It depends what viscosity you prefer and if you will also make French, the colours of the camouflage / cover pink gels. We have different viscosities and also sell small 5ml pots for testing:

As Bob said it depends totally on the viscosity of the gel that you like and unfortunately it does require a bit of research and playing around with what you like. I haven’t used iconiq myself, but I have tried the crystal nails and have recently discovered Light Elegance range of lexy line, and extreme and 1 step as they had a little trial pack from Sweetsquared and it’s amazing products. But it really does take time to research and find what you like though, also you’re not the only one too so if there aren’t any trial kits in a brand checkout FB marketplace for people selling off used lots.

Hi ! I use Crystal nails Hard Tan cover gel very strong gel good for building nails , for French nails ,or if somebody has very weak nails to make tham stronger for base I put under compact base gel !
I also recommend Crystal nails xtreme fusion gels !
