Despite knowing about this hack, I was still WOWED when you pulled away the sponge from that first contact! I honestly don't think any glitter has EVER had THAT MUCH of a deposit on the nail...ISN FLAKIES FOR THE WIN!!!!🏆🥇🏆
But if I have to use a sponge to apply it opaque,why can't I Scream nails just show honestly what it looks like in their swatches? I don't think I should have to pay 14 bucks for a polish that I have to use a special application method? Am I being too picky? I know that I scream Nails CAN make fully opaque polishes, so why don't they? I love a lot about that brand, but see a lot of room for improvement in how they show their products. I notice they have been using less of the press on nails on their website, that's a start. Really enjoy your content Kelli, thank you.
@@fighttheevilrobots3417 that's one of the main reasons why I like to apply my swatches as normal (not sponged) for my reviews, so you can see exactly how they perform! But I would love to see them show different swatching options on their site too!
Oh that makes me so happy to hear 🥰 and it was the start of my fave series on my channel - Nail Polish 101! It's been such a pleasure to be able to share tips and tricks with this community 😅🩷
I love using this kind of sparser sparkly ones as toppers on shimmers or solid colors. I love how versatile they are including being able to just pack them on there like sardines with this trick.
Yesss definitely! I just reviewed the collection this polish is from and showed them as toppers over black and white too, they look so gorgeous over other colors 😅
@@OneSweetDay489 the sponge absorbs most of the liquid solvent that makes up the nail polish but the flakes (and glitters, since this technique fits those polishes too!) are too large so they just stay on top and keep just enough polish that they can stick to your nail. when you brush polishes like this on your nail there's only so much you can put on before the liquid part of the polish starts dripping off. you can get flakie polishes like that which are packed enough that you only need 1-2 coats (i have some small flaky duochromes in the same colors as the one in the video), but i'd guess that collection was formulated to also be worn as a topper
When your glitter has a very runny base, you have to let it sit for a few seconds on the sponge, or else it's going to make a gummy mess over your fingertips (yes, I learned it the bad way lol).
It can definitely be a little textured but top coat should smooth it out! Just make sure you aren't applying multiple coats of glitter with the sponge over the same area!

Flakies really do the best with a sponge, it's incredible to see!!
I'm using I Scream Nails Ride or Die for this video 🥰 full review on my channel!

That trick is how I found your channel like 10+ years ago! I've loved your channel, and especially you, ever since!

That's how I found her channel, too! 😄 and the trick totally works!
SAME!!! This and the remove glitter trick were what made me subscribe. ❤

I had completely forgotten to check it out despite adding it to my watch later list. Curse you, ADHD...
@@Call-me-Al haha! No worries, I think you'll especially like them over white!! 💅
It’s almost like flakie polishes were made for this technique🙀 I was not expecting that level of payoff on the first dab.
Right?! It's amazing 😂😂
Same! Like how in the world did the glitter barely apply on the nail but was super dense on the sponge? 🤯

I love that you're reposting this tip because some of your newer followers may not know! 💖 And this gorgeous flakie is perfect for this technique! 🤩
All these amazing I Scream Nails toppers recently has me breaking out the sponges haha! I figured it might be helpful for the newbies 😜
@@KelliMarissa ABSOLUTELY! 💖
That polish is so beautiful
And great hack! Thank you
Totally agree, I love a good multichrome flakie and I Scream Nails makes incredible ones!
So cool, Kelli!!! 🥰😘❤
🥰🥰🥰
Dab dab dab til your nails look fab. Use liquid latex around the nail before dabbing for less cleanup 🖒
Or you can just use tape around your nails! Cheaper and quicker 😜
@@KelliMarissa very true! I usually have liquid latex because it's useful for other projects, but tape is an affordable/practical option
@@KelliMarissa tape is a brilliant idea! I'll try that instead of liquid latex next time I pack on the glitter 🎉
😮Wow looks Amazing!! 🤩🤩
🥰🥰🥰
I'm so impressed! I love this idea! Thank you Kelli. 🎉

Yesss it's such a game changer!! 🥰🥰
I tried this so many times and it leaves bumps on my nails 😐
It can definitely be a little textured but top coat should smooth it out! Just make sure you aren't applying multiple coats of glitter with the sponge over the same area!
