hi, im new to the site and was hoping someone could help me out, i am trained in acrylics and gel but havent been having much luck with the products i have been using ( i wont name them) i have been experiencing lifting in about half of the clients i have been doing, i no i have preped the nail bed correctly as i take extra time to make sure of that, i was wondering if anyone could recommend some good acrylics and gels, i was looking on a site and alot of people seemed to recommend ezflow , ibd or brisa gel wot would you recommend.

Welcome to the site

I use Creative Brisa gel. The gel is strong and always gives beautiful results. There are now a good range of coverage gels, colours and shimmers - something for every taste. I'd definitely recommend it. HTH

I am also a Creative fan, I use the liquid and powder (Retention+) and any new lift prone clients that I have used this on, have been amazed to find that the lifting problem has gone, I can honestly say that I have not had any clients experience lifting with it. So yet another Creative product to be recommended.

OMG I love retention+, did my own after my conversion and I've had no lift what so ever, always had it before with previous product. But that could of been application and brush control as well. I've got a lady tomorrow coming in for a full set, can't wait to use my new products on her.

Hiya ...just to save you having to change over systems when you might not have to, do you want to go through your prep with us to see if there is maybe something there that can be tweeked..???

Its a Creative product from Sweet Squared...you have to have trained with them to order the pro products though.

If you're using a reputable company you shouldn't be experiencing any lifting as far as product quality goes. this said, it is all about your nail prep and application. If this isn't right it doesn't matter how great the product is, they will lift. Double check you prep and make sure you're removing all the cuticle from the nail plate
