I had high hopes, but no.
[[VIDEOID:d2d6cbc6b19defeb8096589091ee911e]] I'm very familiar with poly gel and how to use it,the process it takes to create a cute, and secure set.<br /> What first sold me on AIFAIFA kit at first was the cutest carrying case they provide. I've been needing one and many other kits out there dont add that in. I give them a A for that. Second, I was so happy for nail foils and things to kick up your designs a few notches with. This gave them an A ++ for me. I love things that make me feel as if I've made a purchase that was the best bang for my buck. They provide the lamp, product, colors, tools, designs AND a storage for my kit? I was sold.<br />BUT IM SO SAD THAT I HAVE TO RETURN IT ALL! Why? Because the LED lamp was really just a cute baby pink colored lamp! Or was acting like it because my set ended up looking like a sad crumbling mess. Also, even though I was the first to break the seals off each poly gel, it seemed to lay in a bit thicker than typical gels I've used before. That leads me to believe something may be wrong with them.<br />Now another oopsie I see on their part is the nail forms. They're very typical as far as the forms most kits come with, which is too darn big/ small. It's an acceptable point that it isn't their fault some people have oddly shaped fingers, you'll never satisfy that 100%. But with the forms not shaping properly and the lamp not curing properly, my typical 1 hour nail job turned into hours which frustrated me the most. I would cure several times and the gel would come out tacky, gritty, floppy and cracked away instantly.<br />I really really wanted to give  AIFAIFA more stars for potentially selling the best beginners kit out there, but unfortunately their kit lacks functionality and purpose.<br />*update* I had ordered a replacement kit, tried it out both the gel, uv lamp and polishes. The best results yield from the polishes, but they dont seem to fully dry. Curing time is longer, which is a downer for me, but still a cool starter kit.
