I'm working this weekend in London at the Olympia exhibition centre.
I'll be giving visitors a sneak preview of the new LeChat acrylic liquid and powder range, Nail Architecture.
These are my own nails for the show. The main body of the nail is done with gel and the embelishments with the new liquid and powder product.
1. prep and prime the nail [ from the top. pic no 5]
2. apply clear gel and add lechat precious leaves [pic no 6] and crushed shells. cure 2 mins. [pic no 7]
3. fit form and pinch together where you want to form the point of the nail. [excuse my poor work, remember i had to do it with only one hand !] [pic no 8]
4. apply lechat fairydust gel to form the pointed tip, overlap slightly on to the free edge of the natural nail. cure 2 mins. [pic no 9]
