I think it could be brush contamination - same thing happened to me. To find out for sure, dip it into some monomer and wipe your brush on a wipe or whatever you use and you'll see brown marks where you've wiped.

were they actually brown, or had they just yellowed? were you able to buff off the discoloration? if you were able to buff it off it was most likely staining from something the client came in contact with (tanning lotion, dye, cleaning products, etc) you can usually buff off yellowing caused by tanning beds but I've never had a problem with my Attraction yellowing after tanning. if the discoloration is throughout the product and can't be buffed off its most like a contaminated brush!

Hi,
Do a Bead test on a piece of kitchen paper, look at it when set, if it has a brown ring around it...then it is brush contamination..if not then it must be staining by a product the client used. Did you try buffing it off???
Lotsa luv x :hug: x

sometimes it really happens, that black goes a bit brown and red goes a bit orange. it depends on acrylic. I`ve tried a lot of different acrylic and i can say that more than half of them, that are being sold right now have these problems. Now i use only NFu oh acrylics. They are really the best. Everything stays in original colour
especially when you mix them with acrylic gel. then it stays super...

Cheers
