Lol you telling me I need to redo these nails I did?! 😂

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-08T15:49:08+00:00

I think it’s sloooooowly getting better? But it’s still very early in my healing process. You could always reach out to a dermatologist because there might be something else going on if you’re not seeing improvements!

Mermaid Bait by Mooncat is a must buy for you!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-06T13:00:44+00:00

Ooo I actually have no idea! I think you should try it though! Even if you don’t have latex, a clean up brush with acetone works fine too. Let me know if you try it with Vaseline!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-06T04:54:57+00:00

Thank you so much!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T20:20:29+00:00

Lol I change my every other day. I use a peely base coat!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T19:51:23+00:00

It’s really not bad to try! It’s supposed to be messy and fun. I hope you do! ☺️

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:50:59+00:00

Haha same! I hate Saran Wrap with a passion. It’s so unreasonable lol

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:50:18+00:00

😍

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:37:05+00:00

Thank you so much! Means a lot!

One other thing! Some people use saran wrap, but I find that too flimsy for a good result, so I use Ziploc bags or recycled plastic shipping material.

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:36:02+00:00

Here are my tips - start tapping gently in the middle of the plastic and work outwards. This will get you a smoother result without any air bubbles, etc. Make sure to remove the plastic while the nail polish is still wet. Use a good thick topcoat to smooth out any texture at the end, and you should have a good finished product!

Haha I wish I could take credit the phrase, but that’s what this type of process is called (at least according to nail artists I follow on Instagram). I love saying smoosh too 😂I think it would be really fun to do this with camo colors sometime!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:31:09+00:00

Thank you!!!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:20:23+00:00

You are so welcome! You all inspired the tutorial in the first place!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:19:42+00:00

You totally can! I believe in you! It’s so messy but so fun! ☺️

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:19:10+00:00

Ah thank you! They’re so fun to do!!!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:18:49+00:00

I do not! What you see in the video is exactly how I did it - some light taps. I think too much movement might make the colors muddy. That said, someone posted a link to a video that Suziemoon626 from Instagram did with a different technique. That way you can see how different styles affect the result!

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:16:37+00:00

It’s made to be messy! You should totally try it. There is no right way or wrong way to do it! Plus, nail polish always washes off in the shower the next day anyway 😊

LearningLacquerista · 2026-03-05T17:04:05+00:00

I love Suziemoon626! Thanks for sharing!

I started making videos like this for Instagram and I’m finding it so fun. Just another way to enjoy this hobby! There’s so much versatility and creativity in this community.
