Mer Misa Wishing on a Star

Strålande sol över Stockholm! Här ser ni min lilla nailart grej också. Den är gjord så att jag lagt stenarna i lacket innan de torkat och sedan lagt två lager överlack över. De känns när man drar med fingret över dem, men de är rätt väl nersänkta i lack. Man kan inte känna dem individuellt utan som ett tjockt band.

Ni ser hur djupt de ligger?

De sticker knappt upp alls.
So, Steph, if you read this, I tried to take some pictures to show how deeply embedded the gemstones are. I place them on the nail before the polish is fully dried, then apply two coats of top coat. I can feel the gems with my fingertip but not as individual gems, but as a ridge in the polish. They sit very securely. I never dropped one. And I don't get caught with them in my hair or in clothes. The top coat is thick enough to make the suface, well, not smooth but without edges.
Oooooh ok. That makes sense. So then I just have one more question. Does the top coat over the gemstone make the gemstone less sparkly? And thank you so much for answering my question so quickly and thoroughly! <3
