    In case you don’t have matte top coat you can use regular top coat and buff the shine off, wipe, and do whatever design you’re doing. Then you cure, and apply the chrome powder and dust off the excess and it shouldn’t stick to the rest of the nail because chrome tends to stick to anything that’s shiny. After that you apply top coat.

      Said so perfectly, because this is my go to also!! I've been a nail tech for 5 years & this method has worked for me every single time 🥲 ALSO, double top coat! Always, with or without chrome I just feel that 2 layers of top coat is key in flawless gel that lasts 😙

    If I use chrome powder, I do the no wipe matte top coat and then I just wipe it with alcohol. Then I go in and do whatever design for the chrome powder, like normal and it looks perfect. I used to apply base/foundation gel on the chrome powder before topcoat, but now I use Reinforce Gel or strengthener. But wiping the no wipe matte, with alcohol, has always worked just fine and there's not much, if any fallout. A very small amount of chrome powder goes a long way. That's they way I've been doing it for over a year now.

      Don't know if you've tried it or not, but when I use no wipe matte before chrome powder, I wipe the nail with rubbing alcohol. I'll wipe the matte with the alcohol and then go in with my glossy topcoat for chrome application, and I get really good results everytime. If you haven't tried it, maybe it'll work for you. It also leaves very little, if any, fallout. Hope it helps.

      I seal the chrome with primer so that it doesn't chip. A lot time if you just seal it with a top coat the chrome starts to fade out. Primer just helps stop that so your chrome can last.

      Exactly how @lanoisette stated. If you use chrome-use ones that you have to wipe. Because you are wiping the inhibition layer off there isn't a sticky layer for the chrome to stick onto making the chrome stick on better to the design. 😊

    • @nailfrens
      @nailfrens  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You might have to do a light buff before the design. I know it’s an extra step but not all matte top coat are good. Even if you use a matte or non-wipe matte it will cause chrome to stick to your base color. So far the best matte top coat that leaves the least chrome fall out in my opinion is Ugly Duckling Matte. Or you could use a regular non wipe top coat and just buff it and do your design works just the same. 😊

    • @nailfrens
      @nailfrens  ปีที่แล้ว

      If your top coat is pulling away from the chrome powder it might be that something is not working together. If you do prime before topcoat make sure you don't drench it with primer. Too much primer will make your top coat pull away as well. But if you are not then I'm thinking its something with the chrome that is having a chemical reaction with your top coat. Might want to try out a different top coat to see if it does the same. Hope this helps. 😊😊

    So I’ve been having issues after applying the chrome and dusting off the excess, I then cure the chrome under the light. After curing it looks beautiful. BUT when I apply the top glossy coat the chrome particles get on the non chrome area and creates this shimmer effect :( how can I fix this???

    • @nailfrens
      @nailfrens  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Have you tried putting base coat first before top coat? I've notice that if you go straight into top coat with chrome it will shimmer.

    • @jennifertempest397
      @jennifertempest397 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I had the same problem, when I first started using it. I used to use a base coat or foundation gel on top of the chrome, and then topcoat the whole nail. It definitely works. Now though, I use reinforcement gel or strengthener. Builder gel is pretty much the same thing as those, so it works just as well. After using those on the chrome, I top coat the nail like normal and cure. Hope it helps.
      Edit: I also meant to add, after you apply your chrome powder, take a brush and dust all of the excess off. Move the brush in a circular direction, so that any loose particles will rub onto any blank spots in the nail, and make sure there's nothing left behind, before you use your builder gel or base coat. Chrome is beautiful but finicky, so 1 little dust or powder particle, could ruin your design.

      Using primer on top of the chrome (not on the entire nail) will help it last longer without the chrome chipping off. 😊😊 Chrome tend to chip off really easily once the top coat is apply but to prevent that using just a little bit of primer makes it last just a little bit longer. 😊

      Nail primer should be compatible with gels or specially made for gels. I use the Ugly Duckling primer and never had issues with it. I've also used Young nail primer and they are not good for gels at all-I had issue with their primer. The ones I recommend is Ugly Duckling (professional only brand) or Apres. You can also look into Korean brands like Diami or Izemi as well.

      If your chrome is coming off after you cured and not sticking on then you may have over cured the gel. If it is chipping after you have seal the chrome then I recommend using the tiniest amount of primer on top of your chrome. This helps prevent the chrome from not chipping after you top coat the chrome.

      The black gel that I use is a NON-Wipe black which works really great for chrome, skipping the need to top coat the black. So all you have to do is put on the blk gel, cure 10-15 sec chrome then top coat. But I like to put a bit of primer on the chrome before I top to prevent chrome from chipping. 😉

      ​@pinkpineapplenails 10-15 sec for black seems like it'd still be undercured. :/ especially as it's black but also thicker being what seeks to be more gel paint like as well. And the thinnest regular gel polish in lighter colors requires 30sec min. For basically most brands etc. I'd be extremely worried about undercutting.:/ but love that you found a black gel paint that is non wipe! I wonder if I happen to have any gel paints that are non wipe in my arsenal. That'd be nice
