3D Nail Charms: Matte White Stars with Rhinestones

Welcome to my 3D Nail Charms Series! Today I made matte white stars with rhinestones on them.

Go watch my Video if you are more of a visual person!

I started off by using a wooden manicure stick to scoop the solid gel into the star mold. Next, I made sure its flat, smooth, and filled completely before curing.​

I then let it cure in the lamp for 60 seconds with the front face down. After that, I flip it front face up​ and let it cure for another 60 seconds. Next, I removed the charm from the mold very gently.

I then used a nail file to file the edges and get the excess product off. This is where the shape of the nail charm gets more defined. Next, I dust off any excess dust with a powder brush.

I covered the star with a gel base coat on the front and cure for 60 seconds. I covered the back side with a gel base coat and let it cure for 60 seconds. Repeat the same process with the matte top coat.

I added rhinestone glue to the spots I needed it and applied the rhinestones using tweezers. I then let it cure for 60 to 90 seconds.
