You can call me “iridessence queen”.
Any time I sit down to do my nails and draft out a design in my mind… I literally end up with something iridescent or holographic. Like… look at my nails… iridescent accents. Today is no different. I’m going to be using mica flakes to create today’s look.
If you’re not familiar with mica flakes… Mica flakes are these super thin foil sheets (I mean like super thin, they literally go airborne once you open the container) and they tend to be multicolor or iridescent.
Mica flakes require very little effort to apply to the nails, you’ll see me just lay them on to the tacky layer of the gel color. Definitely much much easier to encapsulate than glitter, so if you’re struggling to encapsulate glitter smoothly do give mica flakes a try.
All of the product sources will be linked below along with any promo codes available to you, should anything peak your interest to want to buy, and please remember to use our promo codes to support his channel.
Also, I’ll be jumping in a couple of times in the video to talk about two new releases that I think you may be into- a product release and a new course release.
Make sure to keep your ears open for those little pop-ins.
When you’re ready hit play!
The Kokoist USA team is closing out the Summer season with a bang.
If you don’t know, the Nail Thoughts collaboration in the Kokoist line up is the bottled gel line, which consists of tinted builders and bottled color.
And this week there are 5 Nail Thoughts releases. Yes 5. Here they are:
🌸Release #1
Nail Thoughts Vol. 4 Which consists of 6 new base gels.
🌸Release #2
A limited edition 5 Flash Base Gel Collection, in addition to the 6 new tinted base gels in #1 one.
(And remember, Nail Thoughts Bases are both base and builder in one, so there is no additional base gel needed. You use the same product for base, and also to build with it.)
🌸Release #3
One limited edition Flash Top Coat, which you can buy on its own or get it as a free gift, when you buy the Flash Base Bundle.
🌸Release #4
12 limited edition Flash Color Gels
(So these are just color, you’ll need a base or enhancement underneath before applying them)
🌸Release #5
The Nail Thoughts Gel Storage Box, which can store up to 70 of your Nail Thoughts Bottles.
And that’s it… just that.

I want to share this quick little story with you. When I first wanted to get into business as a nail tech, I searched, and searched the internet for a guide or blueprint that laid it all out for me as far as what my next steps were to become a licensed nail tech and start my nail business. All of the information I found was scattered and/or incomplete.
Until I found an ebook, that was about an inch thick, and I printed every single page from my home printer and even bought a binder for it because I was that committed to learning the nitty gritty to find nail tech success…
But it wasn’t what I was looking for. It ended up being a book about how to open a nail salon and the pay structure for such, and a whole lot of other stuff that just didn’t connect.
And after helping hundreds of nail stylists in their journey as specialized gel stylists- with some even finding success within a year’s time frame, I wanted to put together a guide for you, a skinny framework of all the steps that you need to take in order to master your gel nail application, and get to booked solid success within a year.
I’m putting it all together, nice and easy, in my upcoming course, The Roadmap For Nail Tech Success. The Roadmap is going to help you explore and implement the exact steps to take for nail tech success within a year. Mastering long-wearing gel nails, becoming booked solid, and even exploring the possibility of a six figure yearly income, doing only nails.
This course is debuting very soon. If you want to stay in the know, make sure you’re subscribed to the waitlist or checkout the enrollment link.
