Megamix nails. Create your own gel polish colours with eyeshadows, nail polish

[happyfeet]

I've already got the bottle which works fantastically with Shellac for added strength- so much so I'll be removing Brisa Lite Smoothing Gel from my menu. I've just purchased the pot which I can't wait to get.

I've recently brought in a handful of Cuccio Veneers which I love, their colour range is fantastic. I use Cuccio polish and not all their colours are in Veneer yet so MM is great for this. Also there are some fantastic blues, greens, teals and turquoises in Colour and Veneer, but I know for a fact theyll be shelf sitters with only occasional use, but I want them! The beauty is I can buy the polish colours for a fraction of the price and mix with MM and bingo I have the blues, greens, teals and turquoises in a gel polish, without paying out and losing money. Likewise I'm in love with the new Gelish trends, Cuccio have just brought out a similar collection of polishes- so if I purchase them yet again adding them to MM I have the equivalent but at a much cheaper price. I know its not all about money, but business sense tells me I need to think carefully and spend carefully. Megamix has enabled that.

Here's my current collection of Cuccio Colour polish

How do you find the cuccio polishes mix with the MM?. I bought a gold effect polish and you are able to use it straight from the bottle over the top of any of the veneer gel polishes then finish with veneer topcoat which I thought was really nifty.

I too use MM basecoat and MM gel (pot) instead of Brisalite basecoat and smoothing gel and it lasts much longer.

Mixes brilliantly Waffle. The polishes are so highly pigmented (triple) that you keep the true colours pretty much to the letter.

Ooh I didn't know that.

MM beats the socks of BLSG in my opinion and I much prefer applying with a polish brush than a gel brush- I'm a messy moo with the gel brush and can control the product better with the polish brush.

Do you find the Cuccio better than OPI, im finding you need 3 or 4 coats to get any depth of colour but really loving this product.

I haven't used OPI with MM but I have used OPI polish. Cuccio Colour applies like OPI in as much as it's an easy application, but Cuccio Colour covers much better. To give you an idea most Cuccio Colours when polishing have full coverage in one coat. So based on this I would hazard a guess Cuccio applies better with MM than OPI. I apply Cuccio and MM in two or three coats dependant on the Cuccio polish I've used. I tend to add a third very skinny layer of the mix just to make the colour pop. However I was using the bottle, I'll up update if I need to do the same with the pot. Hth Honey xxx

That's really helpful, thanks
This is the gold, looks especially lovely over pastels. You just apply it straight from the polish bottle (no mixing) so very handy.

Here's a set done with China Glaze polish. I mainly have OPI but got a few CG when they were on offer recently.

I find them quite runny and I need to mix the MM quite regularly to keep it balanced compared to other polishes. Has anyone else found this ?

Loving that MM is so popular. My clients are so impressed with it

It's called "Shock Value". Looks especially gorgeous over beige or pink x

hello ive read through all 80+ page, and 3 times it was asked if MM would work mixed with acrylic paint and applies like a gel polish but no one answered, i'm curious to know if anyone has tried this and if it lasted

 

[SianPeche]

Everytime I use megamix on it's own it turns yellow after it's been cured....any ideas why this might be happening?

Thank you

 

[happyfeet]
