  • it looks like magic :o

  • is there any need to prime the nails before puting them on this way???

  • @cappsyd Hi, if you are using a range of acrylics that require a primer then you should still use it :-)

  • If you use acrylics, would they come off after swimming? I am a competitive swimmer and I can never get my nails nice. So if I got them to just come over the end of my nails, would I still be able to go training?

  • @BextahANDTamzara Hi, no the water won't affect them as these particular nails are full acrylics, it's usually the glued on nails that have a problem because the nail glue is made from Cyanoacrylate adhesive that slowly degrades when in contact with water. As you are a competitive swimmer it's difficult to say if you will be allowed to wear extensions while competing so I would check that out first :-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems Oh it wouldn't be at competeting as the rules state you aren't allowed them. I just meant for when I'm training cause I don't want to go through the trouble of applying them only to take them off after two days. And I think I'd be ok as a fellow swimmer went training with cheap glue ons. Thanks for replying :D

  • this is like so cool, easier way to do it, how long does it last?

  • @rita62810 Hi, well because they are solid acrylic sculptured nails they last very well, plus the added benefit o the Inverted Mould being bonded to the surface (you don't remove the mould it acts like a shell giving better protection against chipping and breaking) you can expect to get 2-3 weeks easily. Some clients go longer 4-5, but of course this depends on the growth rate of the clients natural nail, everyone is different. :-)

  • No drilling?? I want I want I want!! 

  • @katherineashleyRN Correct no drilling :-) Another reason using Inverted Moulds does not cause damage to the natural nail. No Glued on plastic tips, No Drilling and no buffing needed. Remove them correctly by gently soaking off in acetone to dissolve them and the natural nail underneath will be in excellent condition. :-)

  • I think this is so much more easier then the whole process of doing the nail tips...cutting them..applying acrylic and doing the design and the the drilling...awesome job done on this

  • @NailArtFanatic1110 thank you :-)

  • cool n pretty...

  • theyre great, but how could you actually DO anything with those on? Haha :)

  • @lovewolves123 You would be surprised how quickly you get used to them. It's the really pointy stiletto nails you have to be careful with lol :-)

  • Does the pink act as glue?

  • @Mrsfunkycupcake Hiya, yeah it does :-) as the pink hardens it bonds with the natural nail plate below and the thin Inverted Mould above. The trick is learning to put just the right amount of pink acrylic into the IM and then applying the right amount of pressure when applying. Pressing too hard can force too much pink out from under the free edge and result in not enough pink acrylic inside to hold the nail down correctly. HTH :-)

  • Hi, you have a awesome videos realy thanks for sharing, now iknow the prices but do you take the molds of? and also were can i order it? do you have a web page? thanks again.

  • @MONTANOMARILU Thank you :-) Yes we have a website where you can buy the Inverted Moulds and we can send to you in the USA with no problems :-) I will inbox you links direct to the order form :-) any problems just message us through YouTube.

  • What do you do to prep the natural nail? Also what happens when you have new growth 2-3 weeks later? Soak off and start again? Thanks

  • @msjusjax Hi thanks for your question. Prep is done in the usual way and if the acrylic range you are using requires a primer still use it :-) It really depends on the client, you can still do in-fills / rebalance if you want, but to be honest because you sculpt all the acrylic tips in the IM (Inverted Mould) and not on the natural nail it's much quicker, easier and less messy to get your clients to soak off while you're doing the tips. Then when they are ready you can prep and apply. :-)

  • hi! how do you calculate where the smile line goes?

  • @Seishisaturn Mostly by practice, it's actually quite easy to judege where the smile line goes and very helpful if you have a client with bitten nails and you need to cheat and place the smile higher up then the short free edge. To start off with some techs use a marker pen on the outside of the IM to show where the smile should go, then turn the IM over apply the white acrylic & sculpt the smile. Then when the acrylic has set hard turn the IM back over and wipe off the pen mark :-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems I want these, bit I live in Mexico and shipping is quite expensive :( need to save some money. Thanks!

  • @Seishisaturn Hi, actually the cost of shipping is £7.00 (British Pounds) and the Evaluation Pack of 300 Inverted Moulds (50 of each size and there are 6 different sizes) is £29.99 so total with all shipping and handling is £36.99 :-)

  • how do you do that!

    

  • @Duwer100 Do what? lol

  • hola que tal me encantaria hacete una pregunta .que es si hubiera alguna forma de por lo menos yo que no se ingles traducirlo o subtitular un que sea el video donde enseñas a hacerlas con moldes invertidos por que la verdad nunca lo he visto y la verdad me encanto ojala me puedas responder gracias

  • theese look so much easier to do!

  • @marshmellow061 They take a little practice, but that save you so much time because you don't need to buff them and because the Inverted Mould bonds with the acrylic and does not come off you get an instant and perfect gloss finish every time and far better protection and strength for the acrylic underneath. Can't loose :-)

  • Hi, what are that "tips" called, you put that acrylic powder in? This tutorial is absolutely gorgeous and I would really like to try it by myself, but I don't know where to get that "nail templates" from.

  • @freakophil Hi thanks for the comment :-) They are called Inverted Moulds and you can buy them online directly off our website and we mail order to many different countries around the world. A link to our site is in the video description. Any problems just send us a message :-)

  • Love em!

  • what if you have a nail that doesnot fit the molds? maybe too wide or maybe too narrow? I have these and was wondering ?

  • @fancydnails Hi, they are designed to be trimmed to fit the nail. So going down in size by trimming the side of the IM to make it fit is easy. If your nail is wider than the number 6 (which is the largest mould we do) it won't be by much so the trick is to trim just a little more bump out and this widens the mould to fit the gap. Just watch the training videos and you will see what to do :-) But practice is the key. HTH's

  • Absolutely gorgeous!!

  • @shuggaqube thanks :-)

  • Hi, i wondered, You say on one of your earlier comments no glue, but how does the nail stay on ones finger?

  • @gwendoles21 Hi, well it's all to do with the pink acrylic :-) You put the pink in the IM and while it is still 'wet' you turn the IM over and apply to the natural nail. As the pink acrylic begins to harden it bonds with the nail plate on the bottom, the inside of the IM above and at the free edge / smile line with the acrylic tip (in this case the Zebra design). Once totally cured that's it and no glues or adhesives used anywhere, just acrylic :-) HTH's

  • @InvertedNailSystems oh i see, so im assuming that wld work with normal acrylics as well?

  • @gwendoles21 Oh yes. You can use pretty much any brand of acrylics with Inverted Moulds, we have techs using Creative, EzFlow, Youngs, Tammy Taylor, NSI plus lots of others :-) IM's allow you to use all your existing prooducts, your just using them in a different way. HTH's

  • muito criativooo!

  • uauuuuuuuuuuuuu! fantasticoooooooooooooo

    adoreiiiiii muitooo!

    nao da para fazer com gel?

    parabens a quem fez esta lindooo :)

  • No glue ?

  • @LipRouge nope, no glue is needed :-)

  • WELLL DONEEEE!!!!!!!!! very neat and professional. KEEP IT UP =D

  • HI dear !acrylic easy take aways by aceton ?

  • how long do they last?

  • @c8uy It really depends on how fast your nails grow. But we have clients that can keep Inverted Moulds on for 4-5 weeks before they need a fill or new set. For most people it's 2-3 weeks that's the average. The real advantage is that they are stronger, so breakages are rare :-)

  • hi ive never seen anything like this before...its amazing...i have a question though...do you add any primer to the natural nail so the acrylic will stay on longer?

  • @MizzJay31 Hi, if you are using a range of acrylics that recommends a primer then yes use it. :-) Inverted Moulds can be used with all sorts of brands. We have techs using our range from The Nail Artist site, NSI, Creative, EzFlow, Tammy Taylor, Youngs and many more.

  • wow love it nice work.:)

  • Did you stick the nail on while the pink acrylic was on there? or you used glue?

  • @rosycheekslolluvu Hi, no, no glue is used at all, we bond to the nail plate using the pink acrylic while it's still wet. As the pink cures (hardens) it sticks to the natural nail far better and for much longer than glue ever could :-) HTH's

  • hello!!!

    this video is mega like...

  • @undertakermania1 Cheers :-)

  • can you take the mould off of the top afterwards? :D

  • @missxtimmi Hi, no you can't :-) this type of mould is the only one that actually becomes part of the finished nail extension and helps to protect the acrylic and embedded nail art like a suit of armor. Far more effective than a UV gel topcoat or polish, the IM gives the finished nail an instant glossy smooth surface with a massive increase in impact damage protection and longevity :-)

  • well done

  • @makeupfanatic1989 Cheers! :-)

  • How does the product adhere to the natural nail? Also do you all ship to the United States?

  • @mskoffeebrown Hi, you have to 'prep' the natural nail plate first, this is the same for any type of nail extension. But the acrylic itself chemically bonds with the keratin in the nail plate. The reason we state no glues or adhesives are needed when using Inverted Moulds is because we are not use a plastic tip. HTH's

  • thats sooo awesome!!! but dnt think my clients would have the patience for that

  • @leticiamedrano lol well if you think about it, once you have sized up the Inverted Mould and trimmed it to fit your clients natural nail then can actually go off and do some shopping or have a coffee :-) you can spend the time sculpting all the 10 acrylic Zebra tips, then when they come back all you need to do is prep and apply. We do this all the time. We can Pre-do acrylic tips, day's or even weeks in advance of the actual nail appointment. Clients LOVE this ability in their nail techs!

  • @InvertedNailSystems hey nice thinking have more tricks like that.

  • @babywou This is the best one and it really does work. Every other nail system needs the client sat right in front of you but if your using IM's (Inverted Moulds) you get huge flexibility meaning you can be working even if the clients running late or has to reschedule their appointment. So from a business point of view you're making far better use of your time :-)

  • ur awesome!! i'm trying to learn too, i just need to buy the products. i know its going to be hard but i'll be worth it! i wish we were besties lol :)

  • Hi there i got the moulds but i keep getting air bubbles and it looks like there coming up at the corners please help! :)

  • @sxcitashaha Hi, ok there is a full section on air bubbles and how to stop it on the blog of our website, if you have trouble finding it just e-mail us :-) Lifting at the edges is down to 1 of 2 things (sometimes a little of both) 1) Your not putting enough pink acrylic into the mould or 2) You are pressing a too hard on application and forcing pink out. The result is the same for both, not enough pink in contact with the nail plate and the mould begins to lift :-) easily sorted this one lol

  • @InvertedNailSystems yes when i pressed them on there was some coming out at the sides so maybe that in the reason :) im new too acrylic nails doing them myself used to always get them done at salons but there pricey lol

  • @sxcitashaha it's all about practice and getting the right feel for how hard to press :-)

  • they're so long! but they're gorgeous. very nice, im thinking of starting to do acrylic nails soon but they take forever to do if you're ocd with designs haha

  • extra ,.....boskie są

  • fab!

  • how can you remove these nails?

  • @MExJUDITH Hi, just soak them off using 'Acetone' aka Tip remover. You should never ever pull them off or file them off.  If you use an acetone 'warmer' soaking bowl you can have them off in under 30 minutes with no damage to the natural nail. HTH's

  • wow. you are so incredible!! I try to copy your design but my 2nd hand NEVER looks good! :( I wish I had a steady hand like you

  • impressive!! :)

  • Ha, that is so weird! I've never seen anything like this before!! Very pretty!!

  • @MissMNails thanks :-)

  • After watching this, I think I might want to invest in some, they look so much neater than having to paint every individual nail. I'm not good with my left hand when I paint my nails and plus I wouldn't have to worry about them smudging on my fingers while I paint the rest.

  • what is that black things. is that a nail polist or what

  • @Naren789 Hi, no it's black acrylic nail art powder.

  • Estan bellisimas =D

  • tolle Nägel nur wären sie mir zu lang 

  • my compliment... excellent !! !!!

  • how long do these molds last on your nails??

  • @Gumdrop180 Hi, they last 'Very' well. But we regards to time it really depends on the natural nail growth of the client. If your client normally gets 2-3 weeks before a fill or new set, then expect the same. But with regards to strength and durability, the moulds give far more than regular acrylics and much much more than gel. When using IM's the finished nail is a full acrylic sculptured nail (no plastic tip) and the mould gives protection against chipping and breakages. HTH :-)

  • I have the molds and I love them I can never get to form a big ball to do it like the professionals so these take the work out of trial and error. My only question is what kind of brush do you use? I bought a sable brush and for some reason its not working for me. Thanks in advance

  • @MILLYNWILL Hi thanks for your nice comments :-) A sable is the brush of choice, but we find it's easier to use a 'Round' and the size, well we use two, a number 4 (small) for the intricate artwork and a number 8 (big) for everything else. Hope this helps :-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems Thank you yes this advice works 'i have the #4, 6 and 8 I was using the number 6 and It was not good for me I just used the #8 and I am in love Thanks so much because I have no experinece or schooling I just love doing nails. Thanks again

  • @MILLYNWILL excellent, glad it helped :-)

  • It kinda looks like a cow design to me, but i see the zebra design too. Lol, But it still looks really cool, so good job! (:

  • i think that you could use any tip it doesnt have to be a special mold. well now that's my opinion......

  • @elsantos106 Hi, sorry, but a normal tip will not actually work. Tips are designed to be glued to the free edge not to cover the entire nail, so there shape is totally wrong. They are also way too thick and would mean your finished nail would look like a door stop. And to get a perfect fit would mean lots of trimming and filing, a huge waste of time. Try it and see, but I can guarantee it won't work, sorry, just being honest.

  • I AM GOING TO TRY THIS. GREAT TUTORIAL

  • what du u use to glue them nail glue or ?

  • @sandraluvbby Hi, no you don't need to use any type of glues or adhesives, just pink liquid and powder acrylic. If you watch one of our other videos 'Inverted Moulds detailed explanation' you will see how it's all done :-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems Hi again, just wanted to add that you can always go directly to our 'easynail' website and view all the full video tutorials and step by step training guides all for free. See how it's all done and then decide if you want to buy the Inverted Moulds afterwards.

  • Those look pretty

  • this is not a mold right? I use molds and it's very cool because it also leaves tha nail very shiny and there is no need for gel at the end :)

  • @mi805 Hi, yes they are moulds :-) and your right using moulds not only means no buffing to get that perfect smooth finish, there is no need for additional topcoats or polish to get the shine, the mould does that for you. That's why it's quicker to use an IM (Inverted Mould).

  • @InvertedNailSystems when you apply to the natural nail do it pop off

  • @LovableNails Hi, no the Inverted Moulds becomes part of the finished nail. That glossy smooth finish you see in the video is not a UV topcaot or polish, it's the mould. The mould act's like a suit of armor protecting the acrylic from chipping / damage.

  • Do you fill them the regular way? If so how do they look once you have filed them?

    Thanks.

  • @justlearningnails Yes you do fills the regular way and they look fine. You probably wouldn't do a fill on a complex nail like this, quicker and easier to soak off and apply a fresh set. But on a normal set of acrylics 'pink & white' fills are straight forward. HTH's

  • makes me think more of a cow print than zebra... but that was cool how it was done

  • it's awesome!

  • Do you have to cure acrylic nails?

  • @1929babe acrylics cure on their own. As soon as the liquid acrylic (monomer) is mixed with the acrylic powder (polymer) a chemical reaction begins. The liquid and powder mix takes about 20-30 seconds to begin harden (depending on the speed set of the acrylics, we use fast set, but you can get slower setting acrylics) and about 2 minutes to fully cure on their own. It's called an exothermic reaction. :-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems Thank you! (:

  • wow interesting, so u r basically, just doing the acrylics the opposite way

  • @Angele905 exactly :-)

  • This is so cool! What brand of acrylic do you use?

  • @vajh122027 we actually have our own brand available from thenailartist (link on our YT channel page) it's a high end range of acrylics, Fast set, which is better when using IM's (Inverted Moulds). But you can use all sorts of brands. We have lots of techs using their own stuff, Creative, EzFlow, NSI etc. Hope that helps :-)

  • Comment removed

  • @MurderStyleRecords1 Hi you sculpt the black acrylic lines in the 'Tip' of the nail. However, you can if you wanted sculpt the black acrylic all through the nail down into the nail bed area if you wanted. There's no right or wrong way to do them, just let you're creativity flow :-)

  • hey, just wondering, do you have to put the artificial nail over the entire nail bed or can you put it on like half then apply a thin layer of clear acrylic, over the entire nail. Filing and buffing of course.

  • @00babaygurl Hi, yes you could, but to be honest there's no point as you're just making extra work for yourself and the finished nail will not be as strong.

  • when do you buy the acrylic stuff and the clear nails

  • @reb1009 it's up to you ;-)

  • @InvertedNailSystems sorry i ment to put where

  • very creative!! i love them!

  • This is so pretty.

  • cool! does acrylic have a strong smell?

  • @agntsyd yes and you need a well ventilated area

  • thts diffeent but i like

  • realy interesting !!! i liked it very much thankyou

  • That's sick!!! Sooo awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @peepsyx3

    I have the EXACT problem , I think it has a lot to do with the liquid n acrylic, u also have to file ur nail beds too don't forget!

  • @LADIEDON Hi yes, natural nail prep is VERY important. It does not matter what type of nail extension you are creating (even using IM's) if you don't prep the natural nail correctly the nail will come off. Natural oils in the nail affect the bond with the acrylic. Also there are lots of different acrylics available, obviously each has its own characteristics you need to learn. We recommend fast set acrylics but if they are setting too quick use a medium set, or use a wetter ratio :-)

  • Thats just amazing <3

  • hi can you tell me how i can find these nails or whats the name so i can find them in the internet thank you

  • @fr3id3r Hi, they are called 'Inverted Moulds' you can buy them directly off our website and get full / free access to the members area of the site where you can watch over 3hrs of training videos. All the stuff we DON'T show on YouTube. Go to our YT channel page for the link to our site. HTH's

  • like

  • I bought IM's a while back. Let me tell you, they are hard to master!!! Uhg.

    Im still in the process of learning & trying to get used to doing them. Perfecting the smile line, and making it nice & thin!

    With me, Once the acrylic is placed in the IM it drys really fast! And they pop off really easy! I use primer but hmmm...maybe its the acrylic&liquid Im using? Any advice on how to fix that?

    The end result looks amazing but its the fact that they come off so easily that sucks.

  • @Peepsyx3 Hi yes they take practice :-) The problem you are having is a classic for people new to using IM's and it's usually down to 1 or 2 reasons (sometimes a little of both). The first, not putting enough pink acrylic into the IM and the second is 'Pressing Too Hard' on application. When pressing them on you need the compression to get the bond, but press too hard and you will force too much pink out so there is not enough to hold the nail down. So after a few days they pop off. HTH's

  • wow !

  • you are awsome i think you are a pro

  • you a pro

  • wawww its amezing

  • waow its amezing

  • i like this

  • omg i love it

  • Pretty rad.

  • AWESOME!

  • k thats frickkkin AWESOME!

  • Amei!!!!!

  • Hello, i am interested in learning a few things about nail art, i was woundering what it is that you have your nail tips on (the pink thing) whats it called and where would i get one from, i am wanting to be able to do my own nails but putting them on a similar thing to the pink thing your using, i am then hoping to decorate the nails and then transfer them onto my hands to ither gel or put acrylic on ... by this message im sure you can guess im a tad hopless and would like some advise x

  • WOW!!!

  • Really nice idea... and now I got what you mean with inverted nail :D... yeah I tend to be a little slow... anyways I like the idea itself but sadly sadly neither acryl nor any kind of gel wanna stay on my nails... tried many different kinds by now made it myself and let a profi do it for me... maybe just my nails aren't made for this.. but by now I developed my nailpolish skills so I always got my nails in a nice shape and design :)

  • love this new way, but some how i think this gonna take awhile to do, and gonna be expensive, and i don thinl u can repair or refill this , must get a new set all the time

  • @quyenbui yes there is a learning curve and they take practice. But they are actually quicker to do and in the long run cheaper. Yes you can repair, infill or rebalance if you want, but it's actually quicker and much easier to soak off and have a new set as you can be pre-doing all the acrylic tips / artwork while the client is soaking off her old set. HTH's

  • That looks like it would take a long time to do for all ten nails. You'd be quicker puttin the acrylic straight on to the tip, or just painting black stripes over white tips. I wouldnt have the patience for that!

  • how long dus it last?

  • @Cheresa23 Depends on the natural nail growth of the client. People with bitten nails grow much faster so will need a maintenance appointment within 1-2 weeks to ensure the nails are all ok. But the average is 2-3 weeks for most clients, but we do have people who keep them all on for 5+ weeks before their next appointment. Safe to say that they last much longer than tips because the finished nail is actually a 'Sculptured' or 'Full' acrylic nail.

  • were can i get these brushes?

  • @diamondivon96 Hi if you go to 'The Nail Artist' website you will see a link to our EBAY shop, we auction items like brushes there. HTH's

  • @InvertedNailSystems thanks:]

  • does the mould come off or stay on once the acrylic adheres to the natural nail? seems like a silly question I know but I am a little confused.

  • @TammyEMD Hi, we mailorder Inverted Moulds directly off our website, the site address is in the description of the video (and at the end of the video) we send all over the world including the USA.

  • @TammyEMD Hi, the Inverted Moulds stays on the nail. That glossy smooth finish you see on all our nails is not a UV topcoat or a polish, it's the Inverted Mould. They are ULTRA MEGA thin, nothing like a tip, but they are strong enough to cradle, support and hold the soft acrylic in place while it cures. During this process (polymerisation) the acrylic chemically bonds with the Inverted Mould and can not be removed. This gives the finished nail a very tough 'shell' like protection :-)

  • where can i find this type of nails ive looked for them but i cant find them???

  • gorgeous

  • I don't understand how they stick?? Is it a different type of powder? Or is it the exact same products just with the mound??

  • @MzC00ki327 Hi, exactly the same products :-) We don't use any type of glues or adhesives we use the 'Pink' liquid and powder acrylic to bond the extension to the nail plate. You apply the pink inside the mould then turn it over and apply to the nail when the pink is still 'wet' it hardens pretty quickly and that's it. The Inverted Mould bonds to the acrylic too, so no buffing and no topcoats are needed. HTH's

  • @InvertedNailSystems can the mould be re-used?

  • @sexiven Hi, no the Inverted Mould can not be used. The IM actually becomes part of the finished nail giving it that instant glossy shine. It also act like a body armor, protecting the acrylic and nail art underneath from chipping or damage for the life of the nail extension. Then when it's time you can either soak off as normal with acetone or do an in-fill, again this is done in the same way. HTH's

  • omg thats so awesome!

  • @Sophie25mich Hi, not sure, you should try it out and let us know :-) Nail extensions created using Inverted Moulds last VERY well, but it does really depend on the natural nail growth of the client. We do have clients that go 5-6 weeks, some 2-3 weeks. Nail Biters between 1-2 weeks before a fill or a new set is needed. HTH's

  • Why can't we do this with a normal plastic nail?

    What makes your nails so much different?

    I'm just asking :)

  • @sneskennnn Hi, that's ok questions are good :-) IM's are designed to cover the entire nail plate and to extend it, they are also made from a total different material and have a unique shape that means the nail tech can trim to fit any nail shape. You just can't do this with a clear tip, the shape is all wrong, they are designed to be glued to the free edge and they are very thick. HTH's :-)

  • How does it dry? Do you need to use a lamp?

    So you have to put the mould on your nail while the pink acrylic is still wet and it will stick?

    Is preparation of the nails needed?

  • @sneskennnn Hi, yes prep is essential when applying any type of nail extension, not just so the nail stays on, but more importantly for the safety of your client. You must always practice strict and correct preparation procedures! No lamp is needed as liquid and powder acrylics harden due to chemical reaction. You are correct, you apply the extension to the natural nail while the pink acrylic is still wet and as it cures (hardens) it bonds with the mould and the nail plate HTH :-)

  • to do this can u just use a regular old plastin nail

  • @daijalbanks Hi, no you would need to use an Inverted Mould to do what you see in the video. :-)

  • what do you call that nail shape i want that for my acrylic nails??

  • @pocabarbie we call it squoval, somewhere between 'Square' and 'Oval' don't know what other techs call it.
