Oooh... Now I know what to do in order to prevent the Gold colour from turning into another color... Thank you for this video Liz!

[@YoungDymisty]

I know this was years ago but if you still read the comments thank you this was really informative also those fingers look scary real lol😅

[@Nails_By_Kimberlee]

Lol, I liked it when you said you could put some paper underneath that first nail to save your glitter. I watch another nail channel (which I love) but they're so wasteful with glitter! They always say "well, you're charging your customer for it so don't worry", but waste is waste. Why be wasteful if you can prevent it? Ok, rant over lol.

[@QueenB-ic9eo]

If you cant afford 25 + shipping on the kantana you can find similar ones that do the same thing for under 5$ on Aliexpress For people that DONT have the money to spare. They work just the same and last just as long.

[@carolbeckett7276]

So glad to watch this. I didn't have lint free wipes found. Coffee filters worked great till I old get some.

[@sueperry9327]

I pour my glitter over a cupcake paper. That way I can pour the excess back in to the jar.

[@edithelbourn7385]

Girls put a cupcake liner under application of glitter to catch fall out, the glitter easily can be put back into container.👍

[@cassandralee9172]

I love encapsulation because I hate texture in my nails and beads always catch on my hair. With this I never have catching and its smooth to the touch!

I use a sheet of photo paper when I mixing gels. 4 x 6 photo paper is non-toxic and safe, plus it is like $6 for 100 sheets, you can mix multiple sets on the same sheet, and use a pen to make dividing lines to prevent spillage. And when you are done with it, simply dispose.

Cool tip about the primer/ph bond. I have been struggling with encapsulation especially with finish file. I always get the bubbles or see the scratches in it. Thank you 🤗

Only works with bonder or super thin base coats. PH Bond and dehydrators wont do anything. Has to be that sticky thin bonder type product.

[@gabronijabroni]

I'm teaching myself self-manicures at home and this video was soooo helpful thank you so much! I always wondered why the base gel I used was sticky after curing- now I know it's because the top layer is exposed to oxygen under the curing lamp but underneath the foil the gel is not sticky.

[@TheNailHub]

Glad it was helpful!

[@samanthamann7001]

Great video as always! The tip about the primer to help with scratches in the glitter was priceless ,now I know how to fix that. May I ask what product you used? Cheers from down under 🌺🐨

[@TheNailHub]

I used Luminary "Commit". We have it on THENAILHUB.COM

[@pamelakitchens5549]

That nail is so pretty reminds me of a strawberry

[@loudwhitenoise_]

i did the dry glitter method and the gel has a tendency to retreat from the edges of each hex of glitter as it shrinks with the cure, a little frustrating, i just ended up filling in with more layers and thickness

[@Dazzling_scents_with_chris]

I love that tip about going back into the lamp after you add the foil before top coat! I'm wondering, will this also work for a glitter fade? I find that I will brush my glitter to the tacky layer and love the fade I get but then I top coat and it moves it! will this tip help that as well??? thanks so much for the amazing info you provide!

[@TheNailHub]

For a glitter fade I would personally recommend mixing glitter into gel first and then creating the fade with your custom mix so you cut down on mess. But yes, any time you are covering the inhibition layer and you re-cure it helps to cure that now covered area and lock in what you have put on top. The inhibition layer (sticky layer) is in fact uncured gel so once it's covered it will cure.

[@Dazzling_scents_with_chris]

@@TheNailHub thanks! You're the best!

[@taraclark4356]

so for the first part with the glitter, after u apply top coat / glitter then cure....what are u using for the "wet layer"? the builder gel or top coat?

[@jeanniewahine5443]

She used builder gel.

[@emilyaponte4102]

So after the second coat of color, do you put under the uv light and then apply the foil or apply it before?

[@jeanniewahine5443]

You cure it first. The sticky inhibition layer that remains after you cure the color is what holds the foil. So make sure you don't wipe it off, but if you do, you can apply a thin layer of clear top coat that has a sticky layer (like she did in the video). Also, be sure the color isn't no-wipe such as a one step polish some brands sell. You want the sticky layer that's left after curing.

[@sarahbidstrupnielsen5542]

Ooh so helpful Liz, tysmfs!!!! 🤘🏻😍 So, that tip with “re-curing” the gel/polish when applying the foil, could/would that work when doing glitters etc?

[@TheNailHub]

Yes works with almost anything that covers the inhibition layer during the subsequent cure. Helps a lot.

[@sarahbidstrupnielsen5542]

Yes wonderful!! How did I not figure that out lol, thank you - and awesome response time! 🤘🏻👌🏻❤️
