I Bought AMAZON'S "MOST WISHED FOR" Products: what's ACTUALLY worth buying??

[@Parenting_neurospicy]

I am a Beetles Polish fanatic. I absolutely love them and I have over 70 colors. The reason it was streaking for you was that you were putting it on too thick. You need to take more polish off the brush and do a thinner layer. Also, sometimes the colors don't match the swatches on the top because they have to cure under the light. So you will find that when it is in liquid form it might look dark or lighter than when it is cured. However the polishes are fantastic quality and I expedite the removal process by taking a nail drill to the top coats and then wrapping in acetone.

[@sabeanie5002]

For the shower steamers: I love the peppermint variety when i have a cold and I keep it in a bamboo soap dish so it doesn’t get gross on my tiles (way easier to clean off the soap dish in my sink)

I use those gel nail polishs and they definitely have a technique to them to make them not lumpy. I find doing VERY thin coats at 60 second cures is the best for a smooth nail~

[@angelacorrea9606]

@@michellecogdill6128 I know I'm super late to this party but for some people, myself included, regular nail polish will not stay on my nails for more than a day, even when I have them done at a salon. Gel polish will last me 2 weeks easy doing it myself, longer from the salon. As with regular polish, there is a bit of practice needed to get it perfect, no one puts on any kind of polish perfectly the first time.

[@tiffanyscottxx]

I agree, they work great once you get the hang of it. I use beetles too and if your coat is too thick, the light can’t fully cure the layer so you end up with it being bumpy

[@grey7596]

with gel polish, i find it helpful to take it slow and use thin coats and you can go over how many times you like until the streaks are gone. if you have a lump on the first coat that gets cured, every layer after that will have a lump. sometimes i'll use a builder gel to smooth out any lumps/bumps on my natural nail to make the painting process easier. altho it does seem like there are colors and brands that have better self leveling formulas? there are also peel off gel base coats for if you are just swatching/testing out colors/like to repaint nails often so you can easily take them off without soaking :) i love how there's no drying time with gel and haven't really touched my regular polishes in over a year!

Quick tip for gel nails, before curing, take a little brush with acetone and clean up the cuticle before curing or else it’s eternally messy ❤️ also they sell gel remover in a bottle that you paint on and it makes it crackle off!

[@padgettcoloradokmp]

For any neon color always use white polish or gel first then apply your neon color - this will make the color POP. If you have a higher wattage uv lamp the cure time is less. You can use a gel brush to apply the gel polish to make it go on smoother, also letting the tightly sealed gel polish bottle sit in warm water can help with thinning out thick gel polish. Thank you for being you!

@@krysaboyce5353 I think all acetone is paint thinner? If you look at the ingredients on the bottle it says 100% acetone, which is extremely drying yes, but for the gel it's the only thing that works. And at least in Chicago and Florida (lived in both) most salons use 100% acetone for polish removal.

This lasts 3 weeks for me every time.

[@dianam1908]

I have been doing my gel nails for years now and beetles polishes are awesome, though for neons you should almost always use a white base coat first, always use super thin coats, gel polish will ripple and bubble up if the coat is too thick that is from the light not being able to penetrate through the polish well. Also make sure not to get it on your cuticles it can cause an allergic reaction over time but more importantly if you intend on keeping the polish on for the 2-3 weeks it will tend to come off your nails faster when its made contact with the skin around the nails. Also there are different types of polishes and beetles is good for mixing them up in their larger kits, you get Jelly colors which will never be opaque they are more see through, cremes which should be opaque in 2-3 coats, glitters which work well for toppers when they are scattered but they so have some really good ones that cover the nail all on their own.....Hope this helps 🙂

I think part of the nail polish problem may have been that you tried to do more than one coat between curing. Like the yellow you said "that's too thin!" And did another layer but it would have been fine for a first coat. To avoid streaks or clumps, you gotta let each layer cure.
