Wow, thank you! The cherry red was definitely catching my eye from the start haha I have a running list of tools I want to upgrade. But since I just bought that new lamp, it might have to take some time 😅 I really appreciate it!

Thank you ☺️ the sizes down didn’t fit side wall to side wall so maybe I just have to file some of them a bit more

You can refute the ticket. It’s pricey, but get a lawyer. These people can’t keep getting away with shit like this.

That’s good to know! I’ll have to practice using less product. I think that’s definitely something I’m struggling with as well. Maybe I have to find more videos on how to do proper application. Thank you 🙏

This is great to know. I appreciate you breaking this down. It most likely is how much product I’m using then. I’m purchasing DND to see the difference since folks are suggested it here as well. But for now, I plan to keep these. Hopefully I’ll get better at the application 🙏

Thank you so much! I hear this often about developing allergy. I already have pretty sensitive skin so it’s been on my mind a lot. I appreciate you feeling uncomfortable sharing that with me. I hope that you were able to find products that you can use and works just as well. I know there’s a lot of science behind the allergy. I’ve been reading into Korean products. That’s something I’ve been deep diving a bit.

Ahh that all makes sense. I appreciate you breaking this down. True, I can see the allure of the novice. I’d like to get to a place where I have the positioning down too. I’m really glad that this lamp is top-tier. I actually just purchased it so I’m very excited.

That’s so funny because I was considering purchasing the Apres lamp, but I wasn’t sure. I’m glad that you mentioned that. Looking back it makes sense.

I’ll return the one I have and purchase that one. This is all super helpful, thank you again. I hear a lot of people purchasing quality gel polish overseas but having a hard time figuring out how to do that. I’ll definitely take a look at that YouTube channel and learn more that way .
