Beetles Gel Polish 9 in 1 Nail Glue with New Formula, 0.5 Fl Oz

Perfect Nail Tips! I absolutely love these nail tips! The extra-short almond shape is super cute and practical, and there are so many pieces included that I have plenty of options for different sets. They’re easy to work with, fit nicely, and give my nails a clean, professional-looking finish. I also really like the shape because they’re not overly long but still give that polished almond look. Great quality for the price, and having 576 pieces means they’ll last me a long time. Definitely recommend these if you like doing your nails at home!

Once you get used to using them and the amount of glue needed they work really well! The first set i did was good but popped off within the two weeks. I currently still have my 4th of july set on and its been 5 weeks! Good length for shaping and figuring out how long you want them. Since they are clear I do have to add a nude color before designs but they are really easy to paint. You do have to shape them a little to your own nail. I can apply them easily to myself, but i havent tried applying them on other people yet.

I bought these to create coffin shaped nails in a length that suits me. Coffin short is too short, not enough landscape for good nail art. , Coffin medium is just a bit too long for me. You can't really trim the coffin shape or it won't be a coffin shape anymore. I also purchased these in the almond mediums for the same reason. With the almond, I wound up with something like ballerina, which is fine but I wanted to see if I could get coffin or pretty close to it in a length I like without having to completely reshape each nail. Shaping these is very time consuming so you want to choose a shape and length that works for you pretty much as-is. When I snip off just the tip, these stiletto nails are as close to coffin as I can create without having to do a lot of work. I used an artificial nail cutter with a dial on it--$10 on Amazon and definitely the most accurate way to get all 10 the same length. I applied these nails and then set the dial on the trimmer at 5--the higher numbers on the dial will leave the nail longer. I believe the highest number is 7. The lower the number the more it will cut off. #5 takes off about 4 or 5 mm-- so the whole pointed portion, leaving just the tapered square end. I'm very happy with the results. I am new to doing full sets at home. I was misled to believe that I need to spend more than double on the Apres nails. I don't. These Beetles nails have been great so far at about 33 to 50% of the price. They wear well. I haven't experienced cracking. They're shaped and sized perfectly. I can find a size to fit each of my fingers with little to no filing down the sides. These are Beetles' reasonably new "etch x" tips that come pre-etched in the portion that covers your nail plate, saving a step in the application process. I am using Apres Extend Gel to apply these nails and I'm really happy with it. I haven't tried other brands yet, but the Apres gel seems to combine strong with gentle, so these suckers hold on really well but, unlike the glue that many brands offer, the Apres gel is gentle on my natural nail underneath so I can still grow my own nails and do a basic gel mani once in a while. One of the things I'm learning is that even when I didn't do a great job of getting the nails on right, they still last a long time without popping off using the method I'm using. I took off my first set after a week and figured out that even though there was some lifting, they very likely were not going anywhere for at least another week, maybe two. Air bubbles underneath is the biggest challenge to overcome, along with placing the back edge of the nail just close enough to your cuticle without getting too close. I either get no air bubbles but the back edge is too close, or a good placement with regard to my cuticle but in trying to be precise I let in air. Still, I'm getting a great looking full set. This mani would have cost about $125 at the salon. I've invested a few hundred dollars in equipment, supplies, and polish/art, but I have already more than paid for it in what I'm not spending on nail techs. I've watch a lot of how-to videos and I strongly suggest that if you're planning to start doing your own Gel-x nails at home. Overall good quality product at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.

I’m not a nail artist by any means but I got tired of paying crazy money every few weeks to get my nails done. I love beetles products so I started by using one of their gel nail polish kits just to see if it was worth the money (which didn’t cost me more than $25 for the entire kit). Then I thought, what if I could do the acrylic nail kit myself 🤔 all I have to say is… best idea ever! There are options like Sally Hansen or KISS to do acrylics at home but those take lots of practice and if you’re like me, I didn’t have time for practice. Nor did I want to try it out and have crazy messy looking nails. I will first say that it is super easy to use this kit and is paired well when used with one of the beetles gel nail kits. I recommend purchasing both as the acrylic nail kit comes with everything you need except the foundation base gel that you need to attach the nails but that can even be bought separately from beetles at $8 or so per bottle. I work in a warehouse so I do get scuffs and scratches on my nails that need to be buffed out and a top coat reapplied but that’s what makes this kit reliable. I highly recommend adding a few layers of gel polish just to ensure you don’t crack the acrylic nails which has happened to me but was a simple fix with some nail glue and gel polish. The acrylics are slightly thin but that just makes them more flexible and easier to form to your nail when you press them down to cure. Afterwards, the durability is just as good as salon nails that you would spend $70+ for. They’re super long giving you great options for your choice of length. The adhesion process keeps them super sturdy and reliable! My last set lasted almost a month before I soaked them off and redid them for Easter! Another recommendation, buy all the tools you need to remove acrylics and soak them for a whole 20 mins in 100% pure acetone. It’s softens them completely and makes it so easy to remove!

I love these Beetles, 🪲 however, I expected a little better quality as they rip sometimes due to them being very thin, but still good for a few days of wear at least. 📆 I’ve experimented with 3 different kinds of glue with them and I’ve noticed that they pop off pretty easily if I accidentally smack them against a hard surface. The good thing is you can just glue them right back on lol. 🧴💅💕 They look nice and natural and will take any polish nicely. ✨Wonderful array of sizes per kit. Killer variety of styles and lengths available in: •oval •coffin •square •stiletto {≈^x^≈} ~ all these styles come in extra short, short, medium, long and (I think) extra long. Very pretty! 🌸 🍓 _ __ ___ _____

These nail tips are absolutely amazing. I use them all the time and last a long time. In a soak of they start to bend and give which is exactly what I want in nail extensions so I'm not struggling to get them off and ripping my nails. They are slightly longer than expected but easily trimable and shapeable. They come preettched which is such a time saver and so worth it. I love how it's clear and blends well into the nail, so color wise clear is the way to go. The photo shows the nail tips at their max length minus some smoothing. There are so many nail tips in this and will last me such a long time. The nails never break and stay on so well. I use the beetles UV cure nail glue and they never snap and last so long. The whole nail comes off close to the end of the set's life and they are so so good I can't say it enough . Would so recommend! Great brand!

Easy to use they typically last me two weeks feel just like acrylics at a fraction of the cost 💲

I like it. It was my first time using gel nails and I did struggle a little with the first set I think I wasn’t curing longer than I should have so when I washed my hands the nails popped off. So when I did it the second time I ACTUALLY followed the instructions lol so far my nails are holding up. The medium square length is a little long for me however though I love square nails and I’m overall satisfied with them. The more I do the better I will get at it. But I’m happy with the products.

Really good bond for gel tip/extensions. I always have trouble with gel just peeling off my nails but this holds really well. Really smooth application too, just the right consistency. Very happy and excited to try out the different applications

He usado la línea de beetles por mucho tiempo, tengo una infinidad de productos de la línea y han salido super bien. Yo sí recomiendo todos sus productos.

J’aime beaucoup le kit. Il y a tout ce dont ont a besoin! Par contre le gel pour coller l’ongle reste toujours un peu gluant et ça tient seulement 2semaines.

Love it!! I was worried at first after reading mixed reviews but It does not disappoint. I got the kit that included a nail dehydrator and primer. It’s so cute and easy to use. The colour is also beetles cat eye gel polish and clear top coat to finish. Absolutely stunning and impressed with the durability of the nails.

I went with the long ones to make it easyer to apply the tips. Amazing product very happy
