Sculpting with gel - tips and hints please?!?

[bubbabinks]

Ive got an assesment coming up after half-term sculpting with gel and my mind has totally gone blank on how to do it.

When I asked other people in class they all had different ways and I didnt get a chance to speak to my lecturer and the next time I will see her will be the night of the assesment and I hope to have practised before then.

This is what I can remember:

Prep nails
Forms on
Apply thin layer of gel cure

Then this is the bit where it goes a bit cloudy!lol
I know I then sculpt the tip, but do I cure it before the pink and if so is it a flash cure or a full cure?

Or do I sculpt tip do pink and then cure?

Thanks geeks

Is the gel that you use THE EDGE?

you can do both ways....sculpt tip first and cure and then pink or pink first then cure then sculpt tip...

i wouldn't do the tip and the pink at the same time as the gel can run into each other.
