    LCN Gel nail Products.

    Lcn has different systems. Their three step system is not self levelling, but they do have others that are. Bondique, Fibrique, One component are all Lcn gels that self level. Its a great line, I say give it a try. Their catalogue will explain the differences between the different gels! HTH!

    Learning to do gel nails - best products - canada

    I am in Canada and use enVogue. I was previously a diehard LCN fan and find the products very similar, but en Vogue is cheaper. They also offer an education class, so you would learn the proper steps to using their product. Their nail techs are very in demand here in B.C., hope this helps!

    Sugaring

    I went for a bikini wax apt, and the technician asked me if I had tried sugaring. She did most of the service with regular wax, then gave me a demo with the sugar, on a small strip at the top of the bikini area. I was sold after the demo, and she explained the difference while doing the service!
