Glitter

[UKRed]

I have a pot of glitter from an arts and craft store, can you use this type of glitter on nails or should I stick to my proper 'Nail Art' glitter?

Never thought of that, I got some glitters in my nail art kit from Nail creation and my sister seems to be allergic to them... Is there any 'sensitive' ones or is that just me being silly?

some glitters will work, some will bleed colour on contact with monomer.
generally speaking you can use most glitters with gel though.
it is always best to buy ones specifically for nails for predictable results, but if you do decide to experiment, always test it on a nail tip before you try it on a client.

I was meaning for natural nails or on top of fiberglass tips :o

I'm not trained in acrylic or gel yet... but I am assuming it could still run/take the colour out of the glitter when in contact with top coat or enamel
