Morovan Poly Gel Nail Kit: Starter Kit 8 Pcs Poly Nail Gel Kit with U V Lamp 48W Complete Poly Gel Kit for Beginners with Everything Professional

This was my first time doing polygel. This kit came with everything I needed and more (I do suggest purchasing an electric nail drill to save time). I put the polygel on my natural nails the first time, it was pretty easy to get the hang of. I learned a few things along the way, like don’t get too close to your cuticles and don’t miss the base coat. I used a thin layer to see how it would hold up. It lasted about two weeks and then two nails broke (I will say I’m rough with my nails, always washing dishes or washing hands or cleaning). I tried the nail form and the sticky form, both turned out ok. It’s a lot more work if you use these to make your nails longer, it takes practice. After the first time, I suggest doing a fill. It took me 30 mins to do one hand. I did all the steps for the part near the cuticle that had grown out. I sanded off the top coat and applied a fresh new top coat over the whole nail, looks like new! Great starter kit. One thing I’ve noticed is the top coat will sometimes have holes in it on the nail, it doesn’t go on smooth. I’m not sure why that happens.

The polygel itself is pretty thick and very sticky but with the slip solution they provide it's very easy to manipulate. I used the white first and did my right hand first, which was kind of difficult for me, then the next day painted the nails with regular polish and added a little gem. The gem glue wasnt the easiest or cleanest thing to open but its glue so I expected it... I added the provided top coat over top and I think they look pretty good. This was my first time ever using polygel and I will say I'm extremely satisfied with the quality of everything! For a beginner the instructions were clear and easy to follow but I also watched videos to help myself out. The nails feel very strong on my left hand (right hand was difficult for me because I'm right handed lol) after doing my right hand first though I became more confident and was getting the hang of it so the consistency of my left hands nails are pretty much perfect.. right hand is pretty uneven and I had a crack in one, that was easily fixed my dabbing a little gel on it. Pressing the form on with the gel loaded to my right hand wasn't as messy on the top but the underneath chunked up a little where I press down too hard that's really the only thing I don't care about but that was my own fault. I know when I go to do someone else's nails for them I won't have that issue I'll be able to control everything better it was just under my right hand that caused issues. And yes I know a lot of the nails are different shapes and that's my own fault because the way I was filing.

First, the kit comes with literally everything you need plus extra stuff. Definitely order another slip solution because the provided bottle will run out in two sets. Second, it is beginner friendly, but only if the beginner has a lot of patience. It will take a while to complete all steps appropriately and you must pay attention. It does come with instructions, but there are various ways to apply the polygel. Third, the removal process is the WORST and you more than likely will slightly ruin your nail the first removal. They recommend electric drill, but the problem is the polygel blends very well with your actual nail, so you may not notice when filing and file to your actual nail. Fourth, for some reason if I extend the polygel past where my nail ends, the tips always break off. ALWAYS, i have done 3 sets. Overall, it's a great set, and simple to use. Great gift foe friends and family as well. I do wish they sent more solid colors not just the color changing polygels.

Arrived fast and with no issues. Packaged nicely with clear easy to understand instructions, and literally everything you could possibly need (all tools, brushes, tweezers, even a little cup for the dip solution and the light) it even comes with little rhinestones and glitter. I have a broken nail so I cannot apply them yet, but will do a full review later. I cannot believe I got all of this for the price I paid!!! Definitely recommend

If I could give this 3.5 stars I would. I really want to give this 4 or even 5 stars because this is a really nice kit and you get so many starter items for the price. They also give you an instruction pamphlet which was so super helpful. However, my top coat was leaking even with the sealed packaging which was unfortunate but I cleaned it off. I may need to buy another. And the big let down that caused the 3 star rating is that the polygel colors were not all accurate. Aside from P006 (nude beige), P005 (turned out like an ombré red/pink) which that’s not what it was suppose to do, and P004 (another ombré pink) which was also not suppose to be ombré now that I think about it, I think they may have been mislabeled because the ombré colors were the 007 & 008?? And the rest were basically white as you can see in the photos. Aside from the clear and white actually given and pictured on my left index and left middle. The P008, P007, and P003 were all a milky white color. In the long run it isn’t gonna bother me. I can always just paint over them. But for buying this and expecting those colors was actually sad to see. But overall this is very beginner friendly. I would recommend adding a nail drill to my stuff in the future to help clean underneath my nails but for now I’ll deal with it. The tops look pretty damn good for my first try. And they are very comfortable. So I would say it was worth the buy, especially for the price but be careful you may not get the right colors but you can always paint your nails. So if that doesn’t bother you then def get it.

This was a great kit, so many accessories. I couldn't figure out how to use the gel, but I gave it away to a family member, and they loved it and it worked great for them! Also, so many color options to choose from!

*See important tips below! *EDIT- my nails lasted 3 weeks until I finally removed them to put on a new set! I love this polygel kit! I can quit wasting so much money on nail salons! I am a beginner doing my own nails. In fact, I got my nails done professionally for so long that I couldn’t even paint my nails right. But realizing how unhealthy acrylics are for the nail bed and how ridiculously expensive it is to maintain them I had to stop. The bad reviews on this product definitely scared me but I figured I would try it. First off, the kit was very well packaged and still arrived sticky like something had been leaking inside. Everything was pretty much full though and I was able to clean it up pretty easily so beware when you open it and be somewhere near a sink where you can clean up. It is kind of a messy process but once you get the hang of it you can easily contain the mess. Second- I did NOT expect these to turn out so cute on my first try!!! I love them and I have gotten compliments. Third- they are very sturdy and I didn’t have problems trying to open a soda can which would usually snap a weak nail. I’m on day 4 of wearing them and considering I didn’t put them on very well I’m really shocked none have chipped or fallen off. Fourth- the value for the money in this kit is great. The lamp is very good quality and it comes with all the tools you need! A couple of important tips: *WATCH THE YOUTUBE TUTORIALS BEFORE BEGINNING!!! *The base coat does not dry smooth. It dries very sticky so be prepared to apply the polygel nail shortly after applying the base coat! *Double the cure time! Cure the base coat for 120 seconds and the polygel for 120 seconds. *Keep the alcohol pads nearby to clean your fingers off because they will get sticky! *Do one nail first to find if you’re putting the right amount of polygel on. Go one at a time until you feel like you’ve got it down.

The LED light for curing only lasted about one year, and I used it maybe 15 times total. Tried using it again today and it just stopped working. The entire kit is fine, pretty beginner friendly.

El deshidratador llego casi vacio parece que se venia tirando apesar de estar "sellado", algunos tonos del polygel no son los que dice en la foto son diferentes🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh so much stuff. This is a great starting package! And very good for the price. I had worried that getting multiple colours might mean little gel to work with for each colour, but no a problem. The instructions are pretty straightforward and easy to follow. The UV light is good - not super lightweight, and timers for the light helped a lot. Things all came individually packaged or plastic sealed, which would be overkill for other purchases, but it was clear everything was brand new with this. I would recommend finding a quiet day with a few hours and spot to devote to this. Next time I would have a warm tub of water to make the nail gel a bit softer to work with. The seals on the tops of tubes didn't always come off easily. The slip solution has it's own little glass, but it poured oddly and I should have had a rag or cloth there, as I dribbled. The materials did not have an overpowering smell, and I was happy with that part. Although the whole process turned out pretty good for a first run, I should have done it one finger at a time, and made sure to put the plastic clips on better. The clips are kind of big if you have little fingers - so having a little piece of waste material or paper towel to put under them would make it a bit tighter. I thought it would be good to try three fingers at a time given the size of the UV lamp opening, but only had two clips! I am good with doing nails myself on most occasions and I just overestimated my skill and speed a bit. The nail forms are really curved and even though they fit well, the clips really are needed to hold them in place. I also accidentally pressed too hard on two of my nails and squeezed some of the gel out in a not so great way. It cleaned up off cuticle etc easily. In retrospect, I also forgot to do something I had seen on You-Tube videos - smooth out the gel when the form is on the nail - the underside of the nail inside the form. I got some lumpy bits under the tips of my nails that took a bit longer to cure that still need to be filed off, but leaving it for now. It did make the tips a bit thicker which might be good given I usually end up with nicks and gouges. I am not sure if these will last too long, but it's okay for a first run. I started with the clear nail gel and think it was a good choice. Some extra alcohol wipes in addition to the small ones provided to clean things might be useful personal additions - I expected stickiness after the curing that the wipes are good to eliminate (given all the reviews of gel nails), but some slightly larger ones (or a bottle with some wipes) to clean tools and gel bottles would be a good thing for later. Expect to need more emory boards, but the ones provided were good quality. I found having a pair of cuticle clippers of my own also helped for final clean up after gel was set. Overall, pretty happy with the outcome.

This is a great product! As others say, there is definitely a learning curve involved, but it's not too hard to learn. The kit comes with absolutely everything you need (cuticle cutters, nail file, tweezers and glue for the little gems, brushes, even a tiny shot glass for the polygel slip solution). The only thing missing that I would have liked to see was some acetone to remove the polygel later, but no big deal. The attached picture is of my first attempt, on my dominant hand (which I had to do with my non-dominant hand). In hindsight, it was probably overly ambitious to try doing French tips on my first try, but I'm actually really happy with how they turned out! It took me a good couple hours to do them, though (which, again, is my fault for attempting something so intricate right off the bat.) Overall this product is excellent, but I have two small pieces of feedback: -Some of the products come in really small quantities, and probably won't last more than three or four applications: namely the actual polygel bottles, and the slip solution. I would have liked to see slightly larger products. -I'm not a fan of the variety of colours. I chose to try a French manicure because I don't wear a lot of pink or pastels, and this would go with everything. The only other colour in here that I could see myself wearing is the light brownish colour. It seems a shame that there are three or four different shades of pastel pink and purple, where there could have been more variety. For example, a red shade would have been awesome. This is not a huge problem, however, because you can go on the Morovan website and hand-pick a set of 7(?) different colours to order, and it's relatively inexpensive. Overall great product!

I have NEVER done my nails before. Even painting them myself is a pain as I have no time to sit around waiting for them to dry.😬 What I liked: It comes with the needed lamp to harden the nails and almost everything else required to do it yourself at home. Two form options for how you'd like to make you nail shape. I used the plastic forms for my first try, they came off just as described (very easy)- I am going to do the sticker method next time. The polygel I used changes color in hot/cold temperature 🥰🤗 added coolness 😎 For the most part they turned out nice, From a distance you can't tell I did them myself 😅 Dislike: Difficult to know the right amount to use for each nail. Placing the gel in the right spot to ensure an equal spread of color. (Once pressing the polygel to the nail the color thins out. Not necessarily bad but lead to slightly different color nails 🫣) Ended up with some little air bubbles in a couple nails - moving the gel around with the slip solution to much I believe. (I didn't notice till I was shaping the nail after hardened) Difficult to smooth underside of nail. Once placing the form onto the nail you are to flip and smooth the underside, this takes some skill 😑 (Having a nail drill is a plus - I used my dremel as the nails were insanely thick after hardening and a drill was not provided with this kit) Took me 8hrs to do them myself and get them to the perfect length/shape. 😮‍💨 😰definitely not faster than going and getting them done! But will save you the money in the long run. The top coat is also hardening -be sure to nicely paint on top of the hardened polygel nail. With practice and patience I'm sure it will look better and be easier each time. I don't know how often I'll actually do this, as I don't have all day to waste 🙃 😅 (talk about waiting for nail polish to dry 😵‍💫) But maybe next blue moon/day off😋

I never do my nails but I really wanted to give polygels a try. I was concerned about the packaging as there were numerous reviews indicating that they received incomplete kits/items leaking etc. but my kit was complete, none of the items were leaking and the UV lamp was functional. As everyone mentioned, there is a huge learning curve, I am just starting to get the hang of it after 4 attempts. A few things to note/tips: 1. I found the curve of the dual forms to be too steep for my nail beds and none of the sizes seem to fit my nails well (ended up purchasing NMKL38 forms). 2. The bristles of the nail brush began to fray after the third use and am now finding that it does not move the gel nicely. 3. Be prepared to hold your breath when using the primer, the chemical smell is extremely strong (I believe this goes for most brands, not just this one). 4. Nail prep seems to be THE KEY to lasting nails; ensure you complete every step; I have not had any nails pop off. 5. I find the TikTok hack method to be much easier and get better results. 6. Buy an electric file...there is a lot of nail shaping/filing (ended up buying one). 7. Colours are very translucent. Overall I am very happy with this kit and it has everything you need to get started. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to start trying polygels.
