Not quite a charm, not quite glitter. Metal slices are flat, flexible and easy to encapsulate.

 100 pieces

Do not use on or around eyes, discontinue use if irritation occurs. 

Application tips for Metal Slices with gel:

  • Apply a precise dot of clear gel so the glitter has an anchor to adhere to.
  • Test the placement gently shape to add a curve if needed to lay flat.
  • Gently place the slice and use a handheld lamp to flash cure it into place.
  • If the slice is unable to lay flat, gently press it into place with a clear piece of plastic, holding it in place and flash cure through the clear plastic to ensure it’s as flat as possible to the nail. Here's a video example
  • Fully cure once all pieces are placed.
  • Use your finger to feel for any protruding corners or sharp bits, finish filing if necessary.
  • Remove all dust and debris and add top gel, cure.

Application tips for shaped Metal Slices with traditional polish:

  • After applying your base coat and color, let it dry completely.
  • Before you apply your slice test your placement and gently shape to add a curve if needed to lay flat.
  • Apply a dot of clear polish or nail glue (you’ll have to work really fast with nail glue)
  • Place your slice and let the polish or glue dry completely.
  • Apply a thick top coat to seal in the slice, if it’s not laying completely flat you’ll have scratchy bits.
  • Add a second layer of top coat if necessary- with traditional polish it will never be fully smoot, but this will give it an extra layer of security.
