Using Kool Aid for Nail Stain

[MstrssMe]

I just purchased the above 2 items from eBay and will be attempting to stain my nails a dark red. I've scoured the net high and low for any stories people have shared but I can't find didly. Anyone here ever hear of this use for Kool Aid?

Hello All, I'm Mst~ thank you for any and all replies on this!

ADD: I want a pretty nail color that can last a long time, way longer than nail polish. I'm going to experiment and see what Kool Aid can do to achieve this. Stain a couple times to get a dark red, then after it's dry and clean, use a top coat for shine. I'm excited!

On a more serious (professional note..)

Kool aid is water soluble... remember nails allow water to pass through far faster than skin - I can imagine that they would soak out the colour VERY quickly...

Have you tried Shellac? Lasts far better than traditional nail polish...

Hmm see I know so little about nails! I didn't know about how much water they are able to let pass through them.

Envy, are you saying that it isn't possible to do a good dye job on your nails? I was going to also put a long lasting chip free top coat on afterwards, and of course maintain that. Lol no bueno? >_<

I guess what I'm saying is:

if it were possible to get a good 'dye job' for nails then there would be a professional version available... as there isn't I'm going to say that any idea that gets cooked up along the way is just a 'wives tale' for what works..

There are so many good professional solutions that can last weeks before maintenance - even a high quality polish applied professionally can last weeks

You can spend a fortune on crazy ideas that ultimately lead you back to getting it done by someone who dedicates their business to giving you beautiful long lasting services..
