Makartt 3d Gel Nail Art: 4-in-1 3d Nail Gel Sculpting Gels White Non-sticky for Extension, 15ML Solid Builder Nail Gel UV Glue for Acrylic Tips, Rhinestones & Sculpture Gels for Nails Art Salon Home

Personally, I have bought several types of non stick gel from this and another brand because it makes my nails much more manageable and enjoyable to keep up. I make my own press ons and this type of gel is a must have for me because it's clean, easy to use, and the coverage is entirely controllable. Let me explain. In my photo, I've mixed the Khaki Rose and Clear. The KR is way darker than the ad shows, so I used half Clear in my mix for this set. It's almost a perfect "nude" for me. I'll get some White at some point to make it my absolute nude match, but until then, this looks incredibly natural. I also prefer a slightly sheer nail bed/ nail bed extension, so adding Clear takes this full coverage gel to a semi sheer gel that gives my press on nails a mysterious depth and interplay with light, in my opinion, which I think looks highly attractive on me. I see a lot of reviews complaining about longevity... maybe this can help: I see it as a good thing that they pop off because that means I won't be stuck with a nail I hate for days or weeks. But if you want it to stay the first time around, I suggest dehydrating your nail bed with alcohol or nail polish remover after giving yourself a cuticle removal and push back service, which leaves you with an open, clean cuticle pocket. YouTube videos can teach you how to do these. Then apply some Young Nails bonder liquid as instructed for the product, and after that's dry, go ahead with the nail application. I can almost guarantee you that that nail will be on there for at least 2 weeks. If that doesn't work, it's likely that you're exposing your hands too much, too often to water and or oily products. Go easy on the cuticle oil, okay? Also, the bigger your nail bed, the more surface area your nail enhancement has to grab on to. That's really important. When I want to change this set out, I'll use my makartt glue debonder (and I use their brush on super glue for nails, btw- best glue I've ever tried in value and performance), then clean my natural nails with nail polish remover, service my cuticles, wash my hands, and either fill and press a brand new set or pull out some finished, desired press ons that is already filled and pressed before. I'll gently clean the insides of these with a little nail polish remover, sanitize them with a quick dish soap wash, dry them and put them in a box for later. That's how I do it. I'm wearing BTArtbox Nude French Medium Almond Soft Gel Nails in the photo. I am obsessed with their French 3 Layer Soft Gel Nails. They're the only French press on nails I use. In my picture I've used a matte top coat on the whole nail, including generously around all the free edges to protect the white tip. Personally, I refuse to go to a salon ever again. Gel press ons are where it's at for me. I've loved my own nail work far more than any slop shop I've ever paid, with faster results, much less chemical exposure, for less money with more value and more customization. I think salons really need to step up their services. I'll never miss paying $55 for rushed service, poor aesthetics execution, bloody fingers, awkward or inappropriate conversation and lots of toxic chemical exposure.

Reg ploy gel is a giant pain(never again!), acrylic is no different. The finish products are beautiful in all but they are messy and can be hard to work with when you don’t use them all the time or are in a rush… I was a little intimidated with this at first, just wasn’t sure what to expect. Prep is always time consuming for me because I have had carpal tunnel in both my hands, for years, had the surgeries years ago but it still came back… As soon as I got to working with the solid gel tho, I quickly was able to relax! Don’t get me wrong I def made a few mistakes like with any new product! I got a bundle with 2 different nail forms, from Markkart, tried the coffin shape and used a lil too much product... Easily was able to peel it off and start again as I had only half cured as a test anyway! Plus the coffin shape was not flattering for my hands so that wasn’t a big deal. It only took me a little bit to get use to working with this product! It’s sooo easy after the first couple nails (non-dominant) hand! I did find that keeping this in the refrigerator is best. Warm temps cause bubbles like crazy in the product no matter how little it’s worked with, and it will start to stick to the tools and slide around in the form! I also found by accident that it’s a bit like honey, in that I had to pause for a quick break and left a form with a ball of product, on the top inside my product jar for a few mins and it leveled itself out waaay nicer than when I had been doing it myself! Yes, I know that’s bad, however it’s my own product and I’m not using it on anyone else. That said, I ended up using a dark container and setting up the 2nd hand of the square nail forms before, allowing them to self level and they came out way nicer & easier, less bubbles and less time spent on working with the product.(this was done with cool product, made into a ball, then allowing for it to warm on its own in the form for maybe 15-20 mins., inside the dark container. My dogs needed a break to run the yard too. Lol It worked awesome!) I’ll post more pics soon to show the finish product with color. *I did use my Hardel rotary tool, not e-file, with the fine cut bit for an e-file, to touch up around the edges a bit, it was my first time using this product! I’m sure with practice I won’t need to. The rotary tool works for sooo much longer and last for much longer than your average e-file, it’s my go to for everything from home projects to my own healthy vanity measures! No joke, I clean it before & after projects whatever they are so I see no issue as long as you’re being sanitary, however, I do not interchange nail bits for other projects! That’s just asking for trouble. They are cheap enough I have a set just for my nails! Besides when they are on sale/or not for that matter, on Amazon they are a fraction of the price of a cordless e-file… fyi do your own research!!! I have to say this was a nice experience for me. I had stopped doing my nails a long time ago because polish always chips and doesn’t last long at home no matter how OCD I was. And it’s just not possible to spend $40-$60 every 3 weeks to go have my nails done now. I had very much missed having a nice manicure, now I’m thrilled to be able to do my own nails again very easily/less messily/affordably, at home again!!! I will never go back to using other product!!! Thank you so much Markkart!! I can’t wait to try a few colors next!!

I have used makartt hard gel for years. This is so much easier to use! And less messy. Loved the color. It’s great value for the money. I both sculpt my own nails and use full coverage tips and it works really well for both. Use a silicon tool to push it where you want it to go. Didn’t flood my cuticle area at all. 10/10. The color was slightly transparent when thin but with just a like bit more became very opaque and lovely

Works well. Stays on for weeks if prep was done correctly. Need electric file to take off

I was recommended this product by someone online who makes nail art for a living. I think the product is great, there is a slight learning curve, but it is not steep at all. The product is great value for the price and I think the amount will last me a very long time, to practice and for full sets of my own nails. After you make a shape and the product warms up, while you’re working with it, it does soften ever so slightly. By soften, I mean a slighttt droop. For example, if I make a ball and put it on my nail, which is on top of my finger (which gives off some heat) If I don’t cure it right away, then it will become a donut hole/sad ball. I think if you work quickly or are professional, and maybe with colder hands, or not touching it too much, you may not have the drooping occur. I’m still new with this so I have to be mindful of these things! Otherwise it takes on gel polish beautiful and cures hard.

Produit simple d utilisation , application rapide

muy buen producto, se pega perfectamente a la uña y puedes hacer muchas formas, ya que es muy fácil de moldear.

Es la primera vez que me hago yo las uñas. Es de uso muy fácil. Rellenas el tip, te lo pones y a la lámpara y luego sacas el tip. Lo pongo en la lámpara 30 segundos, luego saco los tip y lo pongo 60 segundos mas. Con muy poco producto puedes hacer las uñas sin problema.

El producto vino completamente duro imposible utilizar

Ce gel pour les ongles est inutilisable, il est dur , pas du tout liquide comme il le faudrait. Très déçu de mon achat
