If you wanted to use a Vinylux matching colour over your Shellac. would you need to then apply Vinylux top coat? What would happen if you didn't apply the top coat?

No I don't scrape, the shellac lifts off and any left I just help off with an orange wood stick and then use a pad soaked in nourishing remover to get any thing that's left off.

I have found recently on a couple of clients that some of their nails have white patches on them after removal. I have a feeling they aren't applying solar oil between services and this is the cause. I would like to know if you all agree or whether it could be something else. I use the complete...

Is there anyway we can see chloe's examples if we aren't able to go to s2? I live in Birmingham and Ellisons is my nearest distributor.

They look lovely. Does anyone know if you can get mica powders that don't give a pearl/shimmer finish? I'm after the colours you can get ,but want a matt finish.

Sorry, have now read rest of thread and you answered my question about most of your clients having shellac removed by you.

Can you explain how they give you a bigger profit margin on the service? If they are returning to have their shellac redone, surely you would remove it and they wouldnt do it themselves before they see you.or am I wrong?

I thought that was what you meant and I am CND trained, but just can't seem to register on the website, it won't recogonise my phone number & postcode for some reason ! Have emailed them but had no reply.

I want to ask, when you mention education for CND additives are you getting this from the CND website or finger fixer? The reason I ask is I have tried so many times to register on the CND website to access education etc with no joy.

I thought that, but it does allow you to choose UK for the country. However, this could still be why. It would be a shame if we can't use it in the UK , i was interested in the education section.

Have tried loads of times to register as a pro on the CND website. But every time I enter my details, it keeps saying my postcode and phone number are invalid! I have tried entering then in everyway I can imagine and not got anywhere. I have emailed CND, but after a week still have not had a...

Can I be cheeky and ask if u could send me a copy as well? [email protected] Thank you

Ooh thanks. Just had a look and would love to get one only I am mobile so don't need the rack. I have emailed S2 to see if you can just order them on there own. I have done my own like most of us, but I this looks more professional.

I did know you could get pre-prepared shellac colour pops, where exactly are they on the sweet squared website?

I have looked at all the threads and I really want some pastel colour mica's , but abit confused where to get them from. Some are saying be careful of additives in them / coarseness etc. Can you tell me where you got yours from as you mention a pale pastel pink mica. Thanks

I know what you mean , but I can remove these if they occur quite easily. These are like hard little spots.

Bulbs are all ok, checked again yesterday. May base coat is fairly new and the brush looks ok, but will check it. no , small extension lead & lass than a year old. It doesn't happen to all my clients, so it must be something I to do with their nails that I am doing. Thanks for trying to...

Yes, using soapy water. No, putting on a thin layer of base coat. Using CND recommended lamp. yes only curing base for 10 secs. I do really check the nail to ensure previous shellac, especially base coat is all off.

I have a new client that has Psoriasis on hands. Will she be ok using the CND Lamp I use for Shella?

I am finding on some of my clients that I get little hard lumps/bits under the shellac. These are only noticable after I put the first colour coat on and it is really frustrating. I use cuticle away, then a metal cuticle pushie followed by a curette. Shrub fresh etc. I presume its either...
