This is another thing that’s been on my mind recently. When do you use alcohol versus acetone? I’ve noticed that I pretty much exclusively use alcohol unless I need to really clean something up that I messed up then I’ll use acetone as I noticed that it’s a little bit clearer afterwards. Is there a good rule of thumb to keep in mind with these?

I struggle with line art for example outlining character art. Doesn’t matter how many classes I do I just struggle and the shorter the brush the better for me. My birthday is tomorrow and plan on spending my birthday money on nail goodies 🙊 So because The Nail Tech Corner is nation wide please suggest you best brushes!! I’ve been looking at Devs nail supplies (USA) but it’s $108 for shipping her shortest is 5mm Ballpit (USA) has the similar brush’s including a shorter one 4mm and a lot cheaper and postage is only $27 Kirsty Meakin (UK) has really nice ones but there super expensive and super expensive for postage as well Anyways there just a few I’ve looked at I’m in Australia and I just can’t seem to find the perfect ones here were kinda limited and the shortest is 6mm I need shorter 😂 Thanks lovelies!

I need help plz. For some reason my stamper will NOT pick up my off my plates. Whether they're cheap plates or expensive plates. Different paint ANYTHING. Does anyone have any tips?

So proud of my mom’s nail journey. She started soon me in December with weak broken nails from a bad removal. She trusted me and now her nails grow too long and we have to cut them down to this. She has a permanently damaged nail on her left index finger but we have been able to grow it out with no pain or splitting with soft builder

Cuticle prep is something I’m really focusing on at the moment 🫶🏼 I’ve currently invested in two cuticle prep courses and have just invested in some good-quality nippers and bits, so I’m really trying to refine my technique and, most importantly, make sure I’m working safely and not overworking the natural nail or surrounding skin. (My pointer is always more sensitive so I dont nip as much) This is my hand completely unedited after my prep; how do you think I went? What would you personally improve? I also have a question for the more experienced techs, I'll drop it in comments! 👀
