Lavender Violets Gel Nail Polish Kit 27+3 Colors Red Pink Purple and Green Soak-off UV LED Nail Gel with Base, Matte and Glossy Top Coat C703

I always use this product on a hard gel overlay. Then go in with this brands base coat, color, then top coat. I never have peeling. The colors are tiny bottles but perfect for personally use. I love how pigmented they are. I use one coat and have smooth opaque coverage. The top coat is so shiny and stays shiny. better than all of the professional brands i have used. I have four color sets now and will buy more.

I love these nail polishes! I own several sets from Lavendar Violets, and this is my favorite. I love the matte top coat, and the variety of red tones. The glitter colors are great for accents oe french manicures. I find they easily last 2-3 weeks when you prep the nail correctly. The only down side is they come in little black bottles and the color is not viewable when they're in their holder. I did paint each polish color on a sticker and put the sticker on the handle of the polish, problem solved!

The only reason why I didn't give it a 5/5 was because the item arrived damaged. One of the nail polish was open/ cracked so it leaked all over the other items in the box. I was not able to mail it back because it is a "hazardous material". Therefore kept it. Because of that I decided to still use the items. I like the quality of the nail polish, it lasts a very long time. Then the variety of colors is just great. I would recommend. It's great for beginners.

It’s a beautiful kit with all the colors you’d need. Only wish the bottles were a bit bigger. Can only see a few uses per bottle. And I do nails so maybe that’s why. Haha but overall nice n thick polish perfect for one coat and dries well with UV lamp. Will buy all sets soon.

At first I thought... This stuff was terrible... :( A huge waste of money. The bottles are super super tiny. The polish was super super thick and clumpy almost as if they were old and dried out. It was super sad and disappointing and a waste of money. But then.... I didn't want to buy more until I used this up so I gave them a chance and although they go on a little rough because they are thick and the brushes don't allow for a lot of precision... if you work with some of the glitter colors they turn out very beautiful. The solids I would prefer a bit thinner and easier to work with or better brush tips but overall... better than I first thought.

So easy to do yourself!

I bought this and a different 27 color kit from lavender violets. I opened the box to find that I did not like the consistency of some of the polishes (some were goopy, some were gritty), so I decided not to open the other box and start the returns process right away. When you click on the link for returns, it says that for safety reasons it cannot be returned due to the flammability of the product. Really, Amazon? You shipped it to me in a box that was too large with not nearly enough protective packing materials. How's that for safety? Now I'm out $60 and stuck with both kits. Awesome.Anyway, I do a ton of online shopping and tend to read every review I can, good and bad and decide whether I should put any weight into the bad reviews. A lot of bad reviews on this were vague so I decided to go for it. It's actually embarrassing how much time I spend analyzing every little purchase no matter how small. I spent weeks trying to decide which gel polish kits to buy so hopefully my review helps overthinkers like me.I figured I knew what I was getting myself into. I knew the bottles would be really small. Since I'm just getting my collection of gel polish started, I was okay with this. I figured I would see what colors I liked and used the most and replace them with bigger bottles of the same color from other brands as they ran out.Upon finding out this item wasn't returnable, I decided to swatch all the colors. I am aware that colors on monitors can vary and can look a little different in person than listing photos. I have a high end computer monitor that has been very accurate so far. Usually the color of what I receive is either spot-on or very close to what I see on my computer screen.Based on that experience, I feel like the colors in this listing are deliberately misrepresented. Shades 223, 122, 218, 131, 115, 127, 128, 129, 142, 138 & 239 are all good and fairly close to the listing's color and are good to excellent opacity. They're a little clumpy but overall workable. Unfortunately that leaves more than half the colors that are problematic.Shades 105, 113, 115 & 143 are all in the same family of (bright) reds and very close to the same shade. 119 on the listing is shown as a pretty mauve pink and in reality is an orangey salmon color. 202 is pretty accurate, but is translucent and would need at least 3 coats. 225 & 213 are identical in shade and shimmer, 225 is just higher opacity. 208 & 209 are lightly tinted transparent shimmer overcoats. 235 & 236 are lightly tinted transparent glitter overcoats. All four are presented in the listing as opaque standalone shades. 136 looks like a pretty dark purplish mauve in the listing and really is just a weird purple-brown. 204 in the listing is a pretty red-purple shimmer. It's a translucent shimmery hot pink and you'd need 3-4 coats for full opacity. 211 is translucent and would need about 3-4 coats for full opacity. There's simply not enough in these bottles for that. 214 is a pretty champagne colored shimmer in the listing and is really an ugly opaque beige with some shimmer.You absolutely get what you pay for. Spend a little more on a better brand.

These colors are nice if you are looking for more subtle somewhat neutrals and it is a different assortment than the other set. I like the variety and qty. the polish lasts much longer on toes and the shine stays on until you take it off. The nails don’t last as long but I still think the polish is worth the price. No strong smell.

Have used several of the colours mostly over builder gel but also on my own nails. Not had a problem with chips or smudges etc. The bottles are little but there are so many colours I've been doing one manicure every 10 days or so and still haven't used half of the colours!Good for a beginner as long as you have a decent UV lamp and you do all your prep properly before you start.

Love all the lavender violets gel polish, my friends and family love me doing there nails with these polishes as there is always a great finish, and last long! Would definitely recommend to buy these.

Easy to use not thick like some gel polishes
