Michelle, Just for people like you, I built a mold with our tip maker to help. I named it a Vamp Tip. It's clear too so you can use white powder or gel and do french OR you can use colors to do designs.
There is one tough trick to it...and I am sure it's why no one has been successful with a true Stiletto Shape until now.... You can't make the C curve flat or the nail looks like a Dorito. I had to give it an extreme C curve straight through to the tip. So for flatter nail people you'll need to press it out. I also went a tad shorter than the Euro Stiletto. It's also well-less. http://sonnyboy.net/starnail/web_galleries/vamp_tips/pages/Star%20Nail%20Stiletto%200232.htm Our Starnail.com site is down for upgrades. I found the link above to my graphic guy's site. This is the set I did with the Vamp Tips for the packaging shot. The images were small and tough to see in this format but this one seemed to be easiest to see. Michelle you can call direct to order the tips. :) Kind Regards, Elaine T.
