Great product!!

I am a licensed nail technician, but I have a problem doing my own nails and this stuff seriously makes it so easy to do my own nails without getting any product on the skin. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing for you non-dominant hand

It’s a great product.. took me some time to get to understand it. But as soon I got it uff, easy!
Like my title says great for your non dominant hand.
First time I used them, it last me 3 weeks with no lifting, I could have gone for 2 more weeks but wanted a new set🤣
Will definitely recommend it❤️❤️

Could be great

The quality and idea are there but the product does not cure or stick as well as it could. Sometimes it works other times my nails pop right off despite the prep. Would not repurchase. :(

Love thé Novice Gel!

This is by far the best gel for a diy as well as professionals! This gel has cut down the time it takes to do my nails in half. Once you get used to the application.. it’s super easy!! Love this stuff!

I love it so far

I've had my full stiletto nails on for 4 days so far and no nails are moving or feeling loose. I've used other solid nail glues before and just within a day or two the nails were getting loose.

What I used: 1st I used the Apres Gel-X prep on the underside of the fill cover nails to chemically "etch" the side that goes onto your natural nail. 2nd I applied a base coat that leaves a tacky layer - cure it of course, i did not wipe the tacky layer. 3rd since the apres full cover nails that i used have a built in apex and do not sit flat on my nailbed I used a liquid builder gel on my natural nails to build an apex, this was the very 1st time that I've tried it that way. Apply more builder get in the middle of your nail, cure, do not wipe sticky layer. 3rd apply the Extend Gel Novice, I used the spatula end of a dual sided nail tool to spread it evenly on the full cover nail and removed the excess, you do not need to apply a whole hunk of it, next press on the nail to your nails, if any spillage you can use the spatula tool, orange wood stick, cleaning brush dipped in slip solution to clean it up, next flash cure for like 10 secs. Do full cure when done applying to all of your nails, I did about 60secs in a led lamp.

The thing I did differently this go around than any other time I applied full cover nails using solid nail glue, was: 1st always apply a base coat. I used a liquid builder gel, and I didn't wipe off the tacky layers from the base coat or from the builder gel. So far it's been 4 days and no nail moving or lifting yet. I'll be back for an update.
