Nails 101: A Student Blog

Week 3: Information Overload — But I Love It!

by NAILS Magazine | October 21, 2013 | Bookmark +

We went over so many things this week. We went into more detail about Vinylux and the class got in some new fall colors. I love them all! Our instructor was attending some CND training all week and would share what she was learning with us. I can't wait to be able to attend those advanced classes. She even came back with a few items that aren't out yet, so that was a fun sneak peek into what CND is working on.

We went over Brisa Gel Lite and liquid-and-powder. Brisa Gel Lite is great for people who want long nails and can't wait for their own to grow out because this product is soakable! No need to file the natural nail — cool stuff! Another cosmo student allowed me put a full set of the new Brisa Gel Lite on her.

She wanted dollar signs on her pinkies so another nail student put it on for her.

Then came time for the liquid-and-powder. I was given a sheet to practice my mix ratio. I practiced putting smile lines on 10 nails…not cute. I did pink and white two times on my fake hand. My second round was a little better but not as smooth as my gel application.

Lots to learn, super excited!
