Foils and Foil Adhesive


Hi Peeps - Again I have been away for a while this seems to happen when I've got long spells with no holiday time from work.
I had seen a few vlogs and blogs where people had been using foils on their natural nails over normal polish (not just with gel polishes) so I thought this would offer a wider choice of art to put on my nails.
I researched the adhesive that was used and there was a specific adhesive for the job so to eBay I went and got The Edge Nails foil glue.
I was quite excited when this arrived in the post and set to removing my Mani to replace it with my new toys!
 
The glue has the consistency of watered down PVA glue, smells similar too!
After watching a few tutorials I felt confident I could do this!
I painted the glue on my nails waited until it was tacky and foiled away rubbed it a little peeled the foil off and hardly any foil had adhered to the surface mucho sad face! :o(
feeling defeated I have saved this for another day. Back to the researching for me! On the plus side my foils from Born Pretty are amazing and they did work with gel polish see my previous post the colours are so pretty. Click the link for the foils. If anyone has hints and tips please share in the comments.
