FOIL NAILS UPDATE

First off - THANK YOU!! Wow, you guys never cease to amaze me with your kindness. Yesterday I asked for some help with doing foil nails and you all came through for me. I appreciate it soooo much.


I ordered my foils from Transdesign. (You can find it under Nail Art and then Foils.) Here is my foil primer and foil sealer I ordered and used:





As far as my application techniques. First I painted my nails with the primer and waited for it to "dry" - you let the primer go clear. Then I applied my foils. And like Mary, I did mine backwards at first too, lol! When you use the foil, you place the plain side down on you nails and leave the design side facing you. After I finished applying foil to all my nails then I went and applied the Foil Sealer, which is where I ran into my problems. I did get a suggestion to wait a longer period of time before applying the top coat, so I will give that a shot. But from my searching online, I see this has been a problem for a lot of people, but I haven't seen where anyone has a solution.

SO that's my update so far.
