I've been getting a few questions about whether or not the clear coat gets shadow in it so I thought I would address that here! I was wondering the exact same thing, but surprisingly, the shadow didn't gunk up the brush at all like I thought it would! There was a very slight trace of shadow on the brush when I was done but it didn't turn the clear coat green at all!
I was surprised that it didn't come of
So many of us probably have huge eyeshadow collections, this is GENIUS!
I know! Especially with all our special shades!!!
I like my eye shadow palettes too much more than I like nail polish so I would never do this. Nor would I, like I have seen some TH-camr do, destroy my palettes to make pigments for slime.... which just goes to show that you can always take bright shiny colors and mix them into a muddy gray or brown. 🙄 I have enough nail polish to not do this. I do make my own nail polish colors by mixing half bottles together, I make a lot of mauve and lilac that way. Lilac is my best nail color.
Use your finger to apply the shadow. Using circular motions, burnish the shadow onto your nails. I feel like the warmth from your skin helps to melt the eye shadow onto the nail better.
I’m definitely going to try it this way!!!
Try to press the eyeshadow onto not fully dry nail polish with a finger. Then wait a few minutes before going over with the topcoat. I get beautiful result that way..😁👍
My problem is I have a ton of eyeshadow palettes AND a ton of nail polish AND I am now addicted to wearing press on nails instead of painting them 😂
I’m the same except lately I’m addicted to nail polish strips. 😆😩
Are you me? 🤣😅 I’m the exact same. HUGE polish collection but have recently become hooked on press ons - they blow my MIND. 🤯 fake nails really have come a long way since my middle school fake nail days.
Same!!
This is a really good way to use up pressed glitters! I've seen a few gals on Instagram using the glitters on their nails as part of their project pans or pan that palette. Such a good idea to get the most out of our makeup 🙌
Fantastic idea. I have a bunch of pressed glitter pans that I depotted and “quarantined”.
OMG JENNNN 🤩🥰 thank you for the shoutout and I love that you tried this. I think it was streaky because you used a shadow with a transparent base - ones with a deeper base will not be streaky at all!!! AHHH also can’t get over the fact you just called me your friend 🥺🥺🥰🥰❤️❤️
Ah that makes sense! Pastels were probably not the best first choice, LOL. And thank YOU for the inspiration, such amazing idea!!
@@JenPhelps I think SG Tiara would look amazing too. Okay but now we need to try electric unicorn.
Subscribing! ❤
@@PattiInNYC thank you! 🥺🥰❤️
Rupy!!!!! 🤗💕
I've been using eyeshadow as nail polish for months since I saw Rebecca Morgan here on TH-cam showing this trick. I honestly can't use just nail polish, seems something is missing 😅I even use glitter that are not safe for the eyes.
This is a great way to use up those non-eye safe pressed glitters, too!
Finally a use for old eye shadow. What a fun idea.
YES! I have so much old stuff this is perfect.
I used to be obsessed with nail polish and looked up how to make your own nail polish years ago. I had seen videos where you can crush the shadow and then pour into a bottle of clear polish or base. You can also use loose pigments. A fun project to do with kids!
same! I loved doing my nails with all kinds of designs and techniques I saw on YT. then i had a baby and don't have time for all that now lol.
Omg as a nail polish junkie And eyeshadow palette junkie I’m so excited by this!!!
I'm the same way!!
Imagine how well Juvia's Place place would work for this. Thanks for sharing this.
Meesha M Oh I have some Juvia’s place palettes. What a great suggestion!
The Colourpop Kathleen Lights loose pigments from way back marketed they could be used for nails, but I never tried it. Wishing I hadn’t decluttered those now-they would be perfect for this technique!
So we’re all gonna be matching our eyeshadow to our nails now! Haha! I’m going to try with some loose pigments and loose glitters next!
Wow! I'm surprised! Would you mind doing an update on this in one of your upcoming videos?
If you do gel polish this is even better bc gel typically leaves a sticky inhibition layer. It looks incredible with multichromes!
I got this one powder and it's weird you buff it in and it turns to chrome almost a glass look. It's really cool. Excited to watch this!
LOVE THIS!! I have a multichrome eyeshadow from an indie brand that's too dark to wear on my eyes, and I can't wait to try it this way!! I was so disappointed I couldn't wear it, and it was expensive...$15.00 for a 10mm pan. So happy I can get some use out of it!
I’m so intrigued by this. I’m so messy with nail polish this looks like an easier cleanup. Love your content🧡
That’s what I was thinking too. I might actually wear nail polish if I can use a method that makes it look less amateurish.
This makes complete sense since nail polish colors are ultimately made out of color pigments…the same for shadows
WOW! I’m absolutely trying it. I’m thinking about doing a sort of tie dye look with multiple colors. Thank you Jen! 🌸
I saw rebecca's Morgan do this a couple weeks ago fo this, I was gobsmacked 🙈🤣
Yes, I learned about this from Rebecca Morgan too!
To me this is so great! I go through phases of buying polish and then not wearing it, ending up passing unused polishes on to friends - so this would save me a lot of money. Thanks for sharing this!
What can’t SG eye shadows do? 🙂 I love this idea. Thank you.
I know right?! Haha!
This is so cool! I recently mixed a ground-up glitter eyeshadow into a base coat and made a very cool polish, but that involved permanently destroying that shade (OK in this case - too much glitter fallout). I love that you can do this with shadows you actually like using without sacrificing them!
That's what I love about it too! I had heard of mixing your own with eyeshadow, but yeah...you have to be willing to let that shadow go! :)
My mom used to use Indian earth powder for lips cheeks eyes on her nails and top with clear coat ( 1970’s) Indian earth is still sold today on Amazon
OMG! This brings back some memories! A friend of mine wore that all the time.
Don't get hung up on the applicator.... you can use anything to apply the powder...your finger, a makeup brush, q-tip, etc. If it looks to sheer or patchy...you can add another layer of polish and powder. You can also mix the shadow in with clear polish and paint it on.
Great tip!!!
I love the idea of matching my fingers PERFECTLY to my eye look!!!!! 😍😍😍
This is so awesome! I will use colors on my nails that I might not like on my eyes. Plus I can use those glitter shades 😎✨
I tried this and it worked. I was so excited, BUT it only lasted for a day before chipping. When it chipped, it kind of peeled away reminiscent of the Tinker Bell/Barbie peel away nail polish as a kid.
This is really cool!!! I also am curious about how long it will last... if/when it will chip. If you want to do a second video later with what you've learned after experimenting more and talk about wear time and how they do wear down that would be awesome!!!
I think it largely will depend on what topcoat you use. I actually went back and added a second topcoat just to be sure.
Wow I didn't know you can use eyeshadow as nail polish! I need to try that.
So neat! Curious how long it lasts on nails, please update us
What a cool idea!! I am going to try this with some pigments I never use and I bet they'll look gorgeous. Thanks for sharing. 🥰
You can do a really quick ombré nail with loose glitter or metallic pigments too. Start by painting the nail with the polish color of choice then apply a little pile of loose pigment to the skin at the base of the nail, while polish is still wet, blow it off gently and the pigment will catch in a higher concentration at the base of the nail and less at the tip creating an easy ombré. Let dry, apply a top coat and wash hands when done to clean the excess pigment off the skin. It’s kinda messy but a great way to use old eyeshadow pigments. Makes it look like you put in a lot more effort than you really did too lol
I wonder how flower beauty jungle palette would work?
So cool!! I’ll definitely be trying this!!
Can you update us in the description or something about how long the nails lasted?
Still going strong and I'm on day 3 now! :) I did add a second topcoat just to make sure.
@RupyMinhas is one of my favourite content creators ❤️Great video!
Awww ILY 🥺🥺🥰🥰🥰
I wonder if this could be a way to use some of the pressed glitters I never use. I'm gonna try it!!
Can't wait to do this with duo chrome shades....
You can use loose eyeshadow and a brush or your finger. Kathleenlights did this when she launch them with Colourpop.
Hello, what a surprising thing ! i love the idea, and i have a lot of eyeshadow palettes i love and it's great because it make some nail poiishes for free ! Thank you so much 😊
Mind blown. Can't wait to try this!!!!
Well that is the coolest thing! Gonna try this for sure!
I’m going to have to try this!!
I mean it's the same concept that they use when they do chrome nails and dip nails is essentially the same The only difference here is you're painting the powder onto your nails instead of dipping
I don't get my nails done professionally so I didn't even know about that, lol.
Like your hair style today
This is amazing, what a cool look the eye shadows give to the nails. This is a great way to use old eye shadows that you cant use on your eyes but love the colors of to get a nice look.
Love this idea! Thanks for sharing this with us! I am obsessed with nail polishes so I will definitely try this out!
I love @RupyMinhas she is so amazing!! Loved this video so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
LOVE YOU TOO!
Oh my! My 10 year old and I are gonna have so much fun with this. Thanks, Jen! ❤️❤️
Hey that's so cool
@RupyMinhas is an amazing person, creator and friend 💕 So glad you ladies know each other and you gave her a shout-out Jen !! 💖💯
🥰🥰🥰💗💗💗
It’s nothing to do with any of the things you mentioned. You need to use a nail glue….the type used to apply metallic foils to nails. It creates a tackiness for the eyeshadow to stick amazingly to. Just applying eyeshadow to dry unsticky nails, will give unreliable results. I use makartt nail foil glue and eyeshadow glides on and looks rich and intense with one stroke….regardless of the quality of the shadow. Problem solved.
The idea is funny, but omg you need to do three layers. I am already too lazy to put one layer on my nails, so it’s a no for me 🤣😂
Interesting 🤔
I saw Kathleen Lights demo this technique with Colourpop loose glitters a few years ago and they are so good. The longevity would depend on how good the clear coat is. Some do chip easier then others.
I’m trying
Great idea!
Jen, I am shook, perhaps for the first time since that became a word! As soon as you started with the Sydney Grace I thought of my Too Faced 20th Anniversary palette; I know what I'm doing today!
Have fun!! It gets addicting, haha! I want to try SO many colors!
That is super fun. I have actually seen this tip before from Kelli Marissa here on YT. She used the BH Carli Bybel palette. But I'm sure a lot of people have inspired this experiment. I will have to try it!
Oh wow so fun! 💕🍃🌿💕🍃🌿 I experimented with this years ago, like mixing and matching various make up products in all kinds of ways. My biggest challenge is just maintaining ANY manicure of any kind, I use my hands so much I just stopped lol!! But maybe I’ll try again!
Brilliant! I have so many palettes/single & loose shadows that I wouldn't wear now that would work great for this. I don't do my nails often, but this inspires me to give it a try.
Oooooo imagine this with multichromes!
OMG yes!! Those would be stunning!
I wonder if this works with pressed glitters...🤔I don’t much like some of the more crumbly ones on my eyes🤷🏻♀️but I looove glitter on my nails.☺️
I saw a brand on Instagram and their shades looked phenomenal,can you try those please? The brand is adept cosmetics
The website looks great, especially the build your own palette, but every single shade is sold out. !
@@JenPhelps 😞😞😞 anyways,thank you so much for listening.love you from Bangladesh 😘
I’ve seen it before but never tried it because to be honest I love buying nail polish 🙈 but I have been wondering about longevity too, so I hope you update us on that!
I have been wanting to try this for a while, especially with my multi chromes or duo Chromes, is there anything else you learned along the way that you can share your experience just asking because I know the video is older, so you might learn new techniques with it beyond what you showed. Thank you so much Jen I always appreciate all of your content.
This is absolutely gorgeous.. I would definitely try this
You remind me of Stephanie Marie that I am subscribed to by way of looks, sound and mannerisms. Are you related? Thanks for this tip can't wait to match my eyes and nails AND use up glitter eyeshadow with fallout that bugs me!
I’ve painted my nails this way but with pressed glitters and I don’t know how I didn’t think of doing it with normal eyeshadow?? I just tried it with my Maybelline Knock Out highlighter and WOW. Not only did it take me like two seconds to do my nails, they look great! I did one hand and didn’t wait for it to dry before I went in with the powder but be sure to tap gently so you don’t disturb it. I found if I waited too long, the powder wouldn’t stick as well. A good base coat also makes a difference too! I also used my fingers to apply the powder.
I'd try this but I don't need to; honestly I have an embarrassingly large nail polish collection 😆😅😂 I may anyway though! Great idea 💡 👍
Kathleen lights showed this in her jan 28, 2019 video, but that was with loose pigments. I have been doing this since then. But I didn't even think of using my palettes.
What! Yes!! Immediately clicked in. I have so much beautiful eyeshadow! 🤓 show me the way!
I have some CT eyeshadows I don’t like and regret buying. Didn’t throw away due to $$. So glad I can now use them!!
Thanks so much! This sounds great. I definitely want to try this!!!
I see this as a perfect fun thing to do with a young girl/child/preteen! If I am not senile by then I will do this with a granddaughter assuming I don’t end up with all boys😍😂
Oh I can’t wait to try this as a pink and white French ombré!!! Thank you!
Wow....I learn something new everyday!! Thanks for sharing:)
Wow I bet you could do this with a gel top coat and cure with a LED light. For a super duper long staying nail polish with all colors of the rainbow. Definitely gonna give it a try.
Ive seen this hack in the past, i had no idea it looked so stunning! Thank you! Going to try this when i get home 😊
I can't wait to try this! Brilliant!
Bare minerals used to sell loose shadow for nails. Claiming the minerals helped the nails etc.
I really wanted to see what the matt eyeshadow looked like with the top coat applied, I suppose it's very simple for me to do it.
This is bonkers, crazy and genius!
Who ever thought of doing this originally is amazing!
I've got shadows I don't use coming out of my ears, so finding a really usable use for them is literally *blowing my mind* 🤯🤯.
Thank you for sharing this weird but wonderful tip with us, 💗💗
Isn't it so amazing?! I love it! I actually tried the matte shades first before the shimmers and I didn't want to seal them in with a clear coat and make them more difficult to remove before I applied the shimmers for the video (I was in a bit of a time crunch). :)
@@JenPhelps 😂😂😂 ..... time crunches are a nightmare! xxx
I wonder if putting a loose powder eyeshadow directly inside the clear nail polish would work too...
Omg!!! 🤯 mind blown!!! This is awesome! I absolutely love your down to earth channel!
Huh, who KNEW?!?! I think this is freakin genius!!!
I wonder if putting a white base could improve the look of more sheer shadows and/or mattes? 🤔
So creative!!! I would have never thought of this either. Definitely going to try this.
Another youtuber Rebecca Morgan made a video about this a while ago too.
My eyehadow doesnt stick :( idk why!! Using two faced sweet peach palette
My God! This is a God sent idea! I’m definitely going to try. Thanks a lot!
Wow. What a great way to spend a saturday evening. Thank you!
Love this! Redo your color!
Great idea going to try it
Does this work with normal nail polish or only the gel type ?
Use duochrome or multichrome shades on your nails next!!
Thank you so much for this! Can't wait to try! :D
Works the best with gel polish and eyeshadows.
Thanks Jen! I am going to try it next week . 💅🏻
