I know right? That shit was like crack.

Karen your voice is sooo soothing. Your an excellent teacher.

[@Anon_E_Muss]

Thank you for showing us in both mediums of gel and acrylic. I see so many tutorials in acrylic and I feel like us hard gel lovers are missing out. You guys are the best and have a new customer for life!

[@mimitortilla157]

My Black Friday sale order is out for delivery right now and my gel, palette, and palette knife are waiting for my new glitters to arrive…this is the perfect video to get me hyped!!

[@lauralou64]

I’ve been looking for a palette knife. May I ask where you got yours?

[@mimitortilla157]

@@lauralou64 I got an Arteza one from Amazon! Size 7-1 fits nicely into the containers to scoop out the gel but the sides are long enough to mix efficiently.

Hope to see Melissa back soon with some tutorials, haven't seen any videos from her in a while

[@vivalavienails]

She and her husband moved to Vegas and she is building clientele out there so maybe that's why she hasn't recorded much 🤔 If you love her videos you should consider signing up for one of her classes. I have done 1 so far and it was so much fun.

I wish we could get multiple glitters for one price. Or even all the glitters as a collection for one price. Like glitter bundles how you did for the Black Friday sale with the new glitters. But for all the glitters all the time. Lol.

[@Mslasvegas]

Can you use a thick gel top coat like apres? I don't use builder gel. What craft glitter should you look for that will cure all the way through? Didn’t know curing issues could happen with different types of glitter?

[@youngnailsinc]

We don't test our products and techniques with other brands, so we are unable to say if others will work. As for using craft glitters, these may not be cosmetic grade and the colors may bleed when mixed with nail products.

[@gigiwatkins1270]

The color Karen is wearing is beautiful, what color purple is that?

[@youngnailsinc]

It is ManiQ Bromance.

[@peggysmith5332]

Can use the regular base coat or builder gel for the glitters.

[@tabg9029]

Can you mix a top coat and glitter thin to get more of your background color? Like for an ombre?

[@youngnailsinc]

You can mix glitter into your top coat as long as the glitter isn't too opaque and will still cure all the way through. You could also add iridescent glitter to the mix to give it more translucency to allow it to cure all the way through.

[@KathyMcDowell1]

Thanks!

[@OfficialLadyDarkSky]

Karen can we add glitter into the dip acrylic? and if so how much is it to add? also that gold glitter is OMG what colour is that?

[@nailedbyjen8317]

It's fortune..I just. Ordered 1

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes, you can mix glitter into your dip powders. The ideal ratio of acrylic to glitter is 3 parts acrylic to 1 part glitter. If you have our clear mixing jars, you can fill up to the bottom edge where the cap twists on with your acrylic & then the rest of the way with glitter, but leave a little space so you can shake it up. And the gold glitter is called Fortune!

[@spooksya]

Answered a lot of my issues😂

[@frmr121]

Could you please do a video comparing glitter press vs sugaring?

[@youngnailsinc]

[@keesimeehan1357]

Hello, So in regards to capping glitter she said you want to cap because if you don't when you file it's going to leave little silver flakes..... but isn't that what you want for the effect? Also I've been doing glitter tips so I'd do my nail plate with pink or clear acrylic but then doing my whole tip area using the glitter and clear acrylic formula. So after laying the acrylic I would need to file down before capping or top coating otherwise your not shaping or anything. Am I doing that right? In saying that I haven't been capping at all.

[@youngnailsinc]

Many glitters are a silver glitter with a colored coating. If you don't cap with clear, when you file, you will file the surface color off of the glitter and all that will remain is the silver. If you are doing a glitter free edge, you would apply a thin layer of the glitter/acrylic mix and then cap with a thin layer of clear acrylic. Once that is set, you can file without filing off any glitter out of your design. Here's a quick video to give you an idea of our technique. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX6rfZaqgsyha7c&feature=shares

[@keesimeehan1357]

@YoungNailsInc Ok great thanks for that video, I'll be doing that from now on.

[@shelleypinkerton4998]

Young nails products are truly remarkable. The tutorials have increased my confidence when doing my nails as well as others. I'm excited about the young nails #YNGIVEAWAY

[@carolprice3142]

Can you add a gel polish to the gel to add color if you don’t want glitter

[@youngnailsinc]

You would just use your gel polish on the nail instead of adding glitter

[@EllaSkye]

When adding glitter to speed clear, does it change how fast the speed clear sets?

[@6synsMUSIC]

yes i would assume so with any acrylic. glitter definately thickens acrylic up

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes, it will set a little slower when you add glitter to your powders.

[@unexpectedly2020]

When you put top coat after glitter layer, what tips do you have do that glitter doesn't get stuck to the top coat brush?

[@a.therese7886]

If there’s glitter cured into gel but has some falling off, I would recommend a nail brush (the stiff ones with the handles if you know what I mean) and just brushing the surface to get any loose glitter off before topcoat If glitter still gets on the brush, keep a lint free wipe next to you and wipe off the brush before dipping it back in bottle :) Other advice that’s recommended by the pros is to maybe keep one topcoat for glitters and one for non glitters if possible :)

[@unexpectedly2020]

@@a.therese7886 thank you so much!

[@youngnailsinc]

We like to have a separate top coat for anything glitter.

[@evelyngrace9954]

@@youngnailsinc yes I agree. I learned this over the years haha

[@kariechaos5382]

There's no wrong way to glitter, its all about how you want the finish to look.

[@adelita1974]

Do you put a gel top coat on top of a sugar glitter nail??

[@youngnailsinc]

No you do not

[@OTseven]

😮😊

[@amyangelicagomezherrera7595]

14:47 Is it better to apply the glitter to the nail directly from the container instead of using the cuticle pusher? (I'm sorry, I'm using Google traductor)

[@youngnailsinc]

It's a personal preference. Some people like to use directly from the jar, but if you feel like you have more control with a sanitized cuticle pusher, you are welcome to use that method.

[@jmrgunners]

Is there a problem with curing the gel when there is that much glitter in it?

[@youngnailsinc]

When mixing glitter into gel, the only issue people tend to have with curing is if they only mix dense glitters that will not allow the light through. For example, any of our "Illum" glitters should be mixed with another glitter to break it up. Illum glitters are solid silver glitters with a colored coating, so the light doesn't always get through them to cure. If you mix another color with them, that will allow the light in between and will cure just fine. A couple of great glitters to mix with these are the iridescent ones (Crystal, Crushed Pearl, Diamond Dust etc).

[@jmrgunners]

@@youngnailsinc Excellent. Thank you! That is valuable information.

What are the advantages of PROTIEN BOND

[@youngnailsinc]

Protein bond is a non acid primer.. it doesn’t chemically etch the nail like a traditional primer does. Protein stays sticky.. sticks to the natural nail and then sticks the product.

[@bougienails7180]

Hi

[@stacyorick8764]

Sugaring, glitter press…… the difference being?

[@youngnailsinc]

Sugaring is when you pour the glitter on top of uncured gel and then cure it leaving it with that just dusted sugar look. You do not apply a top coat. kzbin.info/www/bejne/boe5pHt7jambirc Glitter press is when you press the glitter into the tacky layer of cured gel and then brush it down so no glitter is sticking up. You do top coat this one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqnPY2mIibGcmqc
