hi peeps...I am having problems with blending the acrylic with the natural nail...as I have said before I'm new in the nail business...it's when I'm doing tip n dip, I know you don't resin whole nail, you leave gap at cuticle but you can see where the acrylic ends on the nail ...is this due to not enough white block buffing? I do loads of buffing to try and blend it in though... any help would be great cheers x x x x x x(hope this is not a stupid question:rolleyes:)

i have used tip and dip ... zone 3 needs to be applied very thinly...then you wont have to spend ages blending....remember you don't need any strength in zone 3...nails don't break that far down. Apply it thin and it wont need much blending.
