Hello skin geeks! I wonder if anyone can assist? I have a friend who has very pale white skin but is now suffering from vitiligo on her face. Large patches around her eyes. She has tried lots of makeups to no avail and wonders if there are any miracle makeups out there? Thanks so much in...

Hi geeks I'm about to place an S2 order and have a question in relation to the two Mundo instrument and tool disinfectants. Until now I have been using the Rapid, ready to use product which is very convenient but as I use so little of it at the moment, I'm finding that I have to change it...

Hi Geeks Hoping someone will be able to assist. Up until now, I have only ever used and offered Shellac 'as it is' i.e. as a colour with no added extras (glitters, additives or the such). This is purely down to lack of confidence/experience I think. I do however feel that I'm ready to up the...

Dear all I wonder if you can help. I am a SUPER SCARED bod who desperately wants to try a Hollywood wax but am simply too terrified (for reasons of pain and embarrassment!). I've read lots of info on here about Kim Lawless trained waxers being the best of the best and wondered if there were any...

Hi geeks A friend has asked me to find a salon/therapist in the St Andrews area (as near to Balmullo as possible) that is qualified to apply Shellac and possibly Brisa Lite smoothing. They have looked on the lovecnd locator and there is nothing showing nearby. Appreciate all help! Thank you all x

Hi Geeks Wonder if anyone can assist me with using that gorgeous little zebra patterned polish case that we were given at the CND event. I realise that one side of the case is for storing polish bottles but I cannot for the life of me figure out what the other little section (and specifically...

Hello again all Ok, since qualifying in Level 2 Beauty therapy, the ONLY treatment I have provided is Shellac (I have trained in this too). Now, when I was training in manicure at college, we did the whole 'file, apply cuticle cream, soak in a wee bowl, cuticle work, polish etc etc' routine...

Hello Geeks It has been a LONG time since I last visited (all thanks to my 'other job' and horses being confused with cows but that's a whole other story!). Anyway, I have a question that a client posed to me today; I had applied a french Shellac on her and after around ten days, she...

Dear Geeks I wonder if anyone has experienced what I have on a few occasions.. Basically, I've found that a couple of my Shellac colours seem thick and the brushes 'unforgiving'. Now, I do believe that in the instance of Masquerade, this is entirely my own fault for painting far too slowly...

A friend and client who I have recently converted to Shellac has just messaged me with this photograph that she took of her afternoon read. Just look at the wonderful product that OK magazine are loving for nails. ;-) But of course, we all knew that already x

And Hollywood or Wildfire?! I simply don't have the cash flow to buy all the colours right now but I know that I do need a nice red. I have a client who is wearing black and gold to a party on friday and I wondered whether Hollywood would be a good colour for her to choose? Masquerade has also...

I'm just doing an S2 order now and am trying to decide whether to order cool blue or Mundo sanitising hand and foot spray. Any thoughts anyone? x

Could anyone tell me if the magis gel foil wraps (500pk) which are listed as 'fingers' can also be used for toes? Thank you all in advance x

Dear Geeks I usually only ever buy anything I require for Shellac services from S2 however I am in need of one large bottle of Solar Oil which I saw for sale on Friday at my local Hair and Beauty wholesaler. I just wanted to check that they are in fact permitted to stock and sell Solar Oil and...

On thursday of this week, I had the incredible pleasure of meeting and being taught by our very own Geeg (Gigi). I've been struggling to find the words which would adequately express my gratitude but here goes... I have to say that I was somewhat apprehensive on my drive to Leeds (I was going...

Well, I finally bought some self adhesive silk strips in order to repair a badly split thumb nail of mine. Well!!! What an absolute comedy of errors it turned out to be!!! I wish you'd all been around to watch me lovingly cut a sensible sized piece and then be completely unable to separate the...

I just wanted to post an enormously gushing thank you to Sweetsquared (Kelly in particular) for being simply too wonderful for words. Some of you may remember my epic fail on Saturday where I damaged the mirror insert of the lid on my CND lamp? Well, the equally wonderful Gigi suggested that I...

So, further to my inability to remove all traces of base coat, the rubbish French and ruined lamp lid debacle, I went on to paint my lovely neighbours fingers and toes tonight. Goodness only knows how but I managed to not top coat THREE, Yes THREE of her fingers and only realised when I used the...
