UNA GELLA Short Coffin Shaped Gel Nail Tips-360pcs15 Sizes-Clear Press-On Base Tips for Full Acrylic Nails - Short Ballerina Coffin False Fake Tips for DIY Nail Extension-Soft Gel Tips for Salon

Being a girl is hard! Nails are expensive at salons! As a stay at home mom I needed something I could do on my own time without worrying about going to the salon. These nails are budget friendly and can easily get a minimum of 4 uses. The length is ideal and the shape is top tier. The classic French is classy, simple and cute. I like that the shade is a nude and not a shade of pink. I’m no nail expert but these were so easy to apply and easily last 2 weeks at minimum and that’s with me cooking and cleaning, etc. However; make sure to prep your nails before for best results! I pushed my cuticles with the cuticle tool as far as I could and clipped the dead/extra cuticle around my nails. This gives you that clean look and allows the nails to adhere better. I then buffed my nails gently with a nail buffer and left the powder like that. I then applied the beetles gel nail glue on each nail. Then applied more glue on each nail tip (mid ways down and allowed the excess glue to pool on the bottom of the nails tips for a good adhesion. Place the nail tips at an angle and gently press down so no air bubbles form (if you have air bubbles the nails won’t last!). I cured each nail tip with my natural nail for 30-45 seconds in a goose neck lamp. Once you have them all glued; I buffed the pointy tips and bottom to ensure a smooth finish as you don’t want sharp nails. finally, I added a thin coat of top gel coat to each nail and cured in lamp one whole hand at a time. And voila, manicure at home! LOVE THEM!! Get them! And remember, practice makes perfect!!

I’ve tried numerous types of press ons and traditional acrylics, dip powder, silk wraps, etc. I’ve always preferred a natural looking nail. Short length as I work with my hands a lot. I’m glad I have this brand a try, and definitely a great value for the price! You can get 12 sets out of these and they are neat let organized in their box while being attached to some kind of stencil type thing. You just size up the press in nail to your natural nail and pull the individual nail you’re going to use off. I got the pink 3 short almond style. I have long nail beds and other short almond press on have been a bit too short in coverage in length but then the mediums would be too long for my preference. This brand and their short almond length is perfect! And the sides of press ons suit my slim fingers while giving full coverage for the length of my natural nail. They have a glossy finish to them and under the press ons they have a matte finish to better adhere them. I’ve used gel glue and also regular brush on nail glue. The gel glue after curing will tend to change in color when using a very sheer nail color press on. So I use regular nail glue for this. The way these press on nails are designed, the back edge of the nail is very thin and comfortable to place slightly under your cuticle for a seamless look and the rest of the nail to the top is just thick enough for stability and doesn’t bend or crease. They definitely feel like good quality and amongst all the other press ons I’ve tried, including the very popular branded ones, this brand is now my favorite! Great quality, 12 sets with the 288 piece, perfect short length, and cuts down prep time! And these are the perfect shade of a natural pink for me.

Great dupe for the very pricey ones. Beginner friendly. They are thick which I love. They look like the picture. It does not come with glue. As long as you top them with a top coat and cap the end and sides. No worries about chipping. Just the normal wear and tear from having a full set of nails done at a salon. Same difference. We got nails at the house. Lol

I really like the look of these nails and with their tube of soild gel glue they stayed one great except on because I missed a bubble in the gel. The first week they were perfect but after that the builders gel and top coat seemed to fracture inside making the French tip look like it was full of weird bubbles and the tips started to pick up a lot of marks and scratches That might be my error in application. Past a week the new growth that the cuticles looked funny and the nail looked thick so be sure to file them down. I dud but it still chipped etc. A great choice for a week.of wear after that beware.

I've always been a Una Gella fan and they finally have a French Almond shaped nail in a pink color (like acrylic) that I absolutely adore. I couldn't wait to put these on. Perfect length, shape, width and strength after you use base and top coats. (I always use 2 each if I'm not using builder gel) I used their tube UV glue to adhere them because it usually lasts me a few weeks before soaking off. Anyway....the nails are gorgeous. I will most definitely purchase these again! Una Gella fan for life!!!👍 👍

UPDATE:: The company contacted me right away and offered a refund. I didnt pay much so I dont mind. It was really nice of them so thank you!! I will let them keep the money. I was finally able to give these a try. I used them as a nail form for poly gel. Pros: Nice size a not too curvy so it fits a flatter nail bed. A lot of nails to select from to get the best fit. flexible and thin Clear Cons: they are really thin Not easy to handle, you need to be experienced Not the best to use as a nail form for poly gel I had to really work on popping it off after curing. Back of the nail form could be a bit thinner so it doesnt cause a line if you are using it as a tip. That would help with the grow out problem. Not sure if it can be filed down so you can back fill it with acrylic or gel. Over all They are helpful. If I were to use them as just a press on nail with super glue I feel they would stay on about 2 weeks. I have not tested to prove that. I am glad I have these. I feel that they are just temp fix to a problem. New Update: both nails snapped right off. Didn't mater if I used the actual nail and glued it on or if I used it as a nail form and made a poly gel nail out of it. For no reason at all they just snapped and broke. So these are going in the trash. OLD review: I will give these a try.. They are extremely thin and cheap. it feels like they will crack and break or pop off with no effort at all.. I will try and update, right now I can tell its probably a waste of money. I would think that thinning them out twords the back so there isnt much of a seam line makes sense.. to have the whole nail super thin is not good quality. You get what you pay for.

I absolutely love these tips. I’ve been gluing on tips and painting them with gel for as long as I can remember, and these are the best tips that I’ve found! They work with any nail glue, and are sturdy and strong. I do wish they were shorter but they’re easy to file and shape. I saved the first strip of nails that I used so I don’t need to measure out what size I need every time I do a set (I just go off what size is missing from the first strip). I did buy the x-short almond as well and the sizing and width are terrible (but this isn’t about those!).

I am totally in love with these nails!! I’ve tried so many different kinds of press on nails and usually by the next day at least one will pop off. I can’t go anywhere without bringing nail glue in my purse. I’m a mixed media artist and work with many different chemicals, adhesives, paints, epoxy and power tools. I’ve had these on now for 8 days and haven’t lost one yet and none of them are even starting to lift. They’re thin but super strong, look natural, the shape and color is perfect, and I’m constantly getting compliments on them! Highly recommend if you’re looking for an inexpensive and salon-quality solution!
