** The gel peels off right away, what am I doing wrong?** 1. We suggest to use a nail file or nail prep dehydrator(before base coat) to ensure your nails are completely dry, clean and oil-free. 2. It's important to avoid gel on the skin and cuticle area or it will be easy to peel off. 3. The thinner the better when it comes to applying all steps! If it's too thick, it could wrinkle easily and peel off. 4. Remember to cap the nail edge for each layer to get a long lasting manicure. 5. Or use nail strengthener (after base coat) for an extra layer of strength, the softer the nail, the easier they peel. ** Get wrinkled or bubbling after curing, why?** Reason 1 The gel polish applied too thick. Solution: We recommend Apply thin coat each layer( Thinner makes stronger.) Thick coats are hard to cure fully and easy to peel off. In general, apply 2-3 layers to get full color. Reason 2 The lamp's curing time is not long enough. Causing gel polish is not completely dry. Solution: Keep the nails curing in all directions.Place the nails under the bulbs as much as possible that help dry the gel polish. ** Why is the gel thick? ** 1. Before brush the gel, try to brush the gel on the bottle neck to make each layer thinner 2. We produced slightly thick gel polish. Because the thickness helps the gel adhere better to the natural nail and helps get a saturated color. 3. It is normal for gel polish to be slight thick when exposed to low temperatures(such as in winter or snow) if you thick it is hard to apply, please put the whole bottle gel polish into a cap of warm water, the gel polish will be thinner if it is hot. ** The gel won't cure?** Gel polish needs to be cured under the UV/LED nail lamp, cure times vary per lighting system among different brands, we recommend a minimum of 60secs with LED light, and 2 mins with UV light.

Good
The colours in the photo are quite different, I have a UV lamp and it won’t dry unless you use a top coat

Fast delivery
I like them. The colors is a bit difficult to get even with 2 layer but on a 3rd application it looks better

Not the best
Gel polish has very light pigmentation, which makes very hard to work with. Don't waste your money on this brand.

Great purchase
product experience :This is my second order of gel polishes from you guys (gellen) and I have to say I am thoroughly impressed. The application process is impeccable and it dries beautifully using the uv/led light. I have recommended this brand to all my friends who have been on the search for reliable gel polishes. Usually, after a couple days there is some chipping, however, this is not the case with these gel polishes. I can rely on its durability for up to three weeks, which is quite impressive for gel polish. To add, the price point for the value is incredible. 10/10 would recommend !

affordable and easy-value for the money
I am new to doing my own gel nail polish. I have a sister in-law who owns a salon but I moved so I don't go to her salon anymore and no one else measures up for the money... So i decided to try my own.first off...Not the same as salon and i am not very good at application, but for the money this is a good product. Some reviews state that the color doesn't match up to the listing but you have to open the bottle to see the color. To me it matches fine. Outside of that i have no complaints as any issues have more to do with my lack of experience in applying but a few Youtube videos should help that. i'm sure more expensive brands would be more durable and easier to apply but AGAIN for the money i am happy. i am looking at buying more of this brand in different colors.

I love the yellow
I specifically ordered this set because I wanted a pale yellow. I was impressed with it! It was exactly what I thought it would be. I can't recall if I did 2 or 3 coats, but if you want a more stark look I'd definitely suggest a layer of opaque white. This yellow is definitely not opaque. I'd say its translucent but you can definitely get a more opaque look with more coats. It's very pretty and great for spring. I have yet to try the other colours! I wouldn't say it wears as well as a brand name, but I change my colours up so often that does not bother me.

FABULOUS product incredible pigmentation!
I absolutely LOVE this product. I have been a certified nail technician since 2011 and rarely do my own nails. I just bought a house and I'm in the middle of renos. I came across GELLEN while buying stuff for my house and saw the Macarons shades. Since Easter is coming and these colors are beautiful I just HAD to buy them (and another two sets I'll try and review later). I am beyond excited to use these on clients and my daughter. The packaging is beautiful and the colors are stunning. I highly recommend this product. The application was flawless, I used a matte top coat but I will be trying with a regular one and will update my review then. I give this product 10/10 and I have used many and this is one I will continue to purchase ❤

Great all around
I used polish #050 and #123 from the kit, with a base and top coat from a different company. The colours are stunning! I'm excited to use the other colours in the kit. The polish was easy to use and went on smoothly. I had to use 3 coats for an even coverage but I always do especially thin coats to ensure they cure properly.After a week one nail had chipped. But that's being very rough on them, lots of dish washing, yard work, cleaning, moving car seats, chasing kids, etc. I'm impressed!
