Read the tutorial on how to create a 'million dollar smile line'. It worked for me.

depends on which system you use... do you use gel, L+P or fibreglass?

Practice, Practice ,Practice!

You will get there eventually, it just takes lots of Practice!

What about with gel?! It seems absolutely implossible.

with gel it's easier.... you apply your Paint On White then using an old L+P brush dipped in Scrubfresh sweep the smile line, removing any white that's not where you want it to be... then carry on as normal.

i think i,ll just try and master the l+p first ,the gel just seems an impossible task at the moment.

i personally find gel MUCh easier than l+p

LOADS of time to 'fiddle'...er.... i mean 'perfect it' before u pop it in the lamp to cure......no setting like l+p then its all over !!

with L&P, someone suggested on here the other day to try and do it as if your doing "competition smiles" and then you will produce a nice smile. i tried it and it seemed to work.
