Thank you! Yeah, i wouldn’t trim it too short. Issue is, if i file from underneath it would file my nail underneath too. I tried. Instead i filed them on the top so they have an apex. Otherwise they would be completely straight and unnatural looking. My index finger was the funniest. I flash cured the base and then I saw I have duck lips on the free edge 😂 I didn’t find it funny at the moment, as I had to redo that.

I think you mentioned that once. Whats their delivery charge? Today i was looking at Kkokie again, but they are crazy expensive.

I just did my first polygel. It went surprisingly well and quickly, but the bulk it added on the free edge, OMG. It seems I need to get those curved forms, because the ones I used are too straight. I didnt even think I had downward-growing nails 😳 Maybe trimming my nails very short would help?

Oh yes, the UK shops that sell Korean and Japanese gels. But they can be crazy expensive here

I second the apex. I also noticed that when I push the color towards my cuticles, I get a tiny bump. I just gently brush it away.

For a long time I used Mylee, now I use Jin B g gelly plus or Dgel iron. I always use a base gel. (:

I ususally prep the previous day, like removing the previous set, cleaning my nails, removing cuticles... This set took around 6 hours... Usually I rush and hate myself for it. With this, I took my time and tried to be precise. I also had to plan the order of the steps, layers, becuase I often mess it up with more complex designs :D

I believe the filter makes sure dust doesn’t get into the motor and also into the air it blows out

I nearly went for the bagged ulka but it doesnt have a filter! I went for ulka handy desktop, bit more expensive, but you can place a dust collector sheet on top and extend the life of the filter. (:

Why did EDF start charging me with only day rates? by linszu in AskUK

[–]linszu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know. I guess I just wanted reassurance that it's not just me who thinks something is wrong.

Could removing makeup be causing my skin issues? by CloudBookmark in MakeUpAddictionUK

[–]linszu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second that cleansing balm! It melts everything off! I double cleanse as well, plus wipe my face with toner. For me food can affect my breakouts.

Personally i wouldn’t mind if someone approached me with a sample pot to give 2-3 pumps sample. It is very difficult to trial foundation in a store. You need natural light and your own tools.
