Question Pink polish question - 26-03-09, 02:15 PM

Mornin' all! For my clients that love the look of a custom blend but don't want L&P or gel enhancements; can anyone recommend a pink polish that would cover the natural smile line, yet look like a nail bed? That way, I can move the white polish smile line closer to the free edge and elongate the nail bed.

Thanks for all your help!!!

I just tried it but cant come up with a good colour without mixing a new colour. I've tried layering a lighter colour over a darker pink but no joy. have you tried anything? For my fan shaped nail ladies I usually place the white lower down then apply a pink pearl this seems to deflect the look of the nat nail coming through.

Thank you for your reply. I like the idea of layering. Now you got me thinking... Maybe I'll do an opaque color first, then a sheer pink then the white free edge. Now, I have to go experiment.

Again, thank you!
