Gel-X or any gel extensions go cloudy if you go over them with alcohol so use acetone instead unless you plan on painting over the whole nail. Once it goes cloudy it's hard to make clear again but you can try to buff and go over it with acetone. Generally as soon as you attach the tips cover the underside with top gel to prevent the alcohol from clouding the gel extensions.

@viktorie3981 2 года назад

Beautiful, clean job! I find what works best for me is: buff the nail, draw the smile line in non-wipe top coat, cure 30 sec., chrome powder, cure rest of the way, carefully dust off chrome from rest of the nail, top coat over the whole nail, cure.

@memnail 2 года назад

Great tip! I also do this if I want to the shade of chrome to be more subtle. Black or white gels can sometimes make the chrome pop a little too much x

@Aleysha_Jerame Год назад

I love the texture look for the gold chrome it make it look like gold bars but in a different color I would prefer the smooth flat look as well. Your set came out so beautiful and neat. This definitely made me want to give this a try.

@deanna8154 Год назад

Im going to try applying the top coat over the chrome with a stamper tool. It makes great smile lines, but I haven't yet seen anyone do this.

@Zebrafroschify Год назад

oh please report back when you had a chance to try! ✨

@deanna8154 Год назад

@@Zebrafroschify The stamper tool works great...but, it tends to apply the product a bit thickly. A bit of touch-up with a brush to perfect the corners and also to take the thickness of the top coat down a bit is sometimes required. But I also noticed chipping within a week or so. Hmmmm....it still seems to be best to brush it on by hand, cure, and then remove excess chrome powder with alcohol. Whatever I do, I think this look is just wonderful and it's worth the effort.

@XIIxMysticxIIX Год назад

wow. I like both for diff applications. The original way looks “gold plated” so it could work well when youre playing with textures or organic designs & u want less perfect mirror finish. Whereas the new version without the art gel is a seamless look, it would go well with more typical/clean/simple designs were u wants the contrast to Just be between the base color & chrome finish. The new way also seems harder on the eyes to do, at least for me and as you said is harder to fix mistakes with without starting ovee

@rocketsummer 2 года назад

you know, as much as i hate the textured "bump" that comes with doing gel polish french tips sometimes, i think with the gold it really gives a lot of dimension to the powder.

@Nikkyia 2 года назад

I found a fix for that. Try adding builder gel on top of the colored gel as the next to last step. This makes it smooth enough to conceal the bump before you add the top coat. Complete game changer!

@frauline68 Год назад

Hi they look really good! Did you use 2 coats of the chrome ? Also do you ever get peeling of the chrome after a few days?

@memnail Год назад

Thank you! I used one coat to keep it flat but you can always do two. I have experienced this and it mostly comes down to residue pigment still on your nail surface - it can affect the adhesion of your topcoat and cause it to separate/chip. I sometimes get around this by using a makeup sponge to go over the whole nail, after dusting away but before top coating. Hope that helps :)

@baylaanat9337 Год назад

what do you use to wipe the risidual chrome?

@popaki9484 Год назад

What a genius idea! Thank you for sharing this with us! They look amazing!! If I put a second top coat layer, why does it peel revealing the first top coat layer? Also do you cap the end of your nails with top coat?

@memnail Год назад

Thank you for watching!! It depends on the formula of your topcoat, sometimes you might need to go in with a layer of base coat before topcoat if that’s happening, as the topcoat may need something to grip to. If I’m using gel-x I generally don’t need to cap the ends, but I will do when applying gel to my natural nails. Hope that helps ✨

@barbjalcorn 2 года назад

Great job, I mean, you can see the difference on the index finger and the French brush must have taken away some of the pigment. You’re right though, I think yours looks better than the original. I didn’t like the ridges she had. Good on you ❤️🇦🇺

How long does a chrome is resistant on the nail ? Or does it last like a normal polish ?

@memnail 2 года назад

I seal mine in with two separate layers of gel topcoat and it can last up to three weeks or as long as I keep the nail art on for

@nailissima 2 года назад

When I put top coat on.. All comes out about 3days later. I don't know it's fault of hrome or top coat. Doesn't last nothing

@memnail 2 года назад

It really depends, it could be the chrome or the topcoat. To be safe, I always seal the chrome in with a thin layer of clear builder gel, followed by a layer of topcoat. Or, I do two layers of topcoat x
