Oh wow the builder gel/base gel tip was super helpful. I have the same issue of streaky application and all my pudding in my brush. Very helpful! Thank you
Beautiful color. I really love the gel paints so much better than gel polish. They don't Gove the nails a bulky look. Great video Denise and awesome tips .🥰
Gd nite from the Caribbean... 👏👏👏👏 I will say this in all the videos I've watched/subscribe to all of which either was sent or purchase those pudding gel...not 1 of those big RU-vid name never once prepared the gel brush for the pudding applications, they all went in bristles first in the pudding... which I found gave streaky applications....thank you thank you very much for that brush prep..it made the applications waaayy better....+ it makes me want to have them now.... thk u...❤👏👏👏
Yes!! Priming the brush with base gel is KEY. When new products come out, people have to understand that application can potentially also require a new process. It always irritates me when I see a bad review of an otherwise great product because of user error. DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST! My two cents :) Thanks for your video!
You’d get approx 13 sets of 10 fingers with 2 coats. If you break down the price of approx $11 per pot (being a VIP member) that’s about $0.84 per set of nails. For a 14ml bottle of gel polish at $20 per bottle you’d pay $0.54 per set (or half that cost as a VIP member) I would guess that it would depend on how much you charge for gel polish service in a salon if it’s worth it. I would say keep my supply costs as low as possible for a basic service if it were me. If there was an advantage to using pudding gel it would be different but the only advantage I see is to use it for art because it’s a bit thicker. It’s worth the cost using it for art only compared to what you buy art gel for.
@@Denisejohn65NailEd You are right. I just went with a general number of coats in a 14ml bottle at 735 coats and did division from there. I found it online because I have no idea how many coats there are in a bottle. I would even say that depends on pigment and such. But it’s a place to start.
I know I'm a little late to buying pudding gels but that's because I don't really understand what the difference is between pudding gels and the gel paints?, not gel polish but gel paints. Can you you help me to understand what's so different about them?
Would you recommend priming your brush with builder gel with other brands of pudding gels or color gel pots? I’m specifically asking about the Saviland gel pots if you are familiar with those.
Prep is not the same as tips . Push back cuticles , lightly buff the nail with a fine buffer . Clean , then apply your base gel and then apply the pudding gel , then top coat .
Maybe more pigmentation…. Therefore less coats . But not all in the pots have good pigmentation . I really think it’s not good price wise for salons to use the pots . Maybe for art work , but a lot of regular gel polishes are good for art work too .
@@Denisejohn65NailEd just had another thought. (I also commented below.) Portability and cleanliness! It’s much easier to knock over a gel polish bottle than a pot, especially when transporting your kit. Also, it’s easier to see if you’ve gotten anything in your gel pot. The dark gel bottles don’t give you that luxury. You definitely avoid gel on the outer/inner rim of the bottle with a pot too.
