Mad Scientist Kirsty | Foil Crystals and 3D Embossed Flowers on Andrea

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi everybody
Welcome to the Kirsty Meakin KZread Channel with gel paint, foil and all kinds of shiz-a-maniz so let’s get cracking.
I’ve already sculpted some ballerina nails so I’m just going to wipe those over first. I’m using all Lecente products today. I’m going to brush on the foil glue with a fan brush which will create little lines in the glue and make this awesome effect.
This next bit is the cool bit, I’m going to drop Top Coat onto the back of the foil and cure it, when I pop it off, I’ll have these really cool, shiny dots that I can pop onto the nails with Top Coat and they’re like cheap gems which are great for hobby nail artists that can’t afford the crystals. You can also do whatever shape you want which is awesome.
I think these nails are a little boring still for Andrea so I’m going to use 3D Gel Paint to paint on some flower designs. I can layer this design up to make it easier and cure between steps to avoid knocking the bits I’ve already done.
I’m finishing with the Indigo Cuticle Oil because it’s my fave. I hope you enjoyed this video, don’t forget to like, comment, subscribe, and all that shebang.

    I'm not sure if it's possible but I'd love the overhead camera back. So much detail is missed without it..... still bossing it 🤍

    AGREEEEEE completely. I’m like the side view is great and the overhead camera is cool but it’s so far zoomed out like I’m not really seeing how it’s being done.. if that makes sense? Idk it’s just hard to see detail 🤷‍♀️ Anyways as always, I love ❤️

Indigo should definitely send you some free stuff, I've spent a fortune with them in the last few months off the back of you using their cuticle oil! I absolutely love their files they're lovely to use, and I have loads of their oils and hand creams now too, they smell amazing. I highly recommend their mineral base gels and am now trying their cover gels too, great products so far! Tfs, can't wait for more, stay safe 😍😍💕💕xxx

    Hey Kirsty been watching your videos for years and always been in awe of what you do and have learnt so much. The only thing I’d say is I’m not a nail tech I study and practice at home on myself and tips but the products you are using are for pro’s only so I have to then search out other brands to try and re-create what you are doing. Could you sometimes do videos where we can actually purchase the goods as well.

    Kirsty, if you use regular tin foil the same way, those little dots would be even shinier when you peel them off it'll take that layer off then you can turn them over and put another dot of top coat on top of that one and make a tiny marble of some sorts. Just a thought 🤷‍♀️

    She's putting the drops of top coat on the back of the foils. I don't think there's any way to use this technique where the top side of the foil would be showing, since that side is covered with plastic film. But like Kirsty said, sometimes the back side of the foil is different and looks really cool!
