Hi guys.

I feel recently that iv noticed I may not be getting close enough to the cuticle when doing l&p. I really like to get I between the cuticle and edge of the acrylic and file the product flush to the nail. However I feel this stops me getting so close. I'm also getting quiet a lot of lifting. 90% of my ladies have almond shape which I do with tips. I was trained to do these with a large bead placed onto the nail and patted down to the tip and add other beads further down the apex if required dependant on length. Iv tried to find professional videos of people creating almond with tips to compare bead placement but I can't.

How do you do yours? Any videos that may help?
 
Well as you know I do mine in 3 balls still, that way I can angle the brush on each one so that when I get to zone 3 I can get it flush to the nail by how I angle the brush..
I think geeg had a good tutorial on here that explains this allot better :D
