Question
Hi,
i use tips with a gel overcoat. I am finding that the tip corners lift. I am using to little glue? or the wrong glue? or could it be they are nor blended? I believe they can not be blended any better. Any ideas please... thanks Jane
hi jane
yes the reason for the sides of tips lifting is usually they are not blended in enough, make sure you can see no join line and no white shadow of where the plastic tip was. It also helps to ensure you have used enough glue as otherwise they will just peel off when filing.
Thanku
