Chasing Shellac Smile Line

[cookiemonster]

Hi

just recently trained with shellac, tidying cream puff smile line with dsperce and small brush which looks great, however I find that the dsperce is bleeding/staining the white I'm removing over the nail plate. Any advice on where I'm going wrong. Hence the title it's as tho I'm chasing the white up the nail plate towards the eponychium trying to remove it.

I'd say your brush is probably too wet! Try doing it with a dryer brush see if that makes a difference

I agree... Sounds like your brush may be too wet... It should be slightly damp... Also make sure if you are tidying your smiles with a gel brush you need to have applied a pink of your choice, otherwise you will remove your base coat. You will have no problems at all if you do it that way.

Yep, I agree, it sounds like your brush is too wet with the Dsperse, just work a bit (or a lot) drier and this should make all the difference.

I don't think the Romantique is being removed, just the sticky layer of the Romantique. Just to be sure, check to make sure all your bulbs are working properly.

Try using a dry brush to tidy up with. Also, I sometimes use the corner of my dry orangewood stick. HTH!
