    CND Must haves for starting up ??

    Does this mean that they have delivery of the colours and effects as I have just looked online and the same ones are out of stock? I am checking everyday and Sweet squared cant confirm when they will be in. I cant contain my excitment much longer about placing my order.

    New CND colours/effects

    Hi, I am eagerly waiting for new stock to come in so that I can order some of the new CND polishes. However I couldnt make it to one of the launches so have a question. Do you still use the base and top coat as normal? Also any favourite or popular colours that you can recommend as I will...

    Out of my comfort zone

    I think these look really lovely. I think the smiles are really good. I have only done 1 set using the Brisa gel but am also going to do some practise this week. Are these done using the brush on white or the sculpting gel?

    Help with sculpted nails

    I have read loads of threads and tutorials on here regarding fitting forms which I feel has helped loads (thanks guys) I still seem to be having a problem with a step showing underneath when I remove the form. This isnt too much of a problem to start with, but really shows up after a few...

    Cracked Gel enhancement...Help!

    Hi, Can anyone help? I have had a phone call from a friend, her gel enhancement has split down the middle (free edge to eponychium), she thinks it has cracked all the way down including the nail plate as it was bleeding. It hurts to buff/touch and obviously acetone would really hurt, but by...

    Brisa Gel help

    Hi, I have done a search on here but not sure if I have missed anything.... Anyway, when I had my recent training with CND Im sure I was told not to pull the gel from zone 2 over my white gel in zone 1. However, when looking at my DVD that I got with my pack, Im sure it looks like they pull...

    Performance Tips

    Hi Geeks, I have had all of my training with CND but it looks like using performance tips wasnt included in this. I do have some in my pack so just wandered how to use them. Do they butt straight up to the natural free edge, so that there is no lip. I hope this question makes sense as I am...

    Glimmer/shimmer gel over acrylic

    Hi Geeks, I would like a shimmer/glitter affect to go over my L&P nails. I use creative and notice that they do a silver shimmer Brisa gel, would I be able to use this over my L&P and if so would I then need to use the finishing gloss over the top of this? Oh and the liquid bond between the...

    L&p

    No, these are a new set, but it is a problem that I am trying to sort out, I think i panic about getting too close to the edge, and go too far the other way! lol. Will keep working on it. Thanks for taking the time to critique :)

    L&p

    Hi Geeks, I wanted to try a more natural set. This is CND custom blend powders. I tried to add some yellow and brown shimmer to the nail tip as described on the CND video, but you can see the little flecks of brown in the tip!? Sorry the photo isnt the best, but please give any comments on...

    Custom Blend

    Thanks Gigi, I like the idea of sculpting the whites on after filing the smile line in. I knew there would be a good way, I just couldnt picture how I could do it. Just one more question, would I just use normal nail clippers to cut the white off? Would this cause any breakages etc? Thanks x

    Custom Blend

    Hi Guys, If I did a set of enhancements on a nail biter and extended the nail bed with a custom blend mix, when I come to do the rebalance can I just go ahead as normal, by filing down and reapplying the white over the thinned down custom blend colour? Would this show through the white as two...

    Would this be ok for minxing?

    I also have one of these lamps and have done around 5 sets on myself and my mum and they all lasted around 5 weeks. I only took them off as I got bored with the same toes! I think the official minx lamp has a temperature gauge, so just watch the heat as you cant turn it down and a couple of...
