Beetles Gel Nail Polish Kit with U V Light - 16 Pcs 8 Color Gel Polish Kit | Starter Set Pink Nude Purple Grey Glitter Color Gel and Base & Top Coat Soak Off DIY Kit Manicure Gifts for Women

This is going to sound like a fake review because I’m so hyped about this, but this is one of my best Amazon purchases of all time. If you like having your nails done / spend money on manicures at the salon on a regular basis (or even if you just want to start), this will seriously change your life. I have no reason to go to the salon anymore. I just can’t justify the expense now that I have this kit. For the price I had very low expectations, but I’m blown away by the quality and amount of stuff you get with this kit! It really works and it’s so easy!!! It’s SOOOO much faster than painting your nails the old way. As long as you can paint with your non-dominant hand (even if you can’t yet, it just takes practice), you can do a full gel manicure or pedicure in 10-15 minutes. It’s literally just file/buff, base coat, UV light, color, UV light, top coat, UV light - DONE. Or you can really take your time with it and get creative with tips, nail art, etc. The kit comes with really good quality nail files and tools too which alone are worth more than the price of the whole kit. And the colors are beautiful (just as pictured). Truly cannot recommend this enough. Also recommend buying a nail kit bag too (the ones that are made specifically to hold the UV light and tools and have little compartments for the polishes). Love love love!!!Ps: if you have any funky nails that bother you, you can buy clear press-ons on Amazon (fingers or toes!) and *good quality* nail glue, and paint the press on just like the other nails with the gel polish and UV light and it works great. My big toe press on has been going strong for 2 weeks!

I bought this kit due to the inexpensive price, and it far exceeded my expectations. The directions were easy to follow and quality, organized products were easy to use. The picture is my first try. I think it went really well. If you zoom in, you can see I need to do a little better job of cleaning the excess on my skin before using the Led light. After 2 days of the manicure, I see no signs of chips or peeling. I love the light, nuetral colors in thus kit. The coats and polishes are thicker and easy to apply without having drippage everywhere. I will buy a couple of bolder colors once I get more practice. I am very happy with this product and even happier to not spend hundreds at the salon.

Pretty good brand. Quality is alright.

This kit is perfect for beginners with lots of colors and easy-to-use tools. The polish lasts well and the UV light works fine. Good value overall. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

My daughter bought this for my Mother’s Day gift! I’ve been really happy with this Beetles UV light system. It’s simple to use right out of the box—no complicated setup, just plug it in and it’s ready to go.It cures my gel polish evenly and fairly quickly, and I haven’t had any issues with spots not drying or anything like that. I also like that it’s roomy enough to fit my whole hand comfortably, which makes doing my nails at home a lot easier.For the price, it feels like a solid, reliable lamp. I’ve used it several times now and it’s been consistent every time. Definitely a good option if you’re doing your own gel nails at home and don’t want to spend a lot.Polish in video is beetles black polish with beetles purple cats eyes polish

The kit itself it wonderful, you get a nice lamp with variable timings plus an auto light feature when something is put under the light, your chosen colors (I chose the greys and nudes, they all look beautiful and apply like butter), and some nail care tools; clippers, block and card files, cuticle trimmers, and some other stuff.The base coat is a commitment, if you don't plan on wearing the polish for a few weeks don't use it as it bonds with the natural nail, causing tears if you try to remove. The base coat and colors all cured at their respective 90 seconds (I do 120 for all just to be safe), the top coats however, cure practically instantly and start burning. I'm not sure if I got a bad batch or what but they start burning your fingers if you just put them under the lamp. I had to apply, flash cure under the lamp for no more than 2 seconds to avoid burning, then cure a solid 8-10 inches from the lamp for about 20 seconds, and then put them under the lamp normally. I'm assuming it's just an old batch I have that made it cure instantly but just be warned.Other than that I will definitely be getting more colors from this brand and also searching to see if they have a hard gel system.

1/13/21-As for right now I give this 5 stars! First of all it was delivered really fast. When it came, everything that was supposed to be there was in the box, only thing was one of the polished had leaked slightly, but it wasn’t bad and nothing a little polish remover couldn’t take care of.So let me just say, this kit is NICE. Especially for the price. The quality of the products is way better than I was anticipating, and it was all very easy to use. (This coming from someone who is honestly relatively good at doing her own nails) The kit came with two little pamphlets on using the products the right way and using the LED lamp properly and efficiently. What was really helpful and insightful was the Q&A in one that had questions about when your manicure doesn’t come out right, read it first so you know what to do and not to do in those cases.Overall I am very happy with this purchase and time will tell how long the manicure lasts!!!UPDATE 2/11/21: I have changed my rating to 3 stars. I have done a few manicures on myself over the past month of having this kit and honestly- it just doesn’t last. Manicures will last a week, AT MOST. The pedicure I did has lasted weeks, but not manicures. After about 4 or 5 days, the polish starts peeling away from the nail around the cuticle area. So all in all, this kit is great for very temporary gel manicure, and looks great for the first few days. But length of wear just doesn’t last unfortunately.

I LOVE to have my nails painted - they always look so nice. However regular polish won’t stay on longer than 1 day without chipping and looking crappy so I hate wasting time on that.Going to the salon is great - my nails always look good, but it’s not as convenient as at home - PLUS I HATE how thin and brittle my nails get after I have them done professionally. I ask them not to file them so thin but they always do. So I’m left with thin brittle nails that peal and tear so easily.In comes Beetles 😍. I followed the directions EXACTLY (mostly - see below). File nails just to remove the shine (so they don’t get thin), push cuticles back, trim cuticles, and file/shape. I then rinse my hands with water & wipe my nails with alcohol wipes to be sure I get all the oil off. Thin layer of base coat, 2-3 thin layers of color, and thin layer of top coat. Be sure to cap the ends - this can be tedious but is so important to keep the ends from chipping and wearing off.A couple variations- the instructions say 60 seconds under the light. But all the bottles vary 60-120. I do 90-120 on all layers and twice on 120 for top coat (just to be sure lol). Then I wipe them again with an alcohol wipe - that’s it! These will last me up to 2 weeks, although I like to change the colors regularly because it’s fun lol.Taking them off is also super easy with a blue bottle of “Gel Remover” quick remover for gel nails. Highly recommend this - no soaking required 😉Since Beetles has such an amazing color pallet I have a lot of colors. I did notice some of the colors do not match the color label on top of bottles the best so I bought some nail color things I could paint so I know exactly what each color will look like.Highly recommend this product - nails have super beautiful color and shine - plus they last

Me encantó, trae 6 colores, sus bases de gel un kit de manicure.Super fácil de aplicar, queda como hecho por profesionales . el gel dura en las uñas sin maltratarse. Brillan cómo recién hechas.

everything in there is high quality for the price. even though the brush hairs were falling out at the start, it is fine now. the colours as you would expect are not the exact same but they are beautiful nude jelly colours. if i had to comment on the colours they are slightly darker then what the pictures perceive them as. the light is easy to use and doesn’t feel flimsy and really cheap too. love everything in the kit and would buy the products again!!!!

Amé los colores, el diseño y todos los accesorios. Llevo dos semanas con la primera aplicación y está intacta! 💅🏻 Sin duda 10/10!

This works so well. I'm so surprised considering the price but it is all amazing. The light is a little small but totally works!
