    I find the gooseneck uv/led lamp works way better than those where you have to put your nail underneath the light for gel x. A whole game changer!

      @@RamoArt if you already have a UV lamp torch (like a flashlight but UV), you can attach it to a lamp or a book (so that it's elevated) and flash cure it that way! Works better than using the full lamp or the one this kit comes with.

      ​@@RamoArt I suggest trying the solid nail glue, it's a game changer! It's actually meant for gel-x so it's not technically a "glue." But it helps so much bc the nails stay in place while you're working on the rest of the hand, so you can just put all the nails on at once and then put your hand in the lamp. You could flash cure them as you go if you wanted to be super safe, but I haven't found that I need to do that. Also I saw one video where the TH-camr had a mild skin reaction, but if you don't have sensitive skin you should be fine - I haven't had any problems and I've been using it for awhile

    Hey Evie, quick tip, always etch the inside of tips unless it says or you can see pre etched. The same science/ logic about buffing the tops before you put gel polish on the top applies to the inside before you attach to your natural nail. Gel doesn’t like smooth surfaces so for the best and strongest adhesion always etch and or buff. For people who don’t have an efile you can use primer on the inside of tips to chemically etch them. Hope that helps!

    I have wide nails too and have always had issues with press ons. I’ve learned from your channel that I have to get the longer ones (I don’t really do long nails often) and I can jus cut them down to my desired length. I haven’t started doing my own nails yet, but I’ve been watching your channel for awhile and once I’m able to start, I’m getting everything I need! I loved this set btw!

    Another tip ladies and gents: For those who struggle with the glue, in most of these kits, they have a liquid "glue" gel to adhere the tips. I found a solid glue on Amazon and the grip is amazing! There are numerous brands of these on there so just look for solid nail glue. They will come in pots and not bottles or tubes. They also come in nail bed color or other base colors for French tip affects. Good luck y'all!
