HOW TO APPLY NAIL TRANSFER FOIL // HOW TO USE NAIL ART FOIL WITH PRODUCTS FROM TEMU

[@nailswithmandy]

Thank you all so much for watching! I was doing some experimenting with nail foil today and found out you can use gel polish as a replacement for nail foil glue. Just as long as it has a tacky layer it works great!

[@fuzzybunny3235]

I didn’t have much success with star glue. If it’s applied too thick or thin, it doesn’t work. The gel foil transfer glue is a game changer! Thin, even layer - cure for 90 seconds and transfer foil. I get a clean, full transfer every time.

[@nailswithmandy]

I’m sorry it didn’t work for you. I’ve never tried any other nail foil glues so I didn’t have anything to compare it to but it worked alright for me. I would definitely consider trying out gel foil glue. Thank you for the tip!

[@jenpierce2385]

What brand of foil gel do you use please ❤.. I have zero success with the star glue. I get a full transfer about half of the time 😢

[@fuzzybunny3235]

@@jenpierce2385 I just use the Mobray foil gel from Shein. I’ve heard the Makartt foil gel (Amazon) is great too.

[@shay514]

What brand gel foil glue do you use? I haven't had success with this star glue yet

I have used foil glue, I’ve used foil gel. Has taken me much frustration and many tries to get the foil to stick at all. I have to say the old fashioned glue that air dries works far better than the gel cured with a lamp. Yours look great. X

[@nailswithmandy]

I wasn’t sure about foil gel but I’m glad I used the regular foil glue instead. I hope this video helped and thank you for watching!💗

[@hoptoit5910]

Thank you for this. I found it super helpful. I just ordered some foils off Temu but had no idea how to use foils and didn’t order any star glue. I have now and can’t wait to apply them. ❤

[@nailswithmandy]

I’m so glad the video was helpful! Have fun applying the nail foil!

[@eden8817]

Thank you for this! I bought some transfer foil off temu but thought it was self adhesive so when it arrived I thought it was defective 😅 Going to try now with polish and glue and see which works best!

[@nailswithmandy]

No problem! I’d be curious to see which one works best too. Thank you for watching!

[@msboss0188]

I just did the same thing now here I am 😂

[@mandihayward8773]

Me as well. I thought it was a sticker

Thank you for the tutorial. I always have problems applying the foilson my natural nails.

[@nailswithmandy]

You’re welcome, I hope it helped!

[@naomim5015]

so is the glue just applied to your bare, natural nail? How long after you apply the glue do you wait to apply the foil?

[@nailswithmandy]

You can apply it to your bare nail or over nail polish. I wait until the nail foil glue dries. The amount of time to wait for it to dry may vary depending on what brand of nail foil glue you have. Hope this helps!

[@hollyanne4856]

i think i tried foils once, and the topcoat shrunk/crinkled and looked terrible after? did i do it wrong? wanting to try again, but not interested in using gel or uv machines. thanks!

[@nailswithmandy]

I’ve never used regular nail polish topcoat over nail foil, but it could be the brand of topcoat you’re using.

[@jenpierce2385]

With nail foils regular top coats seem to kinda eat the foil it's so weird.. I'm pretty sure people use water based topcoat if they don't use gels (UNT for instance yes it's a peel off base coat but can be used for foil and chromes then you can apply your topcoat of choice).. there is a way Sista I promise you that.. search here on KZbin.. type in foils without gel products 🥰

[@liamlowenthal8476]

Oh *thats* when you use cuticle oil. Man I was lost on that one lol My friend got me this pretty bottle and it's just been sitting there XD

[@nailswithmandy]

I love cuticle oil, It really does make your nails stronger! Thanks for watching!

[@kathybastian6934]

Do I have to buy special glue? Can I use base coat?

[@nailswithmandy]

I’m guessing that you could use a gel base coat. I haven’t tried base coat with foil but I’ve tried it with gel polish and it works well as long as there is a tacky layer. Hope this helps!

[@shayaanali4251]

Can we use simple top coat as a nail tranfer glue if we dont have thaat glue?

[@nailswithmandy]

I’m not sure 🤔 I would love to know if you do try it!

[@vlogsandfoodfestbynooria1671]

Have u tried ??.....I'm thinking to do same... Let me know about your experience...if u did this experiment

Did u cure the foil glue?

[@nailswithmandy]

The foil glue I used was air dry but if you use a gel foil glue you cure it before applying the foil. Thanks for watching!

[@brittneyclay5021]

What if I don’t have transfer glue? Can I use something else instead?

[@Bubbling_pepperoni_rash]

The one comment I needed the answer to and it doesn't have any replies 🤦‍♀️ have you found out yet???

[@brittneyclay5021]

@@Bubbling_pepperoni_rash unfortunately, I haven’t. I was thinking to try to see would using a base or top coat while it’s still wet to see would it transfer the nail foil on the nail, but I haven’t tried it yet.

[@nailswithmandy]

Gel polish with a sticky layer sometimes can work as a replacement for nail foil glue.

I just added it in the description box. Thanks for watching!

[@sonyasonya9047]

@@nailswithmandy Thank you. When I clicked the link, I got "This item was discontinued.", maybe because I'm in Canada? I can't find this kind of product on Temu or in brick & mortar stores. I guess I'll have to get some on Amazon. Thanks for trying to help me, though.

[@makeup561]

These look so very pretty ❤❤

[@nailswithmandy]

Thank you so much❤️

[@angelrussell1616]

How long do you cure for? I cure mine for 90s and let mine cool down for about 10s. Do your nail glue air dry?

[@nailswithmandy]

I normally like to do 120 just to be sure, but it depends on the brand of gel. The nail glue I use did air dry. Thank you for watching!

[@Brahmapatil4292]

Mam yo wala sticker kitna din rahta hai

It's a foil but if you use gel products you can get two weeks out of them maybe longer

[@lboyd6065]

It's called cuticle pusher

[@MissBeast.]

Can we use the nail foil glue to glue rhinestone too?

[@nailswithmandy]

You probably can but I haven’t tried it

[@hollaatthekid1796]

No, not sticky enough for that. You will need a rhinestone glue or builder gel for stones.
