@loisberry-rose5175 2 года назад

When you put the foil adhesive on the nail, cure it for 60 seconds, let it cool down for a minute or two and then transfer your foil. Hope that helps! I just learned, and it made things much easier.

I tried the Jelly adhesive gel on my client and she had a bad allergy to it. She's never had any troubles with any products before so I was surprised. Thick skin built up under the nails, the sides looked swollen and red, she said they hurt and her nail beds turned brown. Her nails were great before this was applied but the reaction seemed to take about 4 days.

I am so glad this video could help! I have never worked with dip powder but I imagine you can put the foil gel on top of your color. If by chance it doesn’t seem to be sticking I would try putting a gel base coat before the foil gel so it has something to stick to ☺️

I would do your color of choice then apply the foil adhesive, apply the foils, then apply your top coat. I would also suggest doing two layers of top coat to really seal in the foils. Hope this helps

Will this work regardless if you have let's say a top coat? Like if you do a color then want a foil on top , do u put the foil before the top coat or after?

The foil has to be before the top coat. You need to seal in the foil and the color gel with a top coat or it won’t last

My another brand foil gel is always making threads after curing when I touch it and doesn’t even stick the foil. I cure it like twice thrice in my 6W lamp which cures in 45secs so I wonder what’s wrong, someone else did it in a larger lamp and it looked okay, idk where I’m going wrong

@AmysNailAddiction 2 года назад

I would suggest looking into the brand of foil gel you have and see what wattage they require for the gel. It is possible you may need a bigger lamp

@myae2867 Год назад

Can I use just clear gel & then cure & then foil if I don’t have the transfer gel?

@AmysNailAddiction Год назад

No they leave different types of tacky layers so it would not transfer properly

@missychelle33 2 года назад

Amazing video! Thank you. I want more designs on my nails and I’m looking for a new nail artist. Any suggestions on how to find someone like you? Obviously there’s a lot of nail salons mostly Asian run- and they aren’t current on trends anymore I’m finding. I’ve gone there for years and they are lovely people but I’ve noticed American women tend to keep up more with the nail trends and designs. I just don’t know how to locate a American nail artist? Also sorry I don’t know how to ask this- and I’m not trying to be offensive but I needed to explain myself in order to find what I’m looking for. Like I said I’ve been going to salons for years and appreciate their work- just looking to mix it up.

@AmysNailAddiction 2 года назад

Hello thank you for watching! I would suggest doing a search on google as well as Instagram and Tiktok for nail salons in your area. I feel like most techs who are keeping up on the trends and are really into nail art will be posting on social media. And this way you can look through and see all of their work and decide who would be a best fit for you. Hope this helps

@jaxrenninger2545 Месяц назад

@jayfly9385 2 года назад

Hey I ordered like four packs of these and for some reason they are not sticking? I tried less foil coat and more foil coat from jelly nails, I’m not sure bc of the nails I have,I have clear,white acrylics I even tried file in the surface of the nail before transfer, I also let the gel foil sit for 5 seconds 90seconds and longer and it’s still slippery?

@AmysNailAddiction 2 года назад

To me it sounds like the gel is not cured. I would do a VERY thin coat for the foil gel. Also check your wattage on your lamp, it is possible that the wattage does not work with this particular gel. Check in with JellyNails for further information about this if you continue to have issues. Hope that helps

HELP! I have tried so many methods and none work! The foil just slides off the gel nail glue. I am using Makkart foils and gel glue on various gel polishes. What the heck am I doing wrong. I wipe the polish after curing then cure the glue. Please help?

@AmysNailAddiction 2 года назад

Hi there! So I am not familiar with the Makkart foils but to start off do not wipe the polish before adding the gel glue. Gel sticks to gel so you need that adhesive layer on there. 2nd I would double check the curing times and the type of light it recommends. Each brand is different. Hope that helps!

Are you working on top of gel polish for the foils?

@sftraub 2 года назад

Great tutorial but, I do have to point out that translucent means light gets through but you cannot clearly see through the material. The foils with the clear backgrounds are transparent, meaning you can see clearly through the open areas. You keep referring to the clear background foils with scattered images as translucent when they are transparent.

@AmysNailAddiction 2 года назад
