Love it!
I would always go to a salon to get a gel overlay done on my nails! I never needed tips but it still cost 50.00 for every time I went! I purchased the gelish nail kit with LED lamp to try it out! I do find that it can still be pricey at times but I do enjoy doing my own nails with my own designs! I have not had an issue with peeling or anything with this gel! It's smooth and easy to use!
Gelish is the ONLY nail polish that I will use on my toes that will last over 3 months until essentially my toe nails grow out. I have never had any issues with peeling, chipping, or discoloration problems ever. I hate always having too re-do my nail polish every week and with Gelish you do not have too worry about it at all. You do need too purchase a LED lamp or UV lamp in order for your polish too set properly. Its not a regular nail-polish. More so a gel polish that applies exactly like regular polish. You must apply thin coats in order for this too work and prep your nails properly too have them last a long time. I noticed with the colors that you only need too apply 2 coats of the nail polish too achieve the full effects of the color. No more is needed or it will get too thick and clumpy.
Gelish has over 100 colors too choose from ranging from shiny, sparkles, matte, bold, bright and even glow in the dark. The black matte polish is absolutely gorgeous!! They just came out with the Matt Top Coat so you need too buy this separately in order too get a matte look. Just make sure you buy the Top off and Foundation polishes as well when purchasing your colors. This will help everything set in place properly. I also recommend not using any type of lotions or oils a day or 2 before you use this or you may notice within a couple days some slight peeling. If you do just make sure you wash your hands with an oil free cleanser and buff your nail beds too reduce the oils in the nail. (I added a picture of my pink toes and its called "Tag your it".) Perfect beach time summer color. @Gelish
You can purchase this at Cosmo Prof for 17.99$ a bottle. Yes slightly expensive but they don't expire for 3 years so you defiently get your money worth in this product.
Quite pricey to start your own at home kit but the polishes are very long wearing the colour range is impressive but I do have a qualm with some of the light pink and purple polishes, they are notorious for fading (go girl, so sweet your giving me a tooth ache & it's a Lilly all fade to brown/taupe). Other than those colours I haven't had a problem, I have close to 30 polishes, and love the vast majority of them, the quality is fairly consistent, and with proper application no problems with getting it to last well beyond 2 weeks, the high shine does loose a bit of lustre over time but it still looks incredible when removal time comes around.
