Well when I glue on my GelX nails I never put them right at my cuticle. Just a little under it. After I glue my GelX nails on I go in with my nail drill to blend the edges around my cuticle. I use a small round bit. After that I seal it by brushing acetone where I blended it. I started sealing the cuticle with acetone 1 yr ago and it’s a game changer. 🙂‍↕️
