Hello

What else can I decorate natural nails with, other than paints and glitter? Obviously when doing enhancements you can embed chunky glitter / crushed shells etc into the design but these wouldn't work on the natural nail I don't think. I want to be able to offer something more than just hand painted art.

Many thanks x
 
stickers, water decals, diamonds, pearls,
if you go and have a look on the nail art suppliers websites you will see lots of things that you could use hth
 
I have done these on Natural Nails:
  • Transfers
  • 3D Stickers
  • Water Decals
  • Blending
  • Rhinestones
  • Flatstones
  • Glitter
  • Foils/Tapes
HTHs xx

You can use almost everything on natural nails just set it into wet top coat and seal with another couple of layers it may not last as long as if it was in gel or acrylic but if you are looking for something to last try stickers, water decals, laserstrands, striping tape there are huge amounts of choices my natural nails are quite long and use everything on them
 
Thanks for your replies everyone. I'm going to show my ignorance here - what exactly are decals? I always thought they were nail stickers but I'm thinking I might be wrong....!!!

Hi
Decals look like stickers, but are only released from the backing paper when immersed in water.
If you google water decals it should show you a few examples

Oh ok, yes I see. I'll try googling it I think. Where does everyone get their things like decals and stickers from? Also, where can I get flat rhinestones from? I use NSI and tend to get most things from there but I'm looking for some flat stones rather than ones which are raised. Hope I make sense here!
 
You can also airbrush natural nails :green:
 
oooh yes I'd wondered about that too. Thank you!
