Did you pick left because you can only see my right hand or is your guess from looking at both hands?

How do you find it doing the white in the popit? I think that will take me a while yet xxxxx

I did a set of sculpted poppits on myself last night for the first time, i was suprised actually at how easy it was ! you do have to make sure the white is fairly set before you add the pink otherwise it will 'squelch' when you place it on the nail. the only thing i didn't like about it is that because you have to 'wait for the white', it is too set to bond with the nail plate when you place it on ! Are you supposed to pull the pink down over the white maybe ? otherwise this could end up in moisture getting trapped between the white and the natural nail. Hmmm maybe i should put this in a new thread for geeg to answer :lol:

its easy but u need to practise on where to put it exactly and working with big beads....with popits u will not have any shadowing in ur white any more! its the quickest way to do it with tips....but i like to do it sculpt on my hand...xxx

That is exactly what you do. White nice and thin and the pink will run under it and bond to the nail.

Please forgive my ignorance, but I have read through a few posts and because I am very new to the nail industry, i am a little confused.
What are popits??? and T+P???
Im sure there are more, but I cant think at the moment....
Thanks

I picked your left handed from looking at all 4 pictures,
so come on spill the beans are you a lefty or righty :hug:

when you guys talk about applying your own smile lines with popits do you sculpt the white tip on the natural nail and then buff it down until it is nice and thin and then apply a popit over the top or do you apply the smile the inside the popit let it set and then apply the pink?

now im confused someone please help:hug:xxx

you apply the white inside the poppit nice and thin and create the smile line, let it set then put your pink in and bring it down over the white so that when you apply the poppit to the nail the pink is under the white. Does that make sense ?
