Soft Gel Nail Tips for DIY: 552Pcs 12Size Full Cover Set for All Nails

I’ve had these tips on for a week and they are holding on strong! The shape is great, but it’s not medium length on my nails because I have short nail beds so I have to cut, and file them to a shorter length for myself. They hate definitely thin, so I used builder gel to give it some thickness. I’d recommend getting the shorter length if you have small, flat, short nail beds. I used builder gel to adhere the tip to my nail and I’ve been doing this for months it keeps my nails strong and I find this tip is a lot easier for me to adhere to my nails. I love love love all the sizes available because my pinky is tiny and the 11 size nail fits perfectly. I’d definitely recommend this set to anyone.

I got these in medium almond and they are too long for my personal taste (I type all day and need a shorter length) but I just cut them down and reshape. I should have gotten the short-length almond but didn't see them until after I had already purchased these - so if you like a shorter length be aware that this brand has short-length squoval, square, and almond available in another listing. Just go to their Amazon shop and you'll find them. With that being said, these are pre-etched which saves a huge amount of time and effort on my part - I just deal with my cuticles, use dehydrator and primer, then a base coat on my bare nails for protection, then attach these with gel glue I purchased elsewhere. They stay on for 2 weeks with no issues as long as you use a high quality thick gel glue and prep your bare nails first. They also soak off easily. These are thinner at the base, thicker at the tips, with a nice c-curve. Comparable to Gel-X but much more affordable! I will be getting all the short-length styles from this brand eventually.

Hands down the most durable nail tips I've used. I have fairly stubby finger nails, and fake nails never stay on more than a week between normal ware and tear and using my hands a lot at work. I've tried everything; acrylics, gel dip, gel builder, poly gel, and even other glue ons. Even when they're done professionally they don't stay on more than a week, or I pick them off before that. The pictures of my nails are weeks and 5 days after applying them. I'm shocked to say the least. I've bumped them a hundred times and been using my hands a lot at work, and still they stayed on that long!!! They are fairly easy to put on, but I may be bias because I've been doing my own nails for years. You do need to purchase UV gel glue also to glue them on. They come pre etched on the part that glues on to your nail, but I have a drill and still decided to file mine a bit to unsure a good application. I waited to shape mine until after applying and curing. I suggest sizing down if the fake nail is overlapping any part of your cuticles. Press down firmly on the nail when curing the gel glue to make sure there are no bubbles. I will be continuing to use these instead of other company's nails!

Product is nice. Shape is really cute but if you’re looking for full coverage tips that cover wider nail beds this, isn’t the product.

I like the length and the value for the money of this nails, they do last a long time tho they pop off sometimes and you have to glue the nail back, the nails are strong I love that but I am not a professional and people do compliment me on where I got my nails done and everything I guess from afar they look amazing but close you can see that I am not good but for what I want them they are good and resist a lot.

I will start by saying, similarly to many other reviews, that the medium-almond length is a bit long to be considered medium length. So if you do not like long nails and want to be able to use a "medium" length nail immediately out of the box with no filing, this length may not be for you. However, I think a little extra filing is worth it considering what you get in return from this product. The quality of the material of the nail, the pre-etching, the number of nails you get, how the nails come in a neatly organized box and not in little plastic baggies.. all well worth the extra 10 minutes of filing in my opinion. I have used these tips, Beetles tips, and BTartbox tips, and NOTHING I have tried so far compares to these. The pictures are from the day I did my most recent set, 02/06/, and then 15 days later. 02/21/ I can easily get another 1-2 weeks out of these. The longest I have gone with 1 set using the Gelike tips was about 19 days with the original set, then I filed down the nails and did a "fill" using gel builder. Then they lasted another 11 days until I soaked them off. These are my go-to tips as they have never let me down. Helpful Tips: - Size the tips to each of your natural nails and write them down somewhere so you can reference each new set. This can cut back on prep time if you know the correct size each time. - Etch the inside of the artificial nail with a drill before you start natural nail prep(they come pre-etched, but I like to do a little extra etching) - WEAR A MASK so you don't inhale any of the dust particles( it's not pleasant, I speak from experience), especially when using a drill to file away gel before soaking off tips, If you can, invest in a nail dust catcher. Steps for longevity: - push back/trim cuticles - file and buff natural nails (dust away any debris with a brush) - apply nail dehydrator( I used the brand Morovan Professional) - apply nail primer( I used the brand Morovan Professional) - apply nail glue to your natural nail( I used Beetles nail glue) and cure it - apply the nail glue to the nail tip and flash cure to your natural nail; repeat on all fingers - cure both hands in nail lamp( I usually cure each hand for 90 seconds just to be sure) - file to desired shape and length - buff the artificial nail - apply gel base and cure - apply color(2-3 coats depending) and cure - apply top coat and cure - apply cuticle oil - Enjoy!! Sorry this was so long but I hope it helps!

Gel X is a game-changer for fake nails! I used to struggle with regular press-on nails that never lasted long enough, but with Gel X, my nails stay put for weeks. I applied them for the first time before a special event, and they lasted through a weekend trip without a single issue. The process was easy, and they looked like they were professionally done. My friend even asked if I’d gone to the salon, which made me feel so proud! The best part? They didn’t damage my natural nails when I took them off. This stuff is amazing, and I’m already planning my next set of designs.

They are awesome! I have smaller more narrow nail beds and these fit my nail plate perfectly! They are sturdy and a great base for finishing off yourself with your favorite gel colors :) great price for the set and especially when you compare to getting you nails done at a salon! Will definitely buy again ***update*** Having used these many times now over the last several weeks I will say, they look amazing at first, but the longevity of them isn’t as good as other brands I have used before. If you’re looking for a natural, almost ready to use out of the box look for an upcoming event in a few days then these are great- if you’re hoping they’ll last about a week or two- they definitely don’t have the staying power.

My nails are not too wide and the size of them is too wide needed to be filed from the sides to make them a bit narrower

As soon as I opened the box I could smell the plastic. I have a box of apres nail tips which are actual gel and they don’t smell at all. So false advertising. They are flimsy like regular abs plastic tips. Also, they are quite curved and don’t have an apex meant for filling with gel. The sizing is big too. I wear apres size 2 on my thumb nails, but with these I have to wear a size 4 on my thumbs… I’ll update this review after I’ve worn them for a few weeks (if they last that long). I’m definitely going to add a layer of builder gel on top to give them more strength.

They are thinner, flimsier and flatter than Apres and Beetles nail tips. They dont really have an arch to put extra gel in between the real nail and the nail tip. However, I removed them after 2 weeks (because of growth) and they were still very sturdy, plus there was no lifting. They are easier to remove since they are thinner and shaping requires less effort as well. So even though the quality is not as good, I do recommend them, especially if you plan on changing your nails quite often.

this was definitely a much longer nail then what’s shown on the product pictures so i don’t really use these as it’s a waste, i got them for the shape and yet i still have to cut them and shape to get the almond again so i don’t use these very minch

I love this brand of Gel-X nails. I have them in multiple shapes/sizes and they are great. I use them to create my own press-on nails and have no complaints. I have no problem with chipping, etc. I have only used them as true gel extensions once (as opposed to creating press-ons with them), and they worked great in that instance as well. Great price for the number of sets I will get out of this. Will continue to buy this brand!
