I am sorry for your loss🙏
I’m sorry for your loss and aweee how special!
So sorry 🙏
Finally!! Someone who actually answered all of my questions. Very informative
I am glad I found this I was struggling to find an actual tutorial on nail foil. This was easy to understand and follow. I am a DIY er, I just wanted to thank u for doing such an amazing job.
Me too!
But can base coat be used first if you don’t have adhesive foil gel?
I clicked so many yt videos on how to foil nails, most had different info & none of them worked quiet like your video. I've subscribed & saved it for later inspo as well. A big thank you from a nail foil newbie. 💅🏽 ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing I’ve been searching and watching everybody’s videos and you were the only one who shared where you bought your foil art
You are a wonderful teacher! I just started doing my own nails again...years ago I did acrylics, but gel is the way to go...and then I discovered foils! Your tutorial was excellent and helped so much! Thank you for sharing! 😁
Prolly one of the best videos I’ve seen on this yet. I really hope they sponsor you because I think I’ll be buying their brand now thanks to you
Enjoyed these tips! Thank you for sharing 💜💚
Thank God I bumped into this tutorial ❤
thank you, you got me so excited to do foils for a newbie
I really enjoy the times given for FF thru video to what I need to view. thank you for this tutorial.
Great tutorial. Thank you 🙏🏻 💅
Great video ❤. I feel confident now to do these
Thank you this was very detailed and very helpful 😊
Great video. I’m new to foil and this put my mind at ease. Look forward to watching more!
Ok this looks so easy. Thanks for uploading.
This video was great thanks for showing me how to use the foils.
Thanks LOVED this ordered some of the foils and glue and the designer ones !!!!!!
I got these foils on Shein for 1.00$
temu has for 44 cents
Best video yet on nail foils
Just got a foil.kit..and have some more coming...can't wait to try them
Yes! Can't wait for you to play around with them
Wow you are so creative. Thank you for the wonderful video.
Thank you! great tutorial! 😊
Thanks for the detailed video 🖤🖤🖤
I love the leopard idea!!
Thanks for clarifying!!! Been wanting to this for years but always confused which side to use for transferring the design 😭
Thank you so much ❤
You explained it very well 🫶🏻
Omg so cute!
Hi Amy I’m new to playing with nail art, having lots of fun learning but totally failed on the foiling so far 😂 I wonder if my crafting foils would work. I love how much I can use between crafts and nail art! Anyway thanks for all the good tips you have a great style in your videos and I’m sure you’re gonna do real well on CZcams! I subscribed! You are close to that 1k best of luck to you. I look forward to watching more of your content. Keep up the good work 💕
Thank you so much for all the love!
I can’t make the folks work either 😣
Your nail color is beautiful!!
Wow! Thank you!
Very helpful. Thank you!🥰
Thank you I need this video thanks!❤
Thank you for the coupon. Can't wait to get my goodies. 😄
Awesome video. Brand new at doing this.
Nice tutorial and designs! 💗😊
Thank you 💕
Cool. The designer ones are ok.... I prefer the abstract ones. You can really have more fun with them due to their versitility. Making new art creations out of "nowhere!" That's the best one....I think. 🤗♥️💅🏾💅🏼💅🏿💅
Amazing teacher
Thank you!!! I have been doing this so wrong!!!
Up until now, I had no idea how to apply foil transfers to my nails, but this tutorial was very informative and incredibly easy to follow. Thank You so much for your wonderful tutorial of foil transferring! On a side note...I would really love to know, what color is the glitter polish that you are wearing in this tutorial? I've been looking for that color and have yet to find it. I think it's gorgeous!💅 Thanks again! 💖💕☺
P.S. I forgot to mention...I am a new subscriber. Can't wait to watch all your other videos and learn more from you!🥰
Thank you so much!! The glitter I was wearing here is Light Elegance 'Kiss me in Kenya'
New subscriber, this video was so helpful! Can you do a video showing full coverage holographic/glitter foils? I find those are the most tricky to work with to get full/near perfect coverage on the nail.
Thank you! I will add the full coverage foils to my list for tutorials to make! They are tricky!
I saw your video, and I like the foil, glue gel instead of me buying it in Amazon. I bought it from you you look very perfect and I don’t want to go through a lot of bottles looking and looking I liked yours, so yeah, this is my first time purchasing from you will see thank you.🙏🔥🔥
Thank you so much!
@@AmysNailAddiction how can i get these foils from u? Is price different of different designs? Price plz
Love your nails, followed. I tried to get the foil to transfer with the sticky base gel. I couldn’t get it to work. Ordered the foil glue.. hope that works
When you put the foil adhesive on the nail, cure it for 60 seconds, let it cool down for a minute or two and then transfer your foil. Hope that helps! I just learned, and it made things much easier.
Thank u at last I'm getting clear info & confidence in using products! I'm wondering if u know if foils can be used in reverse, probably not, but I find the design on the back is so much prettier than some of the designs! Thank u Sarah
They cannot. It will not stick if you do them backwards.
Thank you so much for this video. Any tips for using foil on dip powder?
This was the easiest I have seen anyone apply foil to nails.
I am so glad this video could help! I have never worked with dip powder but I imagine you can put the foil gel on top of your color. If by chance it doesn’t seem to be sticking I would try putting a gel base coat before the foil gel so it has something to stick to ☺️
@@AmysNailAddiction Thank you! I will try this.
Love the tutorial😊 I have trouble with my foil creasing 😣
I have struggled with that too. Just takes practice to get it all smoothed out!
Thanks for the video! Can you make loose foil chunkies from foils or remnant pieces for encapsulation?
yes the irridecent foils would be perfect for encapsulation!
Good teacher
Thank you
I enjoy watching your tutorials I’m new to your channel! I just started back doing my own nails? I will definitely be doing the foil art? Where can I purchase the foil transfer gel
Thank you so much! I have the link to the foil gel in my description box and a discount code as well :)
Hey I’m new to this do I cure and foil each nail individually?
I tried the Jelly adhesive gel on my client and she had a bad allergy to it. She's never had any troubles with any products before so I was surprised. Thick skin built up under the nails, the sides looked swollen and red, she said they hurt and her nail beds turned brown. Her nails were great before this was applied but the reaction seemed to take about 4 days.
Please contact the business owner to let them know about this issue!
Thank you dear for this wonderful tutorial how about if l want to put foil on natural nails that l have put gellish color do l put the adhesive on top of gell top coat or
I would do your color of choice then apply the foil adhesive, apply the foils, then apply your top coat. I would also suggest doing two layers of top coat to really seal in the foils. Hope this helps
Hi loved your video. Very informative. Could you please tell me where I can buy the designer foils ?
These are from JellyNails1.com I do have a discount code AMY10% unfortunatly the website is down for work at the moment. Hopefully will be up soon!
I wish you did the iridescent foil because it is the hardest to tell what side is up or down.
I will add the iridecent foils to my list to make for tutorials!
Beautiful nails but you make it look so easy 🤦🏻♀️🥰 . I'm gunna try your technique and see if it works for me. What's the little rubber end called?
Thank you so much! It is a reusable cuticle pusher :)
Hi im new subscriber I search CZcams how to use transfer foil, and lucky I saw your video,and this is very helpful for me😊 I have some question where did you get the GG,chanel and LV design?😃 I love those so pretty😍
So glad my video could help you! There are links to the foils in my description. All from JellyNails
@@AmysNailAddiction 😃 yes thank you so much! 😊
Hi thank you for this excellent Video , what are the legalities of on selling the LOGO nails if your were to sell them as press ons ?
I am not sure! You will have to look into them probably per designer
These foils are from Shein and they range from $1 to $2 a box ..
Forgot to mention great tutorial ❤
I wouldn't say that these are, but there are dupes available on Shein, and probably Wish as well lol.
Temu and aliexpress
I bought the spacey tye dye ones off temu for 44 cents
What is s the name of the gel?
@@rosedolch8637can you tell me the name and f the gel?
So my nail tech never ever put the foils on like this. He always pluck some on like constantly pressing and lifting. The design would be gorgeous, but now I see he did not know what he was doing. Thank u
❤❤
Question, since making this video have you started measuring your foils the other way? Vertical instead of horizontal. That’ll give you more use of the foils
It just depends on the design that determines which way I go with it. But yes that will give you more use!
Will this work regardless if you have let's say a top coat? Like if you do a color then want a foil on top , do u put the foil before the top coat or after?
The foil has to be before the top coat. You need to seal in the foil and the color gel with a top coat or it won’t last
@@AmysNailAddiction i did exactly what you said and it worked perfectly! Thank you so so much
My another brand foil gel is always making threads after curing when I touch it and doesn’t even stick the foil. I cure it like twice thrice in my 6W lamp which cures in 45secs so I wonder what’s wrong, someone else did it in a larger lamp and it looked okay, idk where I’m going wrong
I would suggest looking into the brand of foil gel you have and see what wattage they require for the gel. It is possible you may need a bigger lamp
Amazing video! Thank you. I want more designs on my nails and I’m looking for a new nail artist. Any suggestions on how to find someone like you? Obviously there’s a lot of nail salons mostly Asian run- and they aren’t current on trends anymore I’m finding. I’ve gone there for years and they are lovely people but I’ve noticed American women tend to keep up more with the nail trends and designs. I just don’t know how to locate a American nail artist? Also sorry I don’t know how to ask this- and I’m not trying to be offensive but I needed to explain myself in order to find what I’m looking for. Like I said I’ve been going to salons for years and appreciate their work- just looking to mix it up.
Hello thank you for watching! I would suggest doing a search on google as well as Instagram and Tiktok for nail salons in your area. I feel like most techs who are keeping up on the trends and are really into nail art will be posting on social media. And this way you can look through and see all of their work and decide who would be a best fit for you. Hope this helps
If you remove it with acetone,do you have to reaply another layer of foil gel again?
Yes you will have to add another layer of foil gel because the acetone will remove the tacky layer
What’s the name and link for that yellowish polish you used at the end? 😍
I am not sure which one you are refering to. If it is the orange striping polish here is the link www.jellynails1.com/collections/artist-tools/products/stripping-art-polish-gels-12-colors-set You can use code AMY10% to save on that website. If that was not the one you wanted to know please explain and I'll send a new link :)
Tried buying the designer logo print #1 but that site didn't have them. In fact I couldn't find them anywhere on the internet 😢
She is no longer carrying the logo ones but I did find them at Glitter Mix Canada. Here’s the link to that pack but also scroll thru their other ones they seem to carry a lot of logo and character ones ☺️

@AmysNailAddiction how can i get these foils from u? Is price different of different designs? Price plz
They are from JellyNails. I have a code AMY10% or use this link www.jellynails1.com/discount/AMY10%2525
Hi..Great video...where can I get these foils from?
Thank you! These foils are from here www.jellynails1.com/discount/AMY10%2525
Where did you get your nail tips from? 💖💖✨✨
They are also from JellyNails www.jellynails1.com/discount/AMY10%2525
Can I use just clear gel & then cure & then foil if I don’t have the transfer gel?
No they leave different types of tacky layers so it would not transfer properly
What's a substitution for the foil adhesive? Is it just base coat?
Unfortunately there isn’t one. The foil adhesive is specifically made for the foils
Hey I ordered like four packs of these and for some reason they are not sticking? I tried less foil coat and more foil coat from jelly nails, I’m not sure bc of the nails I have,I have clear,white acrylics I even tried file in the surface of the nail before transfer, I also let the gel foil sit for 5 seconds 90seconds and longer and it’s still slippery?
To me it sounds like the gel is not cured. I would do a VERY thin coat for the foil gel. Also check your wattage on your lamp, it is possible that the wattage does not work with this particular gel. Check in with JellyNails for further information about this if you continue to have issues. Hope that helps
omgg!!! i did what you told me and girlll it came out so amazinggg !! Thank you so muchhh, I had to watch it again to do every step thanks to you I'm happy i bought these !! I definitely don't regret ittt!
@@jayfly9385 Yayyyy I'm so glad that worked out!!
What colour it will be if we mix golden and silver nail polish?
I'm not sure! Maybe a copper or brown? That would be a fun experiment
Question to seal it you use a gel top coat?
Yes!
Wo bekommt man die Folie mit lv und Chanel dior
Hey Amy ...I always struggle with this but will remember ...cure for 90 seconds and let cool of 5 seconds...is that right...... I WILL WRITE THIS DOWN IN MY FOIL BOX ...LOL
Yes write it down to remember!
I have foils and the foil gel. I did the exact steps that you've done. N my foils will not stick.
Idk wat I am doing wrong
Are you working on top of gel polish for the foils?
Can I use anything else if I don't have the bottle of stuff your using to make it stick
15:56
No because it is a system. The foils are made to go with the foils adhesive
HELP! I have tried so many methods and none work! The foil just slides off the gel nail glue. I am using Makkart foils and gel glue on various gel polishes. What the heck am I doing wrong. I wipe the polish after curing then cure the glue. Please help?
Hi there! So I am not familiar with the Makkart foils but to start off do not wipe the polish before adding the gel glue. Gel sticks to gel so you need that adhesive layer on there. 2nd I would double check the curing times and the type of light it recommends. Each brand is different. Hope that helps!
Is air dry foul glue ok for gel nails?
You can try it! I would just make sure the foil glue is fully dry and then go in with a gel top coat. Let me know if you test it out ☺️
How I buy the stickers
If l wore nails as long as hers, I would have to carry a nail cleaning brush and a case because I know products and everything else would creep under them. They look good but unless l have a maid , I couldn't function. I'm not putting my hands in those lamps anymore. I was hesitant when they first came our! Now l see why l was. Good video. I'm just watching I'm 2023.
Ordered the foil gel can’t get it to work ughhhh
My foils still do not transfer it’s really bothering me I don’t understand why I can’t get them right
do you recommend doing one finger at a time, or a whole hand?
You can do the whole hand all together :)
Is that a base?
Great tutorial but, I do have to point out that translucent means light gets through but you cannot clearly see through the material. The foils with the clear backgrounds are transparent, meaning you can see clearly through the open areas. You keep referring to the clear background foils with scattered images as translucent when they are transparent.
Oh yes! Thank you for telling me the difference. I definitely was mixing them up. I will try to keep that in mind in the future ☺️
I have tried so many foil gels and regular gel and nothing works
Message me on Instagram if you need more help! Big things are to check your cure time for your lamp as well as making sure you are using the correct side of the foils
i was going to purchase your nail foils but the sale price is not carrying over into my cart. Am I missing something?
Did you add my discount code at the end? AMY10% Or is it a different issue?
What kind of nail gel it this..
I used the foil adhesive gel from Jellynails for the foils
You do
Ive used so many different kinds and can NOT get the foil to stick
Message me on Instagram @amysnailaddiction maybe I can help you step by step!
What is the name of the gel?
Transfer Adhesive Gel
I’ll try my best to follow step-by-step, but it seems like it just doesn’t wanna work out for me
