Modelones Poly Nail Gel Kit 30ml 2PCS Clear Brown Colors with Slip Solution Extension Builder Enhancement Professional Starter Kit Nail Technician Manicure DIY

First off, I'm not a professional nail tech (you can see the mistakes). I've done at home acrylics since 2021 on and off because I have kids and it's almost impossible to get to a salon and spend hours there and it be worth it. But I'm horrible at acrylic, with most sets not lasting more than a week. This red set is my 4th set (2 on hands and one on toes), but this time I did it differently. I have flat nails so the molds that came were no good for me, which is why all 3 first sets all popped off quickly and were very messy. This time I did an acryclic extension with glue and freehanded the polygel myself, which seems to be sooooo much better. The nails came out thick and dried right, plus no bubbles and the product is much easier to work with and shape, especially since it won't dry until you use the lamp. A few tips: - PREP! Do not forget to prep properly or they won't last more than an hour or two (happened to 2 nails I skipped prep on during the first so I can test) - I am not 100% sure if the base coat is actually helpful, as I didn't use it on my red 4th coat, which has lasted much longer and came out better and more pressed to the nail (take this time with dignity because I noticed the base coat peeled off easily) - Have a LOT of good lighting - Don't use too much slip solution or it can slip under the light and onto your skin (which will burn a little) - If you choose to paint over, use a base coat or lightly wipe the top of the polygel with a non-lint cloth (or something similar) with a little bit of nail polish remover, because the top will be sticky and clump nail polish. - If you choose to use acryclic extension, ensure that you double seal the tips with top coat where the acryclic extension meets the polygel, or you can bet you'll get some chipping, lifting, or separating will occur during hard use of the nails, because it is known that polygel and acrylic can have adhesion issues.

Easy to Use and Great for DIY Nails Review: The kit comes with everything needed to get started. The gel is easy to work with and gives my nails a nice, smooth finish. Great option for doing poly gel nails at home without spending a lot at a salon.

Just got it today and did one hand. So far I love it. If these hold up with my wear and tear, I will be sticking with this product. Very little heat spikes but there was some. I LOVE 006 (light apricot). I’m by no means a nail tech, I just do my own nails for fun. I use the forms so you might have a whole different take on the gel if you don’t. I found it easy to work with but sticky and that did make it a little difficult cleaning up the edges of the forms. The forms that come in this kit are easier than others I’ve tried and I like them better for longer nails. They give you more of a curved arch to create the thickness you need so the nail won’t break. The brush worked just fine for the forms but probably not for those trying to sculpt their nails. The slip solution worked just fine, if you don’t like it you can always use rubbing alcohol. I have my own files/e-file so I didn’t use the one in the box. The base and top coat are nice and thick and work well. I have nail prep stuff from other brands I’ve tried in the past. All that to say NONE of it matters if you don’t prep your nails. If you are a beginner (I learned this the hard way lol) nail prep is everything! watch some YouTube tutorials. It’s not as simple as slapping the product on your nails, curing it, and you’ve got Solon style nails that will last you a month. Do yourself a favor, save yourself the hassle, and money, watch some tutorials and prep your nails ladies 💋

I bought this to try to save money, but I didn't realize I would be wasting my time instead. The color of the gels is fine and if you have some experience this will be good for you but this is NOT for beginners. You need many more tools than what is in this box and it is really messy. The small ESSENTIAL products run out quickly like the slip solution. It was also very hard to get off. I bought a drill and even that took way too long to cut through this product. (May not be an issue if applied correctly but for beginners, they will be lumpy and this will just make the situation worse.) You also can not do anything with the small wooden stick and emory board they supply. You will need a drill and nail clips so that you can individually cure these.

After looking for over a month, this is one of the very best deals I found when it comes to how much (and the quality of) product you get for the cost. Overall, it's an awesome kit! The polygel is very easy to work with, and will level out just enough to smooth out brush strokes and minor unevenness. > Dual Forms: If you've been doing polygel for awhile, you probably know how difficult it can be to find good dual forms. These are the ones everyone raves about in their YouTube videos, so.... yassss! :) > Base & Top Coats: The base and top coats are excellent, just slightly smaller than a typical full size polish, but I wouldn't call them minis. > Brush: The brush that's included is decent. It comes with a cap/lid that doubles as the brush handle, but doesn't include spatula. It's fine for getting started, but you'll probably want to purchase another if you need a spatula or like it included as part of your brush. > Slip Solution: The slip solution works fine. It is very small though! It will get you through your first full set, maybe 2. I personally prefer alcohol over the solution with these particular polys. I've used up to 90% alcohol on these gels with zero issue. > Polygels: - very easy to work with - great for all experience levels, especially beginners because it has some self-leveling - the Clear is one of the clearest that I've ever used - Light Apricot is a translucent neutral that would work well with any skin tone All in all, I very highly recommend this set, especially if you're a beginner and have been trying to decide among all the options available on Amazon. It would be really hard to beat this value for price! *** PHOTOS: I used the same brand polygels in Soft Pink, White, & Clear for this set. This was my 5th time using polygels, and only the 2nd full set I had done without dual forms. I'm pointing that out to let you know that even if you aren't perfect, this gel is easy to work with and can still turn out nice! > The 1 hand photos were done with my non-dominant hand!

Comes with everything u need...but i would buy a few extra nail files and nail tips if u like them long...the file it comes with is small and really only good for 1 or 2 uses It does take some mastering.....watch some youtube videos and start practicing the more u do it, the better ull get..ive done 5 or 6 sets now and fixed many broken nails and and am soo comfortable using the kit now and plan on continuing to do my own naila instead of going to the salon...saves me 90 bucks a month when i do it myself I even got down how to do white tips and they looks great...so many of my friends cant believe i did them myself! A huge money saver!! Im starting to get low on the clear color polygel and plan on buying more polygel. The forms i still use and once i run out of the solution, ill just replace it with alcohol. I think the trick is making sure u really thin out the gely near the end where it meets ure cuticle...if u have too much gel...itll spill over onto the outside of ur nail or deep under ur cuticle and after it sets for the first day...it may have spots that lift or cling to hair as it grows out...and i definitly pick at my nails...so if theyre not perfect ill end up lifting the edges in attempts to remove the excess and then im redoing multiple nails I will mention that i use to always get gel naila from the salons with tips until my nails grew out the tips ....i like my nails long...so the poly gely is not as strong as the gel that made from the powder and liquid but its so much easier to apply and even if i break a nail...i just fix it...ive gotten fast at it so it only takes me 10 to 20 mins to fix a broken nail or replace it and is worth the ammount of money i save It does take me 2 hrs to do a full set but i feel as i continue to get comfortable (i also have a professional nail drill, like they use at salons, to speed up the process and am becoming very comfortable using it) i will continue to get quicker at completing a set. I also do my mother in laws naila and she absolutely loves them. She doesnt keep her nails very long so she doesnt require tips when i do her nails ans she loves how it keeps her nails strong and looking beautiful.

Like everyone else during the pandemic, I too also wanted to try doing my own nails! After extensive research I decided to try doing polygels! Price wise, this is definitely well worth it. - The clear is quite sticky and harder to master but I’ve mainly used the pink one because of the designs I’ve tried.. and it’s the perfect pink! Very natural looking and the gel is easy to handle. - The slip solution works well and makes working the gel a lot easier and the bottle may be small but a little goes a long way. - the top and base coat worked well - the file is very sharp. Shapes the nails very quickly. - the brush was tiny and perfectly compact.. but the only problem is, now it’s pretty frayed from putting it in and out of the cap. - I didn’t use the nail forms cause they’re really curved so I bought my own. All in all if you’re looking for trying polygels or needing something natural, this is a good buy.

When my box arrived I opened to find a seal on one of the bottles was defective. Polygel had spilled out and gotten on both bottles and the brush. I contacted Amazon and had the option to return the whole thing, but after deliberation I decided to just keep it. It was about an eighth of one bottle and I had been wanting to start playing with polygel immediately and did not want to wait another week or so to return and get a replacement. The leaked polygel was clean so I scooped it out and saved what I could. It was a pain cleaning everything, but I'd rather do that then wait the time necessary to replace it. This was purely a manufacturing error though and does not seem to be a common issue looking at reviews. Besides that, the presentation was nice. Box was nice quality. The base and top coat bottles were classy looking. Everything was packaged well. Polygel does have a learning curve for newbies, but that is nothing specific to a brand. When you first try it does require practice to get the hang of things and get professional looking results. It doesn't take long though to produce acceptable looking cute nails and in my opinion is much easier to work with than acyrlics. I have since used another popular amazon polygel so I can compare to that the product quality. Both are durable and last just as long, but modelones is far easier to work with. It's not as stiff and sticky and spreads much easier. It's not too soft either and doesn't move much if at all after you get the shape you want. It cures in 60 seconds in my 36w lamp. I also have a 6w mini lamp and it cures with that too. These are sheer/clear colors and those tend to cure better than pigmented gels. They do have the sticky layer after curing that you need to wipe off with alcohol. I noticed a lot of people dont know that and think their polygel isn't cured. And if your gel truly is not curing then it's likely that your lamp is not good, and not the polygel since this stuff cures just fine for everyone else. The clear is not cloudy and encapsulated glitters very well. The peachy color is perfect for nail beds. They are 30ml tubes so you get a lot of product. The base coat adheres to the nail very well and keeps the polygel adhered to it. Ive used it with another brand of polygel and it worked well with that too. The top coat is thick but not too thick and extremely glossy. I even use the top coat to adhere small 4mm crystals and they do not budge. The top and base are very nice quality. The slip solution works fine with the modelones gel. This polygel doesn't require a lot of it to mold the product unlike the other polygel I've tried. I did not use the dual forms. I prefer tips so I cant speak on those, but they are included if you want to use them. The file is small but very sturdy and the sandpaper on it is nice and gritty. The brush is cheaper and does not have a picker on it because it's a "travel" brush. I will say the brush end is decent to work with though. The hairs keep their thin, pointed shape and are firm. It makes working with the gel so much easier. I bought a cheap picker brush off Ebay that looks nicer but the brush is crap compared to this travel brush. The hairs on that have frayed out and it doesn't have the pointed shape anymore. I far prefer this travel brush even though it doesnt have the picker end. I definitely recommend the modelones polygel and this kit. If you are a beginner then research everything you need first. I had a uv/led lamp already and just bought some nail primer and dehydrator and some glitter and crystals to start. This kit is cheaper than buying a bigger kit so you can see if its something youd enjoy first rather than spending double the price on a bigger kit and deciding polygel is not for you. Modelones polygel specifically is good for beginners as its consistency is easier to work with compared to another popular brand. But if you dont have a lamp then buying a kit with a lamp would be advisable since youd get more for your money than buying this kit and a separate lamp. Up to you. Plenty of research should be done before you just jump in to polygel though. It is unfortunate I got a defective kit but it doesnt seem to be a common issue so I feel ok recommending this one. Sometimes things happen and as long as they are few and far between then it's not a huge deal. Amazon would have replaced it had I wanted to do so.

Estou bem satisfeita, é um mini kit mais bem completo, como é para meu uso pessoal valeu a pena. Entrega express.

Son difíciles de trabajar, se pegan mucho.

See order of photos 1. Prepared nail 2. Base coat (cure 30-60 seconds) 3. Line gel evenly in form 4. Put filled form on nail DO NOT PRESS down hard (cure 30-60 seconds) 5. Lift off form to reveal smooth nail 6. File and shape nail remove dust and top coat nail 7. Leave as is or polish with your favourite colour This product will SAVE you so much money, no longer do you need to go to a nail salon. 🥰 You'll need a UV/LED light to cure the product but there's so many cheap machines it's no big issue. ***** REMEMBER TO USE A FAIR AMOUNT OF SLIP SOLUTION ON YOUR BRUSH so it NOT sticky. Don’t over do it though ! Sanitize your nails before applying products They'll last you weeks. I'm "DEFINITELY" a repeat buyer for this product ANY Negative reviews are from people that didn't follow the instructions, I’m a former retired nail tech this product does work. When you are molding the PolyGel take your time, it WON'T HARDEN, play with it until you get it the way you want it. THEN CURE (30-60 seconds)

As a polygel newbie I found my first attempt with the nail forms to be a complete waste of time. The forms are far too curved to stay on my nails, even when using nail clamps (bought separately) I still couldn’t make it work for me. Second attempt I used sticker nail forms (bought separately) and had much better results. As you can tell from my pic, I’m very new at this. This was my second attempt took me 1.5hrs to complete and I still feel like I need to go back and touch up. Overall I feel like, with some extra practice, this will be very easy to use for shorter nails. I don’t think this would be an ideal product for long nails as the gel is quite pliable after curing and I would guess that you’d get lots of breakage or chipping with long nails. My set had clear and light pink. My pic is with the light pink and it’s very natural looking. The clear I tried on one finger and it was very clear with a tiny bit of cloudiness. The clear is so sheer I would not recommend it if you are looking for length. The pink is mildly sheer but okay to use for a wee bit of length like I have. Hope this helps! :)

El gel transparente llegó con una grieta en el costado derramando producto. Paquete llego pegajoso junto con los artículos que tenia dentro.
