New to Gel-x and this community! I did my first set of gel x yesterday and I am mostly happy with the result for it being my first try. What I know I can do better- I purchased a e-file to help with the post application pre polish step to clean up the gel seepage and overall shape. I used a nail strip polish instead of gel polish as I used to sell for one of the MLMs a few years ago and still have a pile of merch I never sold lol - they did not work well for this and you can see the wrinkles from the strip application. Are there any “good” brands available on Amazon? What else can I do to get a more professional look? I used the Apres extension system
