Review: Perfect for Blinging Prom Shoes! - I bought this for my daughter to bling her prom shoes, and it worked perfectly! The adhesive holds rhinestones and gems securely without any mess. It’s easy to use, dries clear, and kept all the gems in place even through a night of dancing. Months later, everything is still holding strong! Great quality and exactly what we needed for a sparkling, professional-looking finish. Highly recommend for any DIY or craft project involving gems.
Review: The absolute best glue for bling - This is the only glue I will use for putting rhinestones on my Dancewear outfits. It doesn't leave globs everywhere like that e1000 stuff or whatever does. And a bottle will last you forever. It smells mostly like any glue does and has never bothered me. It dries crystal clear. Besides using hotfix this is the only option for going on rhinestones that actually delivers a presentable result.

A: yep!

**Q: Can Beacon Gem-Tac be use on photos?**
A: It works okay on paper and cardboard so I'm pretty sure it would work on digital photos that are printed out however I don't know how it would respond to a 35mm developed print because there are chemicals on that paper.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tried and True for Rhinestoning.
*by M***E on July 2, 2025*

Gem-tac is by far my favorite glue for rhinestoning costumes. I find the application easy with no mess or smells. The clue applicator lets me control how much comes out. The glue is not stringy or create residues like some other products I've tried in the past. Glue dries clear but most importantly my stones do not fall off the costumes! This glue is my tried and true for dance costumes and skating dresses.
