    LED UV lamps

    HARMONY makes a gel called "REVEAL"and it can be cured in a LED light or in a UV light. This is a very nice gel, very similar in consistency to the Brisa gels. I picked up a Master kit for around 100.00. It is very good value for your buck. Right now LED lights are very expensive and new. I...

    EE method to flatter far apart eyes??

    You definitely don't want to elongate the eyes so you should avoid giving her a cat-eye lashscape. You want to create a doe- eye effect but move the longest lashes to just inside her pupil area, not over it. You want it closer to the nose.This is tricky b/c you can't put long lashes on those...

    Presto LED Gel

    Currently I am using a gel by Harmony called REVEAL. This gel is designed to be cured using a LED light but it can also be cured using a 4X9 watt lamp. I have tried it in a LED and it does warm up a bit but in the 4X9 there is no heat spike at all. The gel moves beautifully and the white is a...

    Thick and full of volume lashes

    After you have lashed everything you can see, gently tape back the lashes you have lashed with detacked paper tape and then lash all those lashes you see with about a 9 mm in 0.15 diameter. Remember if they are new new lashes, then save them for the relash as you don't want to stress those...

    When lashing how do you keep your tweezers clean?

    Alot of stylists will use acetone and just leave them in it as they have another tweezer to use while the other one is 'soaking'. If you are going to do this, you need to make sure you wipe the tweezer perfectly dry before using it. A few lashers will snap off the fuzzy end of a microfiber...

    NSI Balance Coloured Gels

    Kate, I LOVE the NSI colored gels. They have great coverage and lots of awesome colors to offer your clients. You can also mix the colors to come up with your own unique custom colors. The only thing I didn't like was that they used to have the gel in clear pots but they have changed them all now.

    Blink & Go Lashes from NOUVEAU

    Master30, I think that that is terrible the way they are handling this! If it were me, I'd pull the plug, sever ties with Nouveau and get re-established with another lash company that supports YOU. There are lots of other options out there, just make sure you do a bit of research.

    en vogue French White

    Hey Gigit I have used some of the gels from the Brisa line but I have not tried the clear gel as I have heard a few people say that it is 'cloudy' and not a crystal clear. Do you use the clear Brisa and what is your opinion about its clarity? I found the natural opaque pink to be too pale so I...

    Mobile tech's: how do you carry your brushes?

    If you do a search you might find directions posted by Nailzoo on how to make your own handy dandy brush holder. He actually has a tutorial on how to do it. You could use a tin school pencil case because it's unlikely that you'll find the same one Nailzoo has ;) I like it because you can wipe...

    Why were my fingers and nails burning?

    I think that it also depends on the amount of photo initiators in a product. I know of a few gels that get extremely hot when exposed to a uv light source even when they are applied ever so thinly.

    What do you hold your lash kit in?

    Since we have 2 lash rooms we just stock each room with supplies needed so nothing has to go back and forth. It is a real timesaver.

    Lash Starter Kit - Do I need a sponge?

    I would caution working from the pots as you shouldn't be touching other lashes as you could be contaminating them if using the same pot for all clients. I have worked from the sponge but I prefer to use other methods. I find they bounce too much on the sponges.
