I know its improved a lot since then, I just get a kick out of how the memory cycle works. Every ten years or so things get repackaged or repromoted and eveything is suddenly "new":)
I know how you feel about the time factor lol!!! I have a student who was born in 1991. I was in the military then:p Nicole Sent on the TELUS Mobility network with BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: Michelle Cordes <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 11:43:18 To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: NailTech:: Poor little Gelish-- just like high school I had the whole IBD color line when I first started, and it just didn't apply well IMO. This next generation of gels is so much easier to apply... just like other products have improved. AND NICOLE, CAN WE PLEEEEEESE NOT REMIND ME THAT 1992 WAS NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO!!!YOU DAMN NEAR GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!!! I CANNOT POSSIBLY BE THAT OLD... 1992 seems like yesterday in soooooo many ways!

The owner had brought in stacks of old trade magazines from the 80s and early 90s because she is spring cleaning. A 1992 spring/summer edition of one of them had a splashy ad for IBD, advertising the great and fabulous UV cured nail polish, almost 20 years ago:D Nicole Sent on the TELUS Mobility network with BlackBerry ________________________________ From: Maggie in Visalia <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 29 Apr 2010 11:23:18 -0700 (PDT) To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: NailTech:: Poor little Gelish-- just like high school Ah! I never said "better." I haven't had any experience with Shellac yet, so I'm not qualified to offer an opinion regarding quality or even personal preference. I was just pointing out that Shellac wasn't the first bottled gel polish to market, so it struck me odd that there were so many post discussing it as though it was.
