I Tried Nailboo | Dip Powder Tutorial | Salon Quality Nails at Home

today i'm going to test a dip powder by nail boo you know the company that says you can get salon quality nails without leaving the comfort of your home so let's give it a try and see if it's really true welcome back to aloft aloft today i'm going to do a full set using nail boo dip powder and i'm going to give you my honest opinion of their product but let me know in the comments if you've ever tried this brand before so the color that i'm going to use for this video is date night which is like a candy apple red the set comes with a base coat activator top coat and it also includes a build powder which is like a base along with a brush to dust off the powder a cuticle pusher and a 4-way nail file now i will say i am not a fan of this nail file and i highly doubt that i'm the only person that feels this way i've only used it once and you can see how it looks after one use so i decided to go out and purchase a buffer set that would hold up way better than the file that they gave me and i knew it would get the job done so two things that i didn't show that's also included in the kit is their little instruction booklet as well as a bottle of cleaner for when you go to take the nails off so i'm just going to follow their instructions and the first thing that it says to do is to push your cuticles back before you apply any product or any powder and they also recommend not getting any product or powder on your cuticles here i'm opening a product that's called the base powder so i'm going to start with this but before i do i first have to apply the base coat to each of my nails which is what they have labeled as number one so i will apply a base coat to each nail and then i'm going to dip that finger into the base powder and then i'll use the little fluffy brush that they provided in the kit to dust off any excess powder once i'm done [Music] do [Music] now that that's done i'm going to set the base powder aside for now and then i will move on to the color powder which i said this one is date night but first i need to remove the seal because i haven't used it before [Music] now that that's done we're going to take the number one which is the base coat again and apply another coat to each finger then we're going to dip those fingers into the red powder basically repeating the same steps that i use with the base powder except this time i'm going to dip each one into the color powder twice just to make sure that each finger is coated good [Music] do [Music] this is how it looks after one dip of color but i'm not finished yet we're going to repeat that same process and apply another coat and dip the nails once again two times so that we can fill in any white areas that were missed the first round through [Music] one thing to be careful of is to not get any product on your skin or on your cuticle as it will cause the product and the powder to stick to your skin when you're dipping it it's really no different than when you're painting your nails except when this dries it's a lot harder to get off [Music] let me know down in the comments what you think of the product so far and if you haven't done so already hit that subscribe button sweetheart what are you waiting for [Music] okay now that the powder has been applied to my first hand i'm just going to repeat all of those same steps on my other hand starting with the cuticle pusher then moving on to the base powder the color powder redoing the color powder once again to make sure that i don't miss any spots [Music] powder is done and has been applied to both hands so now we'll move on to number two which is where i apply the activator which will act as a hardener for the [Music] powder [Music] and this is how they look after applying one coat of the activator so the instructions say to apply one coat of number two then file and shape the nails before applying another coat and then moving on to the top coat so here i'm just using the sander which again i purchased separate but i'm going to use the sander to file down any sharp or rough edges and i have to say luckily because i've done this once before maybe three weeks ago but luckily this set turned out way better than my first attempt three weeks ago when i was at this stage my nails last time were very bumpy and that's when i realized i didn't actually like the filer that they provided with the kit but i will say overall i like the results but i did have to do quite a bit of work to smooth them out last time and get them not so bumpy and more of a flat to the shape that i like so once i'm done filing as instructions say i wash my hands and then i apply alcohol to every nail just to make sure that they're clean and dry prior to applying a second coat of the [Music] activator [Music] once the second coat of activator dries then i'm going to go through and apply my first top coat which is number three now i have to say this smells and dries just like super glue as you can see from the top i had a hard time getting this open and i've only used it once when i did my last set or i should say my first set but i had to use teeth to get the top open because it dried just that hard and it smells again just like super glue so if you don't like the smell of super glue you might not want to use this scent but once you apply it it does take it from being that dry shiny look to being a super bright very pretty look as any top coat would [Music] and here are the final results nails complete i did the second top coat off camera and i have to say overall i really do like the product but leave me a comment down below letting me know what you guys think of nail boo or if you've tried it or if you're thinking about trying it either way just leave me a comment letting me know your thoughts thanks for watching
