Review (4/5): A good starter set -- but it's ONLY a starter set
This is a good starter set. It features the required elements for acrylic nails. It comes with a small, USB powered, nail dryer that emits UV and enables the nail coatings to harden.
There’s enough here to get you started on your journey away from the nail salon and into home nail maintenance.
By now, because of Covid-19, the chances are high that your fancy acrylic or gel nails have already grown out, leaving you with your own nails. If you’re not happy with the ‘native’ appearance of your nails, and choose to use gel polish to restore them to look like you had them done at a salon, this kit may be useful.
The nail dryer is small – so you can’t do more than a finger or two at a time. You’ll probably have to get polish or powder to give you the finish that you want—but this set will get you started…
It’s a pretty good starter kit, but if you’re serious about your nails, you’ll probably want a larger nail dryer, and more nail products. (A nail drill – while scary and potentially dangerous – can be helpful for removing your nails, if you made a mistake, or if you want to change colors).
