You dont need to do any blending of the seam with a french white tip, all you need to do is take a white block and gently remove the shine off the whole tip.

As for tips with a well or no well i guess its down to personal preference and what works best for you. Personally i found when using white tips the ones with a well in left a slight shadow.

I cant remember what make the white tips was but i had some with no well that had a deep smile, lovely C-curve and was ultra thin and as far as working with a white tip goes they was a dream to use.

So once you have done a thorough prep of the natural nail place your tip and all that is needed then is to remove the shine.

Hope this helps

I like well-less because there's no fussing with them.
You don't need to trim the well, or file it smaller.
You don't have to worry about a 'seam' that is like a shadow...
You put them exactly where you want them.

As far as i know there are NO white tips that require blending...just removing the shine.....and prep must always be done thoroughly.x

CND Performance tips for me too, they are the best tips that I have ever used and I do hate blending tips!! I know we all have to sometimes but I love these tips!
