    Anyone know what these marks are?

    I have a client with white marks like this, she uses cuticle oil every day and i remove her shellac every 3 weeks so its not caused by removal. I have recently read that cuticle oil should be applied under the finger nail as well as around the cuticle area and rubbed all over the nail. Also...

    Acrylic nail came off after a week

    I would redo for free. If it lifted and came off then i would say something wasnt right with your application, either cuticle left on the nail plate, maybe you forgot to prime, maybe acrylic was touching side walls or cuticle area..?

    Anyone tried Candycoat?

    How does it compare to other brands and does it cover well? Am going to try some to use with acrylics rather than using shellac which is 3 times the cost! Any pics of any nails you have done with candy coat would be great also! Thanks xx

    Advice/feedback please

    So reduce the amount of acrylic around the cuticle and file/ blend to look like its coming from the cuticle... this will stop any lifting is that right? (And correct prep!)

    Advice/feedback please

    How do you ensure lifting doesnt happen because of this? You mention the weight but the apex area will always have a little more product so what do you do to stop this affecting it as it grows out? Thanks :)

    Did I hear someone say holo chrome nails?

    Would be interested in seeing the results. Chrome wore at the free edge after just a few days... so be very interested to see if this pigment is any better wearing.

    Did I hear someone say holo chrome nails?

    Do these not just wear off like the chrome though along the free edge as its the same method being used and so many people.had problems with chrome so im hesitant to invest in this product.

    Need some help with set up, pricing etc

    Defin Definately one of the challenging things being mobile is using what table and chairs people have.... and the angles you have to sit at can be very uncomfortable! A good daylight lamp is a definate as some peoples rooms are very dark.
