They really need these pencils back in the stores for manicures. I bought some from Amazon and they just are not it. I remember them being chalky and drying on under the nail. Do look because you could even put your smile line. The pencils from Amazon are not getting soft in water, in fact they are waxy like an eyeliner. I’m mad, I’ve been craving a white tip pencil.
Having used pencils like this for years - if you use them regularly UNDER your nail tip - they will bleach your nail and they will look beautifully white and you can apply any nail enhancements over the top - sheet ones look fabulous! If you put it on top of the nail your nail ebhancement - nail polish get etc will not stick!!
I just bought this used and looked up this video. Love it. You are so like me 🤷🏻♀️😂. Glad you’re real and honest ❤. I won’t use this often, but your video has helped a lot. Thanks
Thank you Mam! Nice video, good job doing this. Also, thank you for the link. I just wired mine directly to the motor from the power supply (wall thingy) and plug it in when I want to start it. It is 12vdc, motor can run either way. I use mine for mixing hobby paints. These are $150 now! 😱
What a life saver her no smell monomer has being. i cant stand the other one is too strong. i just order some and they package it different. it comes in plastic pouches it no longer spills. i like you nail holder where can i get one?
I think your nails turned out nice. Your hands were steady and the lines were straight. But my hands wouldn’t have been as steady as yours. I will buy this pencil and try
Girl at least you only bought that many, I bought 250 from Amazon, in the beginning they were good, but after 7-8 months they got to a super thick consistency and I can only use it on 1 set of nails because once it opens even with the cap on it cures completely, I have like 160 left that are in that thick consistency that are so hard for me to use that I’m so upset because I didn’t know they were shelf stable … So now I have to either keep struggling to get use out of the glue that I have so they don’t go to complete waste of just day fuck it and buy new glue, the only problem is I like kds because when they are good the glue is amazing and dries immediately I don’t have to hold anything in place like other glues, so yeahhhh, BEWARE, if you decide to purchase as many as I did, do it if you’re going to use them immediately or if you’re going to get rid of them immediately like for presson packs and or selling them and so forth….. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
I laughed so hard watching your video tonight 😂 I also had a 10 pack of KDS nail glue which is supposed to be the best and tonight I was preparing for a client tomorrow and every single one is hard as a brick 😮 I was so upset and now I have to figure something else out, thanks for the laugh I needed it ❤
Could you 9:45 Please do close ups on your vid’s as it is very hard to see the product for what actually is (shape and such). Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful tips and work. 👍🏻❤️
i know this is 3 yrs old but i just recently used monomer with kiera sky 2 in 1 and the pigment is so much better than regular acrylic, also i hate the dip powder process so this is a great way to get the color without dipping. ty.
I know this video was done awhile ago but I was wondering about the differences between these two top coats so I was happy to find it! Just wondering, is the Glisten & Glow top coat thicker? Looking for a gel-like consistency.✨🩷
2023: USE A DRYER BEAD. Odorless monomers are oil based, so too wet of a bead will run really quick. Yes the bead will give you so much time to work so use as many beads as necessary, just don’t use wet beads, or your dry time will be ridiculous. HTH
Sorry to say it isn’t, partial board . The only thing on tis unit, that’s not true wood is the bottom of the drawers, to balance out the heaviness. Tfw

I’m not sure if you’ll read this comment because of how old the video is, but thank you for this amazing video! I just purchased my hand and am waiting for it to be delivered. I did purchase the kit that they sell now where you get everything you need for your hand…..the primer, gel glue, magnetic stand and 200 base tips and it was all on sale for $49. However, I still plan on using your hack! I’m curious, 2yrs later, how’s your hand holding up? Any issues? Anyway, thanks again for the very informative video!
Envy! I loved the look and materials of the Adeptus but getting one to Australia was going to cost me four times the cost of the Alex ones. So I just had to go with Alex. Nice to see the Adeptus in action. That crossbar is annoying though. Thankyou.
