There isn't a BETTER
Popits look wonderful when used with a well-less tip -- also the fastest done this way.
PopIts also look great fully sculpted in the form -- but this is not so quick.
Both last equally well and are equally strong.

can you re use popits and if so how many times can you re use each one?

You know they are .. lots of people are now using them and they are that good.
I did the nails on the video so I can tell you they are that easy WHEN you have practised and learnt how to use them correctly .. like anythng else.
You have to get used to them and master the tecniques. Some do them well. Some give up before they have learnt how to use them and some persevere and become experts.
ON THE SAME PERSON you can use each size about 3 times. After that, the shine is not bright anymore. However I just treat them like tips and throw them away. I can't be bothered to keep track of how many times I have used each size. With the money you get for doing a set in half the time they have been well paid for with each set.

wow they look great. i am new to nails so take quite a while do the popits come with a guide i think i might order some just and have a go on my friends for now until i have mastered it. I am using NSI until I do a CND conversion course can I use the popits with attraction. Prob a silly question but I just want to be sure. thanks

You can use PopIts with any L+P or UV Gel system :green:

I used CND Performance well-less tips in the French white as Sarah so rightly said.
I was doing these nails for a professional photo shoot for the PopIts distributor here in Spain.
To be honest, I did not realise that my business partner was videoing me working. I was doing the model for a still shoot by the professional photographer qnd then realised he was there all the time with his own camera. It was a surprise to me when someone posted it on the site and I did not know it was on U Tube either.
I am used to doing photographic stuff and videos in a more professional way than UTube so I was a little disconcerted to see it. Just call it a working video.
Hi Gigi - i take it you didn't get to discuss fees!:lol:
It's great (though) to see close up how YOU load & apply the popit. I was loading it the other way round and wasn't smoothing it to the sides the way you do
- so maybe that's where my problems lie? Will have a play later and see what happens.

To be honest, I rarely do smooth it to the sides unless there is just too much in the middle. If I use 2 beads (which is also rare) I put the second bead at the eponychium end of the PopIt so it is the 'freshest' where it will bond to the nail plate.

Ooh they look beautiful.
I thought sculpting them in the tip would be the quickest way of doing them but you say the well less tips are quicker. I have some raptor tips - wonder if they would work ok.

I'm sure you can use PopIts over any type of tip.

Due to the thickness of the Raptor tips I would say that using a thinner tip would be better.
I've got some Raptors and also Pro-Impressions, both well less but the difference between the two is immense, the Raptors are very thick in comparison.

Thanks for that - I only got raptors because I didnt really like white tips - but your right - they are pretty darn thick (hence having a full box of them lol).
Might have to get some other white tips.

just quickly watched the video, I have been putting the popits the otherway round, I have been cutting the the tags off and placing that end by the cuticle. Which way round are you meant to do them?
geeg
Judge Gigi-Honorary Geek
The other way .... Alison !!! The rounded end goes at the eponychium
and you trim the 'skirt' off that end too!! I can't believe it was not obvious to you ... :lol:
