Works really well

I wanted to write a review because this product is working so fabulously in conjunction with my Kiss nails!!! I found this product watching a YouTube video and talked about how to get these press on nails to last the absolute longest and I have to say it’s worked great. Here is what she advised if you were interested in the whole process: I started by using a good cuticle remover to push back the cuticles and prep the nail bed – you want to get the press on nails to go as far under your natural cuticle as possible so that they last the longest. The video talked about prepping the fake nails using a nail sander on the underside just to buff them up a little bit to encourage the glue to bind better - not sure this is an absolutely necessary step but my nails are holding strong. I had a French manicure, so I was concerned it would affect the transparent look of the nail, which it did not. I then gave the nails a swipe of alcohol just to clean any oils off. I then applied this product. Glue was applied to the backside of the press on nail as well as to my natural nail. You then push the nail all the way under the cuticle and in one action press and hold the nail down in the center. I then keep a swab handy that has a little bit of acetone on it to quickly wipe the edges of my nail if any glue has seeped out, while still holding pressure on the nail. Then grab the nail on the sides and give it a nice squeeze. What I have found is that if you release the pressure on the nail initially, it will pop up slightly and then when you push it back down that’s where you get air pockets mixed in with your adhesive and gives the transparent French manicure a slightly mottled look. Do yourself a favor and think about your dexterity. My being right handed I started by putting all the nails except for my thumb on my RIGHT hand 1st, then I did the same for nails on the opposite hand, followed by the thumb, and then finally the thumb on my dominant hand. The reason for this is that you tend to use your thumb as your nail presser and when you already have the artificial nail on it, it makes you kind of clumsy with your dexterity. You also have more dexterity with your dominant hand, so by doing it first, even though it’s a little clumsy, it’s not as bad as your non-dominant hand, now with fake nails on it! You’re also able to clean off any glue that you got on your thumb prior to applying its nail. After two weeks with a French manicure, the very edges of the nail start to look a little worn leading to a slight halo effect near the cuticle. I used a little bit of a buffer block to sand that down smooth and then roughed up the whole surface of the nail. I then painted them with a beautiful color to cover up the imperfections that now were in the French manicure. I am at 3weeks out now, and I’ve not lost a single artificial nail. I’d like to think I’m pretty active and I’ve never had them hold up this well in the past - none of them are budging! I definitely think this product in addition to what else I did helped a tremendous amount. I’m going to attach a picture of the French manicure day one and then the painted nail that I did at the start of week three - same set of nails.

Good product !!

Okay quality

I was having trouble with nail glue adhering to my bare nails but this helped me out there! Now all my hard work with press on didn't go to waste 3 hours later. Highly recommend if you do your own nails at home. I ordered this well over a year ago and do my nails every two weeks and haven't yet had to repurchase.

I do a lot of nails, and when I'm starved for new colors to play with, I love getting these kits-- this one did not disappoint. 😍 The spring palette of vibrant colors gave me great coverage with only a single coat... and I'll be wearing these colors all summer long. 🥰 I used only the products included in the kit, with two of my own detail brushes to produce all the samples you see in the video. For someone interested in trying gel polish, you'll find everything you need inside with a palette that's inspiring to create with. The gels are highly pigmented and level themselves nicely. The included dotting tool is a fun way to make instant, easy, beautiful nail art. If you're an established DIYer or nail artist, it's a terrific way to infuse your color library with some new shades, get some extra tools and goodies... and having that spare lamp on hand is never a bad idea! 🤩 Ok... the bad... there's always something, right? The white gel is a bit hard to work with and requires a bit of patience and technique to get really even and smooth. No real surprise there though as white and black are always the hardest. This particular white is at least as easy as other popular brands, so I can't complain much about that. The only other thing I didn't care for was the particular shape of these tips. The curve doesn't fit me exceptionally well, but that's a very individual thing and doesn't even affect my rating... after all, many love that very curve and fit! In short, I really do love this kit 💖, and I can happily recommend it to anyone... brand new or well established. Want to recreate the set from the video? 1. Base gel. Cure. 2. Paint all the middle stripes. Cure. 3. Paint tops and bottoms. Cure. 4. Add dots. Cure. 5. Two top coats for extra shine & durability. Cure thoroughly between & after. 💕

Excelente

i have mixed feelings about this kit, the cuticle oil is alright for me, smells nice, the dehydrator is pretty good, but the ph bond is not effective at all, it made my nails shiny and that made my nails peel off. the little wipes are pretty good, overall it isnt too expensive, so im not too mad at it.
