I was able to make eyeshadow applicators work. Just follow Cristine's advice and put both colors on the applicator. I ended up not putting down a base color first due to the lack of surface area and tilted the applicator to fill in the corners of my nail. It worked shockingly well for my dollar store budget.
I thought it was a great hack! I don't have liquid latex anywhere, I don't even have masking fluid even tho I paint a lot. I'm not even sure if they sell liquid latex for nails anywhere where I live. In the past I've used tape, and it's exhausting to tape the fingers and take it off 😮💨 I think it's ingenious to use smaller sponge for the gradient, especially if you're just doing the tip. I very much disagree with Cristine here. Average consumer most likely don't have liquid latex, so saying "that's why we invented liquid latex" doesn't help. And no it's not hard for average person to do the gradient that way, it depends on person. I would guess most people can make it work. And no, the colors aren't ugly, and person on the video did it better because the goal was to do gradient French tips. Cristine just did a gradient. So... I like Cristine, I don't mean to critize her. She does usually keep in my mind what the average viewer thinks, and sometimes she just does stuff in her perspective. She just switches between these two modes so fast it sometimes little bit jarring 😄
Cristine is a mood. The "should we tell them." part killed me. The hack videos either make me feel really freaking dumb, or like a genius because I know they don't work...
Set My Heart Afire if this comment was stolen, I am sorry. I didn’t read any other comments I just saw the cup in the video and thought it was cool. I am truly sorry if someone else did comment this before me, I didn’t know.
Set My Heart Afire dude over 19500 people commented on this video... do you think *all* of these over 19 THOUSAND people come up with unique and original comments and have all different thoughts?! Of course not! People have the same ideas sometimes! So let the people live and stop giving a shit about comments :D
Yesterday I was painting a sleigh and all I had was a foam brush... For some reason I felt the need to say "dab dab dab make the sleigh fab"... I think I may have a problem..
The steaming nails to get a matte finish actually works. You have to steam your nails while the top coat is still wet. And the matte finish lasts longer this way.
In other words, it’s Cristine torturing herself for 19 minutes and 30 seconds straight because her fans told her too. I don’t see TROOM TROOM doing this.
Cristine. You are so crazy. "I like to torture myself for views." What has the world become? 😂 Then simplynailogical 2018 says "See I didn't even have to do any of that nail scraping violent behaviour."
“ It’s like making cotton candy! But don’t eat it... “ Me, whom has ingested cotton before to see what it tastes like: 👁👄👁 Edit: For those who wanna know - Cotton doesn’t taste like anything. It just has a weird texture.
I chocked on cotton and had to be rushed to the hospital. Yes I can conform it is tasteless but mine was steriled so it tasted a little sour and bitter. And had a weird texture.
We had sun this week! I think the world might be ending. Do you have tea stocked up because we cannot risk running out! (*translation* hello fellow brit. It's it great we had sun. Oh and the tea stereotype is true because tea tastes great) ((team Yorkshire tea all the wayyyy))
I've even accidentally bought ones that were pointy on one side, and flat on the other side like the disposable eyeshadow sticks. I use q-tips in my ears even though I know it's bad for you, but that little bit of water in my ear after a shower drives me nuts! And my doctor has seen my ears and said they're good.
"I make my stories on Snapchat, download them and upload them to Instagram story." Me: well... Yeah you often say "snapchat" on Instagram story.-. It's a cold tea now, sorry🤣
To be honest, I have recently started letting my nails grow out. By painting them I am less likely to bite them. The first way I painted them was based in light pink and used tape to paint the other half of each nail with black. I am lucky that I am an artist and knew that the sticky tape would peel up my previous painted nail. So I took the tape and made it "un-sticky" by placing it on my hand over and over till it was only slightly tacky. I am not a nail person by any means but I knew it was an ok alternative. I suppose I could have used washi tape instead hmmm.
the reason you can use a touch screen with tin foil hands is because in order to work, there has to be an electrical current running from the screen to your hand. the foil is a conductor, so the current cat travel through it to your hands. BOOM. the more ya know. sorry if i bored people with my dumb random trivia but idc cause this is a kinda cool fact
You know, I was going to reply to you with smth really sassy but decided not to because I'll definitely regret it later. Instead, I'll just say thanks for pointing that out :)
I was wondering the same thing .... it took me quite a few comment scrolls before I actually found the other comment .... so this was the first one I did see!
This video cracks me up, because I watched this “nail hack video” a couple weeks ago and automatically thought of Cristine and all the horrible “hacks” in the video
When I started doing nail art I didn’t really know about nail vynals but discovered very quickly that PAINTER’S tape will do the job quite nicely, so there’s a helpful trick
@Sarahi Gomez Just so you know, someone posted this post word for word a month before you. Personally I don’t think it is a big deal, but other people do. So you might want to think about that! :)
Cristine please try Pinterest hacks!!! It would be great because Pinterest is so random.... you're so funny it would be a great video 😂 Edit: I’m sorry I forgot the H 😂😂 I am like the Starbucks baristas when Cristine orders TEA
I'm on the simplysnapsquad and I noticed that your old phone is still alive at that time. Rip iPhone SE (Edit): Omg thank you guys so much for all the likes!!!
