Hi Shannon, When it comes to acrylic or lets say enhancements...the rolling up along the edges is just gonna happen. It works well on natural nails and my application lasts almost 3 weeks. Enhancements only a week :( I so love to wear them. so what I try to do besides really heating that minx up for more than 30 seconds is to apply and press and hold for 30 seconds. The after doin all 5 I go back with (a gloved hand) use a metal pusher thats been sitting under the map and it hot. same idea as a flat iron. In fact a really skinny -on the go- iron might really do the trick better. I tried usin 5-second along the free edge ...my client used a lighter lol.... what really work is using a minx that is ever slightly more narrow. I find that if your minx does not actually go all the way to the side walls then it does not curl up as fast this is tricky on sizing but it works. Hope this helped
