BEST WAY TO REPAIR A CRACKED SPLIT NAIL - DIY VIDEO TUTORIAL

Hey everyone! I hope all is well! Today I wanted to share with you a great way to fix a cracked/split nail. All you need is a tea bag & some nail glue! If you don't have nail glue you can use a clear base coat, though I think you get better, longer lasting results with nail glue. I like my nails on the longer side, but experience occasional splits on the side of my nail, usually right where the distal edge begins. I really hate when that happens because the split is so deep down that I either can't cut the nail at that point cause its too low & if I can cut it I don't want to cause then I'm left with a stub, which is not very pretty! So I like to try to save the nail, at least until it grows out to a decent length. I have tried different methods to fix a split nail & this is my personal favorite. I use this method before applying my nail polish or nail art design & the nail usually stays intact until I remove my mani (about a week). I like to repair the nail fresh before each new mani. So when when I remove my manicure, I will also remove the tea bag piece & nail glue from the broken nail with acetone nail polish remover, then I will repair it with a fresh tea bag piece & glue and then do my new mani. I prepared this video tutorial to show you how I personally repair my cracked/split nails. In this video, BOTH of my thumb nails were split! I repaired both of my nails using this technique & they both stayed intact until I removed my mani which was about a week & a half later!

Hey everyone! This is just a quick post to show you this french tip design I did using nail art paint & a dotting tool! I call them diva tips! I love french tip designs, unfortunately I don't get to do them too often because I prefer to do nail tip designs when my nails are at a longer length, but that's not always easy to achieve because I always end up breaking a nail or two before I get to my desired length, so frustrating, lol. Anyways, I hope you like! I did a video tutorial along with this (one of my first video tutorials so please be nice, lol). And please subscribe to my youtube channel! Thanks! : )   http://youtube.com/deriniti Zoya Sweet, Confetti Hint of Pink, Kiss Nail Art Paint: Black, White & Silver Glitter, Color Club Nail Art Lacquer Pink Please "Like" & Subscribe! : ) XOXO, Deriniti

Birthday Bling Nail Art Design and Video Tutorial and BPS Series Stamping Collection 01-10 Review

Hey guys! This is just a quick post to share with you my birthday manicure! I wanted something glittery & fun and this is what I came up with! I entered this mani in a nail art contest where the theme was "Bling in the Glitz and Glam" and I won first place! So excited because it has been awhile since I have entered any nail art contests! Not sure what I won yet, it's a surprise! How exciting! : ) The stamping plate I used is from Born Pretty Store 's first series of new stamping plates (Born Pretty 01-10). I got this series when it first came out. Some of the full nail images from this collection were too small for my long nails BUT I have noticed that Born Pretty Store has made improvements to this collection and made the images larger now. The old plates with the smaller images say "Born Pretty" followed by the plate number, the new ones say "BP" and then the plate number. I think it's great that they improved the plates because they h...

Hey guys! Every once and awhile I get inspired to recreate designs that I come across by other nail artists & this is one of those re-creations. If you follow nail art, especially on youtube, then chances are you have heard of Love4Nails, she has lovely designs & tutorials. I came across a design she did similar to this & I just had to try it! I tweeked the design a bit to fit my liking & to make a little different, but I still like to give credit where credit is do. This design was definately not easy to photograph because of the chrome polish, sooo shiny, but very pretty in person! : )  M57 - Wet N'Wild French White Creme, LoveMyNails Rosebud, Konad Black Special Polish XOXO, Deriniti
