Use it as a centrepiece, in mixed-size clusters, along French tips, or as the main shimmer detail on feature nails. Crystal Shimmer Finish Crystal Shimmer gives a softer reflective glow than Crystal AB. It still catches hints of pink, blue and golden light, but the effect is more delicate, allowing the clear crystal base to shine through beautifully. Crystal Shimmer vs Crystal AB Crystal AB has a stronger aurora-style coating that can reflect bold yellow, pink and blue tones, sometimes becoming the main effect of the crystal. Crystal Shimmer has a softer, more elegant glow. It reflects some similar tones, but in a lighter way that lets more of the clear crystal underneath show through. Choose Crystal AB for a louder rainbow sparkle, or Crystal Shimmer for a more refined, luminous finish. How To Apply Complete your colour, base design or nail art as usual. Apply a small amount of gem gel, rhinestone adhesive or thick builder gel where the crystal will sit. Pick up the SS12 crystal with a wax picker or crystal tool. Place the flatback crystal into position and adjust before curing. Secure around the base of the crystal without covering the top surface. Cure according to your gel system instructions. For best sparkle, avoid top coating over the crystal facets.
