Some tips when using the chrome gel: 1. Try to use a small amount at a time. Don't drown your brush in it, because it will be runny and won't turn out mirror like. 2. Try to paint in lines. It's time consuming if using it for full coverage, but you need to do small lines because it leaves a lot of streaks otherwise. 3. Avoid going over your lines repeatedly, the gel has a tendency to get clumpy and dull. 4. Paint slowly with it. 5. After you've painted the design you want, let it sit for about 30 seconds before curing it. When you let it sit, it helps to keep particles together and give mirror effect. 6. For some reason, this gel works best by using a reinfore gel and then top coat. There have been a lot of people that have the same issue. When they top coat the chrome gel, it makes it look dull and you lose the mirror effect. Add reinfore gel, cure it and then add your top coat. Hope this helps! ❤

I love your videos! This chrome paint makes me hopeful but I've been severely disappointed before... Do you have any curing tips to keep it from dulling/burning?

@@lauriedi1 I cure it for 60 seconds, but I let it sit for about 30-40 seconds before doing so. It cures well, but I've learned adding top coat immediately after curing, dulls the chrome. Now I cure it, add some kind of reinfore gel (nail strengthener, builder gel, polygel, or a 6 in 1 type of glue), cure again and then add top coat and cure for the last time.

What is “reinforce” gel
@jenniferfuller2254

@@yolyrom7233 its actually termed "reinfore". That's how I've actually seen it and that's how it was named. Nail strengthener or builder gel. Something like that.

There’s no such thing as “reinfor” or “reinfore” gel or nail polish. If you mean “reinforcement”, a product specifically under this name doesn’t appear. Google equates it to structure gel or builder gel and Amazon to strengthening nail polish base coat. I just tried it with rubber base & also hard gel ( I don’t have nail polish strengthening base) and it still dulls my chrome (powder). 😢

I think if you just over cure your base, it will give you a patchy look like that, it’s probably very hard to control and be precise as to what part will retain the chrome and what parents won’t

Aura nails is what they're called. And they're still trending. I see them all the time. I have a pot of this silver gel from Born Pretty and omg it's super shiny and thin as water lol. It's really good stuff. Born Pretty seems to always be on the leading edge of new trendy products. Been loving them the last few years!

well. I totally agree i am soooo waiting for an chrome gel to appear on the market. thanks for your video but i am really not convinced by this new product. It looks like there are bubbles on the silver lines, and also cracks. And it doesn't appear mirror-like to me. plus, i would love if a chrome miror gel was able to cover an entire nail, this one doesn't appear like it's gonna do that job. It just looks like a good silver painting, but definitely not chrom painting

The only thing is, with all of these chrome gels, they do dull when topcoated. I have this one, Madame Glam etc (about 6 different ones) and they all do it. If you don't topcoat (the no wipe ones like MG) they dull with hand washing. I went back to messy but effective chrome powder.

Watt (power) has everything to do with curing. Less power, the more curing time and less light penetration, so uneven curing plus potential for curing material to move which is undesirable.

The opening images of "chrome nails" are clearly not- they are press-ons, and using those images perpetuates false expectations of what actual chrome will look like.

So your microphone isn't working. But I actually think your microphone is working fine but when you hit the record button I think you're using the wrong input on your computer or whatever you're using to record. When you go to your sound settings when you're recording and you click sound input for your microphone you should have a few options whether you're using a wireless microphone or a desktop computer microphone If there's a couple microphone options available, you have to click the one that is clipped to your chest. It sounds like you forgot to change the input on your computer to your lavalier microphone. Reach out to somebody they'll confirm everything I'm saying

I find with my gold metal gel it very soon after few uses it develops a lump inside the jar, and colour goes off, never have this problem with the silver, except that it loses its mirrorness over time in the pot. I tried reaching out the the company to ask information if maybe temperature of room can affect the product over time. Or should you stir it frequently but didn’t get any info in return

How do you get the apex to form where you need it to when using dual forms? Every time I try to use dual forms, the apex doesn't form on top of the nail where I need it. Most of the product mives out to the end of my fingers, and the nail extensions tear as soon as I finish curing the top coat.

Love, love, love your blouse! The nails with the fade in the center are called "blush nails". Aura nails are similar but have the aurora, see-through effect usually created with a plastic strip placed on top of a thicker clear base and topped with a chrome powder.
