    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...
