How do you infill if you've used white tips?

Hi

I'm fairly new to this. I was wondering how you go about infilling a client who has gel nails with white tips. Do you just file the tip down in length and add a new smile line using gel?

If you have an efile just carve in new smile and fill with white gel, if your doing by hand then reduce free edge and create new smile line.

Thanks. I haven't got an efile so will try what you've suggested.

I would reduce product, take the tip length down a little, make sure the tip is especially thin, then do a french with your gel as normal.

I wouldn't do the efile bit as you may not be able to match the white of the tip, so you would get a different shade of white. It's better to do the whole tip to be honest, but that's just my opinion.

Depending on which product line you use your white gel may not be intense enough to cover the old smile line so have a practice before you do it on a client just to make sure it's ok.
