    CND LED lamp?

    It does seem particularly cruel for details of the LED lamp to start leaking after all this time on April 1st of all days... still i'm inclined to believe it is for reals...... https://youtu.be/2nvPyJc_d4s I can see a european trade mark has been filed for the "complete chromatic cure"...

    To cut or not to cut - cuticles!

    This is one of the reason I'm absolutely meticulous about my own cuticle care. Cuticle Eraser every night, regular solar oil + hand cream throughout the day and regular manicures with no cutting. My cuticles are perfect. Thin as possible, really neat and no hangnails, redness, etc. It's the...

    Whatever became of the CND LED lamp?

    Having now done the survey I would agree with this, it did seem a bit like the kind of questions you would ask at the formative stage of deciding whether to start researching into LED technology not what you'd need to know right before you launch a product. :( They originally announced the...

    To tan or not to tan for my wedding day

    If you are fair skin I would skip the sun bed as you don't have enough time to safely build up a tan. best casescenario it won't make any difference, worst case you'll end up with the pinky-peeleys. :eek: To be honest if you are usally fair skinned then I wouldn't bother with a tan at all as...

    Shellac bulb advice

    Swop the bulbs round in the slots to test whether its definitely the bulb and not the lamp that has gone kaput.... sounds like a similar problem to the faulty batch lamps.

    Shellac removal - something's changed?

    I haven't noticed a change in removals but I do dislike the nourishing remover as I find it leaves a sticky residue. If you are unhappy with NR or feel it has changed be sure to report it to sweet squared and cnd as its the best chance of it getting fixed!

    IBX vs Brisa Lite Smoothing?

    Haing trialled IBX over a couple of weeks, I would also say with 2+ treatments I'm finding massive improvements in grooves and strength. It is also great for preventing dehydration and peeling as well as repairing damage. I now look on BL as an instant but temporary fix whereas IBX takes a...

    CND website

    Incidentally most of the cnd videos are published on youtube anyway, you should be able to find them easily enough. However, you will eventually need to register on the cnd site though for all your msds sheets so keep persevering! All CND techs in the UK should be signed up to the cnd.com...

    CND website

    On step 2 If you change the country to United Kingdom it takes away the box for your license number. I just tried it now and it works. If it's not working for you, maybe try a different browser?

    Shellac LED?

    no they are not changing the product... they have said are somehow going to make an led lamp that gives out the same wavelength light as their uv lamp... obviously this isn't the case with current led lamp technology and I'm guessing it's not that easy given the delays!

    Shellac LED?

    CND lamps-can't believe it!

    I don't think the OP was referring to one of the new lamps, but hopefully she will come back to confirm? I'm a member on the Manchester Creative Academy page and there are still frequent posts on there asking questions like... "do you have any bulbs in stock, two of mine have just blown" ...

    Megamix nails. Create your own gel polish colours with eyeshadows, nail polish

    Okay so today I went to use my megamix amaze glaze top coat and I could not get the lid off.. I put a bit of oomph into it and the white cover came off but brush did not come with it! I then realised that the whole lot has set in the bottle and the brush is stuck in there... what! I did leave it...

    IBX Restore & Repair?

    it is, but the point is you also cleanse (e.g. scrubfresh) at the end of the treatment but somehow the nail doesn't get dehydrated... magic!

    IBX Restore & Repair?

    IBX is my least profitable treatment due to the time it takes mainly (although the amount of blotting + cleansing also goes through a fair amount of wipes too!) That said, it is absolutely fantastic for those that usually struggle to wear just Shellac.. Absolutely it is helping me to gain...

    Megamix nails. Create your own gel polish colours with eyeshadows, nail polish

    I'm getting on well with my Megamix but am finding more often than not the colour changes slightly after curing. Not necessarily faded but just a slight shift. Today I did a set with an icy blue polish and they came out a shade warmer! I also found my married to mauve mani faded to a brown...
