AILLSA Round Extra Short Nail Tips - 450 PCS Upgraded Matte Soft Gel Full Cover Nail Tips No Filed, Pre-shaped Clear Acrylic Fake Gelly Nail Tips for DIY Press On Nails 15 Sizes With Box

I had previously thought I left a 5 star reviews. I've been wearing these a few months now. Previously only used BTARTBOX but they didn't have this almond shape. These are an absolute perfect fit for my small nails (I wear XS gloves and only one size is too big so large nailed people might want to try something else). I didn't care about the etching, I stil big my nails good before using). I use the same glue I used with the other brand that last 2-3 weeks. Some of these will pop off after only a few days applied the exact same way. But the part I don't like is that many have broken - not chipped) horizontally, right at the line west the etching stops. So pretth much the full tip beyond my nail bed. This has happened after only a day of applying, which makes getting the rest of the nail off my nail bed very difficult. I do love the shape though- others I've had to trim down because I type all day but these are the perfect length and look very natural once painted. I used a base coat, the regular non-gel polish followed by Seve Viche quick-dry top coat (you can apply this stuff to wer polish and it dries it all in under a minute. I get less wear overall. About 7-10 days and usually have to reapply during that time several because ther popped off. I though I would hate that they're on a strip and not already loose, but having them on a strip makes choosing the right size easier- just go down the line holding sizes over your nails. I also don't like that they're clear. I've used the "natural" kind from BTARTBOX and they look good without polish m these need to be polished right away. I'd fine 3.5 stars if I could. Love the fit, but not the same quality. Get rid of the etching and they probably would not break off where it end. Use the pink glue here on Amazon, it last the longest.. NOT kiss glue. I used to be able to wear nails until the cuticle grew out in 2-3 weeks with the same glue. These don't glue on the same even though I use the same process (glue on the nail itself and a good amount on my natural nail). There should be enough so there is excess thar squeezes out that you need to wipe off IMMEDIATELY. Then press down hard (pinch) about 20 seconds and you're set. No UV light is required. It dries FAST. Anyway to summarize, great shape but not as long-lasting, break off horizontally if you hit them just right (and you will) and just don't glue on the same. I'll probably go back to BTARTBOX but those are bigger and loose in a box separated by size (which will end up mixed together) and I only use 3 of the 12 sizes. They're bigger than three and require more shaping. NEVER polish before gluing on. Because if you're using enough glue to last a few weeks, excess will get on the polish and you'll have to polish them again.

So I normally spend well over $100 in this new, temporarily EXPENSIVE economy to get my nails done at a salon. I will no longer justify this. I took my time and found these nails here on Amazon. I usually fixate until I stumble across perfection lol. I've had them on for a week now. They look EXACTLY how I used to get my nails styled at the salon and I cannot believe it. My nails are gorgeous, sturdy, and my favorite shape. I can even type on a keyboard comfortably. This is just a dream come true. I invested in gel polish and it legit looks like my salon based mani and pedi which makes me feel like I found the best hack. $These nails fit so comfortably and seamlessly. I'm just very happy and as a girly who is PICKY and has spent thousands on paying (sometimes very unkind or rough) people to do my nails? I WOULD HIGHLY recommend and I will be back to stock up.It's my personal goal now to always keep my nails pretty. Thank you for this product to make that possible.

I was a little skeptical on trying these, I thought it would have been poor quality and not sturdy. But I was wrong! As soon as I cured them one at a time (I was nervous) they hardened and became pretty durable. I use my hands a lot throughout my day, desk job & just a lot of cleaning. So far I've only had to recure one nail because it popped off as soon as I got home from work.I look forward to practicing more with these! & try their other shapes. 😊

So, I don’t want to rag on these too hard because they did get the job done and my nails look nice. However, there were a few things about them that bothered me.First of all, the sizing was strange so some of the sizes I had to file and most I won’t be able to use. For reference, I’m a petite female 5’2”so I would think that I have smaller nail beds than most and these were even too small for me.Next issue is the discoloration. After I cured these on with my trusty rubber base gel, I noticed that many parts of the nail had white spots. Not where the rubber base gel adhered, but the white discoloration was on the tips (see pic) . so if you were using these for a beautiful, clear design or something that is sheer, it wouldn’t work well. It looks strange.Last, I had to scratch up the entire nail after application, add a base coat, then gel polish. Other soft gel nails I have that claimed to be matte, didn’t need a base coat, but these did. they were just way too smooth.So, to summarize, I would say, these are not for beginners. if these were the first ones I ever tried I would probably never want to do them again. But since I knew what I was doing, I was able to fix and cover up some of the issues. Good luck! I hope this helps.

Long nails are a safety hazard for me, I work in the house with my hands all day long, slipping in and out of gloves for dishes, and cleaning, so long nails are not practical for me. I almost took a finger nail off (mine and the fake one both!) when I got them caught in a car door the first and only time I tried to wear longer nails.This is perfect for me, I love that this size was available. Not every woman wants two plus inch long talons glued to their natural nail. Just nice, and not ridiculous, is my preference and these nail forms are just perfect for me. Will repurchase for sure, these are perfect.

I have deep wide nail beds. The length is perfect because I can still use a keyboard. I love that I can have the same color on both sides of my nails too without much effort. I can wear these for weeks at a time. I have a harder time with trimming them as they do crack and break easy.
