Makartt Solid Nail Glue Gel: Super Strong Nail Glue for Press On & Acrylic Nails, 3D Gel Nails Art Design, Long Lasting Clear Adhesive 15ML, UV Lamp Cured, Ideal for Home Salon DIY Use

I'll be passing these along to a friend, as I am unable to use them. Can only fit index/middle/ring (sorta), leaving no good fit for thumb or pinkie nails. It's a shame because they seem well made and excellently priced. Revised 1/2024 - figured out I can adjust the thumb fit by slightly filing the edges to narrow and the base to change that curvature! (Yes, I felt dumb for not thinking of it first.) Pinkie nail was fine, don't know why I didn't like it the first time. I've now worn these twice and been absolutely delighted - they are easy to apply and shape, lightweight enough to feel relatively normal and very comfortable, and they took polish like a dream. Not a chip or wear mark the whole time. Still wish I could order the specific sizes I need, now that I know what those are.

My teen daughter wanted nails done for a dance. I was not about to spend 50-60 dollars on fake nails at a salon. So I ordered these and glue. It worked out perfect. They look really nice. The only thing is that the thumb nail sizes were a bit to big for her thumb. Because we were in a hurry I didn't have time to file the thumb nail down around the sides. So we just used it as is. I think for my first time applying nails, I did good. I googled "how to apply acrylics" for tips. I suggest if this is your first time also, to do the same I ordered the "short" nails because I think my daughter is to young for the longer length. They could have been shorter. I imagine the "long" length are VERY long. Overall, a good value. They are sturdy. Before you glue on the nails you will have to file the tips just a little bit to file off a piece of plastic that sticks out. I have a few special events coming up and I will be using these nails for that day.

I got the short clear oval tips. I'm no pro, but I've been doing full cover tips of some sort on myself for 20+ years to keep me from picking my nails, so I know what works for me and what doesn't and know how to make them look pretty natural. These seem like high quality full coverage tips, and I really like Makartt products in general. That said, I am returning these because they will be unusable for me without a ton of modifications. There are some important sizing issues that buyers should know going in about these, because they can impact how you wear them: - they run SMALL... I'm talking 3-4 sizes smaller than most U.S. full coverage tips. I have quite small nail beds already, but these were verging on child sized. I typically wear a size 3 or 4 on my thumbs and a size 10 or 11 on my pinkies. With the Makartts I had to go to 0 on the thumb and 7 on the pinkie. - the sizing also seems a bit inconsistent between sizes, meaning there's a larger jump between some sizes and smaller jumps between others. Within a bag they seemed all the same, so at least quality control seems good. - the c-curve is pretty flat to begin with, and if you do any filing to adjust the sizing it quickly flattens more. Because they are so sturdy, they resist bending which is normally a good thing for strength, but in this case it's not so good because of the next point. I already have flat nail beds on most my nails and normally have to fill the c-curve of most full cover tips with gel or glue, but these tips were so flat that the side walls were floating up in the air! I've never experienced that before. - the cuticle line is super square in all sizes. Normally most people's thumbs have more of a square cuticle line and smaller fingers have more of a curved cuticle line, so many full cover tips reflect this. Still, since everyone's cuticle and finger shapes are different, many of us are used to lightly shaping the cuticle line of tips to get them to fit better. However, filing the cuticle line of these tips caused the c-curve to flatten even more and I ended up with floating side walls. Overall, I just couldn't get these tips to fit me without a ton of adjustments and they just ended up looking odd. There's better fitting tips for me out there so these weren't worth it. Perhaps if you have super flat, super square, super tiny nail beds these will work better for you. I still love Makartt, just not these tips.

Loved this for my nails

Wasn't bad just had little product and had broken open at the top and spilled on my carpet. You could probably find something for cheaper that's better quality.

I make press ons professionally and have used many different brands. By far this is the worst one I’ve used. Yes these are for a natural more flat of a nail bed, but they are so flat that most of my clients are complaining of gaps on sides of nails. My own nails don’t have a natural apex either and I tried them, they do the same. You also have quite a bit more prep to do than other nails I’ve used. The shaping on these is really messed up. Especially with around the cuticle way too bulky. But I’ve also noticed you can only get away with filing so much because at a certain point in the nail it has absolutely no curve at all, if you file into it you make even bigger gaps when you put it on yourself or client. Only ones I’ve gotten to stay without gaps are ones with no filing and some do still gap. Which is terrible because the shape of the nails is supposed to mimic your own nail bed shape in order to look like a shop did them. And I specialize in making nails that are sturdy and have the look of acrylics from a shop. I also noticed that some nails are sized weird. Like the 4 was covering my cuticle and too big, but the 5 didn’t completely cover my nail plate and hat gaps between nail and side walls. Never ran into that issue before. I would try to return these and buy something else but I know it’s past time to return. I typically do XXL sets so it took me longer to figure out that not only are these thangs shaped/sized weird, but if you try to file them to look right they leave giant gaps. Never had another natural type nail do that. I’m going back to Apres. They’ve got their s%|* together. 😂

These were exactly what I wanted. No more filing or shaping, which im not so good at.

I am no professional, but I thought I would try my hand at doing my own nails. I decided that I couldn’t trust my left hand with the gels (coz you know not a professional or coordinated) so I got these coffin tips to paint then glue on. I was actually impressed. They were easy to work with and they are not too thick once you put 4 layers of gel. I would definitely buy these again :)

These are very strong and durable, have great shape and length, and they’ve become my go to when I do my nails; the sizes are quite small though. I have small hands and the size 0 just fits my thumbs. If you have small hands these will work great for you, if not though you might be better off looking for something else.

Its not very small. Sticking perfectly and flawless

Relativ stabile press-on tips für diesen preis, besser als manch andere. Die Größen sind jedoch problematisch, da die größte Größe zu klein für mein-und anderer Daumen sind.
