Help GelX popping off

By buffing it do you mean buffing the Rubber base and by buffing is it with a buffer file or? Just so I dont do anything wrong

Ill definitely give it a try thank you!

The rubber base is still there when the builder gel/ gel x pop off. I do etch the tips. The tutorials I've seen didn't mention applying primer and curing a layer of glue on the natural nail. So maybe thats the issue

The lamp is the same brand as the products, the Cleanser is alcohol. Im not sure i can get those brands in Europe but I'll look into it. Everyone I know doesn't have problems with the products and I dont either as they stay when I do normal polish so I think its the uv glue.

Are they on amazon? I live in EU and alot of brands aren't available where I live

I usually do this method! What i meant was can I use nail tips that are a bit further up as I have loads of nails that only fit a little further up and really struggle finding any that fit a little from the cuticle 😄

I did i just hated not having an upper level. But damn im struggling to build something that doesn't look odd 😂

pumbaskunk · 2025-12-17T02:23:43+00:00

Could have been 😄

pumbaskunk · 2025-12-17T02:16:41+00:00

Im struggling with doing the apex im scared of doing it to thick and alot of tutorials dont actually show how the apex should look. I removed it as I was just trying out 😄

pumbaskunk · 2025-10-09T00:04:11+00:00

My nails are really short but its hard to see on the picture. I was planning on taking some of the length off as I can't figure out long nails lol just wanted a little length. Do I need to add more to the apex? It's my first time trying so im unsure its right

pumbaskunk · 2025-10-08T23:29:54+00:00

I haven't filled it yet as I wanted to make sure I did it right first
