Brilliant!

I'm sure that this would be a time consuming way to use poppits (which, they were intended to save time)
BUT for those not very good at shaping stilletos by file, or not very good at shaping a nail in general..... this is a very good way to get the nice shape that they want and to perfect the 'stilletto' before application.

Good job.

it is very fast compared to normal sculpting

I find this to be very quick and not time consuming at all --I can do either way but for a simple deign like this and if you want an arched nail and not a flat stilletto this works well.Some people like a curved nail and not a straight one,personally I like the arch and don't think it looks like a parrot beak.
thanks for waching and all the comments--something for everyone,eh?
