MakarttSolid Gel Builder-4 in 1 Nail Extension 3D Sculpting Gel UV Nail Glue for Acrylic Nails Rhinestones Gel Molding Gel Hard Gel for Nails UV/LED Nail Lamp Required Clear 15ML 2 Bottles

I never give five stars for anything. But this shocked me to no end. I've been using UV cure gel polish for a hundred years and always dread removing it. I usually get sick of the color before it grows out, so I end up changing it at 2-3 weeks. But the acetone removal is the pits, and that cotton ball aluminum business is for the birds. I ended up following a professionals advice and soaking my fingertips in a shallow bottle of acetone. Who would have thought it doesn't dry out my cuticles or anything. But I read the reviews for this and thought I would give it a try. The pictures people posted were really helpful. The warning not to let it get on your skin because it burns is accurate. But. After buffing the top coat like you do when you use acetone, I brushed it on and low and behold the polish just started to peel right off. I reapply on the spots where the polish was still stuck and a very light amount of pressure with the pusher gets it off. No more scraping my nails and soaking for 15 to 20 minutes to get the gel off. I can't recommend this enough. I also should mention it is extremely thick, and lays down a heavy coat which you need. Don't be surprised when you open the bottle and find a big brush with very thick gel. Be sure not to get it on your skin, because I'm fussy I actually use a headlamp and reader glasses so I don't have a problem with that. If you do get it on your skin, just take a paper towel and wipe it off. The burning stops, and the fact that it does that doesn't really surprise me given how will it works.

I had acrylic nails for five years and took a break. Not really wanting to go back to appointments having to sit there. I saw YouTube video about this product and thought that would be perfect. I bought the set that included the LED light which actually does CURE the product and the LED nail polishes. I was very happy with that because I had bought a bigger unit that didn’t seem to work, so I was a little nervousThe material is very hard in the jar. I just took out the tiniest bit of the clear and warmed it in my palm and then applied it to my nail and pressed it out. It’s very important. To use BASECOAT, otherwise your new nail just pops off. If that does happen to you just use the LED BASECOAT to glue the nail back on it with the LED light. Make sure you get enough to coat the inside of the nail and the new fingernail, wipe up the excess and cure it. A couple things about the basecoat. It’s it cures sticky, so it is not the same as the topcoat. The acrylic nail set that came with the kit covers your whole nail bed. It’s not extensions and then you apply this product over the top. It’s a different way to do your nails and I didn’t use those. I did try to use them for shaping. But the tool that comes with a kit works a lot better.Keep your start thin. I did get a couple nails too thick. It’s difficult to file down. So I started putting it on really thin. And building to get the shape I was happy with.I decided to start out a little bit shorter than I initially thought. It just didn’t look right, because I went from not having nails for a long time to doing this. The product is a little difficult to create an extension out of because if you place something to hold it while you press it out it and then when you take that away it it sticks to it, so go slow, take your time build up the nail the way you want it super thin and make sure you do your BASECOAT first. The file that comes with the set is ROUGH & curved and it works well. You can shape this product.I did buy an electric drill style file machine from Amazon(I recommend this, because it’s affordable and saved my nail experience):Electric Nail Drill, Urbuti 35000RPM Professional Nail Drill Machine, Portable Rechargeable File Machine Set for Acrylic Gel Nails, Manicure Pedicure Tools for Home and Salon Use(White)Also, if you don’t have any nail buffers at home, you might want to get some, because when you file it is rough and finish needs to be smooth.It the kit comes with the coarse nail file and the two shaping tools.A silicone paddle one that’s good for like creating crisp edges at your cuticles and you probably could use it under the nail to get a clean edge but it didn’t really work for me. That way I just used it on the cuticle edge.Take your time to do this it took me a couple days because I had to order the shaping machine and keep your nails thin, because you won’t be happy if they’re too too thick, they’ll just look clunky and awkward. And it really is tough stuff, so once you get it on there, it requires effort to reduce by filing. I’m looking forward to them growing out and doing FILL & creating some length that way.Update: the created nails all popped off within 4 days. But I am loving this gel base and top coat, it makes my nails stronger and shiny. The uv putty has a future for doing small repairs, because it can be shaped and cured so fast. If I want to do a chip repair or something with my jewelry this is a great tool. I.e. I chipped my opal in my ring and was able to use clear and white to repair it and polish it out. Saved me replacing it for nie. Opals are fragile and this material may be stronger. So I will see how long the repair lasts. But at least I can enjoy my ring again. I plan to buy more gel polish by this company because it truly cures with the mini light and my DND brand doesn’t.

I had to copy this from the Beau Angel item from Makartt, which this is. Apparently this particular color is either no longer available or just out of stock and my review can no longer be accessed via that page. Nevertheless, I also have the trial kit colors, which are just as amazing as the Beau Angel. So I have posted it to this page, verbatim. Also had to post a different pic. Review follows:Works great!! I applied these soft gel nails with this hard builder gel and it worked like a charm. It's easy, quick and is easy to get under the lamp to cure. You can adjust the nail, straighten it and pull off any gel that oozes out around the nail. I flash cured all 4 fingers at once in a small lamp, then did my thumb. I finished the cure after all five digits on one hand were flash cured. Repeated on the other hand. I applied and cured a clear no-wipe top coat and done, no filing or shaping required. My natural nails are very weak (thank you, type 2 diabetes) and this works FANTASTICALLY! My nails can be filled in, the nail can be soaked off with the top coat without damaging the hard gel underneath. Then it can be filed off and residue soaked off or filled in. I should say I am not a professional nail tech but this is EASY and works pretty well. The last color hard builder of this brand was super easy to remove with a file and acetone, so I could apply this one. Makartt is the only brand I have used and it is amazing!
