Makartt Blooming Gel Nail Polish - 15ml Clear Soak Off UV LED Blossom Gel Nail Polish for Nail Decoration, Nail Painting, Blooming Effect DIY Salon Use

Package arrived on time and was delivered in the usual way (ring the door bell, throw the package on the doorstep and run away). The blooming gel survived the traumatic delivery experience with no damage.The bottle is pretty big for the price. I have never used anything like this before. I had lots of grand ideas which haven't quite worked out yet. I think that if I have a little play around I might be able to do something more impressive but as a simple first two goes I did the pink then the blue.Here's how I did it.1. I prepared my nails the same way that I always do, they are very short at the moment because I am having a break from my normal nail extensions... Mostly because I got bitten by a small wolf (ok a dog but still it really hurt!) on my little finger and I am not sure if the nail is going to come off! I took off my previous colour, shaped and made sure that they were dry and free from any dust or bits.2. I choose my two colours for my first try I used pinks. It is better to have a pale base colour especially when you start out because if you have a darker colour it makes the colours you put on top look kind of muddy.3. I put my usual base coat and cured.4. I put my base colour on and cured (I needed two coats to get the right coverage.)5. I put a thin coat of the blooming gel on and I did NOT cure it. It is very thick and gloopy which isn't a problem it goes on evenly, it just surprised me.6. Along the base of my nail along my cuticle line (avoiding the skin) I put a line of small dots of the top colour. I added a bit more a few minutes in because I didn't think it looked like a strong enough colour.7. I hung my hand down to encourage the darker top colour to spread down my nail in the direction I wanted. When I was happy with the look I cured it. If you are unhappy with how it looks you can just wipe it off before you cure it. Reapply the blooming gel and try again.8. Apply your normal top coat and cure. I did a second round of curing to be sure that it was properly set.It worked out really well and I am pleased. There are a lot of ideas that I would like to try out but the gel nail varnish lasts for so long and I don't like taking it off if it's not chipped!Over all if you enjoy doing your own nails as a hobby I would say have a try!

The media could not be loaded. Ok I have never tried Blooming gel before and my video attached is of my very first attempt yesterday at trying to achieve a marble effect, next time I would only add 1 line of white in the colour pallete 😊💅🏼I paint my own natural nails every 3-4 weeks and had seen this on some videos so I was eager to try it out as I love creating eye catching nail designs.👍🏻Really simple to use:• You can either do it straight on top of a clear base coat that you have set or do it on top of a coloured base• once you have set a base coat, Prep your colours on the pallette by putting 3-4 lines of your chosen colours• Get a dotting tool and swirl a few lines through your lines of colour to pull them into each other• now put on a thin coat of the blooming gel and do not set it• with a long brush, now pick up the colour by pushing it straight across your colours• now start from the base of the nail and wiggle it up to the tip• get another line of colour on the brush and fill in the sides• try not to keep touching what you have already layed with the brush as it will just blend into a mucky colour (this process is all shown in my video)• you can use the dotting tool to pick up a certain colour to add to a section that is lacking that colour• set under lamp• topcoat and set➕TIP:Only things to bear in mind if you are doing several nails obviously the first nail you do is left to bloom longer than the last nail you do, so it's really hard to get the same effect if your not really quick doing it.So to start off you may need to set each nail as you do it to stop the colours blooming too much.YOU ONLY NEED A THIN LAYER OF THE BLOOMING GEL AND DO NOT SET IT TILL AFTER YOU HAVE ADDED THE COLOUR ON TOP OF ITHighly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First time I’d ever tried blooming gel polish, I was surprised at how easy it was to create such a unique effect. I received so many comments about my nails, really looking forward to trying this again. I painted it on then added colour with a dotting tool before curing once I was satisfied with the pattern and once it had distributed across my nail bed - so easy to use.

So easy to use, clear in colour, does what it’s meant to. Can’t fault it, will definitely buy more

amazing, seems to work with every gel polish i’ve tried!

Good product

colour blooms nicely but as it is so thick it chips and peels off!

Used it several times with good results.
