When doing L@P i rarely get that ball shape(you know when you dip your brush into the liquid then into the powder) mines looks more like a flatten ball! HELP!:eek:
 
Thanks for that i read it, gonna give it a go in the morning.

Who did you train with and what products are you using?
Are you still training?
The more we know the more we can help you hun x
 
I'm doing a nail tech course at Redbridge College one day a week 9.30am-12.30pm i wished it was longer, anyway we are using NSI spa aroma free, i finish in July 08.
 
I work with odorless acrylic and with my system (OPI Clarite) you have to work much drier. Maybe try a brush that holds less liquid. Of course follow the advice for your system, but it sounds like the bead (ball) of acrylic is too wet.:)
 
I think you may be right, the acrylic is too wet cos it just swims on the nail, gonna pratise making it a bit drier.
 
maybe try a smaller brush

acrylic should not swim on the nail as it will touch the skin and cause lifting

maybe try a smaller brush
just what i was going to say...smaller brush less liquid bead wont be so wet ...


good luck with it all and keep practising hun xx
 
i used to buy nsi products, but after using creative nail design i will never go back, its great you should try the sample packs.
 
As long as your mix ratio is correct, it doesnt matter if its not a perfect ball shape, just practise your consistancy.
 
Your right about the lifting part, thats what kept on happening to the nails, i'm using a big brush gonna try a smaller one.
 
How do i go about getting sample pack?
