Hi guys,

3x Flawless
1x Soft white
tiniest amount of Melting Pot
tiniest amount of Quartz.

Hey there Sheryl,

nice colouring (on the pink)

Smile lines are good and consistent

Only downers are sidewalls - some look a bit fan,
and the whites are not all consistent in length

Overall - pretty wicked

Yep the whites are out, on a couple I placed the smileline just a smidge too low and the lengths of the nails are out.........(I was doing the traditional nail tech thing of 11pm at night and thought I'll fix em later, never got round to doing it lol).
How do I fix the fanning side wall?
When looking down the barrel they are okay and when looking from the eponychium down to the free edge they are okay, it only seems to be fan shaped when looking from the bird's eye view (and in photos it stands out).
HELP ME

Photos will always highlight even the smallest error - I hate photos of my own work lol

Make sure you draw you abrasive straight down the sidewall - look up the finger, not the product to determine straight!!!

also when finishing make sure you have the whole nail nice and tapered from apex to sidewall, and the same from eponychium to free edge, otherwise it will have bulges

hope that helps
