Re: Sourcing products for fake nails
While I don't use GPNs it's not for lack of quality but rather simply size of nail. I do apply KISS nails via the "GPN" method, or a variation thereof. GPN sells a brush-on glue and a "surgical" type…

Re: Sourcing products for fake nails

Re: Segovia's Masterclass on the Chaconne!

Re: Segovia's Masterclass on the Chaconne!
