Is it possible to do a glitter fade with vinlylux before putting on top coat? What about foil too?
 
Foil I know you can do, you just use some foil adhesive, glitter I find tougher as its hard to get it on as its drying (but not too wet) but it is possible :)
 
I did, I dipped n brushed.... Quickly :)
 
I use the same glitter and foil that I'd use with CND Shellac with Vinylux and it looks great!

For Glitter:
- P.E.P
- First colour layer to all ten nails.
- Second colour layer to first 5 nails, give it a minute, apply glitter with a dry gel brush.
- Repeat on the next 5 nails.
- Vinylux Weekly Top Coat x2

For Foil:
- P.E.P
- First colour layer to all ten nails.
- Second colour layer to all ten nails, give it 5 minutes, apply foil (with firmer presses than you would think!)
- Vinylux Weekly Top Coat.

So pleased you just posted a little tutorial on foil with Vinylux as I was having problems with this last night doing my own.

Thanks, Fee :D xx

The first pic is Vinylux with foils, I applied in the same way as Weefee but added a coat of foil adhesive.

The second is rockstar with Vinylux also done in the same way.

I have two foil pics in my Vinylux album. :)
 
Is it possible to use additives with Vinylux?
 
Yes, just as you would with glitter. :)

Are we talking the pigment powder additives with Vinylux? I tried doing an ombre with the powders and it was patchy & messy looking....any tips? :)

At the CND Playstation, we were told to pat it on after about 6-7 minutes of applying Vinylux. I haven't tried it yet, though. Too busy with Vinylux and foils. :)
