  • CHROME nails with a no wipe top coat! • How to CHROME NAILS! n...
    Yay my first nail video! Please bare with me while I figure all this out.
    This is done with just gel polish base coat, chrome pigment and gel polish top coat. I was playing around and found using just a base gel polish worked and wanted to share with you guys! After wiping the gel base polish with alcohol it has a rubbery texture for the pigment to stick to. opinion not fact Every product is different.
    It is best to use a NO WIPE top coat and some kind of applicator but I didn't have either on hand...so whatcha gonna do ;P
    I do prefer using a color as a base as well. . :)
    Thanks for watching!

    It looked granulated because you didn't buff it into the nail enough. Once you put it on the nail you have to rub for several seconds. The more you rub the more reflective it becomes. I love the idea of doing it over clear!

    You should either use a eye shadow applicator or silicon utensil to apply the pigment. never your finger because the oils would reduce the shine.

      +fighting irish in this video I used a gel base coat. Cured. Then wiped with alcohol. BUT it doesn't give you the best chrome mirror look. It's best to use a no wipe gel top coat then put the chrome powder over that...then no wipe gel top coat again.

    thank you for this video and to all others for their comments. I had mine done at a nail shop and they look terrible and to boot, i had her to paint my base as black. you can still see the black on the side bed... :( it just looks like silver polish. i am going to try this myself but buy the no wipe top coat (btw what is the best one to use without spending too much??). it also helps to know that you have to really buff it and she did not do that, so that could have made a difference. also does anyone have any experience with the top coat cracking?
