At least someone that explains about the stamping and the polish nail special nobody tells you about it thanks.

As a new DIY I can say this is the best tutorial I’ve watched this far!! Thank you

[razorcatshark]

Thanks for the patient (and sweet) intro to stamping! This is my first foray and I feel better about trying something new if I can find methodical overviews. 🤔 Wish me luck! 🍀

I actually came to YouTube to try to solve the problem that no matter what I did, I couldn't get the stamper to pick up the image. After watching several videos, I figured out two issues I was having (and therefore other people might have):

1) When scraping off the excess polish, I was initially scraping it so the extra polish ended up on TOP of the card (like a snow plow). It took watching the videos to see that it should have been kept under the card. This was much better at leaving the right amount of polish in the design.

2) When it didn't work the first time, I kept trying to stamp with increasing pressure. Someone offhand mentioned that you need to use light pressure with the stamper on the plate to get the image to transfer. Seemed a bit counterintuitive, but that was absolutely true in my experience.

When I first got this I was sad having many problems. The stamper would not pick up the image completely and sometimes not at all. I used everything the way it says I should like in the video. Even when using the stamping polish. But I believe I have found my problem and now have no problems working this! I was in a big open room, no fan on. But the fact it’s an open room with drafting from the connecting rooms passing by and with the sun was coming in, the air was very cold was also a problem. Just as I was gonna send it back cuz I got soo many things I tried one more time. This time in a closed room no draft and room temperature not cold or hot, closing the blinds! And just like that problem solved! It’s amazing and looks fantastic! Easy to use haha now that I do it in a closed room that’s at room temperature and no sun light hitting in. I’d recommend this to anyone with the same problem I had.

I am a licensed manicurist and I have had mediocre results with every other product except yours. My first successful set and it looks crisp and beautiful. I am so excited for Christmas to make them buy me more nail polishes. Take it from my experience, buy the right tools for the job. What your grandpa said is actually true. Thank You Maniology!

❤❤❤ I do have the smudge free top coat. I love it and it is a must 😀❤

[curlyburp]

Such a thorough tutorial. Just ordered a kit and would've made so many mistakes if I hadn't watched this video first!

[MrsPetal]

My first time going to be doing this nail art, I’ve been curious about this forever.

I used nail stickers for my wedding, that was seriously difficult but so many people noticed it on our honeymoon and that boosted my confidence.

[randomharts]

I love your glasses and hair style! 🥰 Thank you for all the awesome tips and tricks!!!

[rachelisenhower]

I stopped desperately trying to stamp when she said to take off the blue film. I said, "Huh?!" and felt so stupid. I appreciate the tip 😅

[melissahuntsman]

You are an excellent trainer!! Articulate, easy to understand, relatable!!

[Kilikasnails]

I will try stamping again thanks to this video❤

[annishiadorsey]

Tianna you are so beautiful! 🌺Thank you for the tutorial!

[miriamm]

You've made this look so easy. This is very helpful! I ordered a kit a long time ago and just got it out to try. :)

[BrooklinnGorrlll]

I love your channel. Friendly tip, lint free cotton pads are a heaven sent for nail work ❤

[NekoiNemo]

Thank you so much for the tip about washing the stamper. I, for the life of me, couldn't figure out the issue. Can't believe this is the first time i hear about removing the oiliness (couldn't even tell if was oily at a glance)

[nilawarriorprincess]

I'm so glad I'm a read everything before doing anything kinda girl.
My 1st instinct was to remove the hard plastic from the metal card. I'm so glad I took the time to read the Starter Kit Stamping Guide & scan the QR code.
I know nothing about stamping. I just saw an ad with cats, art & nails for $5 in the middle of the night & ordered. 😅
I'm so glad this is actually a legit company!!! I had very little confidence that I'd actually recive anything, but I'm glad I took a chance on a social media advert.
I'm even more thrilled to see it seems to be minority owned & operated. I hadn't planned to purchase many other supplies from Maniology, but I'm more comfortable doing so now that I've seen your face & how much work you all have put into instructions. As someone from a family of educators I highly value that.
You've also done a wonderful job with packaging & plan to keep my kit stored in its box.

I've been binging your videos & they're quite enjoyable.

I'll have to order some more acetone as mine contains lavender, vitamin e & grapeseed oil.

Is your topcoat quick dry?

I love the phrase "practice makes beautiful". Such a perfect encouragement. Thank you so much for the excellent video jam packed with helpful info. I feel like I'm going to be successful at this now, where it was daunting before.
