STEP-BY-STEP AT-HOME MANICURE TUTORIAL | Sarah Brithinee

[@rosekay1083]

I do my nails almost every other day. Every time I’m bored, stressed or go on Pinterest, I end up spending like 4-5 hours on my nails lol.

[@MrsDLSmith1]

I’m a leftie too! I do my nails at the end of every week (while I have on KZbin!😊) - it is so therapeutic. Your tutorial was awesome!

[@SarahBrithinee]

That sounds like the perfect way to end your week!

[@Genevieve111]

Hi Debbie Smith... I find painting my nails very therapeutic as well.

[@curiousobserver97]

Another lefty here. I also prefer to do my own nails. I keep them super short and change polish every 3-4 days because I get bored of the color quickly.

[@cvma2430]

For the cleaning up you have to do afterwards everything is finished, you should try using a thin brush with a bit of acetone, it leaves your nails looking like you just left the salon! Very professional looking. I loved your tutorial!

[@rachela.5736]

I put vaseline/petroleum jelly around the skin around all the fingers/cuticles and then place the acetone/polish remover on the nail for 6 seconds and wipe off the color. No color will stay on the skin and the cuticles will be conditioned. No mess. My method. It works and it's super easy.

[@melissaosoria]

Try holding the cotton ball on your polish for like 5 seconds and then wipe off that way you don’t get nail polish all over your fingers

[@fionappleisthebest]

For pushing back cuticles I like to use some cuticle oil (with my old manicure still on) I use an orange wood stick and the oil soaks in rather than using a water soak. Then I’ll use zoya remove plus to remove the old polish but my cuticles have been pre-treated to help protect against the acetone 😉

[@psychologicallyspeaking]

Very smart! My cuticles are so dry i just dread the remover so much. Will do this right now!

[@cherylb5680]

I never considered it was my nail file that was making my nails split, very informative! I love your nail length classy not trashy, am not into long pointy acrylic nails-Ugh!!!😕

[@SallyYapto]

Where did you get your ring omg I cannot stop looking at it

[@ТатьянаЛогинова-й1у]

маникюр уродливый🤷‍♀️

[@watermelongal5512]

I'm left handed too! I didn't know you're left handed. :) What an awesome tutorial! I do my own nails too. You nails look like you just got it done at the salon! I love it! Thanks Sarah for sharing!! Appreciate it!

[@SarahBrithinee]

Yesss, I love being a leftie, but the world is def made for righties haha. And thank you, you're so sweet!

[@nancybachmeier5921]

Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for such a detailed video on giving yourself a manicure. It was EXTREMELY informative. I'll be looking forward to seeing more of your videos. I also love doing nail art and would love to see anything you can come up with.Nancy Bachmeier

[@LLE2222]

One of the best nail tutorials I've ever seen. Thanks! Beautiful nails! 💅

[@natalie-gz5bq]

I loved watching this because I love painting my nails! 💅 Thank you for your tips! 😘

[@SarahBrithinee]

Of course, I hope they were helpful for you!

[@melodiechartier5173]

i would put the nail polish BEFORE the hand cream instead of putting hand cream, whipping your nail to take away the creams and then putting polish, it seems like a lot of unnecessary steps.

[@Pattiepies55]

Your cuticles look fantastic and you have a long nail bed !! My half moons have never been visible 😭

[@SarahBrithinee]

Thank you! I never even knew that was something people wanted! I'm sure your nails are gorgeous just the way they are (:

[@Pattiepies55]

@@SarahBrithinee you are so sweet. Thank you.

[@kassidyzambrano8602]

You had an Essie summer nail polish in one of your favorites awhile back and that’s what got me back into nail polish again! I love having my nails done and just doing them is so theraputic!

[@SarahBrithinee]

I'm guessing it was matter of fiction since that's what I wear SO OFTEN. It really is so relaxing to sit down and do them!

[@AffiliateAlie]

Love the color an it looks very clean but I go all the way up to the cuticle other wise it looks like only part of the nail is polished especially when it grows out. If it gets on my actual cuticle it clean it up with a thin brush.

[@kassidyzambrano8602]

How do you get them to last so long? I enjoy switching up my colors anyways but I wish they would last at least 5 days I use Essie polish and seche vite top coat!

[@SarahBrithinee]

I think a lot of it has to do with the prep. I keep my nails pretty short so it makes them hit less things in my daily life and I also think that buffing them really helps the polish stay on way longer.

[@MercedesNene]

Sally Hansen cuticle remover works really good! && the glisten and glow top coat dries super fast! Those are just a couple of my favorite must haves for my manicure 💅

[@SarahBrithinee]

Oooh those sound amazing!

[@DanaiMRamos95]

Yess I love the Morgan Taylor stick with it base coat so far the most long lasting & the Glisten & Glow top coat for sure my favorite !!😍💅🏼

[@kylehawk9055]

I'm left handed as well. I'm new to painting my nails. I do find it therapeutic.

[@meghangent9702]

So I watched this today and you totally inspired me to do my nails tonight. ❤💅

[@SarahBrithinee]

I hope they turned out great!

[@Genevieve111]

Now I have the urge... 💅 Too bad we can't post pics in the comments section...

[@candidtalkswithlauvena1835]

Thank you so much for sharing, especially about not cutting the cuticles, that is one of the reasons I had stopped to do my nails at the salon, because it hurt so much. I am left handed too and thank you for giving me an idea on how to do as a lefthanded person, As someone who is interested in doing nails as an extra income business I thank you so much for sharing. 💅💕💕💕

[@iwillstom]

Essie Gel top coat is the best one I've ever tried. It never chips before I want to change colors, which never happens with any other top coat on my weak, thin nails. The only issue I find with fast drying top coats is it shrinks the polish at the tips so it will look like my nails have already grown out a few hours after I paint them. Drives me a bit crazy.

[@SarahBrithinee]

I know that one works SO well for tons of people & that's amazing that it works that well for you! I wish it worked for me, but the others I've tried work better for my nails. I've never had that shrinkage look, but it'd def drive me crazy too!

[@iwillstom]

Sarah Brithinee Definitely going to try that base coat. The one I use dries up before I use half the bottle.

[@Flower-ck5nq]

Your nail has been splitteen? 🤔

[@Emma_K]

If you don't like the Essie brushes, but like the color, I'd recommend buying the color "Raisin The Roof" by sinful colors. They have thinner brushes. It is a VERY similar color to the one she is using.

[@nadalatif9241]

Hi Sarah great video! Question! How do you dispose of your old nail polish thats beyond revival. Especially if theres still product inside the bottle... thanks 😊

[@simple_naildesigns]

Beautiful color 🥰💖

[@evayaaasantewaa448]

I just discovered glass nail files and love them! Will never go back to metal or sandpaper-y ones.

[@Ravewood]

Thank you for the detailed tutorial. You gave a lot of good beginner helpful info that has been left out of other manicure tutorials.

[@mariopichlhofer4351]

Du hast wunderschöne Nägeln

[@sallywalker1073]

Does no one soak theirs hands and fingers before starting the mannicure . I thought it would help soften everything up, and make it easiear .

[@Awebb5355]

What color are you taking off it’s pretty. I can’t use acetone. Ruined my nails

[@Awebb5355]

I’ve looked for this color. model clicks 370? Essie Couture?

[@mariopichlhofer4351]

🧚🧚🧚🧚🧚

[@ellenrogers4846]

Sarah, do you shake your bottles of polish before you use them?

[@paulsheldon229]

like the color thanks for manicure instruction

[@AClutterFreeLife]

Can u do the 2nd coat after the first one has completely set lr do you need it to be a bit tacky?

[@paulsheldon229]

great instruction relaxing painting nails

[@freakiefrog9781]

Your top coat..... out the door..... does it shrink? Sometimes my Seche Vite does ..... have used it for years..... but looking for a top coat that doesn't shrink. Beautiful nails btw! Thank you for the video

[@SarahBrithinee]

So I've been hearing this a lot about shrinking and I've never had an issue with it before. I've never tried that particular top coat, but mine doesn't do that on my nails. I've never used a top coat that does it though.

[@thecynmgil]

This is awesome! Thank you!! 💅🏼

[@SarahBrithinee]

Of course, I'm glad you enjoyed!!

[@carlfoster6060]

I wanna smell your nails look nice

[@milkflavored]

When do you apply cuticle oil??

[@paulsheldon229]

nice color on ur nails

[@sarahmason6763]

Where is your sweater from?? Love it!

[@SarahBrithinee]

This is it! rstyle.me/+-zE4omncLsRfWMsJZB7jDQ

[@Mel79439]

Leftie here too!! I would suggest getting cuticle oil. Do that at the end. Helps with dry cuticles.

[@viviana867]

Where did you get the long brush for out the door top coat.? Love the manicure color!

[@SarahBrithinee]

Mine came with it, but I did notice that the larger bottle doesn't come with a brush anymore and it's supposedly just a refill bottle. The regular sized bottle still comes with a brush though!

[@jenniecartier3917]

There is a reason we have nail tech! We know what we are doing! There is a difference between cutting died cuticles and alive ones!

[@teresainkawhich3388]

Thanks Sarah. Im going to try it your way. But unrelated. Blush color?? Where is your necklace from?

[@SarahBrithinee]

My necklace is from my shop withlovesar.com -- it was a limited edition release, but I'm planning to rerelease them soon! And my blush is becca songbird (:

[@michellskaare9150]

Why do you not use the gel couture top coat? I love the Essie line now that I’ve found it, I no longer have to go get my nails done.. 😁

[@SarahBrithinee]

It didn't work as well for me personally. I know a ton of people swear by it, but everyone is different & I like the one I use better!

[@victoriabrooke7970]

Your ring is beautiful. Was it super expensive??

[@katgirlblue]

Never never never buff nails!

[@jenniecartier3917]

I’m a nail tech! Please stop saying Paint you’re nail! It’s called Polish you’re nails! Don’t file your nails back and forth!

[@Lianabel2485]

Jennie cartier natural nails you can file then back and forth only with a glass nail file

[@carlfoster6060]

Nice nails I wanna smell them
