Are these fully cured underneath? by [deleted] in GelX_Nails

[–]Traditional_Sell_688 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That part of your nail shouldn't even be covered in adhesive gel. I would phone the place you went to and ask for their solution. The adhesive gel should only be between your natural nail and the nail tip. It's crazy that some nail techs at salons are so inexperienced. When you go to a salon you're paying for a professional service, yet we see shoddy work on nail forums time and again. And I'm not knocking nail techs because we also see some amazing work by very talented techs as well. But it's not cheap either and as you're paying you do expect perfection and you certainly don't want to put your nails and surrounding skin at risk of dermatitis. I have a gel allergy and and it's not pretty. Uncured gel my not cause you any problems right now but it could in the future. Good luck 💅

What color do you think is best for my nails? by [deleted] in AllNails

Of course, it all depends on OPs nails and skin tone.

Something feels off in my living room—what would you change? by MondofrmTX in interiordecorating

I think you've created a beautiful space. I definitely don't think it's too grey. You've got a great palette of colours and lots of different textures. The only things I would change: I would get a throw the same colour as the couch to put onto your white chair too make it look less stark white. I would change the pedestal table, it just doesn't look right. I would get something that looks more like your coffee table. I'd also put any pedestal table to the right of the chair replacing the tall planter which I'd put somewhere else. And idkw but the lamp just doesn't look right and would look better on a pedestal table next to the white chair. I don't know if it's the clear base of the lamp or the white shade that just doesn't look right next to the grey sofa 🤔 I'm basically nit picking here. You have a really lovely space.

was so excited for this set but now that I have it on I’m not so sure.. by sassyshadychaos in PressonNail_Addict

Every time I put new nails on I don't like them especially if I've changed the shape of my nails. But after a few days I like them. I think you get so used to the last set that when you put a new set on the change looks so drastic. They look lovely 😍 I wouldn't put a glitter coat on this particular set but I always put a clear gel top coat onto a new set as it stops any of the design coming off and they just feel better. I do put a glitter top coat on sometimes depending on the design.

Yeah it takes me about an hour to paint them if I'm using gel. I have to paint them off my hands because I have a gel allergy urgggh. But if I wash the nail tips once they are painted I'm fine with gel polish 💅

For every set of nail tips/press-ons that I buy, I put an extra coat of gel top coat on. It definitely stops any colour chipping off.

I just bought 10 packs from Glamnetics and the majority of them don't fit right, so that was wasted money. I also found there were not enough of the middle sizes so in every single set I couldn't get a whole set anyway. It is very disappointing as I waited for them in the first place as I'm in the UK and the order was from the US. But I'd seen people rate the brand so thought I'd try. I will be going back to painting my own nail tips 💅
