CHEAP vs. EXPENSIVE Foil Glue Gels | Nail Foil Tutorial | iGel, Makartt, & Daily Charme

Foils can be a pain in the rear, but never fear, Jen is here! Today I'll put three foil gels head to head to determine which is the best for getting you that flawless foil transfer.
I have with me a bottle of iGel Beauty's Foil Transfer Gel, Makartt's Foil Gel Glue, and Daily Charme's Foil Transfer Gel. Is it really worth it to pay $25, or can you save some coin and go for the cheaper option? Let's find out.

When it comes to foils, I have found the best practice is to wipe the back of the foil, before application. Especially, if it has that orangy brown backing.. it should be silvery in color. Even if they are already silver or the clear kind, I always wipe them, as you dont know what could be on it. And its a wipe, not a scrub. I started with foils, back when it was an actual glue, there wasn't a curable kind. Waiting before application was a must, the longer the better. So, when out of the lamp, I wait, 1 min. Before going in with foils. Its like the heat is a bad thing... when they've cooled off, it transfers better. I then started seeing manufacturers saying, to wait a min before going in with your foil, so I knew I must be on to something. I really like this series of comparison you've got going on. I hope you have more coming in the future. Thank you for sharing 😊

😂😍💅🏽 the trick I found to make the foil adhere to the nail better is after a 60 second cure wait a least anther 6o seconds after your hand is out of the lamp before applying the foil. Your videos are so cool and funny
