Beetles Gel Nail Tips Medium Almond Etch X, 12 Sizes 288 PCS

I bought these as part of getting started on doing Gel x nails at home. I like coffin shape, but the coffin mediums are just a little too long for me and the coffin short are not quite long enough. My hope was that I could use the almond medium and snip off the tip to get something like coffin or ballerina. That worked pretty well. Many reviews led me to believe that I needed to spend the money on the Apres brand gel tips, but these worked great for 1/3 the price. I didn't spend much time on my polish or bother with any art because this is my first set done at home and I'm sure they won't last very long. So please excuse my very pink and not very precise polish. I needed to dive in, make the mistakes, and learn. And I did. Start to finish only took about an hour and half. Some are on slightly crooked, almost all have air bubbles particularly around the cuticle. This was actually easier than I thought it would be. I learned that my flash cure device needs to have a motion sensor. It takes both hands to place the nail perfectly over my natural nail and hold it in place while it flash cures. My flash cure device requires a button push in order to light up. I could have done a much higher quality job if I had a third hand, or didn't have to push that button to flash cure. So I'll be replacing that little device. As part of making this doable for me, I used a peel off gel base coat on my natural nails under this mani. I love the gel x nails but the removal process is a nightmare--dealbreaker for home manicures. Acetone destroys my skin and my natural nails so after a while they break easily with even a good regular gel mani. The salon price to pay for a full set of gel x and then the maintenance protocol is way more than I want to spend on my nails. So I've watched a lot of videos on how to do this at home, and in that process I found peel off gel base and learned why people use it. The purpose is to make the removal process much easier and gentler. It's not quite as "peel off" as the name implies so this is not necessarily for one-night nails. My nails are likely to last days to even a couple of weeks but instead of filling in, drilling off and changing the polish, etc., I will remove them without acetone and drilling and just apply a new set. You still need a remover with the peel off base. You typically have to buy or make that separately. I noticed people who don't use a remover give the peel off base bad reviews. Jello Jello peel off base comes with remover. Really all that's needed is some warm soapy water, some cuticle oil, and an orange wood stick. You apply a few drops of a remover around the edges of your nails, or soak them in warm soapy water for about 5 minutes. That loosens the peel off gel base enough to allow the nails to pop off since it is what is covering your natural nail. There is still some basic work involved, but if done correctly there should be virtually no damage to my natural nails. It seems the better you prep your bare nails, the longer the peel off base lasts before your nails start to lift or pop off. Some who did normal gel mani nail prep said even at 2 weeks they were still holding on pretty well. So if you only want a day or two, don't prep your nails. I love these gel nails so far and will buy them again. I found a size to fit all of my nail plates without much filing on the sides. They're comfortable and look nice. They feel strong so I'm not concerned about cracks. I didn't prep the gel nails after I applied them. Most video makers recommend that. I just did a regular gel base coat, two coats of polish, and a top coat. It's been 4 days, I type a lot every day, and my polish isn't peeling or chipping at all. Recommended.

I am extremely happy with my Beetles nail product! The quality exceeded my expectations, especially for the price. The gel polish applies smoothly, has rich pigmentation, and cures perfectly under my UV/LED lamp. Most colors only require two thin coats for full coverage, leaving a beautiful, glossy finish that looks like I just left the salon. One of my favorite things about Beetles is how long the polish lasts. With proper nail prep, a good base coat, and a top coat, my manicure stays chip-free for up to three weeks. The colors remain vibrant and shiny throughout the wear time, even with everyday activities. The bottles are easy to use, and the brushes make application simple and precise. Whether you’re creating a classic manicure or detailed nail art, Beetles products perform beautifully. The color selection is stunning, offering shades for every season, occasion, and style. I also appreciate the amazing value for money. You get salon-quality results without spending a fortune, making Beetles a great choice for both beginners and professional nail technicians. Overall, I highly recommend Beetles nail products to anyone looking for high-quality gel polish at an affordable price. I will definitely be purchasing more products from this brand in the future!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product! It exceeded my expectations. The quality is excellent, it’s easy to use, and it works exactly as described. I’m very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it to others.

I recently tried the Beetles Gel Nail Tips in Medium Almond Etch for my at-home gel extensions, and overall, I'm quite impressed. The almond shape offers a chic and flattering look, elongating the fingers and providing a modern twist on traditional nail shapes. The tips come pre-etched, which significantly reduces preparation time and ensures better adhesion. The medium length is versatile, suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions. Additionally, the tips are made of durable material, providing a sturdy base for gel application. However, some users have reported discomfort around the cuticle area, possibly due to improper application or flooding of the cuticle with gel. Ensuring precise application and avoiding gel contact with the skin can help mitigate this issue. Reddit Overall, the Beetles Gel Nail Tips Medium Almond Etch offer a convenient and stylish option for DIY gel manicures. With careful application, they can provide a salon-quality finish at home.

Absolutely love these nails tips! They come pre etched to help the glue stick better to the nail and they are very thick and durable! I can still perform all normal tasks without worrying about the tips bending, and the curve/flex fit right along the curve of my nail bed perfectly! Will absolutely repurchase

Four stars! These Beetles gel tips are a great option for at-home manicures and give a salon-like look once applied. The tips are strong, lightweight, and hold up well when properly prepped and cured. I really like how natural they look and how many shape options there are to choose from. The application process does take a bit of practice, especially to avoid lifting around the edges, and the adhesive can be a little tricky if you’re new to gel tips. Once you get the hang of it though, the results are very pretty and long-lasting. Overall, a solid product for DIY nails that delivers good quality for the price.

These are the best. I have bought them like 10 times

solid!! would repurchase

resistenti e fatte bene, unica cosa che ci sono poche misure

Great nail tips! They look very natural on the nail. Theyre very sturdy and strong they won't break/bend with just gel polish like regular full cover tips would. The pre-etched inside is nice too. They dont have a very high apex so perfect if you have flatter nail beds. But the sizes run a bit small, I sill think theyd work for most people but my thumbs are the largest size which is usually never the case. I use them a lot, would recommend.

Vraiment le bon format

Great product

Until now the tips looks good and work well. You need to buff it a little bit to the part that goes glued to the nail. Definitely buy again.
