hi there
i think your apex is too far forward and it loks like you are using far too much product resulting in a thick nail
apply less product all over, and place the apex back slightly
ps i would say to use half product of what you are using already
i know you are new at this so dont take this personally best of luck xx

it looks great well done and you can see the glitter in photo.
i think you could do with abit more product just behind you apex placement as it looks like its abit more of a slight hill rather than a curve (if that makes sense) this should also help to move your apex back abit as it is slightly to far forward.try to file your apex down abit as it looks like you have used abit too much product in this area i hope i havent offended you at all...its looking good though.xx

I agree with Blossom. Try to think of the curve of your nails as an almond.
Keep practicing and you WILL be there!

Nobody has offended me - I know apex is thick and forward. Thats why I mentioned it. Have filed it down and looks way better.

LOL - I have a very understanding hubby!

Its not bad at all considering you haven't been doing it long.
The only way to learn is to get people to see and tell you.
Just remember, you don't need it to be thick to be strong, of anything if you make it too thick it can actually make it lift, because the nail loses it's flexibility.
Keep practicing hun.
