I have done several frustrating and funky looking sets of builder gel extensions with dual forms in the past and wow…Gel X blows that process out of the water!

I used Natural XS Almond tips from Apres and Una Gella thick gel glue in a squeeze bottle which I read was good for beginners. Overall it went well, but my nail beds are so flat that I did have trouble with the application on a few of them (bubbles, too little glue, tight/sore feeling). I am wondering if anyone thinks Bare Gel X in the Natural shape would be better for my wide, flat nails?

There were a few places where I got little curly pieces of glue escaping at the cuticles and mostly managed to use an orange stick to clean them up just before or just after my flash cure, and one nail where the base of the tip ended up too far from the cuticle and I had to do a lot of blending/buffing to be flush with my cuticle.

Give me your advice on the above or any critiques you see in the photos!
