beetles Gel Polishwith 2X Faster LED Nail Lamp 6 Colors Manicure Kits with Base Top Coat Baby Blue Yellow Pink Art Salon Diy Home

I was really impressed with the quality of this kit for the money. I have gone back to gel after nearly ruining my nails at salons as they use electric files and burn up my nail beds, my last visit was the last straw as i feel they just dont take care and realize theres a human attachednto those finders and drilling a nail file into the nail bed burns and hurts you! Hello... They are thin and brittle right now and I came across a utube channel for a batural salon that recommended gel to protect the nail while your nails grow out 6-8 week and allow them to heal. I have a really bad nail biting habit and when they grow out they tendtoo break. I have had mixed feelings about gel in the past but I thought this polish went on evenly and cured well with the light. I also thought the color was true to the description and so far hasn't chipped. I work in physical therapy and wash my hands a million times a day and use oil based lotions so I will be testing out and update my review. Great color selection and the kit came with many higher quality tools. I also LOVED the buffer file that came with, was perfect on my natural nails that are very thin and fragile right now...will be ordering more colors if this polish lasts more than a week. The only thing this kit didn't include was a primer which in my experience is a must on natural nails to get your base to stick. I didn't use the base or top coats included so I can't speak to their quality I like to use the venalisa brand because it doesn't scratch like others I've used, but based on the quality of the color I'm open to trying the beetle brand that came in the kit. It feels a little thicker but will go on evenly, just do two coats and make sure your first coat is thinner. Base coats should also be thin so they completely dry before adding the next layer of polish.

I love the set, it's very affordable. The only problem was that the cord for the uv light was not compatible. So I can't use it until I find one that fits.

Within 2 months of use i developed an allergy (after having had my nails done for years prior). Burning under nails, skin peeling, dermatitis (very sore rash). I only used the beetle gel polish and uv light that came with it. Had to pay for a dr appointment and dermatologist too. I do not recommend buying these products

Had had to get my own starter kit, because my daughter moved out and took all her nail stuff with her, boo hoo.. We love Beetles products, so I stuck with what I knew I’d love. The light that came with this kit is ok, but the light my daughter has with hers, you can set the timer and it shows the countdown on it, and I like that one better, but I don’t notice any difference performance wise. The kit comes with everything you need to get started, with the exception of remover. Be prepared to spend all your savings on your new hobby. It’s addictive! Lol!

The order arrived quickly and was nicely packagedThe cable was US (I think) plug, definitely not AU. Needed to hunt for a adapter.The button on the UV light does nothing, the light just stays on, so I have to time the 60 seconds on my phone.The polish burns for 10secs after putting hand under light, it's less intense with each coat but bear that in mind if buying for younger people.Ok colour selection, a lot were similar and a lot of glitter options. I knew it would be a mixed bag but I thought a few more variation of colour would come.Polish lasts longer than normal yes, but it was chipping within 3 days and peels off.Second attempt had the polish wrinkle when under the light.
