    Gelish, Sheek White chipped and off white colour

    Before you apply your Gelish colour, turn the bottle upside down and wave it from side to side. If you notice your product isn't going on properly, try cleaning your brush with a small amount of cleanse and dry it off on a piece of couch roll. This will really help the bristles fan out and the...

    Shellac peeling - stressing

    You've answered your own question there... I like that!! :lol: I always explain why I'm using my Scrubfresh. I tell my client that her nails need to be temporarily dehydrated to get the best adhesion. I just nicely tell them to be careful not to put their hands in their hair, up to their face...

    Shellac peeling - stressing

    Chlorine can affect them, but in my experience I've never found it to be an issue. Your 10 year old may have flaky nails (most kids do) If the nail is flaky, the nails will still flake regardless of whether there's product on them, so it's not the Shellac that's peeling off, but her own natural...

    Shellac peeling - stressing

    Can I ask what lamp you are using? CND Shellac will only cure in the CND lamp or the vintage Brisa lamp. The Brisa lamp isn't a 5 finger curing lamp, so you'd need to put the thumbs in separately. (also make sure you give your Shellac a good shake before you apply it). If you are using the...

    Gelish peeling problems!

    Wrinkling usually happens when the product is applied too thick. Some colours have a different consistency to others, so you'll find some will need two coats and others will need three. Just make sure the coats are nice and thin. If you are using the Gelish 18G LED lamp, then the problem...

    Gelish changing colour!

    Oh.. that's a considerable difference all right!! Has your client been away on holidays by any chance? (strong sunlight will fade pink colours quite fast) I don't have that particular colour myself, I have a good few pinks, but luckliy this won't happen with them all. You should contact your...

    Gelish peeling problems!

    I've had some polishes for more than a year and they are still perfect. How you store them is important though and they could over-heat in the boot of the car, especially in the last few weeks as the weather is warmer. Gelish is a thin polish and it's perfectly fine to apply 3 layers on some...

    Gelish changing colour!

    When you say it's changed colour, do you mean it's faded? Unfortunately pink colours have a tendency to fade, it's the same for other brands of UV polish. To avoid this, try applying a layer of simple sheer over your pinks. HTHs

    Gelish peeling problems!

    It's possible the heat in the car has affected the polish yes. Do you have the bottles covered while in the car? Your Gelish should be stored in a cool dry place with a maximum temperature of 60C/140F and kept away from light. Also, what lamp are you using. Is is a UV lamp? If so, when was...

    Gelish Carnival Hangover stained client's nails

    I've never heard of this myself. Gelish takes 10 to 15 mins maximum to remove from the nail. If you wrapped and left them for well over 15 minutes and found it was still stubborn to come off, I can only assume the foundation was applied too thick. Your foundation needs to be nice and thin, this...

    Gelish colours for the older client?

    Very true. These are the colours popular with my clients, but yours may be different. Your service provider will let you know the most popuar colours, so don't be afraid to ask when you place your order. The very best of luck by the way. I used to rent a space in a hair salon and it was the...
