when i was at college we were shown to do glitter stripes by getting some top coat on a fine brush dipping it into glitter and dragging it across. I find this sometimes doesnt give a nice sharp line. Ive seen these striper pens, which i cant say ive used yet, and was wondering wether you can but glitter stripers or wether there is any tips you can give me to getting a sharper result.
 
Hi, I have some glitter stripers that i bought from a local supplier, They have a long brush in the bottle and come out quite well, cant just wipe them off if you make a mistake though. Think NSI sell them, not sure about creative? if your going to excell im sure there will be some there x

I have these too, and don't seem to have any major probs with them although it does take a bit of practice to get it right.
 
The glitter stripers are really easy to use, :cool: I really like them and so do my clients.
 
I've got a few glitter stripers and use them loads - mine are from Star Nail/Spanges brought from Sally's.

No cleaning brushes
 
is there anywhere else that sells them other than NSI, dont order anything off them .

Capital sell them if you have a branch near you, and I am sure Nail Order sell them too. If you're going to ExCel, you will be able to get some there also. I have a couple of non-glitter ones on Geek Bay - pm if you're interested.
 
Hi,

If i want to do glitter stripes this is what i do.
I use whatever colour the client wants the stripes to be, and paint them on in whatever way the want. Then i have the clear polish from creative which has silver glitter inside, (or the northern lights silver/gold), and using a small brush i simply go over the colour with the clear glittery polish. This works for me!
HTH.

I love my glitter stripers but, be careful you dont end up with one like I bought.
One on the left (Nail Creations)I got from my local Capital... it has no glitz at all. The one on the right, (Flexibrush) I bought from a show and just look at the sparkle... You really can see the diff on the nail too.
They are fun and easy to use and I wouldnt be without mine, make sure you go for a gold and a silver... you'll use both equally as much. Hth.

I have the same flexbrush ones and they're great really intense colours. wait until Excel as I know you'll find loads there.
 
Hi,

I bought my set from Alan Roy - you get black, white, red, blue glitter, sliver glitter and gold glitter for £15.25 + VAT.

I would definitely recommend these stipers.

Does Alan roy have a website?
