Entity Warm Pink

Hi all.

Had a play with my sample of Entity Liquid & Powder.

What do you think.

Do you think the colour is a good match for my skin tone etc.

All critique appreciated.

Thanks.

Okie dokie, since you picked the "give it to me straight" option, I'll give you an in-depth critique.

Length-4 (Very good length, but from this photo looks as if thumb is longer than the rest. Could be the angle though.)
Shape-3 (Good shape overall, just maybe a wee inconsistent.)
Sidewalls and edges-1 (It appears you have flooded the cuticle area and sides a bit and that the product is already lifting...unless these are a few days old... In either case, there's some lifting that looks to be caused from touching the skin.)
Apex Placement-2 (Apex appears to be a bit flat, at least on the thumb since that's the only apex I can see clearly.)
Smile Line-3 (Good, appear to be consistent, but would have gone a bit deeper with this nail shape.)
Use of Color-3 (Pink looks a bit too pink, but then again, I'm not a fan of very pink pink, so that could be a matter of personal preference.)
Originality and design I didn't rate because they don't really apply, sorry.

Overall, the nails are pretty good, but there are a few points that need a bit of attention (touching the skin, apex placement). Good overall shape and your lines of light are very good. Just a few swipes of the file would fix any slight inconsistencies.

I've never used Entity before, is this their basic pink or an intense pink?

Hope this is helpful,
Jess

Actually NO, I don't think so.

I think you look like you have extremely high blood pressure!! Sorry love, I do not like that colour at all.

i just think its masks the nails too much....if you know what i mean...

stick on nails cover all the nail and so hide everything natural about them....its the same kinda look....

i love coverage powders and gels don't get me wrong but i do like to see real nail showing through in zone 3...like makeup...it should enhance the skin, not cover it all up.

i had a chat via pm to sam and put her right on the colour.

the pink shes using in the pic is a coverage pink thats meant to be used in combination with the regular pink to produce a masking effect for bitten or damaged nails. its a sort of concealer that goes on before the regular pink.

its more or less on par with the creative flawless pink. not that gorgeous on its own, but does wonders when its used in conjunction with the right additions and method.

Hello,

The Nudite powders are "concealer" powders and are used to either hide flaws on the nail bed or to create an elongated nail bed! The Warm is really tough to use, it tends to be too dark..the Cool pink is what I use on most people....you can actually add some of our regular pink to the Warm or Cool to change it up too.....the drier the bead the more coverage and it should be tapered up to the cuticle area....this powder is not to be used alone....

This is nowhere near the quality of work we are used to seeing from you Sam (that's a compliment btw lol )

It's been said many times,but if it ain't broke don't fix it .

Good on you for trying it out,at least you know first hand.

And for me it's not just the colour,they are no where near the same standard as you usually produce.

Either get some product training with them or stick with what you know

Thanks for posting,big xxxxx

Not a favourite shape of mine,(bit too pointy iykwim) although it is down to personal preference; I also didn't think the colour was very good although having read the thread now it sounds as if a full coverage powder was used over the whole nail here so that's why!
