Caviar beads

[LisaV]

Hi all, I was playing about with caviar beads... Gosh they are fiddly little things! Anyway, I did a design (nothing complex as was just getting a feel for it!) attached. I applied them to a wet top coat of gellux and cured, then I carefully top coated over them and cured again. They were great for a day but I noticed the beads were falling out just leaving a bubble of top coat! Very strange!

Has anyone got any advice on how to make them last longer???

Try using a soak off gel like Brisa Lite Sculpting gel. It will be a bit thicker but should hold well. I use it for my crystals.

Nail adhesive works!
Do base and colour coat then caviar then nail adhesive
Once dry topcoat

But beware if using caviar then colour will fade with adhesive eg. Silver will go matte,
I've used ciate, the priciest, and it went dull but they stayed on a week!
