  • Question
    Will this damage my nails?
    Community Answer
    Definitely be careful with homemade nail glue. It may not be as sturdy as store-bought glue, and if you have easily cracked or brittle nails, I would recommend applying a nail strengthener before applying glue and acrylic nails.
  • Question
    What do I do if I don't have clear nail polish?
    Community Answer
    If you will be covering the nail glue with an acrylic nail, then it works just as well to use a colored nail polish of the same consistency that dries as hard as a clear polish would.
  • Question
    How many days will the nail glue last?

  • Question
    How do I make fake nails?
    Community Answer
    You can make fake nails out of many things, like paper, straws, cornstarch, etc., but the pre-made ones at stores are the best and will work the best for this method.

    Just don't use nail strengthener, it almost does the opposite of what you want. Your nails naturally are flexible, and that helps avoid snapping.
  • Question
    Can I use top coat nail polish instead of clear polish?
    Community Answer
    Yes, but the polish will not stick to it as well. Try a gel top coat and curing it. If you don't have a gel curer, then it's probably fine.

    Yes. They are pretty much the same thing, except top nail coat makes your nails look shiny and smooth.
