    Sounds like an ssl issue. You should be able to select the option to proceed to insecure site at the bottom of that warning on the left. Some ssl certs around the Web are having issues. If you've bought with them before and they have secure checkout you'll be fine to proceed.

    Information To Bring To An Allergist

    Reaction could be down to prolonged exposure. So maybe have a think about any other products you've been exposed to before that flair up as well. Just a thought! Hope the appointment gives you the answers you're looking for!

    ROI - buying nail supplies from the UK

    Right it makes sense. I was looking into getting magpie gel polish and lamp range. We do have an ROI reseller but they don't seem to have the lamp or the full colour range. I've messaged the brand on Insta for their take but got no reply, I'll try again and email them and see what they say.

    ROI - buying nail supplies from the UK

    Heya folks. Been away for a while but looking into getting back to nails. With brexit has anyone made any major purchases from the UK and if so how was the whole customs process for you?

    CND - now an at home nail system

    Agreed, I don't. There's a reason my clients come to me and they sure as hell are not going to buy anything online and do it themselves. It just baffles me that a professional brand would risk untrained people in the country of suing culture to use a product that is meant to be used with...

    CND - now an at home nail system

    I thought we'd been here before, but I guess we didn't see it all [emoji52] I was watching a YouTube channel I follow on hair care when I notice a video I had missed from this girl 5mo ago. Cue in a CND home system the woman says she's been testing. Scroll through the description details...

    Gelish Polygel or Magpie products?

    If you already use Gelish have you thought about using their structure gel if an overlay is what you are looking to offer?

    Gel polish won‘t last

    Tbh I do a very similar prep to yours and I don't have issues. I use cuticle remover with clients when I have to and I've never had an issue with that either. I just make triple sure there's no residue on the nail and I use a prep liquid to evaporate all the moisture. That said obviously with...

    Gel polish won‘t last

    Magpie have their own lamp and so do Cucio. That said I'm almost sure either brand is formulated to cure their gels with the respective lamp. I use Gelish and I know for a fact the gelish lamp is designed specifically to cure gels for their brand. I'd recommend having a loom at this thread...

    Over curing IZ Gel?

    While a great read (and the base of my comment) I don't think it answers the OP's question fully. However If they are using the correct lamp it begs to confirm what I said. Curing during the service probably won't over cure the product to the point it's compromised. What I would add, now that I...

    Magpie Gel Pros

    Hi All, Ran a search and found either old posts or generic "which gel brand' posts with a reference to Magpie. So I'm creating this to get feedback on anyone using the brand atm. I'm a Gelish girl, but feel their colour range is going down the CND" we've 50 different rose pastels" type of...

    Over curing IZ Gel?

    As far as I know you can overcure any gel product. It's more about how far you are going above the recommended curing times I suppose. This is just a guesstimation but I would think when gels are formulated they are so that they can withstand some over curing without compromising its integrity...

    Foils & chrome powders with Gelish

    I use Gelish too. Just got some Magpie foils I haven't tested so It's good to know most work. My only problem is chromes as I don't have a gelish topper that cures without an inhibition layer.

    Best non soak gel varnish?

    You are troll. Not sure what the mods policy is on these cases but if they decide to do nothing well, carry on trolling. Hopefully you get to troll enough threads people will get to know you and start ignoring you. You are also now blocked, so bless that feature.

    Best non soak gel varnish?

    Unless you talk about the product formulation you are not effectively critiquing the product. You basically just threw a bunch of statements from the site and picked them apart. Want to be an expert? Be an expert, but do so with facts, as you said. We are talking about products if you don't...

    Gelish query

    I wouldn't buy it from Amazon for sure. I know that sounds incredibly intransigent and they could be more accommodating with you but Traveller is right, the cost is proportional, you'll have spares and stock you'll eventually use up. Definitely do not buy from amazon, remember you get what you...

    Gel polish and dip powder?

    Just curious are you a trained nail tech? Each brand of gel polish will have different removal times and products to remove it according to formulation. Because gel polish is meant it be removed and laid fresh on natural nails or nail extensions it is part of the service to remove old gel...
