Very good set for a beginner. Excellent color selection, with base and top coat bottles.
The manner of presentation raises it's value as a gifting option. This is a fairly good assortment of color poly gel polishes, including 2 tubes of temperature changing polishes (an addition not usually found in beginner sets). Small jars of base coat and top coat (10ml each) complete the liquid components of this set.  2 nail art tools are included: a two sided positioning pen and nail file board (the rather large pink item in the attached photos).<br />The gel poly polishes come in 15ml (0.5fl oz) tubes. The colors cover the range of popular hues. The gel poly tends to be on the thicker side. For a beginner to intermediate user, perhaps the best approach is to use slip solution or alcohol. Put a small quantity of alcohol or slip solution into a small bowl/container. Apply some gel polish then dip your brush into the alcohol, and smooth out the polish. The alcohol or slip solution acts as a solvent to loosen up the polish, enabling the user to manipulate the polish more easily. It's better to deal with a gel polish that is too thick, than a circumstance of the polish being too loose/thin. Also, gel poly is a different product than regular liquid nail polish.<br />Overall, a very good set for beginners. Intermediate users will find use for the colors, especially the temperature based color changing varieties. And top coat and base coat bottles are always handy to have as additional resources.<br />Based on these considerations, this set obtains a solid 4 star rating.
