Extra Short Almond Nail Tips - BTArtbox XCOATTIPS Gel Nail Tips Natural with Tip Primer Cover, Pre-shaped Full Matte Oval Gel Press On Nails Clear Soft Fake Nails for Daily Nail Art

I don't really write reviews for things but... Holy moly. I have been doing my own nails for a few years and I can get most glues to wear fairly well but usually when I increase my activity with my hands - more typing, cleaning, diy house projects, etc. a nail tip is bound to pop off within two weeks or so. But THIS GLUE has held up so incredibly well that I literally demoed my bathroom and was not gentle on my nails, so much so a lot of my gel polish chipped off, and the glue tips are STILL going strong and growing out with my natural nails 3+ weeks later. And to top it all off, I literally appliedy tips really quick while traveling with a teeny travel lamp and not my "official" nail set up. So I would recommend this to anyone and everyone who needs more sturdy wear time out of their set, absolutely a high quality product!

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 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.

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’ve been doing my own nails for about 5 years now and I’ve tried a variety of different tips/extensions. I like the thickness of these nails and think they are a quality product in that way. However, I did order a “short” size and received a box labeled as mediums. I’m not sure if they messed up my order or if that is truly the length of the short but it’s definitely too long for me regardless. I was filing for a while and I don’t even like my nails too short.I attached a photo of what my nails look like currently after filing and painting them.

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.
