RC Red Carpet Manicure Pro Kit – Complete Gel Nail System with Black Pro LED Light, Long-Lasting, Chip-Resistant Gel Nails Manicure Kit for Healthy, Glossy Nails at Home.

I'm surprised at the negative reviews. I've now used this two times with beautiful results. Looks just like the salon! I'm so happy I purchased! I only polish my toes, and it has lasted a full month without a single chip both times! Incredible! I think it would easily last longer, but at that point they need to be trimmed! The kit is a great way to start because it has everything you need (except clippers), including easy to follow instructions. Just follow them, take your time, and apply thin coats. You can apply thicker coats of the polish and it will cure ok, but it will pool around the cuticle. It's very "liquidy" compared to regular polish. 3 super thin coats does great. Also, until you cure it with the light, gel polish can just be wiped off if you don't like how you applied it. As for time, it does take a little longer to apply than doing standard polish because there are extra steps and other layers to apply, but the dry time is super quick and no worries of ruining it once it's cured. The kit does come with small bottles of product, but you hardly use any for each application. Some reviewers suggested buying products individually would be more cost-effective, but I'm glad I didn't. This is a great started kit, and there's a lot of value in one stop shopping. The light is small, but I can get all five toes in. I just move slow and don't use toe separators. One thing to note is the color. I also did not receive the color that was listed, which I expected based on other reviews, but for me that was good. The listing showed a pale pink, but I received a hot/sparkly pink, which is a much better tone for me. I would consider the color a mystery, and be prepared to buy a different one if you don't like what you get. I purchased with that in mind and still would have thought it was worth it even if I hadn't like the color that came with it.

Getting my nails done at a salon seemed like a bit of a waste since I like to keep them on the short side. Love doing them myself at home now! Super easy to learn!

It seems to work pretty well and although I was worried it would be sticky it is not if you follow all the steps. Not a fan of the included color it’s a pale light almost neutral color.Pro Tip: buy a different brand color and all of it works together beautifully !!

major disappointment--did not work. too expensive for this disappointment

This set saved me so much money not having have to go to salons. Also, doing your nails at home makes you have everything clean, not worrying about sanitization and my nails under are still healthy. Just note that it is easier to apply dark colors than light - it is a paradox, but it works for me that way.

I wanted to return the item because it came with an ugly color polish and when I looked for a different one I found that most of the colors from this manufacturer are pretty ugly. Anyway, I found out I’m not able to refund this item which is always a bad option

the uv lamp is small, best to do fingers then thumb, but I did them all together.. works great. I did run it 4 cycles per coat to Make sure it dried properly. but overall it works great. the products it comes with are great as well. the base applies smoothly, the top coat is very shiny and the tools do their thing. great product overall..I also do my own dip nails and found this process easier.

Great product. It is super easy to get your nails done with this kit. It comes with everything you need. By reading the instructions and watching some YouTube tutorials I was all set. I love how the light has an automatic timer so I don’t have to worry about timing myself when curating each coat. Definitely will recommend to my friends.

After spending some time researching gel manicure kits I chose the Red Carpet Manicure Gel Polish Pro Kit.. It's a great product. Easy to use and the product lasts. I would recommend you follow the included instructions to ensure your manicure lasts. I was pleased with the colour that was included in the set.

This set is perfect for doing your nails at home. Everything is like a pro would use but in small sizes, which I like as it doesn’t take up much space. I find it very simple to use; the instructions tell everything you step by step.The actual polish and finish is every bit as good a pro, but obviously the application will take a couple of attempts to get it perfect. It didn’t take very long to do either.

So easy to use following the step by step instructions. Highly recommend and saves a fortune on having my nails done. Product is strong and long lasting. Colors are limited in my view but I simply paint over with nail varnish.

This is a great set! My nail polish lasts weeks I usually have to remove it as my nails grow not because it chips. Just like having nails done in salon

Bought this as a starter kit for my daughter as she loves having her nails done but struggled to get to a salon regularly. It’s been perfect for her. The only criticism is that the lamp is small and she has to do her nails in stages. Toes are a real difficulty.
