I’ve been going to a nail salon for dip powder nails for a while now. Today, I did it myself, at home, for the first time, and I quite love the result! Ha! I think I found a way to save money for my next trip! 😂😂😂 Thank you so much for your videos! 💕

Nail prep:
1. Shape nails with file
2. Push back cuticles with cuticle pusher
3. Remove shine on nail using buffing block (a gritty one, not a soft one)
4. Remove oil from nails
4. Apply peelable base coat

Application:
1. Small amount of base coat apply away from cuticle
2. Tilt powder at an angle and dip in
3. Run toothpick around cuticle area before the product dries
4. Don't brush off excess powder until the very end just to make sure it's completely dry
5. After all 5 nails are done, dust of excess powder using a hard scrub brush
6. Repeat steps 1-5 (so this is the 2nd dip)

CLEAR DIP POWDER STEP:
1. Base liquid full layer
2. Dip in clear powder

ACTIVATOR:
1. Apply generous amount of activator
2. Wait 2 mins
3. Shape, buff, and file nails
4. Brush off excess powder
5. Add more activator
6. Wait 2 more minutes
7. Wipe nails with paper towel

Finishing up:
1. Top coat first layer (3 quick strokes)
2. Be more detailed and slow when you add 2nd layer of top coat. Make sure to cap the free edge
3. Apply cuticle oil

I just started doing my own nails and I have to say your videos are the most informative and I just love listening to you talk as well. My nails turned out amazing because of your helpful videos!

This is a perfect intro to dipping for a newbie

[nikollettegerasimov]

Just started dipping and I watched all of your videos, they are very helpful!! Its an excellent video for beginners!!!
Can u do a video for dip powder fill on natural nails after they grew for about 2 weeks, a different color fill on top of the old powder. How to do a lighter color fill on top of a darker color and vice versa
Thank you so much ❤️

I’ve had so many issues trying to do my nails at home after watching endless YT videos. Thank you for this video! I have to say it was the most informative.

You just did a video on one hand.. and with the magic of editing minutes here and there, it does seem quick n easy,
but I’m glad you advised your audience that we should slow down when doing our nails.
when I do my nails at home it takes me close to 2 hours and sometimes just a bit longer, from removing my old gel polish (or dip powder nails), preparing the cuticles, on both hands, painting the nails and curing them, etc, etc…then cleaning up after myself and disinfecting my tools.
Yes it quicker getting them done, but it’s my hobby and I love learning from great people like yourself…
Keep up the good work ❤

Great vid! Nails super cute! Wedding rings are WOW🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for all these great tips! Several years ago I tried to do dip manicures on myself and was disappointed in my results. I recently decided to try it again and have watched this video (and a few of your others) several times before rebuying product. Today’s attempt turned out soooo much better and I know it is because of your tips!

Thank you, just finished my first one and with your help I am satisfied ❤️❤️❤️Now I just have to see if it will last 😃

I'm waiting for my 1st order of dipping powders & liquid. My question is - can I use it over a split nail. Up till now I've been patching & gluing the split before applying polish but imagine that this will make this system quite bulk lumpy. I've found your tutorial videos very helpful so I look forward to your answer. Thanks so much

[jenniferwhiting]

I'm extremely new to your videos. I heard from a candidate at work and am so thankful.

[aimeehodgin]

Thanks so much!! You have gorgeous nails! :) Have a wonderful wknd!

[stephaniemckinney]

Hi there! I am loving your videos!! I am new to dipping. I don't think I am buffing my nails the right way. I feel like as soon as I use the activator it gets bumpy and I buff my nails but then thr final coat is never that shiny. Could you do an in depth video in buffing please?!

[laurieg.]

Excellent video as always Chelsea!! Have a great weekend!

[aprilglidewell]

Would love a video on how to get perfect color on dark dip colors. No white spots!

[linzl]

Do you have a video on neon dip colours?
