I have just posted a step by step in the tutorials section of the site under nail art tutorials.

I have not been able to insert the images I have done yet as I need a little help with that!! they are in an unfamiliar format to me at the moment but I will get it done as soon as.

In the meantime, the written instructions are there which should be good enough. Have fun.

The minx nails are a nail covering you can use on both nail enhancements and natural nails, on the fingers you can get 2 weeks from them, on the toes 4-6 weeks. I think they are fantasic and look amazing, I am having a few problems with the free edge peeling back. But this aside they are fab

Hi Guys, I hope you can help me. While reading through this thread there has been mention of an infared lamp. What is the difference between that and the heatlamp I recieved in my kit?

I am jamming out to I'd die for Chris O'Brien and The Beatles.  I'd bleed for Hidden in Plain View & The Early November. My favorite films are Anything with zombies, love conquers all, vampires, or Stuart Townsend

They should be the same thing; infrared is the source/type of heat. If you got a kit from Minx, then your lamp should be fine. =)

Geeg was sporting metallic gold with black leopard spots - I wasn't sure about them at all but they looked brilliant - they do PINK leopard spots as well which are very Katie Price and I know a bunch of teks who will LOVE them!

The secret is the infra-red lamp and the slight stretch over the free edge; I have been told a hairdryer works too but faffy as they will fly off the table .... but once they cool they start to shrink so with the infrared - it keeps them pliable for a long time and if you get any bumps you can just pull them out. I understand many beauty salons have infrared lamps to warm up rooms and bodies for massage... so if you have one - Minx is your Uncle!
