Hi, geeks.

I'm looking to buy some Swarovski Crystals as my rhinestones are rather dull and quite bulky... But I don't know what size to get. Has anyone got pictures of different sizes on the nails?

Sorry to be a pain but I'm looking to buy in bulk and trial/error isn't really something I can afford to do right now!

Xx
 
By the way, I've tried a search but my phone is playing up - more than happy to read other threads if someone could link me to a few? :) xx
 
Hi,

I find the best ones are 1.8mm, they are the smallest I can find, and they are small but it looks so much nicer when on the nail and not bulky!:)

Hope that helps:):biggrin:
 
I bought stone size 10 in not sure what mm they are but they are too big I'm going o drop right down to ss6 or 7 xx

Tbh I didn't know they came in diff sizes but I suppose the smaller they are the better they will look. Would these not catch on everything?

These look lovely:) x
 
No they didn't catch at all. They were fine actually :)
 
Oh lolly they look fab! Where did you get them from? X
 
when i went on my swarovski course everyone used SS07, I had SS09 and personally i preferred them on toes as the crystal look was acheived better.

However the ady i worked on had hot pop pink shellac with white glitter then SS07 scattered on the toes and this looked gorge!

For fingers however id definatly go for SS05/06/07.

I bought mine from scatter crystals xxx
 
Hi geeks do you know where I can get Swarovski bows :?:

Hi! I assumed u just make them from the crystals in a 32123 formation ! I might be wrong so pls correct me if I am :)
 
Hello

I have ordered some crystals which I have never used before so will be practicing on myself first. I was just wondering what you do when removing them:) x
