how to prevent gel from getting under nails / top skin of finger?

i tried doing my first ever gel x tips yesterday, but ended up removing them because i was scared when the gel got on my skin on the tip of my nails. i also cut my nails a bit shorter which i think i shouldn't have done lol. but if anyone has tips on preventing this from happening, especially on people who have short nail beds, i am open to advice!!

compatible gel polish for apres gel-x beta bundle

hi! i am starting my journey into doing my own nails at home and I decided to get the apres gel x signature kit + beta bundle, as I think this would be worth the money in the long run. I have all of the essentials for cuticle prep, acetone, alcohol, and more, but i am now in need for a good and affordable gel polish.

here are some of my options:

dnd, apres, kokoist, gelish, modelones (?)

open to advice or any other suggestions tho!! i am still a beginner, and at first, I wanted to purchase kits from amazon but heard that beetles or anything on the cheaper side is risky so..

Need Help Building Fractal Design Terra

Hey everyone, I need help building or just picking parts right now for my gf's build. There's a lot idk about mini builds. There's some things I found like smaller ram for more airflow or something and then a sfx power supply to fit a fan underneath but thats all I reember. Here's the part list I've got so far. I need everyon'e expertise to fact check me. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/b4bysqu1d/saved/#view=cJbPK8

The goal is for it to run D5 Render and Autocad/Rhino/Revit pretty well and gaming, but if it handles the software programs it should handle what she will end up playing, in my opinion.

emerson tote bag

is the big emerson tote bag worth the price? i've been trying to find good work/travel bags that are also a bit stylish and hefty, and this tote really caught my eye. I love the slouch and details, and I am also curious if the leather creates a nice patina after a few years of wear?

please to influence or de-influence me from this bag! haha
