@Casen Brixton It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my account!

[@kirstyleslie7468]

Fantastic video. Should be shown to all training nail techs as stuff like this isn’t explained. I’ve been qualified about a year and half and still didn’t some of this. I always thought chrome, mermaid and pigments were the same thing that’s probably why I have issues using them .It’s helped loads and is going into my saved videos. Thankyou for your lessons and explanations your making me a much better tech and providing a lot of knowledge and skills training. X

[@dorotapalicka]

❤🥰 I'm very happy you find it useful. Wasn't sure about this types of videos but I know some of the girls which join our salon had a problems with it how to apply pigments and chromes. If it will be popular upload I may do a bit more of theory ones too

[@nolimitnailz]

@@dorotapalicka please please do!!! So greatful for all your lessons! God given talent to be such a wonderful instructor and educator! 😍😍😍😍

[@latoyamei3070]

Also color(neon) pigments need sticky layer? And also we have normal clitters what normaly i been seen use to give nail color so its inside the gel not like sugar?

[@dorotapalicka]

Yes and yes. So neon pigments are pigments which work on top of inhibition layer. And then we have glitters which we encapsulate

[@pamzile862]

Thanks for this video lol I was one of the confused people that had no idea of the difference in these products

[@dorotapalicka]

I'm actually very happy to see this video was useful. Wasn't sure about this type of content but will be definitely doing more of "theory" ones too

[@cindyshelton3103]

@@dorotapalicka I think it was still confusing because there were to many break downs of too many products. I think it would be more helpful if you put them in separate categories and just did one or two. Love watching you do nails! Fabulous 🎨👩‍🎨 artist! When you buy chrome powder, it really does not tell you which top coats to use which is trouble to me and frustrating!

[@kathytarman2302]

You have explained this better than anyone. Thank you for taking the time to teach us what the difference is. You are so talented. Thank you again and I love you and your videos.

[@sazjay3174]

thanks for this video it has helped me alot, some of the chromes I bought from ebay say they are chrome but when i used no wipe topcoat they didnt work I will have to try with the inhabition layer type top coat and see if this help, i was gonna throw them out thinking they were just rubbish but maybe its just the application technique I was doing is wrong xx

This is perfect! I've been looking for a video like this. I love that you broke them up into the different categories. This definitely helps me while I'm trying to figure out how to store and organize my nail stuff. I love crafts too but we have to live in a trailer and we don't any storage space so I have to really try to use vertical storage and anything else I come up with.

Very informative video, thank you! 🤩 Modelones has those compact chromes and pigments and they seem to work great from what I've seen on review videos 😊 and I looove the new chrome pens, I have purchased from a local company in Sweden and they are amazing! I have several different golds, rose golds and mermaid, I love how it eliminates the mess, wastage and how it used to fly everywhere in the air 😆😍

[@blackestabyss]

Great video! Very helpful, thank you. The solid chrome that you don't care for... can it be used on the inhibition layer, then a top coat? Or would the top coat not really stick?

[@dorotapalicka]

Chromes go matt on inhibition layer. To get mirror look it need no wipe top

[@Steff.C]

This was so helpful! Thank you so much! All the products are very confusing, I stopped buying from eBay/Amazon for these types of things because they sell them with all the names. I stick to reputable companies, often they sell them with instructions too which I mark on the jar because of them all being so different! You are the chrome queen though! x

[@dorotapalicka]

That is true as well that on reputable brand chrome will be described as chrome l, sugar as sugar etc. On ebay everything is chrome, pigment, mermaid in one description 😀 😅 I still like to get some good bargains of ebay but unfortunately some stuff is wasted money

[@krystalfukinmarie757]

Thank you for this video! It certainly does get confusing, all the different ones and what/how to use with each one; especially if you’re newer to all this. I’ve saved this video to one of my playlists so I can reference it later if/when I need to. That really sucks what happened with the pressed kind, I had seen them and considered getting a few. Now I’m glad I didn’t. I also saw the ones you mentioned with 2+ colors in each one. I’ve only bought 2 chameleon pigment pens so far bcuz some of the pot ones have confused me. This was a good video!

[@dorotapalicka]

The pens are actually ok have few as well. They work ok. They don't come off you can see me using here kzbin.info/www/bejne/d17MZYaXbsZ5rKM Is the eyeshadow one that come off

[@christinapersdotter1842]

I would have liked more info about the chrome. I loved the nail that turned bronze, the black with the white sugar.👍😊

[@dorotapalicka]

I have also few videos on chrome aplication like how to make it last etc just search "palicka chrome nails" the black nail was with white sugar 😁 it is available at www.dorotapalicka.com

[@thatswhatshesaid.literally737]

🙆🏻‍♀️ Why didn't I think of this before?! I have a bunch of shimmer mica pigments that I used to make iridescent watercolor paints. I can rub them into the inhibition layer of my nails! 🙏😊Thanks for all the information and great ideas!! 😄👍

[@Mirabylia]

Hi Dorota! I saw tons of videos about this topic, but I always pick up some new and little bit different way of doing mirrors, chromes, sugaring etc-etc. Maybe a few hint might be helpful for You (and your followers too) that I learned. - Lot of chrome will not stick to the surface if the no wipe coat is fully cured. I saw a lot of videos where the nailtechs curing just 5-10 minutes shorter. - Some of them even rub the cured surface with a tiny bit of alcohol (or without alcohol, just a lintfree pad) until it's squeeky (literally, the surface starts squeeking like a new shoe :D ). - Many of them didn't scratch the surface around, instead they use acid free primer on the chrome/foil etc AND just after top coat it. - And I saw many times that they didn't dusting the nail, especially if they rubbed the powder with their fingertips. I hope this will be useful for someone! Sorry if I wrote something in the funny way, but this is not my first language, Still learning by my own. Have a nice day! :):)

[@aliciac110]

Thank you for this information ! I was wondering why some worked and some didn’t . You just answer all my questions 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸👀

[@dorotapalicka]

🤗❤ awesome

[@nancysworld4178]

Thank you for this video. It was very informative. But how can you tell the difference between a pigment and a chrome? Is it only when you try to use them or is there another way? Loved this video!

[@dorotapalicka]

I have done old swatches and they top coated with the no wipe gel so usually quickly wrap this in. In general chrome is the lightes its fly everywhere. Pogments are more "together" consistency 🙈 hopes that make sense

[@deedeeshaw9123]

Thankyou so very much for the video, it was really interesting, I wish I hadn't already bought 6 different colours of the eye shadow type chrome 😔 but we all learn by our mistakes xxx

[@dorotapalicka]

I got about 8 colours too. As they look so pretty. Maby not brush exces of the pigment. I will try yo test on trusted clients to see how it behave on nails. But last time when used on client I took it off as was scared to risk it

[@oonavega1230]

Whoa! So much good info. Now how can I tell what is in the container. They don’t say on the outside what kind they are.

[@dorotapalicka]

Put on your nail like I did on mine if it is shiny and stick it is chrome.(if you have no wipe top on your nails) If not then is pigment. I always keep few old tips so can test it on arrival

[@noneya1691]

I wish you had put a top coat on the camelian chrome that you rubbed into the inhibition layer. It creates a beautiful pearl type finish. I do it all the time because, as it turns out, I am not as in love with the chrome finish as I used to be. I do love how you explained everything. I have some experience so it made sense to me but I can see how it could be confusing to less experienced people.

[@dorotapalicka]

I didn't as I prefer the chrome look of it. But yes the pearl effect can be nice too x

[@ancaioana.28]

Big ty for sharing this video I think I’v got it now ..I’v got some flakes which layer do they go on ? know you can use them to rub in or just place the flakes down ... I was going to purchase some of those eyeshadow one today ..so plsed they are still in my basket ...what do you think of the pen ones you show ? as have they are also in my basket ..

[@dorotapalicka]

The pens are good I have tested them here kzbin.info/www/bejne/d17MZYaXbsZ5rKM The flakes can go ether way depending on results we want achive. I like to use the flakes for encapsulation. But again they are 2 types of flakes (the ones which work as chrome) and just a glitter ones

[@Skalyon2]

Wish you showed this on darker color. Still was very helpful i have these exact powders. Thank u.

[@dorotapalicka]

Will do some more x

[@magikdust2095]

This video was really interesting, and definitely helpful. I do have a question about the chrome powder though, if you end up putting it on the sticky layer, either on purpose, or by accident, and it turns matte colored instead of the super shiny chrome coloured, would it turn shiny again if you add a glossy top coat on top of it? Or would that shiny chrome look just not look the same? You never showed how it would look if you top coated it afterwards, which I think would've been interesting to see. But this was a great video, with a lot of useful information. 👍

[@sydneyadams7292]

What is the intuibion layer?

[@dorotapalicka]

A sticky layer of uncured gel. That happens when the oxygen prevents the gel from curing properly. Make sure to remove it with a UV cleanser properly.

[@loridemichele7842]

I used all of the powders on a no wipe topcoat but you only cure for 10sec or 20 and than apply products it works like a gem! If your do full cure it won't work with no wipe top coat or polish. But still going to try and do this way but I don't think I own a no wipe coat🙄

[@dorotapalicka]

No wipe is a dry top coat (no inhibition layer) it works best for me
