First attempt inverted nail application gel
This is my first attempt at the inverted nail application using glitter mixed with clear gel and sculpting pink

once the tip was placed and cured all i did was refine the shape of the free edge nothing else was touched with the file

all i can say is wow wow wow i love it and will now apply to the rest of my nails

looks pretty.

so have you left the tip in place, or have you used the removable mould thingy ?

it will be really interesting to see how long they last.

So did you apply the tip as normal or put the product on the underside of the tip and then apply over the whole nail?....did the product not stick to the tip?.....these things are confusing me now! lol

they are good aren't they !

I to am looking forward to how the last ie lifting etc, but guess the pressure you apply when putting the product on is far great than what we can achieve with a brush

my brain is unable to compute! Think I need to see how you do it lol! So do you put the design on the inside of the tip, place it on the whole nail and cure? I'm repeating myself now but I don't get it lol!
