They're fab, especially considering the amount of time since you did L+P!!!!!!
I like the smiles, they're consistent, could have done with being a tad more smiley IMO.
The length is perfect, the shape is fab, I'm unsure if it's the angle of the pic but they look a bit thick.
Well Done for being extremely brave

Thank you you should have seen the thickness before i started to file , i had no prob with the smiles but working with the clear in zone 2 and 3 seemed to be too wet and i was draging the acrylic all over the place. I am going to go back to my comfort zone of gel asap

Hey - You are not allowed back into your comfort zone - you are doing too well for that. You have made a brilliant start so just think how pucker those nails will be after a bit more practice.

Well done hun!
