What is kamifubuki for nails

The name “confetti and sequins” perfectly illustrates what kamifubuki is. This is a decoration, most often made of thin foil, of various sizes, shapes - they can be round, diamond-shaped, square, in the form of stars, hearts, etc., they can also be of various shades, glossy or matte.

With the help of kamifubuki you can create a simple, but at the same time original and beautiful nail design. This manicure is ideal for both everyday wear and for an evening out. Kamifubuki are relevant in winter, summer, spring and autumn, it all depends on the choice of decoration and the shade of the decorations.

How to glue kamifubuki nails

Gluing confetti is not difficult at all; they can be attached to simple nail polish or gel. But it should be borne in mind that if you glue them to a simple varnish, they will not last long, even if you cover them with three layers of a transparent fixing coating.

For gel it's a completely different story:

• Of course we shouldn't forget about manicure and cuticle treatment before any coating.
• After processing the cuticles, trimming and filing your nails, do not forget about polishing the nail plates.
• After this, you can apply the base coat and let it dry. in the lamp.
• After this, the legs are covered with a colored coating of any shade of your choice in one or two layers, depending on the thickness of the gel polish.
• Next, there are two options for applying kamifubuk. The first is that they are attached to a sticky layer, which is generally simple. In this case, it is easy to move them, building the desired and beautiful pattern or design. The nails are dried in a lamp and then covered with a topcoat.
• Another option is to apply a layer of topcoat after applying the color coating, and without drying your nails in a lamp, as if to “drown” the sequins in the coating. After applying the confetti, your nails need to be dried under a lamp. But here it will be necessary to apply another top coat so that the edges of the sequins do not stick out and they stick better.
