    Nail crystals - glass?

    Hi Keen to know if you use cheap eBay gems (1000s for £1) or actual glass gems? I wasn't impressed with cheap eBay ones, they went dull! Where do you buy your flat back gems? Are they made of glass? Do they need to be actual Swarovski or is this a con/gimmick? What do they usually cost...

    Durability accross systems?

    Hi Currently use a hard gel to apply my own nails (with forms). Servicing my own hands takes SOOO much longer with this system and I also find that gel needs to be built up more for strength (as I now work in an office and they are under constant strain). I have just done an acrylic set and...

    Adult braces: cost update

We have talked about and planned funerals and I guess I feel like my life is on hold waiting for the inevitable, yet never really knowing if its unnecessary worry it that it might not happen tomorrow or the next day. I...

    Brisa vs Gellux hard gels

    Hello, Looking for opinions on the gellux hard gels. I purchased a kit a while back and firstly I think the pink is a horrible colour, and secondly I can't get the gels to make ribbons? What other hard gels are people using? ShallI move onto CND Brisa? Thanks :O)

    Anyone heard of ICON UV/LED polish?

    Heya, I purchased this kit a year ago in May. Love the durability of the product, doesnt chip or flake off. Although I too have issues trying to soak it off, have sat with fingers wrapped up in foils for ages even after I break the free edge and buffing over the nail and they still wont lift...
