Beetles Pink Nude Gel Nail Polish Kit, 25PCS 20 Colors Neutral Jelly Pink Sheer Glitter White Gel Nail Kit Soak Off UV with Base Glossy Matte Top Coat Pearls Rhinestones Nail Charms Gift for Women

Perfect if you want to learn how to do your own nails. It comes with almost everything you need. It pays for itself in one use with how much it costs to get your nails done now.

I have a bad habit of biting and picking at my nails. It's embarrassing and I wanted to stop. I got this kit and so far, no mail biting or picking! My nails are strong and much longer than before! I do better when I can't see how long they are. The gel cures under UV light so as soon as the top coat is done, I can go do things like scrubbing the dishes or gardening or cooking or giving the dog a bath and my nails stay pretty. I like the variety of colors. I chose to paint each nail tester with 3 coats, covering 1/3 each time so I could see what 1, 2 and 3 coats looks like and cured between coats. I took a sharpie and wrote the color code on the reverse. I ordered the HEMA free top coat and foundation coat set (white bottles) separately. They're for sensitive nails and I love them!Key points:- Use a thin, even coat for base, color and top coats!- Cure between coats- All coats are tacky except for top coat after curing. THIS IS NORMAL. DO NOT WIPE.- Use SPF on hands, fingers, toes (yes it works for pedis too) and wrists. I use a lotion style SPF 50 and wait 30 mins minimum before starting. The first time I didn't use SPF and my fingers, cuticles and tips of my fingers had a burning/stinging sensation when using the light. I watch a show on Netflix or Disney to pass the time.- I also bought a gel remover and liquid latex separately on Amazon (not beetles) because I hate the smell of acetone/nail polish remover. Gel remover works great but don't get any on your skin, it burns like acid. I'm not allergic to latex so this really helps my polish look clean.- This kit comes with a cuticle softener (great value and very helpful!) And a cuticle oil (I do better with lotion.) I had to wait 48 hours between my first cuticle removal and my first paint session.- The nails MUST be clean and dry. After applying SPF and waiting for it to soak in, take a rubbing alcohol wipe or a cotton ball dipped in rubbing alcohol and wipe each nail off. Then take one of the pink little squares and wipe off any dirt.- Shape your nails BEFORE you paint them.I have used the included nail art items however the only ones that stay on are the pearls for me.- Clean off any excess nail polish/top or bottom coats BEFORE you cure! I use the metal cuticle tool included to scrape away any excess.- The UV lamp can get warm.- If you use the nail art items, those metal tweezers (included) are your best friend!- Yes, the bottles are small but they will last you if you use thin even layers.- The odor is still present but very low considering the alternative.100% would recommend and would buy as a gift! It's a great starter kit for beginners!!

Perfect for beginners. Just used for first time, not perfect but learning. Tips thin layers and increase cure times. They are a little thick but my fault, even if first layer is not full coverage stay with thin layers and build. Growing my nails and wanted gel protection. For a fraction of the cost of a salon I can do my own, although not perfect, great for my goal. Just get it, small bottles but enough to try as you learn and they offer so many other kits to add to your collection of polishes!

Its a good product for the price, the lamp works well and you get alot of stuff with it!BUT……It did give me an allergic reaction. I dont have super sensitive skin and ive tried beetles gel polish once before. The same thing happened but i didn’t think anything of it, now I know its because of the gel polish. I did my nails last night and woke up with all my cuticles being swollen, itchy, and bumpy.My nails look great but at what cost?

I love it! I wish it came with instructions lolI've used it like 3 times since I bought it. The first time it started peeling within the week, second time I forgot to put the base on so it didn't last longer than a couple days. This last time I didn't skip any steps, and they've been on with no signs of peeling for 11 days now ☺️

I’ve been using regular gel nail polish for a while and wanted to get a polish that would immediately elevate a basic set. This polish delivers exactly that, I’m not a huge fan of designs but I love things that shimmer and sparkle. This polish is easy to use and doesn’t at all budge on my soft gel x tips.

Kinda good but when I tried to let the polish dry it kept making air bubbles and ruined the nails

Iv been using this set since the beginning of February,as a total of today iv painted my nails 26 times to try to teach myself with this set . My honest review of this set is not all the colors work the same some are easier to apply than others . I found using barely any polish and super thin with 2 coats makes it perfect.that being said I don’t like the formula of the shiny polishes that much they are harder to use and they burn under a lamp for some reason.the magnets for the cats eye works but I’d recommend a stronger one. This set it good for a beginner overall and I like the brush and the files.i love the variety of colors. I don’t think they last for me personally more than 2 weeks without peeling or chips . The peel away base does work well . Or if you want to practice painting your nails and peel it off just don’t use the base and they pop right off in warm water . The matte top coat and gel coats are nice too. I would recommend this to someone starting out but if you want quality of quantity I’d pick another brand personally . For the price this has been good so far and it’s worth the money because everything works so far. Ps if they aren’t staying on or feel kinda Weird you need a different light iv change mine twice since starting.
