MakarttPoly Nail Gel Kit with UV LED Lamp: Clear Pink Neutral Colors, Multifunctional Builder for Extension strengthener, with Slip Solution, Dual Forms, Base Top Coat, Brush All in One Starter Set

I've been doing my own UV gel nails for about 1 year, and after watching a video I decided to give poly gel a try. I purchased a form kit and gave this poly gel set a go, and overall it wasn't that difficult. My nails didn't turn out perfect, but I'm happy with them, and now I only have to wait to see how long they will last before I do my first "fill." The poly gel was unexpectedly thick (and sticky, but I was expecting that), but I kept thoroughly soaked the brush with the slip when working to shape it into the form, and overall it turned out decent enough that I won't file them off. I've got 4 colors to work with so I think these little tubes will last me a while. I did end up using a gel polish over the poly gel, but I think the color I used was pretty enough even by itself (with a top coat, of course.

Easy to use, great colors, it’s good quality and long lasting.

Well I am disappointed. I really do not like to leave reviews anyways. Main reason is because I’m usually too lazy to bother with it unless it’s something that I really really love and that’s usually the only time I will leave a review. Unfortunately though that’s not the case this time, and I felt like I needed to let people know about my experience… so first this must’ve been a returned item. However, I did purchase it brand new. There’s some stickiness all over everything and I try to get the best possible picture that I could get showing this. The box was also a little beat up. I never used poly gel before I’m usually a gel X girl I have a YouTube channel which I only show my hands and so I started doing my own nails because it was too expensive to continue going to the nail salon every two weeks to keep my nails looking nice for my viewers. I decided to transition to poly gel and heard that this was the best product to start with for beginners. I kind of figured that the poly gel bottles wouldn’t be as big as the single bottles that you buy separately, but I didn’t realize that they would be this tiny. I don’t know much about poly gel however, these small bottles can’t do more than a couple of different sets. I’m not sure about the efficiency of the actual product yet. However, if I am truly impressed after doing my nails, I will update this review. If you’d like to see how my nails turn out feel free to look me up on YouTube! Just search for Winter Wolf Readings and feel free to ask me about my nails! Still I do love that everything is included with this kit and it’s perfect for those that just learning and want a little starter kit to practice with! I love EVERYTHING from this brand usually and will certainly continue purchasing this brand in the future. If you’re still reading this review may you be so very blessed! Namaste 🙏🏼

I have mixed feelings about this product. First off what I don't like, is that even though it is 79 degrees in my house the polygel is so thick that I can't seem to find a slip solution that will make easier to use. I guess it's just not my thing. I've now tried builder gels, and those are pretty terrifically easy. ...but this Markart brand did stay on without any lifting for 2 to 3 weeks, which is much better than I got from the other, easier-to-spread brand I used. So if you get past the workability, it's a pretty good product. Another thing I did not like about their polygel is that it is a file off. I knew that going in, but I didn't understand how frightening it would be for me to try and get it off without destroying my nail bed completely. So I'm going to stick with soak off products only. I don't have any problem filing down to a certain point. But I can't file all the way.Now for the accessories they sell with the kit: the UV lamp is awesome. Especially if you travel. It is so inexpensive ($10 if bought separate) small, portable (and collapsible. Love it in a purse or carryon suitcase), and if you like builder gels where sometimes you have to hold your fingers upside down to let gravity work to form your apex, that little light can just be picked up and held upside down to cure your nails. Those 'slip your hand in under the light' setups cannot. So absolutely get the lamp no matter what product you're trying to put on your nails. Now the nail brush they sent with the kit looks fantastic with the little diamond studded lid, but I hate using it. It's not made well, the doesn't cluck on securely, it feels flimsy, and the brush wiggles as if it's going to come off the handle. I like the one I got from the other brand, Morovan, I think it was called? So much better quality. Markart's primer and dehydrator are pretty sweet. And the top gel works great over my builder gel. So with all that 'like and don't like', I hope you find what works for you.
