Applying nail crystals

[miss_jc]

Sorry for the obvious question but what tool have you found most successful for picking up crystals and applying to the nail?!

Thanks!

I use an orange stick and dip it in water, it picks up diamantes really well but I know there is a special tool which I would be interested to know where to get

I use a dotting tool with a little bit of top coat on it - you only a tiny little smidgen from around the bottle top and voila, perfect picker upper!

Embellie Gellie is on my list to order at some point (I craft a lot too). Look it up, looks awesome!

I use a a little plastic stick with a rubber tip which is suppose to be the propper tool (not great) but my sis in law that crystals up shoes uses a wax pencil she got from eBay it's brill xx

I've seen the wax pencil but have bought the diamanté application tool on eBay, like a little plastic stick with a blob of waxy stuff on the end, it's aimed at crafters but is quite good for years I just used a wet orange stick tho :lol:xxx

A tooth pick is ace ;0)

I absolutely couldn't do it without my wax pencil, I got 2 for 99p about a year ago! I think I've sharpened one of them about 3 times... Plenty of life left in that
