Beetles 2 Pcs 15ml No Wipe Gel Top Coat and Base Coat Set - Shine Finish and Long Lasting Soak Off LED Nail Lamp Gel Base Top Coat Finish Nail Art Design Manicure Gifts for Women

**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Quality Blooming Gel & Base/Top Coat Set!** I’m really impressed with the Beetles Blooming Gel & Base Top Coat Set. All three bottles are great quality, and the consistency is perfect—not too thick, not too runny. The blooming gel spreads beautifully and makes nail art designs so easy, even for beginners. The base coat helps the polish adhere well, and the top coat leaves a glossy, long-lasting finish without chipping. My manicures easily last over a week, and the shine stays strong. Overall, this set is an amazing value for the price. If you love doing nail art or just want a reliable base and top coat, I highly recommend giving this trio a try!

I originally purchased the Beetles gel nail kit, which includes the lamp and polish set. After running out of the original top coat, I selected this product as a replacement. The bottle size is generous, offering excellent value, and the brush is wider than the one included in the kit, allowing for smoother and more controlled application. The formula applies evenly without streaking and cures properly under a standard gel lamp, leaving a glossy, professional-looking finish. With normal wear, the top coat has maintained its shine and durability for at least two weeks without chipping or lifting. Overall, this product performs reliably and serves as a high-quality replacement— if not an upgrade-to the original top coat from the kit.

I cannot say enough good things about this product. I wish there was a way to give it more than 5 stars to fully emphasize how much I love it. I work on a horse farm and have a few horses of my own. My nails have also been incredibly thin and easy to end of break. Because of this I have always had uneven and short nails as they were constantly breaking no matter what I did. I tried the semi-cured stickers and press-on's but those never seemed to last. They would work for a week or so before they started lifting and fell off. This stuff lasts me over 3 weeks and it finally redo the nails, not because the builder get is falling off but because I have to fill in the regrowth at my nail beds! I will say the "soak off" feature is not quick and fool proof. I have read a lot of advice pages and watched a lot of videos before trying this. I file off as much of the builder gel until I think I am pretty close to my natural nail. Then I soak it for a while, generally 10+ minutes. It does not completely scrap right off after that and if I am not careful it will pull up some of my nail if I try to force it to scrape off. One of the best things you can do is watch lots of videos on technique of the application. I found lots of videos that explained how to get the proper shape/apex and smooth finish rather than the wavy finish you get if it is not laid smooth. The first time or two was a learning curve for sure. I had to remind myself that I am not "on the clock" it does not cure until you use the UV light so if it needs adjusted before that, do it! It is extremely easy to use and finishes very nicely once you get the hand of it! First I buff my nails and use nail polish remover or isopropyl alcohol to dehydrate the nails. Then I used the base coat and cure it. Then add a "slip" layer of the builder gel. DO NOT CURE. before curing that, add a bead of builder gel, starting at the cuticle and pulling it out in a semi circle towards the end of your nail. I hold my nail upside down to allow it to level. If you need it to move one way or the other, just hold you nail one way or the other and let gravity do the work! After that I cure it for 60-90 seconds. I read that one way to reduce lifting of the builder gel is to file at an angle under the builder gel to file the natural nail. I do that and then if i need to I use nail polish remover to get any dust off the stickiness of the builder gel. I also read somewhere that it can be recommended to use the same brand gel color as the brand if the base coat, builder gel, and top coat. I ordered a pack of a few different beetles gel polish colors and apply one of those next. I cure it. Then I apply top gel and cure that. I have been learning a lot and by no means am I a professional but I watched a lot of videos and read a lot of articles to get some of the techniques which really helped! The polish looks sturdy and shiny, I generally apply a color but the clear is also perfect for adding strength and shine to your nails!

I used this Beetles set for a full gel tip application, and it worked beautifully. My process: 1. Gel base 2. Gel nail glue 3. Apply gel tips (cure) 15 sec holding + 60 sec additional 4. Builder gel overlay 5. Top coat The builder gel levels nicely, adds strength, and gives a smooth, salon-style finish. No lifting, no bulkiness, and everything cured evenly. It’s easy to control and works great for reinforcing gel tips or shaping overlays. If you do gel extensions or builder overlays, this set is a great value and very beginner-friendly.

I gave these gel polish base and top coat duo 4 stars because the base coat never hardened. I did 2 cures at 90 seconds each and it was still sticky. However I did paint with my gel nail polish on top of it and it didn't have any negative effects. The top coat DID however cure one time at 60 seconds. Doing nails at home is all about being budget friendly and not having to spend the time and money in a salon. I would buy this duo again as it's priced right and overall worked for my nails.

I’m on my 4th purchase of this gel nail base and top coat, and I absolutely love it. It applies smoothly, cures perfectly, and gives my nails a long-lasting, shiny finish. My manicures last without lifting or chipping, and the quality is consistent every time. Clearly a product I trust and will keep buying!

I am new to using gel polish and it is a lot easier than I anticipated! Beetles foundation (base) coat really grips the Beetles color gel polish to my already powder dipped nails. I have thin nails so I use clear NailBoo powder dip (1 coat) over my natural nails to strengthen them. Beetles gel polish is easy to use, holds up very well, and has so many colors to choose from. I ordered the Blooming gel polish to try and create designs as I see on YT. The products go on smoothly, the colors pop, the blooming gel works great! After drying them under my LED light the nails are super shiny (with Glossy Top Coat). I did some test nails and the matte top coat looked like it was going to be shiny when I applied it, but after 90 seconds in the LED lamp it came out totally matte. The matte gel polish top coat does not smell good, at all, but it is Very Cool how it turns out. I’ve added some pictures (please don’t judge this was my first attempt at creating patterns) below for you to see the product in use. Texture is smooth, colors are bright and vibrant and so far the product is t getting clumpy. I did watch a tutorial that said to wipe your brush after coating your nail (if you dipped them first) and that seems to help with keeping the product clean.

This builder gel set performs reliably. The builder gel has a workable consistency—thick enough to build structure and apex without running, but still smooth to control and self-level. It cures evenly under UV/LED with no soft spots. The base coat adheres well with proper prep, and the no-wipe top coat finishes glossy and durable without dulling after a few days. Together, the system holds shape well and resists lifting or cracking during normal wear. Bottles are a good size and last a while, making this a practical set rather than a sampler. This is a solid option for at-home or intermediate use when you want predictable results without fighting the product.
