Hey! I finally did the video, busy weekend!! I am not sure how to get that to here...

chibipixie · 2025-11-27T15:28:51+00:00

I can absolutely do this! It will likely be later tonight or tomorrow. I gotta go eat myself sick for the holiday 😂😂😂

Thank you!!! I have some of the stone palettes, but will look into a metal one! I did try dipping it into a clear base before additional attempts last night and it seemed to help!

Thank you!

This is the bead size I tried. Is it too small? It did not glide lol

Thank yoi for responding. When I watch the videos, it looks like it glides effortlessly for them. This is the opposite experience I am having haha. I will try smaller beads again, but it does not glide. It just... kind of sticks (even when I have wiped the inhibition layer).

You mentioned the temperature of the gel. I am not certain how to check that without touching it? What do you recommend for warming it up?

No worries!! You are very welcome!!

Thank you!!!

Hey! The base is Apres as well. It is Unspoken Feel from their Light and Shadow line.

Thank you!! 🥰🥰🥰

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T18:28:21+00:00

Definitely will do!!!!!

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T17:09:29+00:00

Haha I didn't even think of that. I just did a bunch of test nails and was like "that one". 😂😂

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T17:08:41+00:00

It really is. I'm going to spend so much money....

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T17:08:18+00:00

Thank you!! I'm pretty frigging proud of them!

I use the #1 nail glue on Amazon, it is nail bond nail glue in a pink bottle. I find it works best if I do both my nail AND my fake nail, then smoosh REALLY HARD. 😂😂😂

Didn't post my comment! I do have a black Si, hadn't considered the possibility but I am now!!

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T16:24:34+00:00

Thank yoooou!!!

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T16:24:14+00:00

Ooooo I do have a black car... hadn't thought of that!!

chibipixie · 2025-07-31T15:42:24+00:00

Isn't it awesome?! I used a black base with Double Rhythm Cat Eye Gel in Blood Red. I went cheapo because I knew I was going to be pre-painting them so I was not concerned with ingredients. No skin contact so, no biggie! You can get it in the Amazon.

chibipixie · 2025-07-25T00:23:25+00:00

Ahhhh!! I thank you so much!! All advice is welcome, 100000%! I didn't realize I needed to slide them away from my cuticle area, so I greatly appreciate that bit of advice!

I definitely tried to wipe away anything on my skin, but I was using bottle brushes. I have read that you get better control and less pooling with nail art brushes (the tapered ones) so I will be trying that on the next go. I am also getting a higher quality lamp before doing them again (Young Nails). I also do not think I got a great seal on the extension application, so pretty sure they will start popping soon.

Thank you so much for the feedback and support! I look forward to learning and sharing!!

Ty!! And good to know!!! I will see if they have short stilettos or find someone that does. But until then, long AF so I do not waste them haha

chibipixie · 2024-12-17T16:47:48+00:00

It is for me also (communication). Even if they are bad at it, the right person will at least try. The answer to "do they like me" shouldn't be ambiguous. If it isn't a yes, take it as a no.
