    Gels breaking after a few days-please help!

    It sounds like you have not built strength into the nail, maybe not enough gel at the tip too. Is it a white tip? You need to allow extra curing time if it is. You should be using a builder gel. The sprays she uses should not affect the nail. Hope that might help.

    Gelish or Gellux

    Gelish has loads of colours 94 + I think. However Gellux is cheaper and does really last well for at least 2 weeks, but usually 3. New colours coming soon. Gellux training is not too costly and once you have learnt how to apply then that knowledge can be used with Gelish, Shellac and .. all the...

    Would you be happy with these?

    Look good. Maybe a little too long as some seem to be crossing over, which could be that the natural lash can't support the weight of the false one.

    Question about gel viscosity

    You seem a bit confused. A Tip applied to nail needs builder gel to create strength. If you applied just Gelish for example, the nail would have no strength and the tip would not last. You would also have a flat nail as you cannot build structure, apex etc with Gelish. Gelish can be...

    Shellac, OPI Gelcolour, Gelish or what?

    Hi Geeks Well nobody has mentioned this so far so here goes.... GELLUX very easy apply, you apply thin and build up usually only two coats of colour needed. The clear base is also a top coat, so dual purpose less cost. Prep and wipe is great never clouds the nail, again dual purpose...

    To all waxers out there..

    Skin can be a bit sensitive due to hormone changes so personally I would shave off in the bath. Lol you don't have to look just feel your way round. Don't worry about the labour part, midwives have seen it all before and more no doubt and really by that time you really won't care.

    Eyelash removal and infills

    Yes use remover on the little pink sticks and work down the lash. It will fall off and then carry on as normal. Prime if you use it and apply new lash.

    The Cheapening Of Shellac

    Where was that quote on the lamps being an additional sale? Its true for heavens sake a 36w lamp will cure it doesn't matter if it says Ezflow, Gellux, The Edge or anything else. Sometimes I get the feeling a few people are just that little bit up their own b*****. Sorry guys we're all trying to...
