Hi geeks, the sites not letting me upload my photos in the critique section i done my first ever set of sculpts on my mum last night, the 2 photos are in my more nails folder, they took me 2 hours which i thought was not bad for my first go! although they were very thick and i dont know why cos when using tips they never are this bad lol, have to keep practising, so im off to do my boyfriends mums in a bit
what do yous think? xx

Well done for posting your pics

You are using far too much product in zone 3 and it needs to be flush to the nail, I suspect you will have lifting on those nails within a day or two due to those two issues.
Your smile lines need tweaking as they're not consistent and need to 'smile' more.
Make sure you file the free edges of all nails the same shape.
A file of the sidewalls would slim down some of the 'hips' and give you a better shape, as well as filing in a lower arch.

I don't think you've done too bad a job, if you apply the above points to your next set I think you'll see a big difference and also a better longevity.
