Looks great :D Base coat is nice to make the finished polish look smoother. Some are less toxic (better for your nails) than colour coats. Also it makes is easier to clean the nails when taking off the polish than not using the base coat. The number one cause of bubbles is applying another coat too soon before the previous one dries. Also, shake the colour polishes, but don't shake the base or top ones - shaking those tends to cause bubbles. My best tip is to paint your nails under good light, so you can see what you're doing better. If you notice bubbles in real time when you're applying polish, you have a wee bit of time to apply another stroke to get rid of them
