    Great video. I was so frustrated because some of my chrome powders didn't work. I didn't even think the time could be an issue, because the other powders worked perfectly. Thank you very much for making this video

    Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺 we are still in lockdown October 2021, am trying to do my own nails at home. Got some hard chrome powders and got so many different results I thought my nail lamp was just dodgy - perhaps it’s just the curing time - thanks again!!!

    This is what I learned too. I had to cure my top coat for ten seconds to get my chrome results I wanted.

    No other video explained that it is the cure time what makes the difference. I was so upset for not getting the mirror finnish. ❤

    is there a way to make the chrome actually look like a mirror (no matter the color) that doesnt look like its an old mirror or has glitter on it? like i tried everything and iit always looks like theres glitter....

    Hi! Didn’t catch if you’re using base or top coat before the chrome

    • @caracatitafrumoasa7319
      @caracatitafrumoasa7319 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      At 2:26 she mentiones top coat, so I guess you're supposed to apply the pigment on the top coat

  • @elhamnabi1211
    @elhamnabi1211 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is amazing👍👏 What if we want to use chrome for design and rub it straight on paint gel, does it need top coat ? And what about curing time, the same as no sticky top coat?

    Do you need to apply with the gel nail polish or just the regular one is okay too ?🙏🏻

    • @feniskoura3726
      @feniskoura3726 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      i mean it can work on regular polish too but then you have to wait for it to dry completely before applying the powder

    Wow - I just got some chrome powders and couldn’t figure out why mine looked super sparkly - which is nice but not mirror.

    Hi, very interesting your video is the first time I saw someone talking about the time.. but I have another question, i had been trying with differents polish of different branch, but still isn't work for me... so if you could answer and questions I would be grateful..
    1. Your black base is of gelish?
    2. After cure your black base.. did you clean the sticky layer?
    3. After cure your top coat, did you clean the sticky layer? or you applied the pigment on the sticky layer?
    Thanx and excellent contribution..

      You get better effect with no wipe top coat,she does not wipe as far as I know,she just applied the chrome. If you top coat at the end and it has a sticky layer you wipe. You only ever wipe at the very end because that sticky layer is for all the layers to stick together.

    • @patriciagallacher6741
      @patriciagallacher6741 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If using a no wipe top coat and you are using chrome you do as in the video, experiment with curing times to get the effect you want.also if you are top coating twice with a no wipe top coat you cure the first layer 30 secs then second layer 60 secs as it has better adhesion.

    Does it matter what TYPE of light you’re using, for time differences? And how hard do you rub?

  • @babycakes1402
    @babycakes1402 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I tried the black undercoat but I just didn't like it & as it turned out, I didn't need it... I use a clear base coat & cure it but then I go over it with regular nail polish remover on a cotton ball, one swift wipe, then put on the powder & rub it in for that mirror finish, topcoat & cure then add a second coat of the powder if needed. I don't know why but something about rubbing the regular remover over the base then topcoat before applying the powder seems to make it go on better. I also dip my finger in the powder then rub it on. It makes a bit of a mess but when done it really looks great :)

      Babycakes, you are an ABSOLUTE DOLL!!!! No other method has ever worked for me to get the mirror shine, but yours!!! 😱 I did it exactly as you described, and I stared with my jaw on the ground, in total disbelief, because I have never seen this mirror shine ever before on my nails! 🫢
      I have tried countless methods, but nothing has ever worked for me except for YOUR method. I feel like all of my chrome powders are going to come to life now, thanks to you! I wish I could give you the biggest hug ever! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU….SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!! 🥰❌⭕️❌⭕️
      You need to make a video and show people your method because so many people are still suffering with the glitter look instead of the mirror look . You are just awesome! 🎉🎉🎉

    I've noticed that different types of lamps and different top coats need varied cure times. I use a flourescent UV lamp with Born Pretty no wipe top coat and cure time is 1 minute and 30 seconds for a perfect chrome finish. Anyone else have any other combo hints?

    Can we use this chrome powder on eyeshadow or it will be dangerous ?

      I don’t think so, but the opposite will definitely work, you can use eyeshadow for nail art
