The learning curve is steep but I'll keep trying!
This is my first attempt at dip. I purchased because my tech has closed her shop due to COVID-19.  I think practice will improve my application technique as I had to apply 3-4 layers of color in order to not have bare spots and ridges (practice will hopefully improve evenness of basecoat application to insure evenness of color powder) .  Since I was attempting a fade, I am going to put the glitter powder in a spice jar with a sifter lid in order to have a more even speckled cover instead of the full-on coverage.  Additionally, I ordered periwinkle but was sent a tan shade - which I will never use.  I emailed customer service and they got back to me in a day saying they will send the color and a return address label.  Overall, I am happy with this product but it will take practice.  I tore up my cuticle from all of the filing so once my tech opens up, I will probably go back to her.  We'll see.
