btartboxnailsNail Tips Builder Gel - Long Lasting 15ml Builder Gel with Portable Nail Lamp for French XCOATTIPS, 30+Days French Protection Duo Nail Extension Tool for Nail Art

The media could not be loaded. Ok these deserve all of the hype !! This was my very first time doing my nails on my own and I was surprised by how easy it was an how good they turned out. Here are my thoughts:1. The nails: they are absolutely gorgeous ! Thin which I really like, although if you use the builder gel they get thicker. They are not “medium” length, they are long ! Pics attached of when I first put them on (you can also see how they look without top coat, people that say they aren’t cat eye clearly just didn’t use one) and then the final pics are after I filed them down a ton. They’re very easy to shape. They’re very curved which is great for some, my nails are flat but luckily they are pretty malleable, so I flattened them down a little and then filed them to be the perfect fit. Most people probably won’t even need to file though, it comes with really great in-between sizing and then there’s 5 sets of each size !2. Supplies: Make sure you buy the btx set of glue, builder, and top coat - no glue or anything included. If you are using that you will also need to have a UV lamp. I didn’t use the recommended nail dehydrator (not sure how long they’ll last!) I just used alcohol on my nails before starting. They feel very secure. I also filed my nails and used cuticle remover before that.3. Application tips - this is for all the other newbies out there. Wipe the glue brush against the bottle before applying to your nail and fake nail- you need less than you would think, the first couple of nails glue came out the sides when curing from having too much but I was able to get it off. The glue doesn’t do anything until cured, I was really worried I would stick the nail in a crooked position but what I did was hold it in place under the UV light for about 3-5 seconds, then pull it out and adjust the nail as the glue would be cured enough that it wasn’t sliding around but still moveable. Then I’d finish the cure. Make sure you do the final cure at the end as well, I stupidly did my nail shaping before the final cure- they stayed put but im worried there could have been some lift. The builder gel before the top coat is optional - it’ll make them more durable but this is the one part that takes some skill- you have to be really careful to apply only to the nail and not apply too much, otherwise you’ll have these jagged edges, you can kind of tell on my nail beds. Next time I may skip the builder gel and just do top coat, especially since I liked how natural they looked when they were more thin. Both builder coat and top coat get cured for 60 seconds.Anyway they are absolutely amazing I’m never getting my nails done at a salon again. Even with all the supplies, it is such a wild deal having it last for 5 sets compared to paying $100+ each time at the salon. As long as you take your time and follow all the instructions, they’ll turn out great. I can’t speak to how long they last but I’ll update this accordingly.

Sure! Here's a friendly and upbeat Amazon review based on what you shared:---I ordered the short coffin nails and they are so pretty! The shape is perfect, they have a nice thickness to them, and they feel really durable—definitely long-lasting. Just a quick tip: to get the glossy, polished look like in the seller’s photos, you’ll want to add a clear gel top coat or a bit of builder gel and cure with an LED light Once you do that, they look absolutely stunning. Overall, great quality andTotally worth the cost.

I probably won’t ever buy any other glue on nails. They’ll never come off, it’s perfect. The length, shape, color & look is amazing once your done. It feels as if you went to get them done at a salon. They don’t chip, the application process is easy. I do recommend to check out their step by step YouTube video for better results & since they stay long & I’m always active, cleaning, my job is physically heavy carrying packages & always doing something, for my liking I do need to file them sharper on the 3rd week or so & they’ll look just as fresh.

The media could not be loaded. These are the best press on nails! They can last 4 weeks or more for me. These are the best fitting and quality press ons. I spend a lot of time in prepping my nails and I use the Beauty Secrets nail glue from Sally’s. In conjunction with the quality of nails and glue, as so one who gyms and is pretty rough, they last more than most set of nails I use to get done in the past. I do a gel top coat on all my press ons for maximum shininess! I get soooo many compliments on these press ons and save a bunch of money from the high costs of nail techs these days!I got the cat eye medium length and the video does it no justice! Really beautiful and opaque enough to cover my natural nail color. I ordered the medium almond, but length wise is more of a long on me, but it’s okay! I usually spend $120ish or more on birthday nails but I enjoy the cat eyes ones so much, they’re my this years birthday nails!I also attached the French shirt almonds ones which are my go to’s!

Very natural looking and so many nails, you’ll surely find a size to fit each hand and lots more left over.

The media could not be loaded. This is my 2nd box of BTArtbox tips- 3rd manicure. I love this product!! I garden and build stuff with power tools as a hobby and this has been as indestructible as dip manicures. I use it with builder gel & beauty secrets nail glue. Lasts me 4 weeks each time, easily. I just add clear and file after the 1st 2 weeks and weekly thereafter- same as I used to do to extend my dip manicures.
