Disappointed but works as a quick manicure
The kit came with everything, as described, and arrived early.  The seller was also prompt in reaching out to ask what colors I wanted and the file tools and cutters seem to be fairly good quality.  I was disappointed in some things though:<br /><br />1. Polish bottles are black and you have to open each one to see the color (I painted a dot on the bottom of each to make this easier).<br />2. The size of the bottles is more like a sample size probably about a third of the size of a normal bottle.<br />3. The acetone remover pads that came in the kit are not strong enough to remove polish, they dry out quickly and even when covered with tin foil to let soak on your nail, they don't work.  Had to purchase another liquid remover.<br />4. The included instructions are quite vague, they only advise how to apply this polish, not how to remove it without damaging your nails.<br />5. This polish works well on nails with tips, putting it directly on your natural nail does not last.  After three separate manicures, it has peeled within a few days.  You either try to touch it up or remove it and completely repaint.<br />6. The UV light does not cure the polish.  It remains tacky and can easily be damaged for up to several hours after application.  I've cured each layer additional times before adding the next coat but it does not help, the polish remains tacky.<br /><br />The product page on Amazon has more details on how to troubleshoot peeling nails and ensure a good application.  I am keeping the kit in hopes that I can keep adjusting and finally get it to last longer.  For the money, it's the quality I anticipated however I will not purchase the items again.
