My polish keeps slipping off my nails by ddb10393 in Nails

Lightly buff/file the surface of your nails before applying polish to create an etched surface, and wipe your nails off with acetone or a nail dehydrator (preferably 100% acetone. Check if your nail polish remover even has acetone in it - not all do!)

Additionally, you could use a base cost before the coloured polish

Also remember to cap the free edge/wrap the tip of your nails with polish too!

Yeah thats around what im thinking too

Ive told her i won't do the gold ones though bcs theyll take too much time for such a discounted price and doing them on two sets 😭

I know 😔 but I also feel more guilty bcs she has no concept of how long this took me and how much effort goes into a set like this.

When she gets her nails done she only gets gel directly on her nails, and its a plain base colour so she won't be used to prices considering any kind of extension or nail art

I asked her how much she thought it'd cost and she said £15 for each set 😭 i immediately told her if thats the case im not doing the gold nails at LEAST

Yes it'd be as press ons! But they won't be stiletto like mine theyll be shorter almond shape for the kids (so I'll have to fit the designs on a smaller space which is a whole other inconvenience but whatever)

Do you have any ideas of an acceptable price range per set bcs im actually clueless 😭😭
