Makartt Poly Nail Gel, 3D Nail Gel for Nail Art, Nail Extension Gel 50ML, Builder Extension Gel White Pink Nude Clear Rosy for Technician Starter DIY Salon Design

Formula: I prefer thicker, less sticky polygels and this was perfect. This is my ideal formulation, where I can easily smooth it out with a bit of alcohol/slip solution; not too sticky; and is a bit more thick for easier brushing. (This is compared to another product that was way too runny for my liking, too sticky no matter how much alcohol/slip solution I used.)Colour: I got the colour Icing. While it is pretty, it's not exactly what I see in the advertisement photo. That shows a subtle pink with a subtle shimmer. It comes off to me as a very pale pink (when applied; from the tube it's a bit darker) that has a very light shimmer. However, it does have a bit of a pearlescent effect that actually kind of marbles up instead of just being a solid colour.Overall I'd recommend this as it's beginner friendly to use. Up to you if my (poor) description tempts you for the particular colour. If you want what's in the photo, I don't think you'd get exactly what you're after, but it's pretty nonetheless.

This polygel is easy to use and is very sturdy the only downside is that it’s a little thick and sticky but I just use more slip solution to combat that, a lot comes in the bottle so you won’t run out fast overall amazing product

I found the colour to be a lovely pearly white as well as extending the nail. However, I found it to be INCREDIBLY sticky.

Done a few sets with this and I love it. Very demure. The white + le coral kit is Perfect for a natural set, ombré or french.The poly gel itself is easy to work with and produces durable nails that look like salon acrylics.Done 3 sets so far and the tube is still over half full. Whereas one set of ombré/french nails in a salon would cost £40+.

Firstly it cures nice n hard2 things I didn't like....Hard to squeeze out , this caused the tube to start splitting , I have other brands n squeeze out much easier.Worst thing as its very time consuming as no matter how much slip solution is used its sticky too sticky and hard to move. I used the correct brush and tried an orange stick and the flat metal part on the opposite end of my brush. Nothing made much difference or made it easier

First time user of polygel so can’t compare to others however I used it to build some big toe nails with nail forms and it’s worked perfectly.

I am a newly qualified nail tech but new to polygel. I would highly recommend this product, it’s easy to use, looks amazing and is durable. Looks better in real life and the colour is perfect. Great value for money plus a professional type quality product that I’d happily use on my clients. Highly recommended 🤩

I did my own set myself as I always have done my own nails for the passed 8 years and I was going to write a really good review straight after I finished but I'm glad I didn't.First of all, I'm gonna start with the fact that I know how to prep my nails and I did exactly that before the disasterous experience I had with this gel. I also double cured the gel because of the amount that I applied (despite it being clear, I wanted to be on the safe side).As soon as I finished the set, I was in love. The shape was exactly what I needed, the apex was great and overall experience was fab. I just needed to practice on the timing as they took me a few hours but I wasn't mad because I was so sure they were going to last me at least 3 weeks.The very next day, I noticed that some nails started to crack on the sides. Mind you, I made the form with the polygel, then applied builder gel, then 3 coats of colour and a topcoat. They should have not cracked so I thought I'll pop some glue on the cracks and fix the 2 nails up. Less than an hour later, I noticed another 2 nails cracking. The day after that, my middle finger nail completely cracked off, smack bang in the middle where the apex was. A couple of days after, my index finger nail started to lift off so I fixed it down with nail glue.After trying my best to salvage these nails, more and more kept cracking and lifting. I kept reapplying the builder gel, nail glue. I even put some gems on. They just kept breaking. I got so annoyed that it's now day 12 and I took them all off. I am so disappointed because I've spent so much time doing these as it was my first ever time doing polygel and they didn't even last 2 weeks. Not only that, they came off easier than expected. The only nail I struggled to get off was the index finger where I used some cheap nail glue to stick it back down like a week ago.Now that they're off, I realised how flimsy they actually are. I was able to squeeze them down like chewing gum, literally fold them in half! I'm just so angry right now. I've had stick ons last for up to 6 weeks and these barely lasted a day. Awful experience.
