OK at-home chrome! ✨
Wow, better than expected — fast, easy and not messy! You rub the pen over a cured layer of Red Carpet Manicure "Insta-Chrome Gel Steps 1 & 3 | No Wipe Gel Coat" (in quotes 'cause it's all one name lol), and then follow with another coat of same and cure. If the sponge-tip pen seemed to run out betw...

Nope, Lasts 2 Minutss5
In order to use this Step 2 pen you have to purchase the clear Step 1 base/top coat as well. You apply a thin layer of the clear gel, LED lamp for 60 seconds, sponge this color dust on, then clear gel & LED lamp for 60 more seconds, & you're done. It's beautiful and chromy..at first but only lasts a...

Works so well and is beautiful! 😍
I bought the pink opal color (I think that's what it's called) and put it over hot pink and it turned out so beautiful! I can't wait to try others! PLEASE follow the directions.. people saying it don't work clearly didn't read them. It works great!

Beautiful
I received this with other nail items for free with an order i placed. I have a gel light but chose to do this over regular nail polish. I used a base coat, then 2 coats of nail polish let the polish dry and rub the pen over the dried nail polish. I followed with a top coat. It turned out beautiful. I will be ordering more colors.
This DOES work if you do it right
This pen & the outcome is AMAZING! For the people in the reviews saying this doesnt work and rubs off…you musy use the 'step 1 & 3' gel coat FIRST, cure with UV light, then use this chrome powder pen. If you do this correctly and follow the directions, this tirns out incredible and lasts!!
Pretty but misleading advertising.
Is was so excited to purchase this chrome nail pen but unfortunately was disappointed that the applicater tip was flat and rounded unlike the photos and demo video that showed more precise tip. The concept is super convenient but unfortunately this isnt something I'd buy again.
YES you can use over regular clear lacquer
You can 100% use this over a clear regular base coat, or even a complimenting color polish! I have a love hate relationship with gel polish. Just can't commit to one color for more than a week, for one. So I took my chances and tried this over a regular clear coat and a color polish and BAM! IT WORKED! Steps: clear coat, dry, chrome rub, clear coat, dry. Literally the fastest easiest mani EVER. I noticed in the store there were 2 different boxes it came in. 1 black and the applicator was more flat. The other in a silver/chrome box and the applicator was more bulbous. Not sure which one came first but the flat one was much easier to use, control and barely ever touched my skin and no messy clean up. The bulbous one was very messy, bulky and awkward. I don't do well with messy. I hate messy. Try it for yourself. Thank me later.

How many full set of nail applications can u get out of each pen?
- Asked by Robin

- Q
I followed each step and my nails after final step still feel tacky
- Asked by Ashley N
- Official Answer By Red Carpet Manicure - Brand EngageHello, Gel Top Coat leaves a tacky layer (inhibition layer) after curing, this is normal. This has to be wiped off with a cleanser liquid. When using Chrome we recommend using a NON-WIPE Gel Top Coat, which does not leave a tacky layer after fully curing and gives the best chrome resultsWas this answer helpful to you
- Q
I find it hard to cover the edges of my nails because of the shape of the applicator. The rest of my nail where I actually could apply the chrome looks patchy. What technique should I be using to get full coverage of the entire nail and to make it look smooth instead of patchy?
- Asked by Em
- Official Answer By Red Carpet Manicure - Brand EngageHello, thanks for asking a question 😊 Make sure you are using a NON wipe gel top coat and you are not over curing the first gel coat, cure only 30 secs so it is still a bit “tacky” this will help the chrome adhere nice and smooth. If the pen applicator does not have enough chrome it will come out patchy as you apply. We recommend dipping the pen back in the lid every 2 nails. To cover the edges use the pen at slight angle, pulling the skin back surround your nail. Also to note, the applicator is flat and tight because it has not been used since it was packaged and sealed in production, it will expand to a dome shape after continuous use.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can this be used on non-cured gel polish? Such as a gel effect polish that doesn't need to cure under the UV light?
- Asked by Jenny
- Official Answer By Red Carpet Manicure - Brand EngageHello thanks for submitting a question! 😊 These pens can be used on lacquer (non-cured nail polish). Make sure to apply chrome when polish is fully dried and a top coat will be needed after applying the chrome. Please note that any non-cured gel top coat will not last as long and chipping will occur faster.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
My Chrome Pen ran out of product after only applying on 1 nail. How do I make the chrome powder come out?
- Asked by Ms. Chrome Nails
- Official Answer By Red Carpet Manicure - Brand EngageHello! Thank you for submitting your question. Our Insta-Chrome Pens have the chrome powder stored in the cap. For best results we recommend dipping your pen back into the cap every 1-2 nails.Was this answer helpful to you
