Hey Geeks

Is there any wise owls out there who could please shed some light on this for me....

I use Shellac & Gelish...love them both!

I sometimes find some of the Gelish colours seem to apply a bit thinner than others and these tend to be the ones that by the time I've applied the colour to the 4th and 5th nails and just about to put them in the lamp to cure.....the gelish on the first 3 nails appears to have shrunk back away from the free edge (so the free edge isn't sealed...if that makes sense) :irked:

Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this and how I should remedy it.

It doesn't happen with all my gelish colours and it never happens with Shellac.

I'm confused :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance

Hi.. I don't use Gelish, but have heard others mention, you need to dry brush your base to remove the tacky layer and this will stop the shrinkage.

HTHs :hug:
