BTArtboxNail Glue & Primer Set - 2 x 0.5 Fl Oz Acrylic French Ballerina Nail Gel, Long Lasting Super Strong 4 in 1 UV Nail Gel for Press On Nails

This is for the glue, only (I didn't get the nails with it).I have done my own nails at home for a year or two at this point, but I wore acrylics and extensions for more than 15 at this point. That is to say, I am a bit of a nail snob now.Usually, I use regular nail glue with half-tip extensions (the kind that you glue on in the middle or upper quarter of your nails). I had accidentally ordered full nail extensions a year ago and just never used them. I decided to try them with this glue.Oh my heckin gawd!First, let me say this was ridiculously easy to apply. I put a dot of the glue on the full extension, bottom center. When I put it on, I slid the nail up and down and side to side a bit, to get the glue all over my natural nail. It took about one single second to do. Once I had that and could see there were no bubbles, I flash-UV'd the nail to set it, cleaned off the excess glue around the edges, and then moved on to my other fingers, doing the same thing. Once I had my 4 main nails done, I cured for just over a minute. I then did my other hand, and then both thumbs.Let me just say, WOW. These suckers are ON there. They don't budge, and the excess glue that I failed to clean off was actually super easy to remove (nail nippers).My nails hurt the rest of the evening, but that was because of the shape of the nails I used. It didn't hurt bad, just that tenderness you get when you put on a new set of acrylics after not wearing them for a week or two. It wasn't the glue's fault, it was just the shaping of the nails. The glue didn't even feel warm under the lamp.I've had them on for a full 24 hours now, and they feel solid. Like, I feel my actual nail would come off before these things would.I have one area that looks like I didn't get glue on that edge (operator error), but other than that, they look remarkable.I will report back how long they lasted once they start to come off (or I decided to switch them out), but as for an initial reaction, I am floored.I've attached two pictures. One is just a view of a few nails. You can see how perfectly flat they lay on my nails. There is some bubbling you can see at the tops of my fingers, that's excess glue I haven't removed yet. The other picture is my thumb nail where I didn't get the glue all the way to the edge. As you can see, there is a visual difference. Knowing this now, I know what to look for when I use this next time.

Gel nail kit game changer! I've been doing my own nails for a few month now and I love the thicker nail glue! It makes me nails last for 4 weeks or longer sometimes! I am a busy body and no matter how many times i knock a hand (or nail) off something my nails hold strong! I prep my nails,put the glue on fake nail,then put on my nail,cure it and off i go! This glue makes it quick ans easy to do my nails. There's no slipping and sliding of the nail before i cure it. To remove it i soak for 15-20 mins in soak off scrape them a little and thats it! Love this glue and will always order it!

I’ve purchased these nail tips twice now and can confidently say they’re my new go-to. The size range is great—I have shorter nail beds and these fit beautifully without looking stubby or unnatural. FYI, I wouldn’t call them extra short, but they’re a super wearable, flattering length for everyday life.They come pre-etched and ready to go, which is such a time-saver. I use a UV-cure builder gel underneath, and I typically get solid 2–3 week retention without any lifting or cracking.Gel polish adheres perfectly, zero issues there, and they’re easy to remove when I’m ready for a new set. Whether I soak them off or use a coarse carbide bit with my e-file, they come off cleanly without damage.Honestly, for the price and quality, they’re a staple in my nail stash.

I really liked the length and how it was filed on the outside to help with nail product adhesion, but I would have liked it more if they did it for the inside of the nail as well to help it stay on your real fingernail. Overall, a quality product though.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've tried almost all the different nail glues on the market at this point. I stopped looking for a better glue when I found this brand. This uv glue makes my nails stick on for minimum 3 weeks. Just prep nails before.

I want to like this as with proper nail prep it does hold fake nails on really well.I iust can't get past how messy it is. It is so hard to squeeze a tiny bit out the tube and then pulling it off leaves a lot of stringy bits that fall leaving bit to clean up.The tube itself is really hard to squeeze cause its filled with air so even getting the product near the tip takes a while and a lot of force, and if you let go you have to start the squeezing a bit out from the beginning, that is how much air is in this tube.I will use up whats left. But this gel glue leaves me frustrated.

THIS GLUE WORKS!!! I’ve tried every kind of glue you can imagine for DIY full-cover nails and none of them stayed stuck for very long. Until now, the best I had used was solid gel glue but that was just too thick to really work for me. This glue leaves them all in the dust. Easy to use, easy to clean up and boy does it STICK!! (Make sure you do good prep for best results!) I like the nails, too (short coffins which aren’t really short but…). The way the nails are packaged is easier to get the right size of nail and the nails are durable without breaking or splitting. I’ve had this set on for a week now and everything is holding up really well. My search for the best DIY glue and nails is over. This is the best! Even better than the expensive name brands, too, IMHO.
