Beetles Gel Nail Kit Medium Square with Nail Dehydrator and Primer, 576Pcs Half Matte Etch-X Gel Nail Tips Solid Nail Glue Mini Nail Lamp Acrylic Nail Tips Easy DIY Nail Extension Set Gift for Women

I bought this soft gel nail kit to do my nails at home, and I was honestly impressed by how easy it is to use, even if you’re not a professional. The soft gel nails are good quality, look natural, and feel comfortable. They adhere well, don’t feel heavy, and last several days when applied correctly. The kit includes everything you need to get started and is great for saving time and money compared to going to a salon. I really like the clean, professional-looking finish. This kit is perfect for beginners and also great for at-home nail users. I would definitely recommend it and would buy it again.

I bought these to create coffin shaped nails in a length that suits me. Coffin short is too short, not enough landscape for good nail art. , Coffin medium is just a bit too long for me. You can't really trim the coffin shape or it won't be a coffin shape anymore. I also purchased these in the almond mediums for the same reason. With the almond, I wound up with something like ballerina, which is fine but I wanted to see if I could get coffin or pretty close to it in a length I like without having to completely reshape each nail. Shaping these is very time consuming so you want to choose a shape and length that works for you pretty much as-is. When I snip off just the tip, these stiletto nails are as close to coffin as I can create without having to do a lot of work. I used an artificial nail cutter with a dial on it--$10 on Amazon and definitely the most accurate way to get all 10 the same length. I applied these nails and then set the dial on the trimmer at 5--the higher numbers on the dial will leave the nail longer. I believe the highest number is 7. The lower the number the more it will cut off. #5 takes off about 4 or 5 mm-- so the whole pointed portion, leaving just the tapered square end. I'm very happy with the results. I am new to doing full sets at home. I was misled to believe that I need to spend more than double on the Apres nails. I don't. These Beetles nails have been great so far at about 33 to 50% of the price. They wear well. I haven't experienced cracking. They're shaped and sized perfectly. I can find a size to fit each of my fingers with little to no filing down the sides. These are Beetles' reasonably new "etch x" tips that come pre-etched in the portion that covers your nail plate, saving a step in the application process. I am using Apres Extend Gel to apply these nails and I'm really happy with it. I haven't tried other brands yet, but the Apres gel seems to combine strong with gentle, so these suckers hold on really well but, unlike the glue that many brands offer, the Apres gel is gentle on my natural nail underneath so I can still grow my own nails and do a basic gel mani once in a while. One of the things I'm learning is that even when I didn't do a great job of getting the nails on right, they still last a long time without popping off using the method I'm using. I took off my first set after a week and figured out that even though there was some lifting, they very likely were not going anywhere for at least another week, maybe two. Air bubbles underneath is the biggest challenge to overcome, along with placing the back edge of the nail just close enough to your cuticle without getting too close. I either get no air bubbles but the back edge is too close, or a good placement with regard to my cuticle but in trying to be precise I let in air. Still, I'm getting a great looking full set. This mani would have cost about $125 at the salon. I've invested a few hundred dollars in equipment, supplies, and polish/art, but I have already more than paid for it in what I'm not spending on nail techs. I've watch a lot of how-to videos and I strongly suggest that if you're planning to start doing your own Gel-x nails at home. Overall good quality product at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.

This Beetles 9-in-1 gel nail glue works great. It’s strong, easy to apply, and very versatile. I used it for nail extensions and as a base, and it holds really well after curing under a UV/LED lamp. The consistency is perfect—not too thick or too runny—so it’s easy to control, even for beginners. My nails stayed secure for days without lifting or breaking. Great quality for the price and a must-have if you do your nails at home. I would definitely buy it again

I am a licensed nail technician and I use full cover tips for clients who only want nails for a special occasion. These are the perfect short almonds. The material is good quality. Cons- I tried using them as is but the etching doesn't seem - etched. I recommend going over that spot again with a sanding band (or whatever you use to rough up the inside ) to make sure there is proper adhesion. In order for tips like this to adhere to the nail- you must rough up the part that covers the nail plate. Shiny doesn't stick to shiny. They will pop off. Also, use nail glue that needs to be cured if you want them to last longer than a couple of days. If a person has a high C curve these will not work. A c-curve means if your nail area is arched not completely level with your finger and your nail grows out curved, not flat. A high c-curve is where your nail area is very raised and actually grows out in the shape of a C. Sorry if this is self explanatory to some but I get clients all the time who have no idea what I am talking about when I mention this to them. So I hope for those who didnt know that I explained it in an understandable way.

Its was nice,until u see the Nail Glue 😢 so disappointed that the nail glue is harder than my head. 😥 not a Good Product, waste of money

La entrega fue nefasta, pero el producto por ahora, nada mal, aunque no ha superado mis expectativas….

Tried gel X nails for the first time with this UV glue, and I am really positive about it! My nails already last for 2 weeks now! And it was my first time doing them and they already stay on so for so long! I had low expectations because of the price, but you really need to buy this glue! With a good prep they last so long. ! :)
