    Gelish “Top it Off” problems

    No, not at the same time. The issue is that one of them is giving me problems so I started using a new one. Then, I realized the bottles look different. Waiting to see if there are any issues with the new one.

    Gelish “Top it Off” problems

    Does anyone know if both of these bottles of “Top it Off” are authentic? Wondering why one has blue letter with white background and the other has white letter with blue background?

    Stain resistant top coat?

    It is not all clients but rather only with lighter colours. This client was the worst I have seen. She said she had scratched the index finger which is why it was worse than the others.

When I first opened them the brush was like this (photo below) I sacrificed an older polish I had, removed the brush from it, cleaned it and thought I could use it for this polish.

    Thoughts on Madam Glam?

    Hi there! I have been using gelish but recently ordered Madam Glam. I haven’t tried it on myself yet but a couple of my clients have said it is chipping a lot sooner than the gelish.

    Why is my free edge so thick?

    Why is my free edge so thick?

    I trained at Ottawa Academy of Beauty and Esthetics but they didn’t show me forms, just tips. I am learning on my own to use forms. I use Young Nails Synergy, Clear Sculptor for the extension and Concealer Pink and Whit to build the structure.
