Adrienne, I have not liked the results I get with odorless acrylics when I've tried them.
So here are some ideas about reducing odors: Use a trash receptacle that blocks odors in..I use a "diaper genie" type trash can Use a menda pump instead of an open dappen dish Don't have your monomer open any longer than needed.and immediately after application, clean up your brush and put it away, throw away your table wipe, etc. Spritz an essential oil spray in the surrounding area immediately after application Best idea ever: A friend hung an "over the oven" hood over her table attached to a dryer hose that went to the outside.but instead of the noisy fan that is right there at the hood, she had a small exhaust fan on the end of the hose that was at the outside end. She flipped a switch to turn it on.it was a very small, very quiet fan, and it worked really well to pull odors out.as well as teeny airborne particles. Or..Try gels instead of odorless acrylics? Good luck to you in your new place!

MMMM, not loving it, but I'll give it a try. My first set took FOREVER to set up on Friday, and she called to come back in today because the gel topcoat cracked...only on the white, and they yellowed badly. Any tips or suggestions? I read somewhere else odorless can not be used with colored acrylic. I use young nails mostly and some creative. Aren't there some type of drops I can buy to put in my monomer? Is anyone using odorless everyday?
