I bought these stones to use as nail jewelry. I'm new to making my own gel nails at home and I wanted to recreate many of the photos I see on IG and FB. I really like them, they are very beautiful when you put them on your nails and add a top coat. Unfortunately, without a top coat, these rhinestones look as cheap as "still cute :)". Many of mine were matte rather than glossy and appeared a bit dirty. But again with the top layer going away. I bought gel resin to apply them and I honestly don't see any difference than just using a gel base coat and then curing them with my lamp. So don't think you need fancy (expensive) glue to stick them on your nails. Simply apply a thin layer of gel base coat, add stones, cure in your UV/LED lamp, apply gel top coat, cure again. , spray your nails with alcohol to remove the sticky layer, DONE! Once finished I will definitely be buying again, my goal is to use them and figure out how much or how little base and top coat to use for maximum hold. of them before I make the big leap and buy Swarovski crystals. If you apply too much base/top coat and it gets on your skin and you don't clean it before the nail cures, it will start to peel off and all your stones will come off in one layer. (This means you can peel off the stones and top coat as if it were just a sticker on your nail). If you just add them randomly I don't think you will have this problem. I applied them to my natural nail with no tips or extender gel and all my stones came off in one coat (I have very short nails).
