug and quick explanation of my weird switchiness in some things)

[@Call-me-Al]

I have heard mixed handedness is very common in autists. Which I have and am, so that's amusing

[@terrielemaire5884]

As soon as I heard you talk about anchoring your painting hand, I was like "fulcruming"! In dental it is hugely important to fulcrum "place a fingertip on something solid (tooth) close to the work area" because the tools we use can be sharp and you want to be as stable as possible. 👍 Excellent tips.

[@arielerbil5207]

Fellow dh spotted

[@daphenewoods5617]

I thought the same🤣

[@darkstar2874]

Ohhh thaaaats why dentists do that! Huh, that makes a lot of sense.

[@ellahopkinson]

Ahh this is like what artists do when painting too, you learn something new every day

[@erinwhite8456]

I see makeup artists do this when they apply eyeliner!

[@lovestolaugh]

I thought a 17 minute video was a bit long for painting the opposite hand...but she has a way of making that journey entertaining. But now my phone is like 3% and it's time for bed! Night y'all!

[@countessa222]

I’m left handed I feel Ike I have to be slightly ambidextrous to exist in the world 😅 I just practiced until I could paint both hands but I also went to beauty school for a little bit and doing manicures and stuff helps with like muscle memory or something idk 😂 it helped me become more confident in my ability to make nail polish look pretty lol

[@countessa222]

I draw with both hands sometimes and I can write short words but I don’t like how the pen feels in my right hand lol

[@angieemm]

Same. I'm surprised so many people have a hard time painting their non-dominant hand but I guess people like us have learned to adapt a bit better. I only write and use eating utensils with my left hand because the world was made for right-handed people.

[@countessa222]

@@angieemm yes that is so true I remember trying to figure out scissors in kindergarten and then I was like ya know what I’m just gonna make my hand work lol

[@ri589]

Fellow leftie. So true. There are certain things I just had to learn how to do with my ~oThEr~ hand. lol

[@octowuss1118]

Same. We all know that being a lefty kid is harder than being a righty kid, but nobody ever mentions that a lefty adult is cooler than being a righty adult bc you can do so many things well with either hand.

[@alona270]

This has old simply vibes. I missed Cristine teaching us nail hacks hahaha

[@nexusSix_237]

I thought she quit KZbin? When did she make a return!? 😮

[@redkite_]

painting nails is actually a really good physio exercise. helped my coordination loss in my right hand

Are you a surgeon tho

[@sourgreendolly7685]

Imagine learning your years of medical training and life are a lie from a nail painting video 😂

[@kathyzhang4652]

Going full circle back to nail art lessons is so poetic and satisfying to me - idk how to explain how I feel, but I'm in full support of a 200-300 series 😍😍

[@CreativeHappiness]

My biggest hack for painting with my non dominant hand is to paint my dominant hand first. Because then when I go to paint my other hand I’m less likely to smudge because I can control that hand better and by painting one hand fully before starting the second it’s already in its way to drying.

[@lakshitasaini2188]

I never knew i could take a nail lesson more seriously than my final exams.

[@kimberlypollard6025]

Why would u say this to cristine she will be so sad

[@kimberlypollard6025]

Cristines extremely vocal about her support for and personal dedication to education lmao she has a university scholarship in her name specifically for people who are able to prioritize their education while pursuing an artistic endeavor I was also kidding but that’s why I said it lmao

[@Zepda1001]

THIS is learning for LIFE (my teachers always said "you're not learning for school, you're learning for life"...)

[@lestranged]

0:35 She said your "other hand" is your non-dominant hand. But wouldn't it be your dominant hand that is the hardest to paint since you are using your non- dominant hand to paint your dominant hand? So for example I am right handed. I paint best with my right hand so my left hand's nails always look the best. That makes my right hand (dominant hand) my "other hand" i.e. the crappy looking one.

[@lrizzard]

i think its because she changed the sentence mid-sentence, and also phrased it weird. i thought she said the opposite hand as synonimous for non-dominant, and then went on to explain that her "other hand" is the one she paints with non-dominant, i.e. her other hand is the dominant hand 😂 she took a detour while explaining it though

[@lusitanianightshade227]

I've got painting my other hand down pretty well considering I apply artificial nails (gel, acrylic) on my other hand too... You either get real good at it or deal with bumpy, crooked nails on one hand 😆

[@Le_Cube]

Das me. I accept the bad OtherHand always 😂

[@cozyandsnug]

Hahahahah ditto!

[@Fiona2254]

Same here! Learning to give my nails gel overlays has helped my polish game.

[@Nurylon]

When I first started painting my nails, I was actually way better at painting with my "non-dominant" hand (I'm mixed handed so the term feels silly but whatevs) because I have *horrible* grip posture in my dominant/writing hand. So I had to identify things I was doing and then try to mimic that with my dominant hand. Now that I have nail wheels to practice on though, it's gotten a lot better!

[@NaiNicole]

I’m left handed and I’ve had 6 surgeries on my right hand,I was born with 4 fingers on my right hand so it’s a bit difficult to hold steady to things, especially a nail Polish brush. This video was helpful! I’m still learning but I appreciate this video so much

[@713gigglez]

I’m liking the kind of new editing style. Shout out to your editors! And I’ve definitely been using the technique of moving my dominant hand when painting it. It makes it so much easier!

[@VexedAngel]

That is totally her editing style go watch og main channel vids

[@713gigglez]

@@VexedAngel I’ve seen her OG videos, but these highlights have a slightly new type of editing, hence why I said “kind of new” She’s been crediting her editing assistants in the description box.

[@donnaharvill8210]

I've been doing my own nails for over forty years and I honestly can't tell you how I do my non dominant hand! Only thing I do know is i aways start with my non dominant hand and always work from my pinky to thumb! As years go by you do master doing it! It can also help if you concentrate on your breathing too! Have fun❣️💅🏼

Your editor correcting your pronunciation of eczema! 😭 (And before I get a million comments saying Cristine edits her own videos she has said more than once that she hired an editor for her stream highlights videos)

Except I asked my doctor and he said both are correct so depending on where you live…I say it the same way she said it 😊

[@heleninglis9961]

I feel you Cristine, I've got 2 different types of eczema on my hands & feet as well as psoriasis on my scalp & face. Gotta love those skin conditions lol

I paint my nails by myself for more than 14 years. At first my right hand was always a disaster, but after a while the skill grown on me. I can paint both hands perfectly, practice is everything!

I'm 53. I've never heard of anyone doing ot like this. I have always been the hover and tremble routine and accepting the same outcome. That's the thing that has put me off painting my nails. This sounds like a great tip. The polishes look fab!

[@fashionistaincorsica3050]

Such a gorgeous result! Love your green mani so much💚💚💚💚💚

[@lisamalcolm6916]

How I have always painted my right hand nails is I hold the brush still then I move my hand in a way that basically the right hand is controlling where the nail polish goes. So with my left hand I hold the brush and move my right hand under it in the way it needs to be done so it comes out nice and neat …. It’s worked for me for the last 20 years lol. Everyone has their own method to getting it done , love your videos 💕

Great job and that you for sharing your extensive grey matter with us, your 🧠 is priceless! (PS: as someone who DOES wear that white coat as a career….ya DO KNOW that a) Meredith is NOT a REAL PERSON…correct? And b) She’s not a REAL DOCTOR either? Right? (Please agree with me as no one WANTS a psych evaluation over the holidays as much as most of my family receives warning letters outlining how the holidays CAN go or WILL go but it is completely their choice!😁👍🏻 PS: YOU, my beautiful woman, only said ‘eh’ ONCE! The pride I have for you!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ PPS: Ambidextrous just to raise your ambi count.. PSS: eczema …. Hon, JUST had one of THE worst cases I’ve seen in a long time if not EVER….. I felt terrible for this lovely gentleman and as you know, it is a “time” vs “instant” heal for the most part BUT….as much as it’s impolite to nudge through an ER curtain and open with “ I couldn’t help but overhear…” when you’re ALSO A PATIENT…… a lovely and kind elderly woman said her mother had horrific eczema flare ups and “the ONLY ‘instant’ relief she ever was able to get was a concoction of ACV.” And this woman SWORE that it would help this poor man in minutes if we would just try….as there are creams, salves, pills and powders but again…time as well as predisposed conditions and contraindications with other medications had us in a corner and as I said….a very very bad flare up if ever I’ve seen one…so it did not take me long to bend to her will if he was game, which he was and ACV…well, depending on his present ph levels, this could only go one of two ways….. so here’s the info and this is by no means MY info or recommendation but it was darn incredible so I’ll give credit where credit is due!!!! So, 1C of Warm (20-22 Celsius) H20 and yes, and mix in a Tblsp of ACV AND YES, organic if possible as she told me, Then (as she said soak old rags and place over inflamed areas) crazy me, I chose sterile Tefla Pads, 4x4” were as big as we had and I soaked them in the bowl with ACV AND H20 and while her instructions were to leave him alone for 2-3 hours and he’ll be right as rain, bless her heart, I chose to have a LPN CONTINUE TO soak new Telfa pads and keep the liquid warm as well as him with warm blankets as the areas of concern were from the tips of his fingers and bilaterally up his arms to the back of his neck. This poor poor gentleman was putting on a brave face but after this many years of looking into eyes, you learn to spot pain a mile away. Both the imagined and the actual….HE was in PAIN or as we would say 8/10 which is high. Well, after my LPN diligently, gently and with precision Continued this for almost 4 hours, we removed and did a sterile rinse and I had been monitoring his ph level from admission to post sterile saline rinse which was approx 5.5 and once he was gently dried off and then a 50/50 mix of CeraVe ointment and body moisturizer placed on the affected area with a thin sterile non stick surgical drape to protect his clothes from not only the ointment on his skin but also IF by ANY CHANCE he had ANY S. aureus on his clothing I’d rather keep him as clean as possible until he could get home into FRESHLY CLEAN PJs And then F/U with his GP the following week. Well, not only did his GP phone and ask me what or whom I sacrificed from my staff to Sauron to “CURE” -yes-his words-! His LONG SUFFERING eczema patient as he had tried EVERYTHING BUT contacting Sauron himself, however was not against throwing his ex in the mix if it would help this lovely gentleman…LOL-medical people have very dark & twisted senses of humor….so I explained the story and this lovely man has NEVER been so happy, pain free and as he quoted his patient “felt soooo FREE and able to do ANYTHING (or as MUCH AS HE COULD AT HIS AGE) In his life!”!!! Sooooo beautiful, there’s a thought and a share for you as “IN the box” thinking when it comes to medicine and expensive or experimental drugs are most definitely NOT NOT NOT ALWAYS THE ANSWER and we MUST learn from our own history that “Grandmother did indeed know best!” Many many of the times….this was one MORE of those times and hey girl, YOU have nada to lose except the cost of 2-3 boxes of 4x4 Tefla pads and some Organic ACV (BTW: we ONLY were able to find UNfiltered which I personally would not have preferred had I any choice and I did indeed ‘filter’ it through 2 Telfa pads….just FYI🤷🏼‍♀️…. Something in my ‘gut’ said ok to ACV ORGANIC and even the ‘unfiltered’ part but the unfiltered part was a NO from my gut which I follow a LOT and it’s saved lives when a book or The Chief has said otherwise and I’ve fought for my ‘gut’ & WON soooo?????? Note to self…follow your gut/instinct/angel/G-d or whatever good voice in your sober and non drug “sponsored” intuition tells you because it’s there for a reason!!!! Now darling, YOU KEEP ON BEING YOUR AWESOME SELF but heck, if ur so inclined and u DO give it a shot with that lovely Lady who ‘couldn’t help but overhear…’ her recommendation…please DO let me know how you make out. And just an FYI as I said he was elderly but he was very clear as was his GP when he followed up with me, that he’d had ‘this’ since he was 4 or 5 as I recall. Approx 6 DECADES of this….. So if it does help at all, then G-d Bless that woman with the hearing of the CIA…. Regardless, thank you for being you and sharing your amazing gift and talent with us! You are awesome and I personally am grateful for you❤ Don’t ever change!❤❤❤ I’ll be back to follow more and learn more. I find doing my own nails quite cathartic and while I’m no “Meredith Grey”🙄….it certainly keeps the “ambi” brain working! Huge hug and as I said, I personally am grateful for you. You are a rare type of human to share so much wisdom so willingly and THAT is a blessing for us! (NO more ‘eh’s!!! I get enough crap for being 🇨🇦 LOL!). Huge virtual hug and wishing you & yours all of the happiness and peace and millions of dollars that you require to continue to give as you do to others so as to live a beautiful life well deserved❤!

Love all the references. Most entertaining nail vid I've seen

[@emilysmith5130]

i do a lot of random techniques like these, i def do a mix of pulling my hand away/ moving the hand that’s holding the brush. i always just do it out of habit. i never knew people didn’t know to do that.

[@minagica]

I love the Protective Peel! I occasionally end up chewing off my nails to nail bed (I need to not lapse on my nail painting or I get too tempted and if life gets too stressful I wake up with inattentively chewed off nails again) and then it helps restart the painting process by covering the skin in front of the nail. I know how to not paint the two sides and the base of the nail with polish, but I can't not paint skin that would normally be covered by nail when my nails are long. Great product!

That's how I started out painting my dominant hand. I've gotten good enough that I can now paint it the usual way, but moving the nail under the brush is a great way to do it if you're not that steady with your non-dominant hand or just not used to using it.

I've been struggling with myself if I should order her products for years. Today I just did it and I think I won't regret it.

[@RV-there-Yet]

I trained myself by laying down a 4 inch strip of double-sided foam tape on the table, to keep the side of my non-dominant hand in proper position. Amazing how well it works~ & I still do it once in a while, especially if it's been some time since last manicure. As for moving & turning the dominant hand that I'm painting, absolutely yes! I've been doing that since I was 12 & first started painting my nails. =) Excellent tips & tutelage miss! These days, I've been playing around w/nail strips/wraps because it's something different, & I'm someone who really likes my manicure to last a long time. I don't do wild & crazy colors, just simply nudes/shimmer/sparkle, so it's more utilitarian for me now I suppose.

Hi Cristine I love what you do and just who you are as a person 💜 I am unfortunately allergic to latex so I can't use Protective Peel or other latex peelies. Do you have recommendations for latex sensitive peeps other than Elmer's glue? Highly related, I've never been able to use nail oil because most brands are contaminated by lavender which I am incredibly allergic to. When you release your nail oil will it be safe for me? If not would you ever release a DIY vid for people like me who are fine with no perfume just whatever oil combo hydrates nails best? Even if you don't have answers for either of my questions I still love you and your content, keep doing what makes you happy 💜

[@heatherharvey9154]

Love the tips and the Julien merch!

[@chirpie11]

Great tips. Maybe some tape around the nail for a cleaner look? Great tips! I’m rightie, but wear my watch in my right wrist, which is normally done by lefties. Cool colors!

[@elaniarkady7351]

How have i never seen these tips before? Thank you! My nails thank you too.

*FEEDBACK* lol all caps just to trigger... seriously I loved this even though I missed the livestream (can't watch, busy life and many Netflix to catch up on), ? was there a convo about the mugs there that you diligently edited out to preserve our intense focus on the EXCELLENT job you did (and yes, I'm green-biased too) ...seriously though, absolutely beautiful job 💚💅

I actually did learn something, thanks Cristine! I might never use it, but this will make a fun anecdote to tell colleagues at lunch if they ask me what I did tonight xD aaah, KZbin/streams and the internet, where else would so many people gather to watch and listen to someone talking about nails xD

[@marikakanova9750]

Holo, I'd like to ask if different base coats mess with the colourful polish. AKA if there are some differences in drying time, longevity, etc. Since I know how much You like to compare stuff (e.g. Your whole channel), It would be very nice to see you make this into a video. Pretty please? 😍

[@amazinggrace5692]

When you paint the nail tip, are you painting the edge or beneath the nail? Thanks.

[@vdhios]

I love those greens!

Being a left hander in a right hander world, I've learned to do some tasks with both hands. I've gotten really good at doing both hands and will use either or for the "money shot".

[@tanalopez9512]

“It’s not likely someone’s gonna do that” me who’s literally bout to paint my nails finally after I painted the “base” earlier

[@nikkafrog]

Be careful on how long you wait between the base and color. I was actually suprised cristine didn't know this. But you dont want the base coat to fully cure before adding you color. Base coats are made to be tack-dry to bond properly with the polish. It is the same idea of why you dont add color on top of a top coat. You want it bond together and become one solid layer. Otherwise it will flake off layer by layer. So if you ever have you polish pull off in one layer, but there is still polish underneath, this is why. It do not properly bond to the layer below it. You also dont want to prep you nails in advanced before doing the manicure. Try to do it within 5 min. Otherwise you base coat wont stick to the nail plate. Did this once and nothing stayed.
