So as you might know, I finished day 4 of 6 of my CND course Thursday and my mum is walking round with some rather bumpy acrylics.
I'm trying to get as much practise in as possible, so obviously the first step was to try a set on myself! I have tiny, ski jumped nails which doesn't help. Firstly let me point out my biggest problems are making the smile lines and secondly leaving enough space around the cuticle area to file smooth down. I would like to use a cover pink on my nails, but our kit only includes a sheer pink, so you can see some of my own free edge underneath.
I know I need a LOT of practise. Also it gets quite difficult because my left hand and fingers get very stiff and crampy as a result of a badly broken wrist. The middle finger is very bulky underneath, whereas all the others border on being too thin! On my little finger, I tried to smooth down at the cuticle line as much as possible but kept catching my skin so had to stop.
I know I'm asking for feedback.. But I'm quite nervous to post this! So please try and be nice!
Thanks in advance X
