Ist full foil nail mani

Ive had foils for some months now but everytime I tried to do a full mani it never looked good. I tried many times and finally last week that I got a better foil glue I am actually semi proud of my attempt enough to show pictures of it. I applied a thin layer of The Best Glue Ever on my nails let it dry and used a holographic star foil. It came out a little sloppy and of course the top coat messed it up a little too but its still ok. I love the blingyness of it.





Have you tried foils? Any tips on how to apply them better? What top coat do you use over your foils?

    So cool! I love nail foils. I've had good luck with a non-fast drying top. I also use a plastic card (like an old gift card/ID card) to smooth them. I remove them by peeling it off from the bottom of the nail up. That seems to make a difference.

    Wow, so shiny and blingy! I've never tried foils, just the SH strips, which aren't the same thing at all.
