they sound like full well tips is that what you mean?
if i use full well i hold my file at 45 degree angles and remove the well then they are just as good

Hi hun you haven't filled in your profile with regards to your training doing this makes it much easier for other professionals to help.
If you are indeed trained, tips would have been covered in your course if not then you should get back in touch with your educator and ask

My advice would be to go and to a course that is industrty recogised. Then you will know the answers and be qualified! How good is that

Sounds like full cover nail tips/false nails. If so they are just glued on and decorated with polish, stickers, paint or whatever nail art one wishes.

Well, I guess one could. But I can't say I see the point? Why apply l&p on top of the false nail when you can apply it directly to the natural nail? Anyway, these false nails are great for displaying your nail art!

My biggest concern with fake nails is all the adhesive under the fake nail and it becoming very unsanitary over time.
I would forget using them on yourself at least for anything long term ... use your normal professional tips.
These fake nails are not made of the professional type plastic and are not meant to be overlaid and it is my guess that if you try to overlay it with Liquid & Powder they will crack big time. The monomer will affect them badly IMO.
