This is how I do a french SO with Star Eco. I start with the pinky on the left hand. I do the base, cure, wipe with dry brush, pink, cure, apply white (I brush it on like regular polish, it self-levels well) swipe smile line, flash cure, go to right pinky while left is flash curing and rotate hands until all 10 fingers are done, then cure whites for 2 minutes. Then I put on the SO topcoat (I am using the one from Dashing Diva and I like it alot) or a layer of clear gel for the topcoat. I brush it over the pink just down to the white with most of the SO topcoat or clear gel staying on the pink, then just lightly brush over the white and cap the free edge. Let it self level for 5 seconds or so, then cure. Works for me, no bumpy white. I have done Lynnette's method as well, it works great also.

I got the ECO sample and am doing a layer of Base Gel, curing, then Pink, curing, then White, curing and then clear, curing, just like the instructions. How do you apply the white so that it is not too thin or too thick. Looking for some tips here..... Do you apply left to right, right to left, brushing sideways and then swipe smile? Do you apply in a downward motion then swipe smile? I just can seem to do it without it either being too thick, too thin or having a hump at the end. HELP!
