Using the stamper only is all about the angle of entry you don't go straight in you get much smoother results if you go in at a sharp angle, also it prevents puncturing your stamper. Also stamper only works great with gel bc it's thicker and no timing issues. I love that there are so many ways to achieve the same thing, it's great 👍
Probably just a matter of preference, but the stamping "hack" is quick and easy. It's also fun to get weird with mixing up colors in different ways. And? All you need is a cheap stamper. No need to buy plates. I have a stamper dedicated for it. Never put a hole in it. Lol.
I’m sure it is a matter of preference. No need to buy 1 $7-8 plate? Come on now. Minuscule investment that you can use forever, with zero risk of putting a hole in the stamper. You can also mix colors, do marbling, ombres, chrome stamping, and more on the plate. For me, the plate makes nicer lines and looks a lot more professional. 😁
I'm glad you showed different techniques. I haven't tried the stamper method but I think the designs on the plate would be so much easier to do and it looks much better. TFS!
The plates look much more professional to me! Although, I wouldn’t mind the little wobble on some different designs!
I agree with you, I think that the stamping method is better. We tried this on my besties nails with the stamper and while it worked it seemed to take longer to dry, IMO. And I did feel like I was using twice as much polish to get the effect it needed
It seemed to me like it would be a waste of polish. I feel like it does use more, but can’t prove it! 😜
Awesome video hun. Love you showed , the stamper method. I haven’t tried it yet. Thanks for telling me to use an old one. Tfs my beautiful friend 😍🤩😍
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it. I’m happy to try out trends any time. Just tag me!!! Yes, please use an old stamper. I’m salty about mine!
I have played around a bit while wearing long coffin gel tips and had no issued with damaging the stamper - i think it is less likely to happen than when just pushing a tip into it as your fingertip gives a bit of a cushion and your angle of approach is different. RIP your stamper! I have murdered several stamping on stilettos 😁
You are very correct! A person might be able to feel the pressure better and run less of a risk to their stamper. I was thinking about it more today too, and that monocle stamper was VERY squishy. It might just be too soft for it. I bet the ice cube stamper is better since it's A LOT more firm than the monocle!
Wow, your hand painting is... Impressive! Like, you got it so straight without having to try or clean the edges!
Thanks! I used to freehand them a lot when I first started painting my own nails, but I am still out of practice!
Great to know! I suspected the stamper would be damaged as well. Especially as my nails can be quite sharp at times. I think ill still give it a go maybe with one of my cheaper less favourite stampers
For sure! Use an old stamper!
You can also coat a white polish in between your thumb and press your nail in. It is a quick hack that works and you do not have to worry about tearing a stamper
That's a nice trick! I think I have seen Robin Moses do something similiar, but with acrylic paints.
Omgggg I can’t believe u said that! I got the powder in neons they are very pigmented I got deep blue all over my thumb and by accident hit my finger on the blue and left a perfect thin french tip 😂!! I finished my design with blue tips and came out amazing!!! Also I got the holographic neon powders on Temu it glows in the dark too it comes with like 10 or so neon colors are beautiful and cost I think 2$!!!
I feel exactly the same way. I use Moyra gel stamping polish so I don't have to be in a hurry, but knowing your tools is #1, whatever you use. I absolutely think you use less product with stamps and you get a paper-thin application - no dips or bumps on the free-edge like you would with the "dipping" technique and even hand panting can be a bit thick too.
Agreed! The thickness was kind of just icky!I have a few of the uber chic stamping polishes. I can see how they are useful in a salon, but outside of a salon they are kinda meh for me too. They're messier in my opinion, I ALWAYS get gel everywhere when I stamp with it!
With the stamps, maybe you're using gel polish? Or a very light/fluid nail polish? Because you get the best results with a thick non gel nail polish. Also don't scrape too hard. I paint my base with gel than stamp with a thick opaque regular nail polish and works wonderfully, the good thing is that if you mess up the stamping you can take it off with acetone, re-do it and the base will remain intact, it just takes the shine off but after you apply top coat that's taken care of. 👍
Hi Ruth,
I'm using a stamping polish in both situations. It is a thick regular polish. I researched it before I made the video. I'm scraping just fine thanks. I've been stamping for about 5-6 years now. I prefer the stamping method versus the glob it on a stamper method.
I'm new nail art period and I laughed the minute you said someone said it only worked with their brand. I started out doing nail stuff with variety of brands from kits I had just bought to stuff I already have and I have mixed and matched so many things 😅
She sure did try to claim it only worked with HER brand of stamping polish. I almost said something on the page, but I thought, I’m not going to change any minds, so I stayed quiet until I made this. I say be very very wary of ANY brand who claims “only their” polish works for a technique. Such a lie! I won’t buy from that brand. Ever.
Just because you are so honest, I have clicked the like button and subscribed!! You have a new Fan!! 💖💅🥰
Yay! Thank you!
I haven't tried the stamper tictock method, or the stamper plate method. I just do freehand. Those large open spaces on that stamping plate are intimidating. I haven't much practice with those. I pick easy things and move on and then envy those more difficult manis and nail arts you do. I like how crisp and even the lines are on the stamping plate method. If you've seen my instagram, you'll notice I rarely do french tips 'cause I pick easy things and move on... lol.
You should try it as a stamp! It’s fast and dries really quick. It still has a small learning curve, but it gets easier.
First time I tried the french tip hack I punctured the gel cushion! 😩🙄
I'd really like to learn to use a long liner art brush.
Great idea too!!
Thanks for sharing this video. I have seen the hack video, but decided that I was afraid of damaging my stampers by doing that technique. I got the new Ceramic French Tip plate and think I might have to get the plain French Tip plate next. I really appreciate your honesty about this.
I’m glad you found the video helpful! I just bought the Ceramic French tip plate too! If you like honesty, make sure you subscribe! I always give honest opinions whether I’m an affiliate or not!
I need that plate. Only tried the new method once & it turned out ok.
You should get them if you don’t have a French plate. I’m like you, I used to hand paint mine all the time. I could never get it as nice as stamped! Close, but not quite!
Do you have a favorite stamper for using the french tip plates?
Lately, for the big space images, I’m liking the clear Jelly stamper big bling!
Awesome video! I've been seeing this technique a lot and I always thought it would be damaging to the stamper!
I’m seriously annoyed over that stamper. It’s practically brand new, and seriously, I BARELY pushed it in. I also round off my tips so they aren’t sharp. It’s 💯 a no go with a Maniology monocle stamper.
I killed mine the first time I tried that.
They look good I must give it a try
I just got the stamping plate and had trouble picking up the polish. I’ll try scrubbing it next time.
Scrape left to right across it and not up and down. That helps a lot with these blank space images!
I tried the tik tok one and it seem like the polish wants even. Maybe I’m doing something wrong but I started looking for stamping plates. Way easier and I think it’s easy to get the same results on all nails.
Exactly! They both work, but the TikTok one was thicker and less accurate. Stamping plates look much more professional!
Jillie's Nails yes, the stamping plate looks perfect! (I meant wasn’t even lol)
I don't get how to use mine. You're doing great. My whit tip bleeds when I use my stamper. I'm better either fee hand, or using nail guides.
I've used it but had to fix just as much as any other french tip.. its more trouble than its worth LOL I don't really keep square shape to my nails which also affects the effectiveness
Who are you and why have I just now discovered yooooouuuuuuu?????!!!!!!! You are amazing. Instant friend in my head. 🙂 #subscribed
Hello! Not sure why, but you went into the spam filter! I'm so glad to hear you enjoy the channel! If you ever have requests, just let me know!
When I first saw this I couldn’t believe that it was being called a hack bc imo hacks are supposed to be easier, and the results 😩 Before the negative space images became so popular I would just use nail vinyls. I’m too anal to use the so called hack bc I like my French manis even 🤣
I feel like it's SO much harder to get an even application with this trick. Some spots were super thick, some lifted off or were uneven. At least with stamping I can troubleshoot a bit better. I mean, it's an OK technique, I just think stamping is easier, and most people already have the stuff!
It's still a hack because it allows people like me who have a stamper but no French tips stamping plates to still experiment with a French manicure without buying new things. Stampers are also slightly easier to clean than stamping plates. No need to worry about acetone getting on your fresh manicure.
Buenas como puedo aser las franquicias todas las que ay xq compre el estamping pero no me salen igual
This is a great tutorial. Thanks so much
Glad it was helpful!
Where to get the best french mani plate?
👏🏻 awesome tips & tricks 💅
Glad you like them!
היי i want to say that is wonderful i like it very much i am not a professional i make only half from myself and i like it very much where i can buy it if you can tell me please thank you
These plates and polishes are from Maniology
Hi! I’m new to your channel and a new subbie! Do you know if this technique will work with gel polish? Thank you
Hello Marilisa! It does work with gel polish too!
@@JilliesNails great! Thanks for the information. I’m purchasing it through your link 😊
@@polished_and_ready Thanks! I always appreciate that!
The first time I saw this I was like .... this is going to ruin the stamper. I would rather do it freehand or use the Maniology plate I have.
I think it would work better on firmer stampers, it yeah, it’s just so easy with the plate!
What about with acrylic paint? TY!
Honest answer, go check out Robin Moses. She has tons of videos and almost all of them are acrylic paint! I would call her the expert at it! She hand paints hers.
Hello first time I see u ware can I get the plate u have
It's Maniology. Code Jillie10 will get you 10% off.
Would you do a demonstration of the nail stamp on your OWN, nails?
I have 100's of videos on this channel most of them with my own nails, and several of them use this plate. Here is one of them. I use tips when my nails are broken or short, and I need a longer nail to demo a technique. czcams.com/video/XeHrEwibO3E/video.html
Well I destroyed my gel stamper, messed up my nails and got white paint all over me. Practice makes perfect I guess.
I agree - also not a fan 😌
I prefer stamping for sure!
the stamper method is typically used with gel polish
Yes, it sure is. But, as I’ve shown here, it’s not the only method.
Dip is slower and don't make such a wide polish spot on the stamper
I would still prefer the stamped method.
You clean the top of the stamper every time you use it
Porque no lo traducen a español yo soy Mexicana
No se!
Hi Jillie 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾, how are you? I was starting to wonder “ where’s Jillie”? I was so happy to see a notification pop up saying you posted a video . I agree, I can’t help it we agree on a lot of things😉. When I first saw this hack I was like “cool”. However, there is no way I’m ruining my stamper, no way. P.S, I’m sorry for your stamper. The things you sacrifice for YT 😢 but if you pIan on getting a new stamper try the shrinking stamper from Maniology. I don’t use it for shrinking but the clear stamper is so firm, it’s great for straight lines. Enough rambling, back to the main topic 🔙⏪⏮.
Me: sorry for changing the subject🤷🏾♀️
Myself:😡
Me: don’t be mad, we’re one. Me and you, you and me both of us together 😄
Myself: just stop 😬, your not funny.
Ok, where was I before I rudely interrupted myself 🤔.
Oh yes🤪, I don’t see the point when I have a plate that does the same thing. I’m not hating on the concept, like it said it’s pretty cool but stamping is easier.
Hi hi lovely lady! I'm doing alright! You? I'm here. I'm always here, even if I am not posting. Truthfully, it's been a rough year for me health wise, so I am struggling to stay on top of filming and working full time. This video was ready for Tuesday, and my PC just...lost it. Spent 24 hours searching every nook of the PC, but it was gone...so I had to edit it again.
I'm not happy over the stamper, but I should have used the old one when trying something new! It will still be useable, I'm just going to have to work around the hole. (Pssssst, my checkbook is the real sacrifice for the channel LOL. Which will be discussed soon!) I still have a pile of stampers, so luckily, I won't have to replace it right now.
The stamper is so much easier and likely to give you a better result. I think I feel like the trick pressing it in a guessing game as to whether or not you will get a good look.
@@JilliesNails I’m so sorry to hear about your health issues. You did tell me about some of the stuff you were going through but I didn’t know you had addition health problems, I’m sorry. I don’t blame you for not being happy able that stamper. Although still usable I would be been mad. I totally believe your checkbook has/is taking a huge hit for the team😢. Feel better, I’ll check up on you from time to time to see how you doing #hugs
Thanks. The health issues are what they are. I’m getting older and I’m working on what I can fix! You’re always welcome to check in. Add me on FB (as long as you’re ok with me having occasional fits of political rage on there.)
@@JilliesNails 😂😂😂😂😂
@@JilliesNails I’m following you on fb😃
My nails have stabbed through stampers using the TikTok trick 🫥 glad I’m not the only one
No, if you have sharp nails, it's super easy to do!!!
