@@DaWandaBarton can you do a video doing color glow... With glitter, lol... I saw glow powder on Amazon. I want to do Christmas colors glow in the dark so it looks like Christmas lights on my fingers but I'm not sure about the ratios. I've looked at other videos and they just dump stuff in and that seems like a waste
DaWanda, I have seen so many videos on UA-cam and one thing I like about yours is that you are descriptive about why your pressing your pigment so much, I also get so annoyed when the pigment chunks get in the way!!! I like how you describe measurement and preventing cross contamination with mixes. very helpful!
Aww thank you, I can't and don't want those chunks, either. some viewers that watched this video, feels this methods is too much work, but that's ok. My way is not for everyone. At least some viewers can understand, why. If you don't measure, it can become a mishap, and I don't want that, lol. I'm glad you did enjoy, tfw & take care
I am 1 minute into the video and had to stop and comment. THANK YOU for asking others to chime in if they had a better or different idea on how to do this. I have never seen another YT crafter say that. I see SO many others jump down someones throat if they offer a comment or " I did it this way " stuff. So , THANKS
You made my day, I’m not perfect. I love a new way, and try to explain mine the best way, I know how. If it doesn’t work, I can admit that to you and myself, Tfw & take care.
Aww, cheeks are filled with joy, thanks for your kind words. I'm glad you did enjoy the vid. I know sometimes, I can be all over the place with explaining throughly, lol. I will put it on my videos to do list. Tfw & take care

Crystal you look like the lady who use to come on TV going to different nail salons. Is this you? Wonder what had happened to the show, loved watching it.
You will, it took months before I got the hang of acrylics. I know I can edit out some of the things I say. But hey you never know, I keep being thorough, I say to myself, “it will benefit somebody.” Tfw & take care
I’ve only seen people put it in container and shake it but it’s cool to watch it this way to see it better while it mixes up ✨💕 I just subscribed to your channel 👍
Your so awesome...Goldie locks hahahh how funny but love it, makes the color unique followed by the rest of the other tones A+. Now you given me much more ideas for my work ☺️
That was so well done & you showed us so well have to make these powders! I’m sure going to do it. I guess you was using acrylic for you’re a liquid, to make the powder moist’ looking so forward to seeing more of your videos! God bless you
I'm a bit confused, if your making the glitter home made, then how come your using that already made up glitter, did you make that as well? If so i'd like to see exactly how you made that type of glitter, this would be very much appreciated, thanks.
No ma’am this video is showing how to take ready made raw glitters to create different color glitter acrylic mixes; with measurements to make them applicable to build a nail enhancement without problems. Tfw
The colours are quite beautiful, have you tried putting the powder in a bigger pot with a sealable lid? It’s so much easier for you, if you mix with a wooden cuticle stick or an old no longer used baby first spoon size🥄it saves the wiping up & clearing up of powder on a tray, it truly does mix very good in the larger pot, then all you need is ur labels on the side of the pots so customers can not only see what they are getting but will remember their favourite colours by name, I mix mine as they are ordered to get my customers excited, it’s nice for clients to have input into my powders, I name some colours after my customers names, I have one awesome navy blue powder mixed with gold moons & silver sequinned stars omg with light blue and dark glitter fluffed up with clear acrylic, it’s the most amazing look so I called this one by my name Barbie/blue-x1, glitter wasn’t around in my days of training 23yrs ago it was basic nails but today? How amazing to see the nail industry boom so hard for glitter and nail art? Keep up the good work👍🏾☺️☺️☺️
😊 I didn’t show how I mixed that one. sorry, I actually made that glitter with a calculation of many different shapes and colors of pinks, silvers, and iridescent glitters. I normally use a formula of main color is 100% and any other goes down each color 50%, 40%, 30%. Try not to use more then 3 colors together. I hope this help. Tfw & take care.
I know, I'm really not a brown or green fan, when it comes down to nail design, but if it's clothing; I'm all for those colors. I tell you, a lot of viewers are digging that brown, lol. Tfw
Dawanda... U have a good thing. Take it 2 anothr levrl & create ir own label & sell ur products U like. I mix fine white glitter & acrylic powder. Creates a strong natural looking nail. Versatility w/ ur method. Package it & make $$$.

Question: Can I use a craft store glitter for doing nails or do I need a special material of glitter that works best? I don't want to spend money only to find out it's not what I need. After reading some of the comments I started looking at other videos and found the way you're doing it is far superior than the other videos by mixing it on the glass. No clumps at all.

IMO Love your video and learned a great deal. I'm just doing research before giving it a try and your video is most informative.
Yes, ma’am you can recollections is a great glitter from hobby lobby or micheals, and get that coupons off there app for discounts . Thank you for your honest and supportive feedback, Tfw & take care.
DaWanda Barton I tried it today. I really liked it. You have to tilt it back and forth to make sure it all mixes. Definitely faster, and easier for me the lazy girl!
natural acrylic I use always for mixing glitter or pigment together. I never use clear if I want a true color coverage it would only dilute the color. I only use white acrylic if I need a lighter color of the same color pigment. I use clear to make a color sheer/see through it or for a only glitter no pigment mix. hope this help, Tfw & take care.
I always put a splodge on the top of each lid to show the colours 😍 . I always use natural too for pigment I agree it looks a lot better . Good was of mixing the pigment too I will do it next time
Glitter is more given then pigment. You can do more or less with glitter ratio, because of its sparsity the acrylic or Gel can not absorb it. If you want to see more glitter add, if you want to see less glitter add less. Glitter does not weaken the acrylic or Gel application. So therefore you can mix and shake with acrylic, only, but not if you adding pigments with the acrylics and glitter; it has to be mix to crush all the bits of pigments evenly throughout the acrylic or Gel, first. Trust, you will see specks of pigments in your application. Then you would add your glitter, then shake. Now, you can't over add pigments you must have a ratio cause acrylics and Gel absorbs pigments it wouldn't apply correctly. This was a month full, I hope it was helpful. Tfw
Yes, it do work., I tried, I have a small one. but it’s not wide enough, and I hate exchanging and cleaning colors, it stains, and the mix get caught in the grooves to much for me. Tfw
Hi, you can mix it with any acrylic, I use the clear acrylic when I want to achieve a clear look with the glitter, and I use a colored acrylic to darken the background of the glitter mix. Example: I use a pink colored acrylic for the background color and then add a blue, yellow, green glitter. If I want to see just the glitter with no background color, I will use clear acrylic then add whatever color glitter i want for the mix. Tfw & take care
Really cool tfs! It's easier to do than I thought. Can you share the links to where you buy your pigments and glitter? Also could you please do a tutorial on how to apply the clear and pigmented glitter in a mani?
+Myishia simmons yes, once you get a ratio it's real easy. The pigments were shany, which was a loose mineral eyeshadow. I bought those onwww.amazon.com/SHANY-Cosmetics-Mineral-Eyeshadow-Favorite/dp/B002RGMI6Y?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00. Also try aliexpress. Tfw
I can see how that would be easier, but I wouldn't get the results I'm looking for. The hard work will pay off. Mixing or shaking pigments thats made for makeup in a jar will not mix well. You will have chunks of pigments that will be lingering around in your mix and will show up after application. I'm not trying to change the mixing concept, just wanting a smoother texture. I hope my explanation set well with you. I appreciate your comment. Tfw
I was thinking the same thing. I use a much bigger jar than I need and it works perfectly ance I never have clumps just smooth mix. Why make more work for yourself than you have to ?
Yes, with just glitter only you can do that. if I’m using pigments, I like it be free of specks, shaking it just doesn’t cut it for me. Tfw & take care
I use natural acrylic instead of clear acrylic for a true color opacity, and clear acrylic for less opacity to see through a color. hopes this helps, Tfw & take care
love how you mix your acrylic and glitters. I'm new set all of this and you simplified everything
I'm glad it was easy to follow, I try. Tfw
Love this! I was taught at school to just put it in a jar and shake it. but this looks like it mixes it so much better. thank you
Yes it does, no specks of pigments left behind. I'm glad you did enjoyed, tfw
Makes sense 🤔 somebody else laughed that she didn’t mix in a jar

I've seen people use an herb grinder to mix in the pigment. It looks like it works really well. I ordered one on eBay to try.
That too, seem like a good idea, if you don’t want to smash. I wouldn’t mind trying that, too. Thanks for the info, let me know if it works. Tfw

How many full sets would you get from one of those little pots?
Probably about five, depending how opaque they want them. A small amount goes a long way. Tfw

Amanda Nuila I agree

Hi quick question... could you mix the glitter with regular acrylic or does it have to be clear?

I can see how that would be easier, but I wouldn't get the results I'm looking for. The hard work will pay off. Mixing or shaking pigments thats made for makeup in a jar will not mix well.

LisaC or a plastic sandwich bag...should mix it up pretty evenly
I was thinking the same thing. I use a much bigger jar than I need and it works perfectly ance I never have clumps just smooth mix. Why make more work for yourself than you have to ?
Wouldn't putting it in a little plastic bad, and shaking it be a lot simpler than that big bowl? Or just put it in the jar and gently shaking it?
Yes, with just glitter only you can do that. if I’m using pigments, I like it be free of specks, shaking it just doesn’t cut it for me. Tfw & take care
love it!! tfs
