I come here for the chaos and stay for the nails

[@valegavidia1849]

Facts 💕 she always apologizes for her chaos but i love her maping her way into the design and all of the talking

[@marieangus3658]

Amen

[@andisnails373]

Same tho!

[@PrincessPrincess-wf2ku]

Yeah what she said lol 😂

[@devin7703]

You did a great job. I do believe these are transfer fouls though. So maybe try foil gel and transferring the image possible next time.

[@blackempress1049]

I like how you pressed on despite not liking the results first time round. I was impressed by how you just trusted your gut and came out with that Spectacular masterpiece. Those nails got to me one of my all time fav now. Incredible work Emily💞💗💞

[@Yohena5]

I agree 👍🏼 also I love your profile picture! Did you draw that? Or is it someone else's artwork? If so what's their name and such?

[@lexjude]

I'm a newbie at my nails, so I really appreciate you showing your mistakes and also admitting how long it takes you to do them. I always felt really bad that it took me hours to make my nails look nice! You are amazing!! Thank you for being you

[@brianabella115]

Saaaaame. I always wondered how people have time to do their nails so I just leave mine bare

[@AngelaSmith_1970]

Same dude 🤨🤣🥰🙌🏽🤗 apparently I picked up a couple new hobbies over 2021 and SFX makeup 🤨💀🤣 currently learning how to use liquid latex and liquid silicone (brand name is Dragon Skin FX Pro and various dragon skin molds to make for my sons 😎🙌🏽

[@nickelpennybanks]

I can take 4 hours to do one hand and it’s so frustrating and time consuming. For the simplest things 😭

[@lexjude]

@CJ What really helped me was seeing her do a video once, and then telling us that she was going to finish them in the morning. I do that a lot myself and I don't feel bad about it now!

[@PrettyMarie]

I just love her. She shows you it’s not always gonna be perfect..a more realistic take on things so you don’t feel as bad when you don’t get things right

[@devanelle1889]

this would be a perfect set to use those iridescent rhinestones, especially to cover up ay spots you don't like

[@Gucciblackberry]

You made this look SOOOOO easy! Every other video I’ve seen on here it looks like it’s a. Lot harder to achieve unless your a pro nail tech but I ACTUALLY am going to buy the stuff for this and try it now cause you made this look so easy for somewhat a beginner in nail art! Thank you! Thank you! Thank youuuu!!!!!!

[@janicemcgill7082]

You one of the real people that we really like to watch now I’m in my late 60s and I know you’re a young beautiful sweet lady I really enjoy your channel because of your sense of humour because you laugh at your mistakes because you keep going and you’re willing to go to the extreme like with the extreme long nails you’re not afraid to try anything you just keep trucking on and I think that’s what brings pretty much all of us to your channel it’s just everything about it

[@nataliegonzales1724]

Instead of cutting the film into shape try putting it onto the nail WHOLE and then trimming the edges you will see a much smoother and full coverage 😉

[@thatgirl2646]

Yes that is exactly what I was thinking the whole time

[@Mary_Kay2]

These came out so cute the jelly colors themself were cute like a galaxy theme 🥰 and tip for sticking stuff down use the back of a nail form to help make it flat 🤪

[@RDBKS-dn1sc]

I love the chaos! It shows your creative intuition and ability! I always make a mess when making ART.

[@HaleiwaGirl808]

Oh honey don’t ever discount yourself! You ARE, 100% a professional!!! And we all love you!

[@emilyhollis4231]

I was going to make a comment about that! I'm so glad others noticed. Someone who isn't professional doesn't earn nearly half a million KZbin subscribers! I adore her. I'm old enough to be her mom, but I think she's absolutely brilliant.

[@a1sauce112]

i honestly really love how you experiment and not just DO your nails. It’s so much more interesting/fun and i love the process.

[@emilylin8860]

Omg I love them! I’ve also been trying the aurora nails out on myself and what I’ve learned through trial and error is that in order to achieve a more “smooth” look, it helps to have a medium-thick layer of builder gel on your nail before you lay down the film for it to lay flat. Additionally, if you make the film thinner, it helps with the leveling and won’t give you the weird bumps when encapsulated. However, I’ve never tried it with acrylic, so it may be different in application.

[@susidefour5257]

How can you make the film pieces any thinner? I'm not sure I understand? THX

[@aggira9752]

@@susidefour5257 I think she means the width. So cut the same lenght but slimmer.

[@richbtch546]

I'm obsessed with your videos and have been watching you for the last 7 hours.. not even exaggerating. Its so entertaining for some reason!

[@EmilySusanah]

🥰

[@heidikuusisto3602]

I always really appreciate how you do not try to cover your fails or nails that you did not like. I like the honesty and it is nice that not everything on the internet is perfect on the first try, u kno? It is nice to see your learning curve 🤩🤩 But I also think that your "failed nails" were so pretty and awesome too!

[@appieclnnamon]

I use that exact mica set for resin art! They're so pearly and nice!

[@airyannathomas5770]

I literally love the chaos. It makes my brain happy!

[@MomoKitten]

I’m on a 9 month pause from doing my nails, your giving me so much inspiration for new designs to try when this baby comes lol.

[@silylily1212]

I love the detail you go into with your designs and it's really cool that you show the fall even though they looked good too. Also love the conversational style of your videos. Really enjoying your channel, thank you!

[@DrunkenBanshee7117]

Honestly, I love watching your videos. I fond you to be so chill and your voice is so relaxing for me. I am def voting for you everyday until I can't anymore for the influencer awards. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!

[@daarmonet]

if you changed your channel to just acrylic mixing id still happily watch lol

[@Xavi-tan]

I can't even with how you made these!!! I love these so much, and I've always loved watching others make aurora nails, but yours are kiiiiind of my favorite. Stay safe and happy, and keep getting puppy kissing every day!! ♡

[@nicolehood373]

Your second set is pure perfection. The first set is fun but I’m glad you did them again.

[@myaduval8596]

I love that you posted as I finish my own nails

[@bichikichi]

I want to say that everytime you upload a new video you make my day, you're the best nail related channel and I love your content so much 💖💖💞💘

[@morganseibert8572]

Yes i agree with this comment...! I always look forward yup Emily's videos and shes the only nail influencer that i truly love!

[@sparkylie]

You did an amazing job! Thank you for showing the differences in what you thought looked better vs the “failed” result. The amount of time and energy you put into these is insane! Thank you for giving me so much inspiration and advice!

[@ejk872]

LOL I love that determination and resolve at 16:30

[@debbydubois2388]

Love that you're willing to try these hacks and show us🥰

[@EveHyland-in8jb9ti9y]

They look gorgeous Emily, love all your videos, you're the best nail channel. Hope you and the fam are well, Blessings from Scotland. 🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌹

[@ebibunny3030]

You motivated me to do nails so much every time I watch you I want to do my manicure and I love it ❤️

[@Leanne_w]

I’ve been watching you for years and you’ve come so far. It’s been nice to watch your progression. You’re so talented. I used to be a nail tech so I know that they’re not as easy as they look to do. Much love from England ❤️

[@thenailpolishbottle7267]

[@mattiebee347]

I would love to see you do the full-length pasta nails that you talk about in the doing my nails with unnecessary items video!!!

[@ashsootd]

[@Kaorihana13]

I used a cute plastic from bath and body works during their winter time sales, it provided that same effect for the aurora nails. I love watching your videos and I'm so glad to see the items I've been eyeing used and tested. 💕

[@Anxious_introvert90]

These are so gorgeous

[@TheGossipgirlxoxo69]
