You need a stronger light. I had that same problem with the opi pastels. Stronger light did the trick.

I had the same thing happen and it was still a bit tacky too. I just let it cure a couple days longer until exposed it to water and it did go away without any issues.

I've only had mine for about two months... no problems, and you only need to use a teeny-tiny bit at a time as it does sparkle on your face. I use it by itself as an eyeshadow sometimes. HINT: when you apply, do it in natural light; sunlight is best. That way, you can see the full effect then rather than later when you found out you're sparkling too much :). ENJOY!

I had the same experience. It looked like it was going to glow but it didn't work. I too had to apply more coats and still nothing

I didn't have any problems. Maybe try febreeze or another kind of fabric spray?

This arrived damaged, three time. I went to Micheals and then used it, it need to be mixed a lot. Then applied at least 4 times.T

Have you tried to shake it? I heard the brown is from the fragrance segment. Please shake and see if it makes any difference. :)

I ordered a bottle directly from the manufacturer (which by the way sells it much cheaper than here on amazon) and it too was a blackish-brown, lumpy and wouldn't even pour. I contacted the manufacturer who said it was definitely NOT supposed to be like that. They shipped me a new bottle and I sent them the old one back. This conditioner is ~supposed~ to have a medium dark-brown colour, but it's definitely supposed to be pourable. If you can't pour it from the bottle - send it back and get another.

You really need to bleach first, and I highly recommend the Sparks lightener and creme developer to do it. I also recommend going with the Ion color stay formula for conditioning, and keeping from fading. Message if you have any more questions. I love this color, and it's totally worth the hassle.

I agree. . . I have the same challenge. I detached the liner and put in in the wash but it still does not come as clean as I'd like to see it. I'm disappointed.

I think I read that you have to apply more than one coat. I haven't tested mine; sounds like I need to.

Get one that has little to no fuzz. You won't be able to use it on the first coat. You need the brush to get into the cracks, crevices, etc. Second/third coat--roller was great. Got a very smooth covering with no drip marks.

ours was pretty wrinkly when we got it..i suggest to keep it up for as long as possible, ours eventually got better.but yours could be worse..if it looks that terrible,i would see if they have a good exchange policy or not...or u could wait it out and see if it gets better.?

Hi Tricia! It's just the way we formulated the product, however, alot of people think the medium color is quite dark! If you want you can always add a second layer if you want it darker than just what one coat gives you. Hope this helps! :)

Hi Sara, I re-sprayed my fabric after washing it, just to be on the safe side, two out of three times...my fabric is black with white print...I didn't notice any problems/lack of protection when I neglected to spray it, but that might be due to the main color being black. If in doubt, spray it again! ;)

It can be somewhat of an egg white consistency if applied too thick. You can remedy this with a coat of water from a make up brush though. It wont crack when you put make up on if you wait the full 7 minutes. I did find a product for 10.00 called Renoir No Lines that works just as well if not better. Good luck!

I use gelish PH bond, foundation, color, then top coat. I've tried the gel color you can get at CVS and it does not stay on as long. Definitely buy gelish brand or higher quality than what CVS carries.
