Pros: The French is perfect because it is machine pressed or machine made. It's smooth, thin to the surface of the nail, and the smile line is impeccable. It is indeed gel. It has a perfect gelly look to it, matte or glossy, and doesn't crease when bent, making it fast, easy and accurate when making a pinched set of nails. Easy to layer over top of polygel, hard gel, gel glue, or traditional air dry glue. They take all types of polish and top coats oh so dreamily. When layered with gel glue, polygel or hard gel, they're easy to keep as reusable press ons. Cons: I wish the pink was a little more opaque, a little brighter and a little bit more of a cotton candy or bubble gum color. I use polygel or hard gel under these because otherwise there's a semi sheer pink gap between my finger tip and where the French smile line begins. I don't use them with traditional air dry glue on their own for this reason. If they were a little more opaque and a little pinker, I would be able to, though. They're so close to perfect for me. The pink short almond set came with all the pieces in a plastic box, loose. I hated that. I think that the strips are by far more professional, convenient, attractive and easy to size. I returned them because unfortunately several nails were clipped at the tips, so were more like coffin instead of almond like the rest of the nails in the set. I wound up ordering their Pink Short Square instead. 4/25/2023: I got the short pink square set today and got them on. I'm in love!!! That's my left thumb. I installed this set with my favorite nail bed polygel of all time, Rosè from Makartt. I have some pink, opaque builder gel coming from Makartt later this week, and I'll redo my nails then with it instead because I want a bit more coverage and thinner cuticles that I don't need to sand down, which does create a rougher, faker look for me if I can't do it perfectly... extra tough to do with my non dominant hand! But these nails are incredible, in my opinion. I can file them down at the cuticle area before applying if I need them shorter while preserving the French tip, they're sturdy enough for me while still being thin enough, I love the pink color, the box contains 5 to 10 sets for my personal use depending on whether I use hard gel or polygel, and they can be reused as pressons. Now the pro tip. Have you ever heard of the cuticle pocket? Opening the cuticle pocket is the secret to getting nails that look and feel exactly like Russian salon nail services. If you look on YouTube, search "how to open and clean the cuticle pocket nails" or something very similar. I know my photo isn't the greatest, but hopefully you can see the depth between the nail and cuticle area. If you open that cuticle pocket, clean it, then carefully insert the press on slightly under it, it looks incredibly crisp and it prevents lifting even further. Another pro tip, one I figured out myself: If these nails are too sheer for your liking, buy or use a jelly polish on the underside of the nails first, one to three coats, and then fill the under side with non stick sculpting gel. Pressing down on the cuticle area forward to the tip, you'll retail the nice thin cuticle area under the pocket too. Then you'll also want to secure the nail with a clear UV clip. Place it right at the cuticle area firmly, then bake in the light for 90 sec. Then top coat to seal the French tip. Voila. Another general note, if you insert the nail under your cuticle, it shortens the press on. BTA Frenchies are in general perceived to be kinda long.. your opinion of the length depends on the length of your applied area, so, from chosen cuticle area (some people leave some space between the press on and their cuticle, some people gently push back and clean the cuticle to apply for a snug fit, some apply against the untouched cuticle, and some, like me now, give the cuticle the full cut, push and clean, then insert underneath) to the free edge of the finger tip. If you insert these into the pocket, suddenly too long "short" press ons become much shorter.. in my new opinion, just right. I love BTA French tips.

Great nail tips! Only complaint I have is the white part of the French tip tends to chip easy but that might be my top coat application. If u want salon quality nails these are good!

With a coat of builder gel and a gel top coat these will look perfect and last for weeks! Size was perfect with a classy girl length.
