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!
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 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.
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.
@@apolishedtouchnailstudio I'm not sure how to get the info to you, it keeps getting deleted 😭 maybe because it's info outside of Young Nails. Sorry I tried, but you can go to her Instagram page and reach out to her through messaging and she will respond to you with the info
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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!
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.
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. ua-cam.com/video/kMHLctMgn5U/v-deo.html&feature=shares
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 :)
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).
Hi m from India I feel fortunate to see ur vdo mm learning nail art but what ever m learning it's like m weasting money as my teacher is not teaching as good as u teach I have paid my hard earned money but m feeling cheated now I don't have much to buy the stuff to practice.can u send me ur products but I can't pay.

@@youngnailsinc I have seen ur ur products they are too costly I can't afford them n I don't need free as well but m sure ur vdo will help me to learn better way hope will get more n more such vdos in future.
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)
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.
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.
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. ua-cam.com/video/8VVsHEXDhTU/v-deo.html 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. ua-cam.com/video/dxl26RTLidE/v-deo.html
This is the BEST channel for nails on UA-cam everyone explains every detail perfectly you are all true masters of the craft. Thank you

I know right? That shit was like crack.
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!!
I’ve been looking for a palette knife. May I ask where you got yours?

"Canadian Blue" (with the Aurora Borealis Green) is beeeeutiful !!!!!! =)
So Ms. Huneke do we have a tutorial on your nails?
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?

This blue and green looks like Vincent van Gogh's "Starry Night"!
Greatbinformation
There's no wrong way to glitter, its all about how you want the finish to look.
Thanks!
The color Karen is wearing is beautiful, what color purple is that?
It is ManiQ Bromance.
Can use the regular base coat or builder gel for the glitters.
Answered a lot of my issues😂

Hey YN, do you have a video on applying chromes? Mine chips
ua-cam.com/video/_V73_lPJkOo/v-deo.html
Can you mix a top coat and glitter thin to get more of your background color? Like for an ombre?
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.
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?
It's fortune..I just. Ordered 1
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!
When adding glitter to speed clear, does it change how fast the speed clear sets?
yes i would assume so with any acrylic. glitter definately thickens acrylic up
Yes, it will set a little slower when you add glitter to your powders.
Could you please do a video comparing glitter press vs sugaring?
It's like we read your mind!😊🙌

@YoungNailsInc
Ok great thanks for that video, I'll be doing that from now on.
Can you add a gel polish to the gel to add color if you don’t want glitter
You would just use your gel polish on the nail instead of adding glitter
Do you put a gel top coat on top of a sugar glitter nail??
No you do not
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?
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 :)
@@a.therese7886 thank you so much!
We like to have a separate top coat for anything glitter.
@@youngnailsinc yes I agree. I learned this over the years haha
😮😊
Is there a problem with curing the gel when there is that much glitter in it?
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.

Hi What nail file are you using?
During the glitter press part? If so, it's our 180 file/buffer combo: www.youngnails.com/products/180-180-pink-combo-file
That last one shoulda been common sense lol
What are the advantages of PROTIEN BOND
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.
what glitter are you pressing with not thee blue the other
Looks like fortune to me
@@candie1230 yeah it is I already got it ordered...I always thought fortune was just gold not HOLO GOLD
It is Fortune: www.youngnails.com/products/1-4-oz-fortune
I rather have more green than blue glitter 😃 in that gel
Did you see how much gel she scooped out just for her demo?
تبارك لله عليك بتوفيق 💞مزيد من تألق ان شاءالله نتمنى تزورني تبتي تعلقي فضلا وليس امرا وشكرا 🌺♥️♥️📌🔔😍🤩👍🏻

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. ua-cam.com/video/8VVsHEXDhTU/v-deo.html
