How I Give Myself A Manicure At Home

Hi Everyone!

So the oneeee request I consistently get is: "can you film a manicure video!" Well, the day has come... my DIY manicure video is here! I never go to the salon to get my nails done (toes yes, finger nails, no). I have mastered the at-home mani and now I'm going to show you how you can too. :) I was sent the Morgan Taylor Selfie Summer Collection c/o the Preen.Me VIP program, and thought this would be a great opportunity to use the polishes! Take a look at how I prep and polish my nails at home.

WARNING: this was a tricky video to film, I tried my best to keep it in focus the entire time.

Enjoy! XO

At first, I was like, "eh I don't really feel like doing my nails." and now that I've watched this I'm just like, " nAiL TiMe!" XD

You cannot soak nails first and file them afterwards, you damage your nails and then it causes chipping. File your dry nails first and then soak them to push and remove your cuticles. Done!

With this quarantine situation, DIY manicures are a must. Thanks for this great video!!

I find it very relaxing watching people paint their nails, anyway yours turned out really neat and cute

[samanthan]

Neat video, but here’s a GREAT tip: Before applying polish, wipe your nails with acetone. This will remove any oil that may be on the nail bed. Doing this step will help your polish to last a little bit longer!

Your voice relaxed me so I fell asleep and couldn‘t watch the video to the end. So I began again😂🤷🏽‍♀️
But beautiful nails and nice video👍🏽👍🏽

[katiamoreno]

I could probably do that but I’m so impatient and I always smudge them before they dry

[grapewallofchina]

I love manicures!!
And playing loud music while I'm at it.

OMG I always do my thumbs last too because I use them for cleanup as well. It works so good!! Best tool, better than an actual tool.

Sweetie ( I'm old, I can call you that lol) don't you let anyone steal your fire! You have your own way and it obviously works for you. You are blessed with strong nails. Mine are very thin and polish flakes off of mine because they bend so easily. So, unfortunately I have to spend a small fortune to get mine done. I like to paint them at home after because those sneaky girls don't paint up to the cuticle causing you to have to go back in a week or two sooner. lol. Have you tried those transfer design plates? You said your dog has fomo? What does that stand for please? I suspect my husky has a mild form lol. I wear a similar color every summer usually. Love it!

I am a 68 year old female who is retired and on a budget. After 40 years of having my nails done professionally, I want to do them myself at home. All of your videos are wonderful and very helpful. Thank you for showing us how to do our own manicures, gel polish and powders at home.

[chrissavvidou]

LOVE the way my nails came out. Thank you Amanda!

[darcisw]

That color is gorgeous. Excellent job on your manicure. Beautiful nails!

[RubyMcGhee-nv]

Coming off a "dip" manicure at salon - which I initially liked but a pain when It starts growing out. Your video tells me what I need to know. Good job.

[christineburg]

Thank you for the video, I never do my nails. For me its a new area to enter. I learned your systematic approach and I get the therapeutic aspect.
Thanks, you inspired me.
