HONEST REVIEW WITH TIPS!!!! It’s long, but worth the read!
I found out about poly gel nails from TikTok videos. For months, I thought about trying it out. Since I was stuck in quarantine I decided to look the product up in more depth. I reviewed a plethora of different brands (went down so many rabbit holes, sheesh) and watched a few tutorial videos. I decided it was best to go with this one for a few reasons.Here are 10 NEED TO KNOW TIPS:1. Almost ALL products are gonna have at least one bad review (probs more if it has more reviews). This one was the best one to me and I’m glad I picked it.2. If you aren’t a professional then it’s gonna take PRACTICE. Don’t think you can just become a doctor by watching Grey's Anatomy... c’mon now.3. It was easy to use compared to actual acrylic and not sticky if you use the correct solution.4. I bought my own UV/LED nail light on amazon for like $19.5. I also bought my own primer (ITS NEEDED) & I used a 70% Alcohol solution to help shape/mold the gel.6. Start off with shorter nails FIRST. Don’t get cocky your first time and try to do some long stiletto nails when you haven’t even figured out everything.7. Prep your nails before anything. Prep. Prep. Prep. That means, wash ya nasty hands, dry off, file/shape/trim, push back or trim cuticles, file your whole nail gently (the whole nail people), buff a little, and add your primer or dehydrator. DO IT. IT MAKES THEM LAST LONGER. Help get your moneys worth.8. Speaking of lasting longer... Don’t glob a lot of gel on at first! You should start off small and add more if needed- don’t be wasteful.9. Also, make sure to not press too hard on the nail forms to decrease any spillage or bubbles (clean around the cuticle area with alcohol dampened brush to remove excess).9. Follow the instructions Aka: apply base coat, cure under lamp 30-60 sec, apply poly gel with brush that is slightly dampened with alcohol solution, shape gel, cure for 90-130 sec (better safe than sorry, so cure them long), then WIPE OFF with a cotton ball that has rubbing alcohol on it to get rid of the stickiness, shape/file the whole nail even if the shininess is tempting to keep (this is important), apply top coat evenly, cure again for a long time, wipe off again with alcohol, apply cuticle oil, and boom you’re done.I hope this can at least help one person. I love it and everything came perfectly packaged. The colors are great, file works wonderfully, brush/applicator is nice quality, nail forms fit my nails, and came with a lot of them. The tubes are “small” to some people, but if you use my tips on not being wasteful and how to make them last long then you’ll be fine. Goodluck!!

Learning curve but works well
I have tried dip sets, I can’t figure out how to keep them from cracking. Regular gel I still have issues with it chipping early. I have to keep my nails short for my job and they sometimes are thin and I wanted to keep some nail integrity. This took some practice but they came out really decent. I was able to freehand them without the forms well after some trial and error— the forms were too curved for my nail beds and the ends ended up thick with them and i couldn’t stand it—but free handing the gel into place worked awesome. It’s been a few days and they seem solid. This will be my new go to.

Not bad for a first timer
I live in the country and there aren't any nail salons nearby so I've decided to try polygel extensions. The polygel seems to work well, it does level itself out a bit which was helpful. Two of my nails lifted after a couple weeks but I wash dishes by hand daily and it was my first time so I'm sure as my skill improves the nails will last longer. The brush this set comes with is awful though, it's thin and flimsy and doesn't spread the gel well at all so I've ordered a firmer brush. Overall I'm happy with the purchase and I think it's great for beginners.

Prettier than I thought.
I thought these would be solid colored as I am a beginner with poly gel. The consistency is nice. BUT the shimmer in ALL the colors was unexpected sooo pretty! The only negative to this kit for me was it doesn't come with the clips to help hold the nail in place while smoothing the underside.

Mixed emotions 🫤
I was so excited to use this when I got it. I prepared the nail as usual push and remove cuticles, then buff, clean, dehydrate, and prime the nail before the base. And let me tell you it’s pointless within 12 hours they began popping off some breaking (and they were not thin to be snapping in half) and before someone thinks/says it… all edges were sealed and cleaned, there were zero air bubbles, and the nail strength was tested as soon as they were completed and they weren’t going anywhere I don’t understand what changed. Couldn’t even make a week.***UPDATE***I tried again and it’s been 3 weeks not one has fallen. The main difference is the length of the natural nails when I used the product. This time, I used it for adding length to already long and healthy nails Vs the first time I used it on my friend who has soft and brittle nails. So I’d say it can work if there is some existing length to the nail but I would not recommend for people whose nails are short on the skin, or very brittle or flexible. I followed the exact same prep process but as I stated hers completely popped off within a few days while mine have lasted 3 weeks and the only difference is the integrity of the nail.

Colour is not matching the pictures
Colour is not matching I was expecting to be more deep coral colour turn out but pinkish (colour number 192). Other than that easy to use first time doing my nails by myself . I would say not bad to begin with

Beware sensitive fingers!!
The media could not be loaded. I want so bad to be able to give more stars because this is the strongest brand I’ve tried so far (as in they don’t break after a day) But I found it takes FOREVER to cure, and also, GAVE ME CHEMICAL BURNS ON MY FINGERS. I’ve used other brands of poly gel that have not done this to my fingers. My finger tips have been in so much pain for a week now. And once the skin starts to grow back it just dries up and peels more. So if you have sensitive skin I would not recommend.
