The first time iv used Brisa Gel what do you think please?

[nailzandbeauty]

Hi, i havnt done nails for about 1 year as iv been doing beauty so i have been concentrating on that, I only passed in nails in 2007 so only done about 1 year in the nail industry anyway but im going on a creative course in september {hopefully} so i thought i would practice with some Brisa Gel and start doing blending again with natural tips.The tips are creative volicity tips aswell.
My week points are blending thats the main part i want to go back to training with creative to get more advice and help perfecting them.
Please give your honest opinions even if its going to be bad as i would prefer it to be so i can sort where im going wrong.

Thanks zena xx

I'm a fan of natural looking nails and I like these. I must get my Brisa gel out again and have a play around. I'm stuck on L & P :irked:
Well done though. They look great.:hug:

Yor blending looks perfect!

They are not particulalry shiny ... did you use the Finishing Gloss? Now they don't have to have a high gloss .. they look very natural and as you know I am into that ... but for a gel nail, they are not as glossy as I would expect.

Hi geeg, yes i used the system as it stated in the book finishing with high gloss finishing, i thought that aswell maybe they should be a little more shine to them.The only thing i havnt got i think up to now is a girlfriend buffer or is there something else i should or could do to get more shine please?

Hi Zena, I agree that they have a lovely natural appearance. Well done and good luck with your Creative course.

The things which stand out for me re critique is the apex placement or lack of. A few of the nails look almost slightly spoon shaped where apex should correct this. Also the index fingers could perhaps be tapered more at the lateral free edges. Could just be the picture, but this is what I noticed.

Enjoy your course x

I LOVE this look. I think you did a great job!

CND UV Finishing Gloss IS really shiny on its own without any further buffing. I'm sure your class will sort you out on that one.
