They look good, est. I might see how mine are in a couple of weeks and try it then. Thanks!

It’s essentially superglue and powder colour. I haven’t broken a nail in forever but I think it’s acrylic “lite” in terms of damage.

I do think quality depends on who is doing it though. I’ve had issues from other salons with the colour cracking but the place I go to now is amazing. S and I go together and the Vietnamese ladies and male manager absolutely love her. She gets to sit in the massage chairs while I get my nails done and they feed her sweeties.

That sounds great! I’ve not broken a nail for ages, but peeling the shellac off has made my nails all thin and papery so I really need to be patient and let the damage grow out a bit. Luckily they grow really quickly. I do feel much more ‘done’ with my nails done.

:look:

They’re so short at the moment, but look far better now they’re hidden under colour!

I did. I’m going to see how it lasts compared with shellac. I couldn’t bear to leave them any longer: they looked awful. Hopefully it’s worth the extra $$ !

Nail stamping again with a couple of gems

I've used the chroma system again and cured the gems into the top coat which seems to be holding

It was really easy to take off the last set as they are in between full on shellac and normal polish

They look lovely Dizz. I find it holds diamantés really well too, and it’s good you’ve got loads of time to position them instead of rushing before your top coat dries like with normal polish.

My thumbs have already chipped and I only did it on Sunday :ella: but they are easily hidden

I just thought I'd experiment with gems as I stopped incorporating them and studs due to them constantly falling off which meant taking it all off due to the horrid holes and marks left which looked awful

If my nails improve this could be a great way forward for me still having pretty nails and not having to redo my mani every 2 or 3 days

They are so good Benny! Are they stickers? Or water decals? I love them.
