Erica your nails look great!!!! I think the glitter tips are awesome. I love Gelish much better than Shellac. I sold almost all my Shellac. It is a good product but the colors of Gelish are so amazing.

Here is a glitter tip for you. Take a little Gelish top coat and place it in a tiny foil bowl that you make with aluminum foil. Place a favorite color glitter in it. In a few short minutes the topcoat will take on the color of the glitter. Looks awesome for a custom glitter tip. You can use a gel brush to apply it or a spare polish brush if you have one. Enjoy!

That's a great tip, Alexa, thanks!

I just changed to 3 coats of Bella's Vamp and I LOVE it! I'm hooked on 3 thin coats because that 3rd coat really makes the color intense. I feel very edgy today, lol.

Pics of Bella's Vamp. I'll be trying Midnight Caller next \:\)

Bella's Vamp is dark merlot indoors, sometimes almost black, but outdoors it's totally dark purple. Very cool color.

I love your nails Erica!

Also welcome to the forums Susan. There are many ways to obtain Gelish and Shellac. I had once given the name of a site that did not require a license and after I did that they were sent many complaints by nails techs. Imagine that!

Anyways.....glad to see a new forum member. Can't wait to see your posts and if you don't mind would love to see pics of your jewelry collection. This jewelry forum is amazing isn't it.

Regards!

wow... thats weird. a good nail tech shouldn't feel threatned by availability of materials to the public; just as a hairdresser isn't threatened by box color. and if its a "safety issue", a woman should be trusted to do her due diligence learning technique and sanitation practices. that just kinda ticks me off.
