Even natural colours are not overdoing it, don't avoid something that makes you happier just because it seems awkward! Personally I only use glue-ons for holidays and special weekends which sometimes aren't even coloured, cause I need short nails for typing at work. Empower yourself by not judging yourself about what you wear!

Circling back to your original issue, do you use a top coat? They're usually next to the nail polish in the store, and you'll need a UV lamp to cure them (generally also nearby the nail polish shelf). That'll keep the smell in if you manage to get full coverage.
