I have learned so much watching you, Suzie. I constantly receive compliments on my nails. My mother always said you can tell a lady by her nails. Thank you so much.

[@mommabear2544]

If you want a higher shine with your top coat: allow the seal and protect to set longer, then wash your hands with a non moisturizing soap (I use Dawn). After your nails are completely dry, add two layers of top coat.

[@cecilymegan-.-4201]

thank you so much, i was struggling to get a shiny coat!

[@ChristinaWilliams-nc8bg]

What if your boss doesn't allow you to put two top coats on it?

[@KimLarae366]

Pouring the powder does make life so much easier. Can you do a video on how to remove dip powder and not damage the natural nail?

[@evakowalik8277]

Yes please! How do you remove this stuff?? Without damaging your nails

[@Devilsinspiration]

What I do is file it down as much as I can; I like doing an e-file to take off as much bulk as I can then use a hand file. I also clip off the tip to make it faster, since I use tips on my nails. I don’t have the right bits to take it down to my natural nail or to a really thin layer. After that, I soak cotton pads in acetone and wrap them in foil. I let those sit for as long as I can and check it periodically. I usually wait until the acetone has melted it down to the smallest little lump on my nail then wipe it off with another acetone soaked pad. Wash, moisturize, go about my day. It’s about ~20 minutes so I do it on my day off lol

[@dianabowen8077]

Get a bowl with hot water, put a bag of sorts inside the bowl, pour acetone in the bag, and let your fingers soak and it comes off in about ten minutes, it help if u put a paper towel in the acetone and rub your nails every other minute. So the water is at the bottom of the bowl and the bag separate the acetone....

[@nivedhaaaa908]

you guys can use a peely base for your dip nails or do the other suggestions cause im not an expert

[@KimLarae366]

I was asking because in the beginning she shows her natural nail and stresses how important the removal method is, so I would like to see how she does it. I don't have time for peel base, they don't last long enough.

[@jessicapabstconrad]

I was always so used to washing my hands before getting my nails painted when I had acrylic nails that it reeeeeeally threw me off that my nail person just dusted me off before dipping my color and didn’t send me to wash my hands! Now I know why! I never asked, just trusted the professional and their process! So THANK YOU!

The pandemic was a blessing in disguise for me as far as getting my nails done at a salon. I have not been back to one for a manicure since then and only go for an occasional pedicure. I now do my own dip powder and am having so much fun doing it. If I decide to go back when the economy is better and the cost of living isn’t as high as right now, I will try to find a salon that may cost a little extra than my previous salon/s but care about the condition and health of the clients nails too. Not once did any of my previous salons put oil on my cuticles or advise me how to care for my nails in between manis. I’ve learned a lot since becoming a DYI-er!

LADY!! You are the best. Alright I have a question that I CANNOT for the life of me find any advice online for. My nails are pretty brittle (ridges, peeling, easy breakage), but i have been using nail oil religiously for the last 6-8 months and the improvement has been INCREDIBLE! Most ridges have disappeared, no more hangnails or dryness in skin surrounding the nails, no more peeling, and much less breakage. (I use bliss kiss in case anyone is wondering. Can't say enough good things about this nail oil). I love using dip powders so much because of how long it lasts, how thick and strong it makes my nails, and all the other reasons there are to love dipping. BUT - I am nervous about using acetone to dehydrate my nail, and buffing my nail, because of how brittle my nails have previously been. If I don't do those steps, I understand I'll probably have issues with lifting... do you have any advice? Will my nails be okay if I dehydrate them for application? And probably my biggest question - after applying dip powder, should I no longer apply my nail oil in case the oil seeps underneath and makes it lift? Hmm... how do I use dip powder while keeping my nails hydrated? THANKS!!!!

Yes you can do what you’ve heard. There’s many ways you can finish it. I’ll be honest I’m not a big fan of the topcoat either I find it doesn’t really give a great shine when cured or dried. If the brush does hard and they do supply extra brushes in the kit for that reason, I was suspect they do that because it is an issue. You can also contact the company directly either pretty good about customer service just in case there’s another issue going on here I’m not aware of.

One thing I learned as to why the brush hardens...when you use the seal...and then top coat...you are not letting the seal dry long enough before applying the top coat. It helped me as I was having the same issues. Once I allowed more dry time, the issue resolved. Hope this helps...

[@genavievelinkowski9612]

@@christinabrown620 Yeah, i thought I had waited long enough but maybe not... and now i think my whole bottle is contaminated because of it. I’m just gonna buy a curing light and a gel top coat and try it that way because I’ve heard a lot of complaints about kiaras dip top coat anyway. Thanks for the info though!! I’m still gonna try and make this top coat work so it doesn’t go to waste. :)

[@lisaratkowski1891]

@@NailCareerEducation Thank you for this tip I have had the same problem with the top coat and I have tried other brands too thinking it was me or the brand. the gel top coat looks better anyway :)

This is excellent!!!! All that filing after dipping the finger in the powder I've seeing another videos appear to be daunting to me but this method is far more simpler and even probably more efficient for those that don't feel like drilling a whole lot it still want very good results. Thank you so much for this!

Thank goodness for you! I have weak nails and do not want expensive acrylics and can't do them myself. Poly gel seems to just fall off immediately so I thought ok let try dip nails. I don't want them long just my natural nails. This was the best video

[@WendyCranford]

I’ve recently started using dip and it’s been a mess. It takes forever to get it off. Do you have a video sharing how to remove it?

[@rebeccaslifeinUSA]

The gel base coat is the easiest ways & fast . I been doing it in the past 3yrs & love it ,just pour don’t dip . Tips : buy yourself a tiny scoop so won’t waste products and avoid cross contamination .

[@rebeccaslifeinUSA]

When removing always thin down with your efile and soak in 100% acetone or wrap each fingers but don’t forget to break the zeal to make it faster . It’s only take about 10minutes

[@rileynguyen6850]

If you dip your nails into a small bowl of acetone, put the acetone bowl in another bigger bowl with very hot water. The hot water reduces the waiting time by 30%

[@AmberRodelander]

I tried the pouring instead of dipping, on one hand to see the difference. I do think it helps though its a bit messy! But the best tip is the alcohol wipe at the end, it really makes the top coat shine!!

Love this!!! Don’t know why the orange powder reminded me of Tang!!

[@sarahyon26]

I just started doing dip recently ( I know late to the party lol ) I have been a Gel user. But im glad to know I have been doing it this way just buy guessing and having self taught nail knowledge.

[@judithh_]

Who else thinks the pouring method is a great way for dip powder on the nails?😍

[@Gcarly425]

It works great for those tiny jars and long nails ☺️ my nails just too long to dip!

[@rebeccaslifeinUSA]

I been using pouring for a long time before dip got popular I love my clients can go for a month no issues

[@RATodd-ju7pg]

Absolutely its better because of what she just said. The pressure of pushing your fingers into the powder moves it around sometimes. I want to know where to find the little scoops she is using

[@brookb8756]

@@RATodd-ju7pg It looks like she is just using nail tips as scoops!

[@amberkubas2921]

Thank you so much! I just started dip nails. I am a massage therapist, so I have to have short nails, normally or use tips, for events! I never thought that I could have beautiful nails like this, that stayed longer than a day! It’s so exciting and I feel so much more beautiful! I do them every two weeks and I it takes a long time! These tips help so much! I can’t wait to try more of the pour method!

Is it possible to get captions or a summary of some of these videos? I can't always watch with sound and I think it would help some others for accessibility issues! I love your stuff though!

So glad I’ve discovered dip nails recently. I used to do my own acrylics 20 years ago and knew I wasn’t allergic to acrylic. I wanted something very quick and easy over my natural nails but unfortunately I’m hella allergic to rubber bases. I’m scared to use anything that goes under a lamp now because my reaction was so bad.

I just recently received my Kiara Sky dip kit and this video was so helpful. I did one nail at a time. It was time consuming, but I feel that for it being my first time using dip powder, that I got pretty good results. I am so glad I watched this video beforehand!
