hi i was wondering with the french peticoat nail tips would you put the tip on the natural nail with the little holes on the actual nail or would you just put the wavy bits on the nail ? and also would it look better if i extend the nailbed with a coverage pink and take the tip abit furtherup on the free edge? sorry if im not explaining very well i just got these tips and dont know which would be easier to do thanks

im also using gel if i just put them on the nail without extending the f/e it will have too much white to pink but it might be alright as they are a decorative tip so might get away with it ?

I would try and apply them as far down the bed and as close to the fe as possible.. Its hard when using tips to get the right balance imo.. but they are very pretty.
I have never extended the nailbed while using tips so i cant help there.. how would that work anyway.. would you apply the tip to the extended gel then overlay??
hmm its been so long since ive used tips and i dont use gel so i cant say.. L&P sculpting i could help with!

good luck with it..

there cute, haven't seen them before,
thg:)
 
Hi

When I have applied these, I have used L&P. Can you bring them down the FE a little and slide a form underneath while the gel cures?

Hope I am explaining ok, the form will act as a removable backing, allowing you to fill the holes without it running thru.

HTH
 
Omg, they are dead cute, whose website did you get them from please:hug:
 
I just got a big goodie bag of free sample tips from Pro Impressions with my first order and there were some samples of these. There's also some that have little hearts cut out into them instead of circles. They are really cute!
 
I read this post and had to go searching. I just bought some from atyourfingertips + a few other goodies :)
