What's in my Mobile Nail Trolley?
I've been working mobile for about 6 months now and I have been caught out a few times by not having every possibility of supplies. So I've worked really hard to fit as much as I can into this trolley.
I bring a small folding table to each appointment and usually try to set up beside the clients fining table so that I can use that as extra space.
The only things I need to pack specifically for each client is the gel polish colors and any random art items that aren't very popular or that I barely ever use.
The basket of everything makes set up and take down quick and easy. I just set it on the clients table and work directly from it.
I leave the top section open and folded out during the a...

    • @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie
      @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie 11 дней назад

      @JKidding989 hi :) gel polish doesn't dry out per say. Some brands are thick and gloopy, some are thin and runny. If it has little clumps in it, it's been exposed to uv. Even non direct light from a window will cure it if its exposed. If its just thick, it's probably more so a brand quality issue. Xx

    • @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie
      @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie 13 дней назад

      @katarinasimeone1358 hiya :) alcohol won't make the nail sticky for application. If that's all you have, but the nails to take the shine off, then wipe with alcohol, then carry on with the application of your polish. I prefer to just wipe them with acetone as it melts the nail slightly, leaving a sticky surface . Hope this helps x

    Why all my glossy nail polishes are turning matte when I'm applying it on plastic nails

    • @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie
      @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie 19 дней назад

      @nilima_sasmal I'm not sure, usually it is the topcoat that gives the nails a shiny or matte finish. The polish you're using on the plastic nails should have the same effect that they have on natural nails. I have seen air dry polishes behave erratically when used in extreme hot or cold temperatures. I'd reccomend applying a shiny Topcoat over the nails. If you're using gel polish, it is normal for the colors to be matte ( if you wipe them off after curing, which you wouldn't normally do. ) it is the topcoat that provides the shine. Sorry if that didn't help at all, it's hard to advise without knowing the specifics of the brand and technique that you're using. X

    Hi! Quick question. If i have a nail polish remover with acetone, can i just use that? I dont know if it willl work the same. And for nails like this, can you use normal bail polish and let it dry overnight, or do you need gel polish? Im a teenager on a budget, and I'd like to learn to paint my press-ons.

    • @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie
      @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie Месяц назад

      @Choaticsibling1111 hi! Yes, regular nail polish remover with acetone is fine :) regular nail polish is fine too, but it takes a while to dry. 24hrs is probably enough depending on how thick they are painted. The problem arises when you press down on the nail to apply it, if it's not 100% dry it will leave a fingerprint in the polish. I'd reccomend painting one extra nail, that you'll be able to test if it's completely dry without worrying about wrecking it :) have fun!

    • @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie
      @NailswithCourtneyCrosbie 2 месяца назад

      Hi! I'm glad it has helped. Pigment powders are really versatile and fun to use in other ways, too, so you should get some! Each coat of polish is cured. The tacky layer is created by curing. Some polishes cure with no tacky layer though, if that happens then just flash cure for 10 sec ( or more, you'll have to experiment which gives you the best sticky finish for the powders to cling to) and make sure to cure fully after applying the powder to reduce the risk of allergies from uncured product. Hope this helps xx
