Love love love! Very helpful! Thank you for sharing. I've asked so many people what they use for large stones and they never respond. The pivot makes sense too!
Beautiful, absolutely well done. You are not only a nail tech, but a jeweler! I try to explain the facet situation and prong all the time, and still have the request for gel overlaying crystals!! QUICK QUESTION: Can I add a no rub top coat directly over a builder gel without curing it first then cure it... will it come out ready? Or sticky?
So helpful👍thank u Can u also tell something about the rhinestone gels that claim to be 2-in-1 to work both as rhinestone glue and a no wipe top coat..arnt the glue gels bound to remain sticky after curing?
I really love the crystals on your nails ! Where we're they purchased? What color nail polish do you have on also , and where we're the products on your nails purchased ? I can't wait to do mine !
I love watching Gina's videos! Such a great educator. I have bling on but it never worked as well as I wanted but now I see I needed to follow up with the extra steps I can't wait to try it again
How does your Bling-On differ from Max Estrada's Gummy Jelly? I tried the Gummy Jelly and was beyond disappointed with it. When I emailed Max Estrada to ask what I needed to do differently, after providing a detailed explanation of my problem, I just got a very insulting answer... I really WANT Bling. But I want Bling to work!😃
This demo was done on NAILS associate editor, Katherine, and it lasted three solid weeks without any crystals falling off. After three weeks, she says one of the small crystals in between came off while she was actively prying open boxes.
My problem with Gummy Jelly was that it wouldn't cure, even though I was using it exactly as instructed. I am assuming that this is not a problem with your product.
Oh wow - I am so disappointed in this feedback. I actually discovered this brand last week and was really considering purchasing it. But now that I have seen the Akzentz gel I am sold!!! Thank you for the video.
For most products, you would have to use each company's full line to ensure the products work as instructed. This would include the UV/LED light as well. Also, just wanted to note for clarity - all the products we show in our videos highlight products from other companies, we do not sell our own nail products.
I have used the gummy jelly with success but I put the shinee top coat over the jelly before curing. I tried curing just the jelly by itself and it didn't work. So, I'm guessing it works together somehow.
I believe she meant the tacky layer is from the crystal clear gel from the pot. she said no tacky layer for the shine on top coat that comes in a bottle.
RockYourNails I don't know what went wrong. I think it may well have been a bad batch. I know I researched how to use the product, used it absolutely according to directions, and even cured it for a full 5 minutes eventually. At that point I emailed Max and asked for help. The company sent me the most insulting email in response. Since I had TOTALLY detailed EVERY step I had taken... Well, I can read. I can write. I have a college degree. Needless to say, Max and I are not going to be friends. I also started seeing videos about how Enail Couture was not making friends and influencing others. It's a shame, because I liked the descriptions and the prices there.😞
@@CynicalSim Sorry, but that was GOOD business practice. If I had a product that weren't performing correctly, I would SURE want to know. My business practice was, "go the extra mile to make the customer happy!" (Although behind the counter where only I and my employees could see... I had a sign, "Remember the customer is always right...no matter how wrong they may be.". And I was very successful in my businesses!
@@jaykb6587 Okay, so, as you said in your comment, you wrote Max because Akzentz's products didn't work for you?! I'm sorry, that is just plain ignorant. I'm not going to write Toyota because my Honda doesn't work and expect them to fix it. And if you just randomly came on a video about Akzent's products to complain about a different company's product--making it look like you are talking about theirs, well, that is just plain ignorant. Either way, wow. "RockYourNails--I don't know what went wrong. I think it may well have been a bad batch.

Very helpful. And the nail tech's nails are unbelievably gorgeous. 😍😍😍

So helpful👍thank u
Can u also tell something about the rhinestone gels that claim to be 2-in-1 to work both as rhinestone glue and a no wipe top coat..arnt the glue gels bound to remain sticky after curing?
Thank you! Super helpful and straight to the point!
can you pl do a video on various patterns in which crystals can be placed? tks
Does the bling on need to go over a filed surface? Can it go over gel that has tacky layer? can it go directly on acrylic?
I really love the crystals on your nails ! Where we're they purchased? What color nail polish do you have on also , and where we're the products on your nails purchased ? I can't wait to do mine !

Let us know if it works for you!
That nail you show at 0:42, what is the iridescent orb at the bottom of the cluster called/where can I get it? :)
Stunning! I'm learning how to do this at home. Using brush on nail glue. Looks ok. A bit cloudy.
Lisa Janette yeah the awesome thing about gel is it won't eat at the plastic backing the way some glue does
Thank you for this very insightful and detail video clip.
I don’t understand the pivot the lamps are lined with high shine metallic sheets that are highly reflective but you feel the pivot is necessary?
What kind of gel are you using
Can I just use a clear builder gel with a gel top coat?
Can I use a 6w lamp to cure it? If not which is good
Liked your video what kind of nail curer do you have?
What size (in mm or ss reading) are the 1st 3 chatons you apply in a cluster? :)
Where did you get the gems please answer
Where did you get the GEMS!!!?

What brand crystal are these
I used I used a thick cohesiveness glue and Mom's been on for two days
Is it for natural nails???
Is there a way to do this w/o using gel & lamps? can you put stones on/ around nail stickers?
Thanks for this helpful amazing video😊 really like it.👍👍👍
So, either way, I have to go to a salon? Does it have to be cured? I was really hoping to do this myself. Can the crystals go on nail stickers?
Does this works with any hard gel? It’s?
whats the link to the big crystals and regular crystals.
You can find some of the crystals on Gina's website: www.gelessentialz.com.
Love it, thanks for sharing!
Where can i get the gel play?
You can visit akzentz.com to find a distributor in your area.

Very nice. Thanks
Thanks soo much ❗️🤍
nice thanks for sharing
Looks like builder gel.
...."Acetone doesn't harm crystals?" Acetone removes the shine, so acetone does harm crystals.
actually it doesn't. I always use a q tip and use acetone to clean the top of my clients stones when I'm done.
If you opt for cheap crystals, acetone will probably make them dull. Don't buy cheap crystals.
Sara Evans I only use Swarovski.
First you said it has no tacky layer then you say let me wipe it in case it has a tacky layer.
I believe she meant the tacky layer is from the crystal clear gel from the pot. she said no tacky layer for the shine on top coat that comes in a bottle.
