Review (4/5): Great Starter Kit
This is a great starter kit to get you going with gel nails.
My only issue with this kit is that it claims to have 'everything you need for a manicure at home' but it doesn't include what some might consider the most IMPORTANT tool... a nail file! Obviously this isn't a big deal, most of us already own a file and if you don't, you can pick on up almost anywhere for $1 or so, but it's the principal for me. LOL. I mean, even the cheapest pack of press-on nails usually includes a tiny emery board file.
That's such a minor complaint though.
Besides that, I wish the lamp were a bit bigger. I'm not very graceful and tend to bump the side of smaller lamps with my wet nails as I put my hand under the lamp. At the same time, I appreciate the compactness of this whole kit... I'm actually keeping it in my desk at work for emergency touch ups so I'm not complaining about the size, just an observation... it's a matter of preference and need.
I wouldn't recommend this kit for a professional/experienced person, but I DO recommend it for a beginner or as I use it - a compact, portable solution for chipped nails on the go (traveling or at the office).
