WHERE CAN I GET NAIL JEWELS?

I am hoping you ladies might be able to help me locate a store that carries small jewels that can be used in nail art. Like the little rhinestones. Sally's hardly carries any, and you usually have to buy like a multi pack full of other nail art jewels/rhinestones.


Last Friday I went to Hobby Lobby and found some red ones I planned on using for my Sailor nail art I have been wanting to do, and when I got home and tried to use them, they were way to big. The ones I got from Hobby Lobby were 3mm in size. I need the 1.75mm size.

I tried Walmart and they didn't have what I needed either. Yes I can get these online, but the shipping will cost me $7, and that's the only thing I need to order right now.


Hoping maybe one of you ladies knows of a store that sells these type of things....

Do you have Rite Aids? They carry Nailene BeDazzle nail art and I have some packs with the small jewels in them. I'm sure they're carried elsewhere, but I'm not sure where :/

eBay is always good..? I know it's really hard to find nail rhinestones though.

I buy mine in bulk from etsy here:
http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6933105&section_id=6019969

That seller is really good with replying to emails quickly and there is free shipping. I just did an order and it took about 2 weeks to get from Hong Kong to Aus so I'd say probably the same time to US. That said there are heaps of other sellers that sell looks rhinestones on etsy in a variety of colours etc. If you don't find anywhere let me know and I'll email you my list of suppliers.

btw I got these in my order... how cute are they!?

I think Dollar Tree has been selling some lately! They looked assorted.

it's all about ebay. I got mine from ebay store WorkShop168, random hong kong nail art seller but they have tons of different rhinestones, sizes, shapes colors. I love the little leaf shape, you can use them for lots of different stuff. They also shipped within a week. tiniest was 1.5mm.

Hey Brooke,

I was at Claire's today and they had all sorts of nail stuff! Nail glitter, nail jewels and stickers! I wish I could have taken a picture =\

Our Sally's has a huge selection of jewels.

I've seen people use sticker sheets of the gem and rhinestone ones as decorations for nails.
Target has a lot of those.

Do you have a Michael's? Might want to try one of those.

Rai said...

Oh and go to a local beauty store!

Brooke said...

Thank you all for your help! I think my best bet might be Ebay to get them the cheapest and for as many as I need. THANK YOU ALL!!

Brooke,
It depends on if you want plastic or glass ones. I usually use glass because they look better. Of course in Japan, they are everywhere.

The size goes from SS7, which is tiny, like a kiwi seed, to SS20, which is giant, like a corn kernel. There are "aurora", which have an iridescent sheen, as well as pastels, transparent, and jewel tones. 20 medium sized glass ones go for around $2. I'm sending out the Dinky nails this weekend- would you like some rhinestones too? ;)
