Thanks to Riley Ramsingh @damningeden for sharing this tip!
Disclaimer: use at your own risk, and I wouldn't use expensive polishes for this. Use cheap polishes you can replace easily and don't mind ruining in case it doesn't work.
Ingredients of Fructis Anti-Frizz hair serum: Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethiconol, Parfum/fragrance, Argania Spinosa kernel oil, Prunus Armeniaca kernel oil, Hexyl cinnamal, benzoyl alcohol, linalool, amyloid cinnamal
If you can't find this specific product, I would look for a product with the first two ingredients high on the ingredient list. I have always heard that any ingredient after the fragrance is not significant.
Polishes also used for fluid art:
Barielle Lemondrops
Barielle Banana Drop
Sinful Colors Sugar Pumpkin
Sally Hansen XW Wet Cement
Born Pretty Store mini mat item ID=43717 #prsample
Just thought I'd let you guys know that the cell forming Sleek 'n Shine recipe, works with just about any kind of shine, straightening, sleek product - works even better if you transfer a little in a spray bottle and use it directly on your "stickers". Also, if you don't own a flat enough stamper to pick up or double stickers, flip the jelly in it's case and use backside of stamper… works like a charm!!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
@@KyongLee No prob ! My pleasure… Love your videos, can't get enough of them - you're my nail art guru !!! Lolll
I was able to purchase a carton of the Wet N Wild from Family Dollar online store (they would only sell it in a carton) so thought this might be helpful to anyone using a lot of it. Thanks for this very cool tip!
I just found the clear Wet&Wild at Dollar Tree today!
How many were in the carton ?
It was the one bottle in a blister card.
I love the result !!!! 💛💛💛💛
Thanks a lot for sharing !! 😍👌😊
Thanks for sharing! So excited to try this!
Ooh that’s awesome! I use that serum in my hair routine. I’m definitely going to try this!
So glad it worked for you thanks for the shout out! Love the video. Thanks for joining Em and I in the colors for fluid friday too!
Love this technique! The serum is so affordable!! Cant wait to try!!
You guys are awesome. I wanted a product with clear to use with any polish. Thanks I will do this soon . Tfs😘💕🙋🏾♀️
So beautiful!!
Thank you so much for sharing this information, I was interested in finding out how to do this myself and your video is perfect!
TFS! This looks awesome! Can't wait to try it!!!😊😊
Wow awesome!!! TFS!!!
Tfs. Love this! 😍
TFS This is awesome! Thank you guys for all of the great hacks!
I just went out to the store and picked up the hair serum and a clear polish and the results are fantastic. Thanks for the tip!!
Did you use any clear top coat?
Love this!
Great DIY .. love the fluid art that you share. P.S.#love your Star Wars mani .. tfs Jill
I did this last week with black, white and clear polishes. They work great! :-)
Yay! Glad to hear it worked for you.
this worked great for me! i used john frieda frizz ease which has the exact same first 2 ingredients and it was what i use on my hair. thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Awesome to hear!
Thanks I wasn't able to buy Garnier Serum but my sister has got Frieda Frizz ease
Hi Kyong, i have subscribed to your channel, i loved this hack💜😍as soon as i have time i will put it into practice.
I will link your video from my blog and mention in my IG👍😊
Thanks for sharing, big hugs😘💋
Freaking amazing!
Ooooh I’ve got to give this a try 🤓
Thanks for showing the "recipe ". I tried it with blabk and white. The black came out perfectly but I think I used too much of the serum in the white because it got all gloppy.
I need to buy a clear because all my clear polish is fast drying topcoat.
I love this so much!
I’ve been watching fluid artists on UA-cam for a few months as I have been sick with aspiration pneumonia I haven’t been able to do much else & ive been trying to figure out how I could get this to work in nail polish so I didn’t have to rely on just my sinful colors transforming tc polishes since A: they no longer make them & B: I wanted more color options so thanks so much! I am now hooked on fluid art period now and since I have a ton of apple barrel acrylic paints which I use when going nail art anyway I can now use them to do some art for my new nail studio (which I also am planning to make when I get over this darn pneumonia! I aspirated again a couple days Go so I’m back to square 1 with being sick and it sux! It’s all bc of injuries I sustained when I was hit by a drunk driver and left for dead if y’all want details let me know I’ll fill u in). Thanks so much for the info!
The spotted polish I bought didn’t seem to work for cells (prob over a year ago now) but maybe I could try it this way? It looks so good!!
I am going to add a little of the Fructis to one of SC Transforming colors that stopped producing cells. It can't hurt since it doesn't work anymore anyway...
BRILLIANT idea and so so so MUCH MORE cost effective!!! I can't thank you and Riley both for this incredible idea!! I do have a QUESTION: My "medium" is primarily gel polish; do you know if this technique would work in any of those? I guess they are probably considered like a resin base??
I don't know for sure since I haven't tried it but I don't think so.
awesome tip...thanks Kyong. I wonder how some hand gel sanitizer would work. I've seen it tried on watermarbling
Hmm, I don't know. What are the ingredients?
@@KyongLee Active Ingredients: Ethyl alcohol 70%
Inactive Ingredients: Water (aqua), Isopropyl Alcohol, Caprylyl Glycol, Glycerin, Isopropyl Myristate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Acrylates/C10-30 Acrylate Crosspolymer, Aminomethyl Propanol, Fragrance (Parfum)
Great video! Thank you! I'd like to ask what are your little rubber/ silicone mats that you are using?
The little round silicone mats are from Born Pretty Store item ID 43717. I love them and use them all the time. Lantern and Wren also carries these if you want them quicker.
@@KyongLee Thank you 💖
Kyong, I forgot to mention that I love watching the cells form also. I'm dying to try fluid art using a canvas and acrylics. I think you would love it too!
I would like to try it too but it requires so much in materials. And it seems quite messy. Maybe as the weather warms, I can try in the garage where I can't make too much of a mess lol.
This is fantastic! I happen to have 2 bottles of that of Wet and Wild - and I have a question. When you say you like this better than 'straight-up silicon' - do you mean you used silicon ONLY or silicon mixed with wet and wild? I'm tempted to try silicon that I have for other kinds of artwork (cosmetic grade) because why buy something I don't need? But then. at the moment I only have two bottles and don't want to ruin one. Silicon is a primary ingredient in this hair shiners and smoothers.
I've tried both, straight up silicone oil and mixing it with polish. My results were inconsistent. Sometimes it worked great and sometimes I couldn't get cells. If you want to try, dirty pour method seems best, plus you don't need to mix into an existing polish, just the cup.
Hi Kyong, do you use your stamper to apply them when you're happy with the spotting? X
Sometimes but it can be hard to place with a stamper since the decals are opaque. It's easier if you cut them down some. Often I place them on my nail and then use a squishy stamper to press them down evenly.
@@KyongLee thank you hun xxxx
Hi Kyong, I've made black, white and clear. I've let them all settle overnight. And I can't get it to spot! I might have put too much serum in.
Darn it,lol.
But I'm not giving up yet. I'll try again.
Try with different combinations of polishes. Creme formulas spot the easiest. Glitters and shimmers can be trickier.
I used Wet & Wild cream black and white. And the same clear you used. I have a feeling it's because I used too much. But thanks for your encouragement,!
The second ingredient of this serum is Dimethiconol, which is a silicone (super bad for you hair, btw), so essentially probably any silicone will work. Otherwise you're a genius and I love your videos :)
The weird thing is I tried straight up silicone oil, and it wasn't as effective. But I may have put too much in though... The proportions can be tricky.
@@KyongLee It may be the first ingredient, which is also a silicone. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm thinking it may be an evaporating silicone/solvent. Neutrogena oil free eye makeup remover has some in it. It separates and floats to the top and you can use an eyedropper to get it out.
Awesome thank!
Do you know if the clear polish works equally good (would be nice) or if it would create better results creating a coloured version?
Btw, I'm glad I found your account through my google search about custom fluid nail polish - you have a new subscriber :)
I like the clear version because you can do any color combo without creating new colored versions every time. However, clear is a little trickier to work with. You have to be careful to not create holes (blank spots) in the fluid art with the clear. Does that make sense?
@@KyongLee Makes perfect sense! Even with the self-made version being significantly cheaper than those regular fluid nail polishes, I'd hate to have to buy dozens of nail polishes just for this purpose. I will definitely try it out this week with the clear one, thank you!!
Thank you so much!!! I've tried it and finally cells!!!!! I'm not a professional but the daughter of a great one.
Would love to show you mine and see what you think? I'm new to social media lol
Yay! I am not a professional either. Would love to see yours. Do you use either Instagram or Messenger?
@@KyongLee I have messenger . Dont know how to upload my pics on instagram yet Lol and I have an email.
If you want to give me your full name on Messenger or your email address, I will message you, and you can show me yours.
@@KyongLee awesome!!!!! Perla Sandkam and email is perlamazu@gmail.com Thank you so much Kyong!!!
Hi Ms. KyongLee I couldn't find any return response from you and finally found this so excited to see what you think and any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!! All my friends follow you now they are blown away with my nails. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon!
Can you use any clear to coat for this? I can't get wet and wild here in stores...
Most clear coats should work. Just make sure it's not a quick dry top coat.
Do you have to add the frutis sleek and clear to clear polish or could I add it to a white polish?
You can add it to any polish but some formulas and brands work better than others so it's a little trial and error.
@@KyongLee , thank you sweetheart! I've been trying to find out this information (or recipe, 😆) for ever it seems like and them the other day your video/tutorial basically just gel I my lap, hahaha! Thank you so so much!!
Now, this is super great! If I don't find exact product in my country, what shall I look for instead? Anti frizz or hair serum? What is the key?
I added this to the description box as well. Ingredients of Fructis Anti-Frizz hair serum: Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethiconol, Parfum/fragrance, Argania Spinosa kernel oil, Prunus Armeniaca kernel oil, Hexyl cinnamal, benzoyl alcohol, linalool, amyloid cinnamal
If you can't find this specific product, I would look for a product with the first two ingredients high on the ingredient list. I have always heard that any ingredient after the fragrance is not significant.
@@KyongLee Thanks! I will check those! Demethicol I think is the one that makes cells in acrilic pour.
If you find a different product that works, can you let me know so I can update the description? It may help others who can't find this as well.
@@KyongLee Ok, I will. I think Elvital hair oil would work as well since it has Dimethiconol too. It creates cells with acrilic paints. I saw that in one video. It was said there were that two ingredients are to look for if one wants to make cells- dimethiconol and I don't remember the other. Can't find the video. It was long time ago.
Yes, Dimethiconol is the one that makes cells. I found that video.
Hm?Interesting!
Upon investigation, it appears (to me, anyway) that argen oil might be the secret ingredient that causes the cells. (Since I’d heard earlier about the use of silicone oil for the same type of thing) So, I’m ordering some argen oil with a dropper to see if I can make that work the same way. Interesting!
I have argan oil. Want me to try before you order?
I wonder about this because there must be so little argan oil in the hair serum. Even using a dropper, I do know if I can prevent putting too much in a bottle of polish.
Have you tried it out? I actually think it is the Dimethiconol as this is some type of silicone and a quite big ingredient in the serum
I've just tried this, the exact same way and I get even smaller cells than those...I would like bigger ones but it's impossible to get my hand on the dance legend or baroness x spot it in france :(
Can you make this with gel polish?
I don't think so because how would the curing process work?
Awesome! I’ve been watching a lot of painters who work in fluid art as their preferred medium and a lot of them use the Garnier Fructis anti frizz hair serum to get cells as it’s so much cheaper than like treadmill oil and the like esp given they use a lot more of it than we would because they create these super large paintings with all these different pouring techniques to get different size cells, different amounts of cells, different types of cells & different cell “rings” which is so sooo cool so if y’all ever are just stumped as to how to create the look you want or where to begin or just maybe want some insp on your nail art just type in fluid art into UA-cam & you will find some cool tutorials! I’ve learned so much esp about getting cells because I got these transforming top coats a few years ago when they 1st came out and I had no idea why I couldn’t get them to work & at the time there just were not a lot of nail artists using them esp because most nail artists were actually nails tech or being sponsored by a certain nail product line, or they were only doing their own nail product lines & thus using UA-cam as a marketing tool to advertise what their products could do. So very few nail tutorials were available and I ha e learned so much from watching these artists and mixing what I learned with the nail artists have really helped me to take an idea or nail product & make it my own! I encourage everyone to take a look at artists if you are able to and just see what’s out there you can really learn a lot it just about this type of technique but about alcohol painting and the like. Thanks for sharing this info with us today I’m so excited to try my hand w/making my own diy trftc!
I just tried this. My bottle of clear shattered! I saved what I could in another bottle but am getting no calls at all!
Not sure why the bottle would shatter. Try using creme formulas only and fold over only once pressing lightly. Some polishes don't want to create cells.
Can you use any clear?
You should be able to, just not any quick drys or water based.
You could use a base of gel, make the decal like above and then seal it with a gel too coat!
I follow this exactly and don't get one cell
I just tried this using random supplies on hand: Sally Hansen Double Duty and my daughters TRESemme' Keratin Smooth Shine Serum.....it worked perfectly and I've never tried fluid art before! I'm going to post a few pics on my instagram (I'm new to it and have no clue what I'm doing lol) dorkydigits if anyone would like to see them.
Awesome! Tag me @kyong.lee.92 when you post.
Slightly digressing, but... I mark my caps "F" for Frankenpolish if I've altered the contents in any way... What's your system?
I don't have a system lol. I don't franken much anymore. I usually only combine different whites together, black stamping polishes and now grays.
