White Tips & Clear NSI L&P Overlay

[mikey-moo]

Please be gentle with me, this is my first critique! lol... Ok, so I've been practicing for what seems like forever now, and have managed to get my timing down to just over an hour. I think the sidewalls and the shape on a couple are off, and the apex on a couple, although it's not a great angle to see it from, but thought it would be useful for some of you guys to let me know what I can do to improve.

I hadn't intended on uploading a pic just yet, so unfortunately this one was the only one I took! I'll remember to take a few from different angles and stuff in future!

They're white tips (I know, spawn of satan and all that!!! lol) with a clear L&P overlay, using NSI Attraction.

Cheers!

Hiya,

I think they look good but you need to watch the sidewalls a bit. They look a little wide where the white tip attaches to the nail.. That is sometimes the risk when using white tips (hence- I choose not to use them for that reason). Also at the free edge the tips appear to be different shapes/length- some rounded, some squared etc.. The best way to get a perfect set of nails is the exact same nail over and over.

Well done, good luck with it. x

Hiya, first off, well done for posting, I've been here 4 years and never posted in critique!!

It seems you know yourself whats wrong, so that's good!

Only comments from me are, yeh there are slightly 'hippy', sidewalls need to be brought in, remember to come under and up with your file and double check you are using the correct size tips (using them too big is a common fault with white tips), ......and they would look much much better if you reduce the length of the white, it's far to much.

Do that and you will have a lovely set of nails. Well done :hug:

Hey guys, thanks for your comments! I know I've got a bit of a way to go yet with tips! lol. I do much prefer sculpting, but from my experience so far I can't persuade everyone to have sculpts! (I'm quicker at them too, which is the strangest thing!)

I'll certainly take any and all comments on board, though. Cheers for ya help!
