gel nails on me before and after how am i getting on?

how do you think im getting on??

i still find gel really difficult,

i cant seem to get in the swing of things,
sometimes im on a roll, and other times ive wiped off the sticky layer when i didnt need to, which means i have to file and i get all in a right cafuffle!!!

what do you think,
the before shots are of the hand i have to do tomorrow, but the hand i have done was like this before,
shocking nails i know!!! ( before hand i mean lol)
honest critique appreciated

thankyou to everyone, im over the moon, but how i got them like this is anyones guess, what a faff i had,
any tips for a free flow system??
i did
bonder layer
with clear form on cure for 2 mins
then builder layer over free edge only to hide short stumpy nails
then i cured then i filed then i applied another form
then i did white cured for 2 mins
then i did warm pink again over apex and nail bed cured for 2 mins
then i filed then applied clear to fill dips cured for 2 mins
so time consuming i must be doing it all wrong!!
please advise
