@@cindyholland363 that's awesome, I'm glad it helped! Have fun :)

@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!

@NightBorne2 hi 👋 yes those are fine. Lots of people prefer those type anyways as they are less likely to break, and mould to the natural nail easier. Have fun!

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie Thank you so much!!!

@@linnlinn876 I only use foil glue if it's a full cover design. Anything else , I just use the tacky layer of the cured gel. Xx

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

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie omg TYSM for yr help!! 💗 I definitely subscribed...💗💗💗

They're sticky on both sides. You need to peel off the protective layer x

Thanks ! You could kind reuse them for a quick fix but they'll never be as sturdy as when you first applied them x

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie ok tysm 😊

You can just set them in topcoat but it won't last as long. If you have a builder gel, or acrylic, you can use those too. :)

Thats great to hear 😊

Sometimes I would put several on a stick, it's hard to get the free edge if it has stick underneath it though. Do what works best for you :)

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie Girl you’re quick, I’m still watching it 😆

@@hershekissed 😆😆😆

Thank you so much 💓 I'm actually Canadian but I've been married to a Glaswegian for a very long time so my accent gets confused sometimes! 😆😆 I love that you thought I was Scottish. That's the biggest compliment 😊

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie oh!!!! Haha! That makes sense! My husband is Canadian, so I understand!

@gmitc089 wow! We are like opposites! How funny 😁

If it's 100% the same as when you applied it, your light isn't suitable. But if you're just wiping it off and some color is coming off but the design remains, just don't wipe it, and apply a topcoat.

Hello, Yes you can layer magnetic over chrome : )

It came with a bunch of wee nibs, but I don't think I ended up using them . They seemed irrelevant. 🤔

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie what's the name of the pen, I'm looking to buy one. AliExpress has alot of stuff and cannot decide I was thinking of maybe something else

@samanthanicholson9015 if you look for a nail art calligraphy pen you should find it. In all honesty, it's not something that I used very often, because I find it easier to free hand with a detail brush but it is a cool option to have, and usually they're inexpensive.

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie oh great and thanks, the brush I have seems to rotate off if I hit towards the end...I need to practice but I. Oval or curves it isn't doing good I do better free hand draw on paper.

@samanthanicholson9015 it certainly pays to invest in some high quality brushes and gel paint. If you're using brushes from Ali Express or similar and Gel polish, you would benefit trying something from a reputable company that specialises in nail art. Either way, keep practicing and you'll keep improving! Xx

It's dead easy to switch colors, just rinse it out with water :)

Consistent Hydration is key :)

No you don't need to. Just remove cuticle from the nail plate and ensure the natural nail is clean, dry and free from oils. :)

@@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie ok great

It's cool eh! Definitely takes some getting used to but can be really effective. Yes, definitely topcoat or it will wear away very easily.

Nect you would prime and apply the product you're using to build your structure. Acrylic or gel or polygel or whatever. :)
