thank god nor could i i thought i was doing something wrong

I added the pic, but for some reason it looks like its my avatar pic!!
HELP!!

Maybe we are both being daft, you been in the garage on that wine already?

Anyway you could make it a little bigger hun, so we can see it properly?

This is the first time I've done this so lets see if I'm doing it right.
Go onto Nail Critique, click on new critique, add title and then browse the 'image you want to have critiqued' and then do the rest. Is this right or am I going completley wrong??

Sounds right to me!

I'll go and have a quick look, be back in a mo!

Heather had problems posting her pics...
she emailed them to me and I've attached them to my reply

I forgot to add as well, I did them on myself, which is pretty tricky!! I won't show you my right hand! lol!!
Thanks Sandi for the help, you're a star!

For your 3rd attempt I think you've done very well... what did you use?

Closeup the smile lines need more work, but from further away they look ok, however, as this is your 3rd ever set of L+P I'm pretty impressed

They're not all uniform in shape/apex but they are in length.

You seem to have pretty red/sore nail beds, be careful with you filing sweetheart, it's something we've all suffered with at some point or another, it's hard to get the right filing technique when we're doing our own nails.

Do you have a nail trainer you could practice on? They make a fantastic training aid, I use mine quite a bit to perfect techniques and to try out new ideas.

With more practice I think you'll be producing very good nails, keep up the good work

Thanks for your comments. My nail beds are pretty sore from the last attempt, which was dreadful (before I had a days practical). My fingers were killing!
My smile lines aren't great are they, but you should have seen them before, they were straight across! haha! I just need alot more practise, but the problem is I need more hands to practise on, as I'm doing a home learn course!!
I'm using Creative Perfect Colour. I find them brill, and not too runny.
I've bought a cheap practise hand, but when I try to soak off the l&p it goes really weak. I think I'd better invest in a new one! lol! The only thing is with the hands is that the nails don't grow, so I can't practise infills or rebalancing.
Thanks again for all of your help and advise, it's really appreciated,
Heather

excellent for your 3rd attempt hun, i would be well chuffed!! keep practicing! as for your sore nails, i still do it and only on my left hand, i think its because i'm way to heavy with the file on it! keep up the good work! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for the positive comments!! It all helps.
