I also got a 'cute looking finger' at home XDD but if i want to remove the Stiletto the tip is breaking away! :'''( How do u remove the Nail from the finger?°.° I'm sooo frustaided X'''(

[NailArtByLiliya]

@Lola119953 hi :) just don't buff the plastic nail. Then the gel nail will come off easily!

[Lola119953]

@NailArtByLiliya ^^" Haha well that's too late for me -.- it's already SOOOO buffed -.-

Thank you sooo much for the Tip^^ I will keep it in mind by my next shopping trip for fake fingers X33 :DD ;D

Thanks again^^

How can u remove the nail on the finger practice? Love the roses, they are make with acrylic paint? I will love to see the tutorial for those roses.

[NailArtByLiliya]

@dovlecel21 Oh, it won't get stuck there. Try it :) Yes, hand painted flowers were made with acrylic paint (water based).

Liliya, beautiful work. In this video, you are using a glitter mix? How do you make yours? I know the ratio with acrylics but is there a ratio (glitter to gel) when mixing and does it have to be a certain type of glitter? Can you use mylar, sprinkles etc? Thanks

[NailArtByLiliya]

@Apricotic Thank you :)

I usually use premixed glitters that come from a manufacturer. If you want to mix your own just make sure that the ratio is about 2 parts of glitter to 1 part of clear gel if the glitter is a light color. If it's darker, put less glitter because the mixture won't cure properly. Another point- when you mix try to keep your mixture almost the same viscosity as your gel was before mixing. If it becomes more thick it has less chances to cure well.

You can use mylar :)

[dimplezcutec]

[NailArtByLiliya]

[c0ne3]

hahahaha women's world

[venusstardust]

omg, how can non-professionals permenantly damage your nails? I was a hand model at a college and got gel nails done from time to time and they weren't professional....

love the nails on your hands btw, v pretty

[NailArtByLiliya]

@venusstardust If you do not use products properly or do aggressive filing, for example.

[venusstardust]

@NailArtByLiliya eek thanks! I guess the college will be ok... anyway, thanks for explaining!

[Koishii57]

Do you have to be a professional nail artist to get the supplies you need? I can't afford to have my nails done but I would love to be able to try and do it myself : /

[NailArtByLiliya]

@Koishii57 Yes, you have to. Otherwise you will not know how to use the products properly and you may permanently damage your nails.

[dovlecel21]

I like very much, the design with rose...can u make it, please!

[lalovergirl505]

what is the difference between gel and acrylic nails????? ;}

[NailArtByLiliya]

@lalovergirl505 some of the points are: gel is weightless, whereas L&P (aka acrylic) system feels heavy on your nails; gel is not porous, so it will not stain (yellow) like L&P; gel has no odors, but has lots of dust when you file it; to remove acrylic nails you soak them off in acetone, to remove gel you file them off. I prefer gel :)

[gabygrod7]

i LiKE THE DESIGn oN uR RIGhT HAND. do U hAVE A TutoRiAL on THAT oNE?

[bebecee1314]

i simply love this design ! i currently don't have any gel right now, do you think nail polish can still make the same effect ?

[NailArtByLiliya]

@bebecee1314 you can try :) (I'm not sure)

[TheElise17]

Cool,

I just have clear gel, can i use black polish to decorate isead black gel?

[NailArtByLiliya]

@TheElise17 I wouldn't do it because your nails will not be as strong and might even break if you put nail polish in there. But you can try it on yourself first and then see how it works ;) or you can buy color gels from me since ours are very pigmented and easy to work with.

[stacy3101]

wow!

[OgLopez11]

y r the nails pointy????

[NailArtByLiliya]

@OgLopez11 this shape is called "Stiletto".

[yatusab69]

[NinahAdy]

Question: How long do gel nails ussually last? =|

[NailArtByLiliya]

@NinahAdy well, four weeks no problem if you are careful with your nails.

[knepri]

The nail looks amazing! But do people really wear these, i mean so long? Dont they get in the way?

[NailArtByLiliya]

@knepri Hi :) They actually do get in the way, but they also look beautiful! So, some of my clients wear stilettos or edges. This length also requires more maintenance...

[princesslyndi]

I'm curious (I use Akentz too), on your thimb it looks like you have an opaque pink before the black. Is it?? I can't seem to find a good opaque pink with akentz : (

[NailArtByLiliya]

True :) They don't have it.

I use Amore Cache Pink and mix it with their white gel+coverage powder. If you are interested in knowing how to do it, please give me your email and I will explain it to you in details.

[princesslyndi]

I love YOUR nails in this, great job!

[NailArtByLiliya]

Thanks )

[dunja382]

omg , i am just in love with this video , where can i buy the glitter ...?

[NailArtByLiliya]

Please send me a private message if you are still interested in glitter. Thanks.

[TheMimia26]

hello ,very nice video.i'm new to gel nails.could do advice wich best o purchacse 9w uv lamp or 36 uv .

thanks

[NailArtByLiliya]

Hi. It all depends on what gels you use. Some of the brands require 36Watt, some 9Watt UV lamps. Check it with your gel company.

[katarinabasilico1]

no im not confusing you with any another person because there is only one which name is lillya sereditskaya and your works are amazing ! my daughter is eleven years and everyday she says can we se if lillya have made a new video.! i can tell you iv seen many videos but not great like yours ... thank you for answers!!!

[NailArtByLiliya]

Hey come on! I am not her :))) I live in Canada and I work with gels only!

[katarinabasilico1]

@NailArtByLiliya im sorry but you know who she is? but you woork is great too !! i thought you was her cause your nails are amazing you have the same style im sorry ...!

[NailArtByLiliya]

Yeah, and my name is Liliya too)) Thanks for the compliments.

[katarinabasilico1]

i forget to ask how many years you are practise this work when you started

[NailArtByLiliya]

Well....I've been doing nail designs since I was a teenager :)

[katarinabasilico1]

Ciao lillya you the best technican iv even see !!! where did you learn to do the nails you do? can i ask you which products you use? im using professionails they are god products, have you heard about crystal nails ? can i use normal acrylic water colours for designing on gel nails???

[NailArtByLiliya]

I hope you are not confusing me with any other person, but thanks :)

I learn how to do designs by myself- look at other nail photos, videos, etc. Now I am mostly using Akzentz and Amore gels.

Yeah, I use water based acrylic paint for designs.

[fdparis18]

can u refill gel nails bc this design requires every layer to be used.

also is filing the only way to remove uv gel nails... any kind of soaking solution available

[NailArtByLiliya]

Actually you can when it grows at least 3-4 mm. This way you will not have to remove a lot of old gel and if you use an e-file the angle near cuticle will be right :)

Doug Schoon explains UV gels as "If you think about it all UV gels are soakable, but some would take hours

to soak off. What is generally referred to as "soakable" means they can be removed in about 30 minutes."

[NailArtByLiliya]

So, you can use soak off gels for designs, but you should not use soak off gels for sculpting long nails because soak off gels are very flexible, porous and break easily.

I sometimes use them for gel toe nails. If you have other questions go ahead :)

[FrankiezShoe]

Hey, I'm practising doing gel nails on my own just so i don't have to go and get them done. I'm a really creative person and I'd rather do them myself. I have a bunch of fake fingers. Do you put the gel directly on the fake finger? How do I get it off afterwards without destroying the finger?! help!

[NailArtByLiliya]

Hi. I put gel directly and then it's easy to remove it... from the one I have at least :)

[marshmellow061]

is gel better than acrylic ?

[NailArtByLiliya]

Hi. They all have their own advantages. I prefer gel because it is lightweight on nails, easy to file and is not porous as acrylic. Gels I am using are strong enough when you sculpt nail properly. Plus I am not allowed to use acrylic in my salon because of the smell.

[crazyevi25]

NIce:)))

[odalys37]

Hi Liliya, Love the black-white and gold nail. I gt my nails magazine and was surprised to see and article on you. I hope someday you can do a cover. You are truly talented. I have done nails for 20 years and consider myself quite creative, but nothing compared to you. keep up the good work. i'll be watching

[NailArtByLiliya]

[borinquenbella]

Great tutorial, all the nails look amazing, but I must say that the black one is my favorite. :)

[NailArtByLiliya]

I like that one too :))) It also will look very nice if you do gold and green glitter there because they are bright.

[MwvNail]
