smile lines - 20-09-07, 08:22 PM

Hi hun,

I also do my own nails but cannot get the smile lines perfect on my own nails any ideas what did you use for yours as they are perfect. I also use gel, i do have an airbrush but find it difficult to use on myself.

Hi Kirsty.

I love the general form (the outline from the top view) and your smiles are lovely lovely

I do not like the view from the side. No lower arch at all and very unnatural looking and top heavy with the free edge coming out very straight and agressive-looking.

You know me, I like the natural look.

i think they look longer in the pics tricky than they actually are they are shorter than the ones you did at the masers hun i will show you tuesday so you can see properly xxx
They look really suuuuuper nice for a second set Very very nice girl *thumbs up*

But i have to say that i thought that they were sculpts and started to feel intimidated since the smile was so crisp and it was your second . When i do gel i never get the smile line to look as sharp as when i would do it with l&p. Moste white gels are to runny, i like it when they are a bit thicker in consistency so they stay in place.

They are indeed fantastic..

I have been looking into starting a Gel course, even though i'm really happy with L&p, just feel I should be able to offer both.

Would you mind telling me which Gel is best for beginners?

I have to dissagree with you here, I dont find them to extreme at all, I would say these are for everyday wear. I would definatly wear these nails. great job these nails are fab!!
