    First attempt at tip and gel overlay

    These are really lovely! Your cuticle lines are neat, and polish application looks even. Your gel application as seen on the last pic, looks ever and well filed. Very impressive for a newbie! Good luck!

    Rate my nails!

    Absolutely agree with sianpetersx, watch your acrylic application on zone 1, as this should sit flush with the natural nail. Its a good idea when you're practising to start lower down on a tip or practise nail so when you come to file, you can see more clearly where you are filing and what you...

    Opinions please

    This looks very good for a trainee! On the second picture not sure if it was the light etc but looks like there is a gap on the other cuticle/side wall edge. Make sure you build a nice strong apex too (couldn't see well enough on the pic), as this will give it strength and a beautiful elegant...

    Newly qualified and need opinions!

    Left hand (ladies) looks great - only critique is right hand, white tips look too high up the nail. Other wise a really lovely set!

    Critique me please!

    Totally agree with pure on that. Personally I think your smile lines are too high up the nail, which makes the nail bed look really short. Also its very bulbous where the side wall meet the free edge - the white tip looks wider than the the nail itself. Before you cure gel always check from...

    First ever set of gels with Magneto Gelish

    Ok, well the first thing I noticed was bare side wall of the thumb - ensure you get even coverage of nail. Check all angles of the nail before you cure. The middle finger on the right (clients left hand) looks slightly bulbous again before curing and or whilst filing check from different angles...

    Feedback please?

    I agree with ClaireP be brave and get closer to the cuticle. You really don't want them looking grown out in a week. Lovely set all the same.

    Professional opinion

    I agree with all of the above, however I have one slight critique (but this is what you posted here for!) just watch the area where the side wall meets the free edge as these can look slightly bulbous (see your ring finger). It should be no wider than the nail itself and can make the nail look a...

    Stiletto nail art

    These are lovely! However it is best to submit photos from other angles if you would like fair critique. I really love the flower detail.

    Soon to be qualified, crossed fingers

    I agree, your smile lines need work. If you have been trained like myself, this is the first thing you do in a 3 stage process. I always have slightly dryer white acrylic so its less likely to slide around too much, granted you have to work a little faster with it but its much easier to get a...

    Help with glitter

    There was / is a seller called Purple Gerbil they sell them in little vials, very useful as you can control the amount coming out. These were around 99p each and I bought the holographic ones as these are the best by far. Super sparkley and very eye catching (- I think I have a couple of pics on...

    Can anyone help allergic reaction

    If you are using tips and glue, it looks like (to me) that the glue has leaked onto the underneath of the tip, and has torn the skin!? Have you experienced this? If this is the case, use a minimum amount of nail glue to ensure no saturation to the skin around and underneath. If you use to much...

    CND Shellac genuine bottle labels

    Hmmmm. Still sceptical, any Americanos out there who can help? The back of the bottle had all the right info on the back in silver writing, but you never can be too sure :confused: Thanks so far for the comments x
