Suzie out here helping our nails survive quarantine 😂
Thank God I do dip nails my self 😉
😂😂
@@Craz1eCh1ck05 What brand do you use? I keep seeing this everywhere but i heard its very time consuming
@@ebonyscruggs8619 I get mine from Ebay. UR Sugar from a seller that you buy 3 and get 2 products free. So I got all 5 steps plus buy powders for less then $10. The powder do come in small containers so I get 2 of the colors I use the most.
@@ebonyscruggs8619 What takes me more time for me is preping the nail. Use a thin layer of the glue for ever layer of powder. Normally I do 3 coats. I don't use tips just my natural nails. And to remove use acetone or file
You know Susie about to get down to business when she puts her glasses on. The bob Ross of nails
😂😂good one
I didn’t realize how depressed I was till I watched this video and felt how much it lifted my spirits.
Hope you feel better soon! 💕
Aw sweetie - tune in anytime you need to😘
This will pass. Keep your head up! 💜💜
Depression hurts. I know how you feel. 🤗
LindzExposure I hope you feel better soon! Depression hurts and it really beats you down. I hope it will pass. Feel well soon! ~ Lola
He's a really cute dog
I've used this kit many times with great success. But I always go back after about 3 days, lightly buff and add an extra coat of "gel". A week later I'll do it again. I can get about 3 weeks before redoing them, mostly because they will start turning a little yellow and you start to see the regrowth more by then. I actually used the kit to help grow my own so I don't have to use it anymore. Pro is always better of course, but with shops closed right now I highly recommend this kit.
I like watching these videos becuase she doesn't bad mouth these shop purchased items. Not everyone can afford getting their nails done so it's good to see what a pro thinks xx
I love the lights in the background
The lights are so pretty!✨
I have actually used these many many times. I don't know if anybody mentioned You're supposed to dip it back into the brush cleaner in between nails so that your brush doesn't get hard sitting in the activator.
also use the pink side for buffing much more gentle.
Just a little tip 😉👍
My nails are sticky after several minutes, do you think its because I didn't dip in cleaner between nails?
@@SCADMom2012 possibly. Let them dry between coats. Mine have never been sticky. I've been using them for years. Maybe try wiping off with 50% alcohol
My brush on gel brush hardened quite quickly whilst using it and I couldn’t complete the manicure, I was really disappointed but then a few days later I opened it and the brush had returned to its normal state…
Did both brushes in the cleaner in between layers? My gel burst hardened and I can’t get it back can I?
@@amberfredette9862 try soaking in acetone. Might be able to restore them. But yes, in the future I would always clean in between layers. I wouldn't leave your brush out more than 40 seconds or so cuz then it will dry and harden
You have such dainty hands! I'm like, "Wait... a 5 fits her thumb???" Meanwhile, I'm over here with a 1 or 2 on my big ol' thumbs.
Kiera Jacobs same here! Lol
Same 🙋🤣🤣0
omg really?! I use a 3 for my thumbs lol. And i ALWAYS have to file down the 10 for my pinky and sometimes my index finger😂
same. my thumbs were a 1!
Girl. Ive got giant nail beds too! Just more canvas to paint on. ;) haha
You’re one of the few nail people who shows how these products hold up over time and I really appreciate it. It’s not just about easy application!
I love that you always buff your natural nails so gently. If you could see how other nail techs buff the natural nail, you’d run away..
The satisfaction I felt when seeing you break those wee tabs off was ridiculous. I think I might be going crazy. Lol.
Shoegal7 dont worry. I am going crazy too and it satisfied me to no end 🤣👌🏽
I checked the ingredients. As I suspected, this is not gel. It's ethyl cyanoacrylate. AKA superglue.
Yup it sure smells like a glue
They do make gel brush on super glue, it’s probably very similar to that.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Natasha Powers she did mention it’s a glue and not a real gel several times in the video
I thought so!
I really wish it would become illegal for these companies to put "Gel" on products that aren't actual gel. They're preying on people who don't know the difference. Those "Gel" nail polishes that are just regular polish bother me the most. If it's not in an opaque container and doesn't need a UV or LED to cure, it isn't gel and they shouldn't be allowed to say it is.
I agree 100% !!!
I don't think the word gel is a protected term unfortunately because I do agree it's sneaky underhanded business practices
Definition of gel
1 : a colloid in a more solid form than a sol broadly : jelly sense 2. 2 : a thin colored transparent sheet used over a stage light to color it. 3 : a gelatinous preparation used in styling hair.
so it isn't against the law to call anything gel, and there is no strict definition of what a gel is
@@MadamBathory00 ok, "gel polish", then. Sheesh.
Grace G you have to see where it’s annoying that companies abuse it though right? Unfortunately we can’t do anything but it’s darn annoying
I love the dog. I bet he loves Susie’s scratches.
I tried that kit last summer and, yes, that is super glue in gel form!!!
When I tried the kit, just as you did, followed instructions to a T. I used the natural tips on all 10 nails and right after I actually used actual gel polish base coat, gel nail color and gel top coat curing them (all coats of all 3) as usual. That mani lasted me 2 full weeks without breakages and/or lifting and I was rough in my nails!! I work receiving/dispatching/handling/sorting mail (from boxes to envelopes) in a warehouse style environment (grungy, fast pace, not dainty work at all!) and I also did all my regular house chores and then some since my husband was away for work at the time and they still help up perfectly!!! I just removed them after 2 weeks because the growth was not helpful at work. It was a great jumpstart for my nails after having most of them break within a week which is why I chose the kit on the first place. I just wish this video had been available then because listening to you is so pleasant, as always, and I would have enjoyed the instructions being accompanied with your voice and expertise as opposed to the others I found. At least others trying it out now can enjoy it though!
For those of us sitting in our homes and looking at our nails and missing our salons, these nail kits are just FINE. I had hoped by Easter that my salon would be open again, but it wasn't so I purchased the "Salon Dip Color System." I've used these products before. Are they as good as the lady at my salon? NO WAY! First off, they aren't nearly as funny as she is and she makes my nails beautiful. However, these kits will have to do until this is over. Stay well everyone. :)
There's a lot of different kits available now, theres no time like the present to start trying things out. Maybe you'll get good and save money on nails!
A lot of these are quite easy to use, dip powder or this brush on gel is basically just the same as painting your nails.
Same to you.
What these kits go for in the store is better than the salon right now when that's all you can afford
I’ve used this before and received tons of compliments. Quick and easy. For me they lasted about a week and then the tips started popping off. Super cheap too.
the “brush on gel” is literally just nail glue but surprisingly it looks pretty alright for an at-home kit
Does Kiss sell brush on glue? I need that so bad. I actually hate squeeze on glue. LOL
Atrice McCary i’m not sure if they sell it on its own but they sure do make it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Atrice McCary they do, I’ve bought it off of amazon.
Yes they make brush on nail glue by kiss
@@atricewarner5705 they do.
This kit is my favorite, honestly. I rarely use the tips, just do it as an overlay. Yeah they’re nothing special but I have super brittle nails since I’m always in water/chemicals. So this helps me keep length/strength without spending $70 every 3 weeks.
That is the best nail tip I have ever heard! Start on the pinky that isn’t mostly seen to get practice!!!! I am definitely going to start doing that thanks for the great tip!!!!😊👍
Right!!!!?
It really is! But, I was surprised to see her start at the middle finger, which is front and center, lol 😆 😂
This is the very first diy nail kit I ever tried! Now I’ve been dipping my own nails for a year.
Dipping? I’m new to the diy nail deals. What do you mean by dipping your own nails? Please explain.
@@sheliagmosby8951 look up dip powder nails
I love these tips. Fun tip: file in between layers and you can make them last up to 2 weeks and appear seamless 😉
Yup. Like how you'd do fiberglass nails with tips which is sort of similar to this
@@Leelsabeth do we wait for the layer to dry and then file? X
@@israaomar3219Yes, I've been doing it this way and it seems to make them last longer.
Mine aren’t as flimsy because I did like 4 rounds and put on a Sally Hansen base & top coat.
Thx for the 5 day update. That is a huge help to know how they stand up to everyday use, say compared to just wearing them for a fun week on a cruise where you wouldn’t be doing house work etc.
She always sounds so sweet! She’s one of those ppl who could insult you and your entire family, you’d have no idea, and thank her as she walks away with a grin 😂😂😂😂
I can just hear her saying “bless your heart” lol
Lol...
Fact!
🤭😂
Canadian lol
Great tutorial and your dog is so cute 😍🐕
Uhhh i love yall so much! ❤️
i watch your channel too@ longhairprettynails
THIS IS THE INTRO TO LONG HAIR PRETTY NAILS SHOWWWW, YEAH
Hi I love you so much I also watch you a lot
I love your vids so much. Keep up with the good work 🙏🏾and god bless you and your unborn child and your family
I was gifted that same exact kit, now I'm super excited to use it! Especially cause I got all the time right now. BTW, I'm one of your male viewers!
Coming from someone that doesn't leave comments I absolutely think this video is amazing keep doing what you're doing you're truly inspiring
With everyone home people are going to be doing there nails!
It’s keeping me calm !
Ava Barrons-Shasho well that is great! Anything that helps you and doesn’t hurt anyone else I’m all for! I wish you the best dear and I hope you are stress free soon. 😊
I actually do it for years now...lol...using a 3 in 1 hard gel
Yes I just made my first video about refilling nails with nail dip because I couldn't take it I had to do something
I'm almost a pro. Saved soooooooo much money😉🤑🤗💅🏽
I have tried these before. It’s resin and definitely not gel. Mine came out like crap. You did a much better job!
I have used exactly the same and its horrible
Its a disaster🙈
I love this girls videos every single time I get a kit like this and I know I need help. I go to CZcams and she pops up and she always explains it simple where I can understand nail logic lol ❤❤❤
I love how you didn’t speed through this demonstration. Your presentation was excellent! I really miss getting my nails done so I think I’m going to try this kit. Thanks, and new subbie! 😊
I think you were supposed to clean the activator brush between each nail D: that way you don't get the "gel" into the activator.
Is this why my brush didn't survive? This kind of makes sense. Hmmmm.
Thank you so much for posting your videos even in this stressful time! Thank you for all you do!
I used this product and my nails lasted for almost 2 weeks. I did my normal chores and did a lot of typing. By the 14 day mark, I filled them in per the package instructions, except I added the "gel" and activator to the length of the nail and got another 5 days of wear. I really like the product. The ease of removal was also a big plus. I will probably purchase this product again.
Evelyn Gray hi! How did you remove them?
@@YourSpeechMommy Hi, I saturated a cotton ball with Acetone polish remover and put it on the nail and wrapped a piece of tinfoil around each nail and left them for about 5 minutes. When I took the cotton ball off, the stuff was jelly like and just peeled off. I buffed my nail a little bit after the remover dried, and then put some good hand cream on, and a clear coat of polish, and you can't tell they were ever there. Hope that helps.
Very helpful thank you
You are a great teacher. Your voice and the way you “teach” are easy to understand and simple. You don’t blab about things we don’t need to know. You get to the point! That’s a rare thing in how to videos!
Thanks for such a great review and for showing us the 5 day wear! I've learned so much from your videos :)
Excellent tutorial and the “update” is really appreciated! 💕 the guest appearance 🐕
The update is so vital, thanks for including it!
this is an old video but i’m just now watching this and her for the first time. this woman is the cutest ever. like she’s so nice and REAL
I knew here too and wonder how these are removed. Does the kit come with a removal kit also or a soak off? Ik I sound kinda…silly(?)… but I really want to know lol.
@@CherieBuckingham so i actually tried the kit and what i did was file the nail beds until i couldn’t feel ridges, and then i soaked my hands in oil, dish soap, and hot water for about 10-15 minutes. when my hands dried i filed again, and then i soaked them in acetone and from there i was able to take the lifted parts of the nail tip and take it off.
im sure there’s much more effective ways but im broke and dont have a lot of time lol
They looked so good right after you did the nails, I was super surprised about they way they looked after 5 days 😳 This was very educational an very great way too show us how too apply this set! Thank you! 💅
AdlRvm
Really happy to see Suzie test out a set like this :D I always wondered if they would last!
I've been going through a very rough time , my cat died, I have bad anxiety/depression and my grandma has cancer 😭 but every time I turn your videos on I feel better ,ilysm I wish I lived near u so u could do my nails!💗
I really love u I haven’t done nails in about 5 years after I had to stop working and I’ve been going to my favorite nail tech but this quarantine has had me in the house so I ordered a lot of different stuff and I watch ur videos and my nails and my daughters nails have been looking amazing I love the way u talk us thru everything u do thank u so much❤️
I tried these also because my local beauty supply store was out of acrylic liquid and this kit costs $7 at Dollar general. I'm on my 3rd week of wearing them and I did a fill.
I ran out of brush on gel last time I used this kit. Noticing how it smelled so similar to straight-up super glue and how the ingredients were nearly identical, I used run-of-the-mill super glue I got from the hardware aisle in place of the "gel". It worked perfectly fine. Pretty much exactly the same as the gel. It also created the same/similar finishing effect when used with the activator.
@@thegirls6147 I just used the activator on top, filed to shape, and put a regular ole top coat on.
@@thegirls6147 No, sorry, gel, activator, gel, activator, and then gel once more, final coat activator, then file and shape once dry, then cover with polish or top coat. I realize that wasnt very clear. lol
It looks absolutely gorgeous and clean! I love the natural look! It's simply beautiful 😊
Just love her.. thank you for showing us how to do our nails
Hi Suzie! Thank you for all you've thought me...
Stay safe, sending love from 🇳🇬
I wasn’t sure if it would look good but it did. Thank you for sharing with us. Videos are keeping me from going crazy 😜. Thank you 🙏 again.
I love, love, love, this kit. The tips are so easy to apply. Best cheap kit ever.
This was very cool. I’ve had clients ask me about at-home products so it’s nice to know this is an option that can keep them occupied during our stay home order. 💕 Thank you
When I first started doing my own nails, I used this kit ALL the time, I even tried putting polygel on top to help it’s was STUNNING!
that's what I did today!!! the tips from this Kiss kit above with polygel I ordered online.....dualforms and I do not get along!!
The cracking happens because u need to leave the glue set between each layer, the activator goes at very very right end. my first kit was Cosmar brand, and experience through all these years (+25) taught me that.
Love the testing!! Hello to your doggie!!! His "talking" was so cute too!!!💜💖💜
Omg Fair Bear!!! I can't with that doggie! That brush on gel is totally nail glue...those cracks resemble the kind you get using nail glue
The kiss dip nail system is also pretty good. I'm on my second week with them and no lifting.
That's great! I want to try the dip kit!☺
@@VannaRoses definitely worth it
@@sgaray87933 😄👍
Thank you so much for the walk through guidance! 💅🏽 My nails came out great for my first nail DIY! Your on point step by step directions helped so much! Especially happy I could take some time for myself through this quarantine! Much appreciated ♥️♥️
Been using this for a few months and before I tried it I was waiting for you to review and try this kit!!
So glad you have as you’ve given me a few tips to make my next application easier and better! Love your work Suzie!
When all this virus crisis is over, please come to Australia to do a workshop! ❤️
I love this kit when I can’t afford the salon! I do 4 layers tho!! And I file and shape the tips into more of a coffin shape before applying gel and they look so dainty and pretty and smooth after. Also I use Kiara sky bond before the “gel” too
I’m trying to figure out what I should do since I can’t go get a gel fill in! Might just have to go this route til my nail place opens back up!
This cute dog "speaking" is the best part of the video. 😄😍
Love that you did this… I used to use kits like this when I was in high school, and had something fancy to go to… like a dance, or a bit football game.
When did you adopt a dog? You should tell us more about him. He's adorable. 💗
MissouriPride USA who cares about her dog
@@AlgG-yy2kq
I do! There's no need to be rude or hateful.
@@missouriprideusa6241 i do too. I have a Chinese crested pp. And am so glad to see the dkg!
I think these would be perfect for a cheap last minute manicure, maybe if you’re attending a wedding/event, taking photos, or even for a weekend trip. Great way to save some money and time when you don’t have the means to go to the nail shop.
I love her so much always in a good mood
Hope you and your loved ones are staying safe & healthy. Much love from Coquitlam.
Thanks for this video! I enjoyed it and "meeting" your pup. :-) Stay safe.
I like how your house looks beautiful and i also like very very much your nails and the flower you had on
Thank you! I just recently smashed all of my nails from having a door fall on them! Yet, the whole door and frame came out from the wall and my nails took the brunt. I ended up getting a lot of vertical splits in the nail bed. My beautician told me to put tips on the nails to secure the top edge of my nail so that any stress wouldn't cause the splits to go deeper. I saw this product at the store, and I brought it home. Saw your application for it and they turned out pretty good! I am coming up to one week of wear with the nails with three coats of color. I am seeing growth down at my cuticle so hopefully, this will be my saving grace until these splits grow out of my nail bed. It was a great tip from my beautician and you did a wonderful job of showing how easy they are to put on! Thank you once again!
not bad this set. the other nails are really cute and the before AND after hair is gorgeous!
I was looking at this product yesterday. I’m so glad I’m waiting until this pandemic is over. I’m making my nail appointment ASAP. Lol
You are an excellent teacher. So patient and calm. I really enjoyed this video💕
I’ve had children 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Suzie thank u so much for making this video for us 🙏 it’s a difficult time for us all, and ur videos r so light hearted and entertaining. I don’t even do my nails or get them done, but I love ur vids because of YOU!!! 💓💕💓💕💓 Much love, stay safe
Awwww you have such a cute doggie!!! I wish I could pet him. That was a nice little surprise :)
I use this kit all the time, it's great when you need nails in a hurry or you're on a budget....
Did it ever damage your nails? I see people complaining in the comments how the gel is not really gel, but I already bought it and want to try it
@@NIQGIO no it didn’t , but maybe because I didn’t have them on long...
@@tmon4819 How long did you leave them on for? Because I bought it and people are in the comments making me worried, saying no its glue like it's a bad thing
@@NIQGIO I just needed something last minute for an event over the weekend, I believe I soaked them off after approx. 4 or 5 days...But I've had them on for 7 days before too. I only know my experience with them. Hope this helps!
How much is the kit for I live in Bradford and want to get one in a store I saw!!
Love your “Making Spirits Bright” towel. I know it’s a small detail, but I needed that little spark of happiness today 🧡 thanks for making the video!
I love the "natural" nails from this kit. They are so quick and easy. I use them with my gel polish and UV light. I can get them to last for a week but typically just them for a quick night out.
I can almost smell it through my computer lol
Nice, I’ve never seen this process before, It’s similar to dip powder nails without the powder 😅
Yeah it totally is!
AlAyaR
suzie!?!?!?! you dont toss over your shoulders no more???? my heart!!!
Fantastic! Beautiful, information, light and positive video. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
hello beautiful, did you know that I l watch your videos every night, they help me go to sleep thanks to your angelic voice ❣❤🤍💗 and yes, I also love your nails 💕
Im here for you anytime 😘
It is definitely a glue. I've been tempted to try this kit since I have tried and liked the acrylic kit but not the strong smell of the monomer & am currently using their dip powder system.
I love that Suzie just jumps right in and gets to the point 😊
I used these years ago when it first came out. What a mess! I didn’t realize it was glue and my brush got all screwed up ,I got them on and I couldn’t get them off ,it was a clumpy giant disaster. I’m so glad I saw you did this and now I know better with all the dip nails etc. etc. I may buy this again and try it now that the expert showed me what to do! Love your channel!❤️🐶
These were the first at home kit I used. Now I do my own hard gel at home! I think it’s good for beginners
Mayra L May I ask which brand you use? I’m going to do my own fills during this pandemic! Thanks!
Donna Davidson sure! I use IBD hard gel that I got off Amazon. I got a lamp there as well. There’s a learning curve but doable and especially in times like these! Plus, CZcams videos are my best friend!
This was my first gel kit I brought nearly 2 years ago now I’m a qualified nail tech 😆😆😆
Suzie, I just love u and enjoy your videos. I’ve done dip powder and gel and always wondered about these press one’s. I love you calm and soft voice!
I bought this kit a few days ago. My nail look very nice. Thank you the tutorial on this Brush on Gel Nails Kiss Kit.
Should the activator brush go back into the cleaner each time as you’re mixing products? Just a thought! They looked really sweet X
that dog makes the funniest yet cutest noise ive ever heard also the most adorable doggie ive ever seen
I just love your videos!! They’re so detailed and helpful!! Thank you for posting💜
This is one of the first kits I ever used. I use it all the time. It gives a beautiful manicure
Thank you for the video
I honestly bought this kit just for the tips. I’m planning on attaching them with super glue (and not using the gel/activator combo) and adding dip powder on top. Hopefully that will end up working well, especially since my nail salon is closed 🤷🏻♀️
@@thegirls6147 'dip powder' is basically acrylic powder. There are videos on dip powder nails by suzie
Do you remember how it worked out? I’m planning on doing this too
The best video. I watched ALL of them because I didn't wanted to destroy my own fingernails and loved how you explained everything! Thank you!!! I will give them a try!
Aww look at the doggie. Just adorable!
I’ve had people tell me that they got gel and when I asked them if it was a powder they excitingly said yes :/ it’s a shame these company’s take advantage of people who don’t know better (salons in my area take advantage too and charge them for gel) it’s a shame :(
I just got these recently, didn’t hold up as well for me but turned out beautiful on you!
same. I don't know if i did it right or what but they popped off a day after but they look awesome on her.
I got the same results with this kit and a dip powder kit. Glue does not stay adhered to my nails. 🤷🏻♀️
@@jamesizzyj I got my dip nail kit on ebay and it work really good. And super affordable
@@Craz1eCh1ck05 I have the same experience with all glue. I don't glue tips on for this reason, they separate before I need a fill. I switched to sculpting hard gel or polygel.
@@jamesizzyj I don't use tips. Just use the dip nail on my natural nail
