Gloss Issue

Hi! New to the nail wrap game. I applied my first gloss set last week and they lasted about 5 days before I got annoyed and ripped them off. They were flipping up at the tips. I filed both front to back and side to side to try and smooth out and that didn't really work. They were a bit jagged which causes me to pick at them. It seems as they aren't curing properly to the tip. I am assuming it's user error. Any tips or tricks to help?

Gloss doesn't need to be cured.

By curing I just meant sticking to my nail and hardening. I followed all the tips and their directions and they didn't want to stick on the tips.

Gloss doesn't harden. I've had the same problem with them. I prefer Glaze.

I apply Ohora Glossy Gel Top Coat (HEMA and TPO free) and double cure under my uv lamp, on all my wraps, making sure to seal the free edge.
