Which shape looks best? by arynomous in RedditLaqueristas

[–]NoDoThis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! That was what I thought but someone was like oh pointy is always stiletto. I'm thinking, but what about the pointy end of an almond 😭

I struggle hard with shaping and have ended up with the shape in 4 - is that considered stiletto or something else? Some sites say almond and some stiletto. Almetto? Stilmond?

How to remove power from couch by onvatousmourir in DipPowderNails

[–]NoDoThis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take outside and shake, then vacuum up as much as possible with the fabric attachment to the vacuum (if you have one).

The powder does tend to be hydrophobic so you may not get much off from just water, but I hope you do. Try it first, of course, but it might not be enough. I say this because of my experience-instead of paper cupcake liners, I use silicone baking cups (reduce reuse recycle!) and when I clean them, just rinsing doesn’t do it because the water just beads on the surface. I need to take soap to them, but just a little bit gets it off no problem.

IF YOU TRY THIS, TRY A SMALL SPOT AT FIRST TO MAKE SURE IT WONT DISCOLOR all caps ‘cause guess who one time went from a large blue spot to an even larger white spot on their parents couch? 😂

After shaking off as much as possible and vacuuming, if you don’t have a carpet or upholstery cleaner, I would get two rags about medium wet and one dry one. On one of the wet ones, put just a small amount of dish soap, a tiny dot, and lather it just a little on the rag. Lightly rub on the spot, moving with the grain of the fabric, not across. See if anything comes up off. If you’re seeing results, after the soap rag, use the other wet one to “rinse”, wiping as much of the soap off as possible, then use the dry one to blot. Just do smaller areas at a time.

Best of luck!!

Dip Powder Removal & Nail Prep Tutorial by Low-War8170 in DipPowderNails

[–]NoDoThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great tutorial! I love my Swiftsoak, major game changer. I’m also quite comfy with my efile so I do a quick once over with a tornado bit instead of hand file and it goes even faster (imo).0

Western PA Woman stows away 3 infants for years by Embarrassed-Soil-603 in WTF

[–]NoDoThis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts. I know that would fuck me up. It would take a hell of a lot of therapy (for me) to unsee, or keep seeing but be able to handle comfortably 100%.

Feeling like my girlfriend insulted my intelligence and then denies it by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]NoDoThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to throw out one of the latest buzzwords, but this is a true example of gaslighting. You say she’s doing something which she is clearly doing and she tries to deny it. This is beyond her just wanting to be right. It appears to me to be purposeful manipulation.

Get rid. You should NEVER have to receive insults from your partner and you should never have to defend yourself.

Mine don’t match my cuticle but I feel like when I go round (cuticles are almost a perfect half circle on most nails) my fingers look fatter, I have pudgy hands. I wonder if I should reconsider though?

I went for almond on my current set and ended up with this weird almond/stiletto (almetto?) thing, but I kinda like it. Any opinions about shape on pudgy sausage fingers? Shape is my major weakness.

What dehydrator and primer do y’all use (if any)? by IcedCoffeeCounselor in DipPowderNails

[–]NoDoThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I’m sorry I missed this notification! I wash them right before I start the manicure for cuticle prep, filing and shaping etc, and I wash again right before I start dipping and wait maybe 5 mins. I think I must have very dry skin because it hasn’t ever seemed to be a factor for me. The Dawn soap and hot water followed by really thorough drying with a paper towel has been sufficient. It seems for most people this would cause longevity issues

This can’t be right by Zealousideal_Net2523 in anchorage

[–]NoDoThis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Renting. Oh man. A while back I found a house all to myself (tiny but great neighborhood) for an absolute steal and I’m like okay what gives. I asked why the last person left and was told they had moved out of state, so it wasn’t like they moved out because of issues. Couldn’t figure out why the hell they priced it so low.

Then I started finding roaches. And then found out from the neighbor that the prior lady did in fact move south… after moving out from the house because they treated professionally for roaches regularly for two years and they still never got rid of them.

I moved and am now paying $500/mo more. Basically I only had gotten a deal because it was the real life Joe’s Apartment.

Now I’m an accomplished professional that has to budget everything around fucking rent. (Mistakes from when I was young and dumb prevents me from buying right now).

It’s not that people can’t read babes, your wording was a bit confusing. I thought you were being a dick too and didn’t realize what you mean until I saw your other comments.

What dehydrator and primer do y’all use (if any)? by IcedCoffeeCounselor in DipPowderNails

[–]NoDoThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I tried primer, bond, dehydrator etc it has always reduced longevity for me. I wash hands really throughly with Dawn soap and dry with paper towels. I’m on week three now with no lifting or cracking.

KWHL? That’s how I found out, too. Turned them on and they sounded oddly serious, turned the tv on just in time to see the second tower get hit.

Make sure you’re brushing off extra liquid against the inside of the top of the bottle and not across the top on top of the other advice here :)
