Freshwater Shell - White

Bring natural texture and iridescent shine to your nail art with Vacation Nail Shop Shell Flakes and Fragments. These real shell pieces are curated for nail artists who want to add depth, dimension, and that signature light-catching finish to their designs.

Because these are natural shell materials, each jar is unique. While we do our best to represent them as accurately as possible, slight variations in color, size, and texture are part of their natural charm.

Encapsulating Shells with Gel

• Shell pieces vary in thickness, so leave enough room to fully encapsulate
• Break pieces to your desired size before application
  
• Apply a small amount of clear gel or charm adhesive gel and place the shell piece
  
• Flash cure to secure placement, then fully cure once complete
  
• Apply builder gel overlay and cure
  
• File gently to smooth any edges or raised areas
  
• Remove dust and seal with top gel

3D Nail Art with Shells

• Break and shape shell pieces as needed, smoothing any sharp edges
• Apply charm adhesive gel and place shell pieces, flash curing as you go
• Fill gaps with clear gel, hard gel, or top gel for a seamless finish
• Apply top gel, keeping it thin over shells, and cure

Using Shells with Traditional Polish

• Shell pieces cannot be fully encapsulated with regular polish and will have texture
  
• Break and shape pieces before application
  
• Apply polish and let dry completely
  
• Use nail glue to secure shell pieces
  
• Seal with top coat (additional layers may be needed)
