Nail Art Tutorial by Liliya- Gel 3D Smoke with Glitter

3D Nail Art by Liliya

Nail Art?? Let's do some Nail Art! :) This design was created by one of the Nail Artists and I thought it was really nice. I work with Akzentz gels and focus on gel nails and gel nail art. Please let me know if you have any questions about nail art or nail design =)

I will add freehand (hand painted) designs as well. 3D acrylic nails with 3D acrylic flowers and designs will be added too.

@Lola119953 hi :) just don't buff the plastic nail. Then the gel nail will come off easily!

How can u remove the nail on the finger practice? Love the roses, they are make with acrylic paint? I will love to see the tutorial for those roses.

@dovlecel21 Oh, it won't get stuck there. Try it :) Yes, hand painted flowers were made with acrylic paint (water based).

Liliya, beautiful work. In this video, you are using a glitter mix? How do you make yours? I know the ratio with acrylics but is there a ratio (glitter to gel) when mixing and does it have to be a certain type of glitter? Can you use mylar, sprinkles etc? Thanks

[NailArtByLiliya]

@Apricotic Thank you :)

I usually use premixed glitters that come from a manufacturer. If you want to mix your own just make sure that the ratio is about 2 parts of glitter to 1 part of clear gel if the glitter is a light color. If it's darker, put less glitter because the mixture won't cure properly. Another point- when you mix try to keep your mixture almost the same viscosity as your gel was before mixing. If it becomes more thick it has less chances to cure well.

You can use mylar :)

@lalovergirl505 some of the points are: gel is weightless, whereas L&P (aka acrylic) system feels heavy on your nails; gel is not porous, so it will not stain (yellow) like L&P; gel has no odors, but has lots of dust when you file it; to remove acrylic nails you soak them off in acetone, to remove gel you file them off. I prefer gel :)

Hi Liliya, Love the black-white and gold nail. I gt my nails magazine and was surprised to see and article on you. I hope someday you can do a cover. You are truly talented. I have done nails for 20 years and consider myself quite creative, but nothing compared to you. keep up the good work. i'll be watching
