Love this video! Only certain foils need to be wiped with acetone, they have a goldish brown backing, the clear foils don’t have it only some of. The metallic foils do! Most higher quality foils don’t require a wipe! Definitely need to try the wildflowers foil gel though
Thanks for watching!! 🥰🥰🥰 I thought it was the foils with the solid color metallic ones to wipe down but I didnt know they had to have a brown film I guess the ones I tried didn't. Haha thanksss for letting me know!!!
Thank you, Shirin for suggesting the Wild Flower Foil Gel. Also, for giving us the nail tip sizes for the Iguana Hands. Do you place a tip on the Iguana then lay another tip on top to practice on for demos? It amazes me how far the nail industry has come from air brushing, stencils and free hand.
Hey luv, I just slide one nail into the red Iguana finger nails. Yes I totally agree the nail world has grown tremendously haha when I first started it was just white tips 😄
Can you please tell me why you wipe the sides of the nail before curing? I've thought you need to cap those ends but you wipe it. Is this a new technique? What did I miss, lol.
Hello, I'm honestly not sure what you can use if you don't want to invest in the foil gel. I've personally tried the foil glue and it was garbage haha. I do have a more updated foil video if you watch that I give 2 more affordable foil gels that I highly recommend. 😊
🤩 Beautiful!! Are you sure the Wildflowers site says "wipe back of foil with acetone" though? Because acetone would eat away any type of foil design, even the Wildflowers brand foil. Lol... Maybe it was supposed to say "alcohol" as in rubbing alcohol? I have to use that to wipe off a foggy-type layer on the back of most of my foils before using them. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous design!
Hey Luv thanks for watching!! The video I watched said Lauren the creator of Wildflowers herself said to use acetone and even I was like what wont that ruin it haha. But she was saying to only do it to foils that have a brown film on the back. Which none of my foils do but I forgot to explain that part in my video!! Haha but eventually Ill make another foil video 😁❤
With the Wild flowers top coat it’s pretty thick so when I apply foils I do 2 coats still or if I do matter top coat I’ll do 2 coats and it lasts. But I’m currently working on a battle of the foil gels video as I have 4 new ones I’m testing.
@@shirinmarie5236 great thank u! If you don't have a thick top coat do you think adding builder gel first is a good idea then top coat? And because foils are shiny shouldn't we had a bonder like young nails protein bond to help the top coat from chipping?
Thank you so much for this. I’ve bought a few products each time I watch a video, but have no luck. I’ll buy this and see how I do. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
I'm currently working on a new video should be up at the beginning of May. But I have new tips and foil gels!! ♥️♥️

How long would i cure in a uv light ?
Also have you ever used the apres nail foil gel?
Would i use it the same way as u are in the video?
I've tried everything to get my Fuzion Foilz gel to work. Any tips on that one?
Awww I wish Joan I have never been able to make the Fuzion foil gel work for me. I'm so sorry 😞
I figured it out! It's a 3 minute cure :-)
Can you please tell me why you wipe the sides of the nail before curing? I've thought you need to cap those ends but you wipe it. Is this a new technique? What did I miss, lol.
If you do not have foil gel polish what can you use, I’ve been searching I can’t find anything

So you use just 1 layer of top coat and your foils last for a few weeks without peeling or chipping?

Absolutely I tried using the LE Jimmy gel 1 layer of that with another top coat and it worked as well!!
I’m sooo bummed the Canada Nail supply doesn’t ship to U.S
I'm so sorry I actually thought they did. I will reach out to them and see what they can do cause they need to expand!!
Beautiful 💖 💖 💖 💖
Thankyou so much!! I have another video prefilmed using one of the snake print foils from you!! Hopefully upload that soon 😁
@@shirinmarie5236 can't wait to see it 😍 😍😍😍
Darn Canada supply doesn't ship outside of Canada
