I Love the color on your middle finger. So pretty. Can't wait to hear how these cheaper products work after being on your nails for a while. Please update us, & thanks for ALWAYS giving us honest reviews!
Price shouldn't determine quality, but it for some reason matters to some people. Same with makeup. So many people are makeup snobs. Just because it's less xpensive doesn't mean it's not a good product. ugh
You are exactly right about that . If it doesn’t have that popular brand name people assume it’s no good . These all very good wearing polygels . I’m about to do my 1 week up date in them and I must say , I’m very impressed . Gelish was one of the first to come out with a polygel ....Honestly , it’s way too soft and the Nails wear down . It’s garbage for 58.00 a tube .
Just ordered a-nails and I cant wait to get it! Thanks for doing these videos on the polygel because paying 39 for one tube of the more expensive kind is out
ooo! I have a full set of the Mshare, and I'm thrilled with them! Wearing the clear right now. I was able to apply these by myself as a total newb using duo forms.
how odd! when I do my own search for A-nail on ali, it won't come up with anything, but with your link it did. But then, scrolling down under manufacturer, it says "Saviland"...it is odd, but I think I'd like to try it and the other brand too. I love Mshare because it stays where you put it and doesn't require a lot of alcohol to keep it from sticking to the brush. And I like the duoforms because I'm not good at smooth nails even with filing. You're right about it being much harder to file. That stuff must be made of iron! I'm so happy to see more nail artists trying products I'm interested in! Thanks!
Saviland is BOMB nowadays! Like down to the packaging and little goodies the kits come with. Available on Amazon Prime now too😁 it's seriously like one of my FAVORITE BRANDS! Right up there with Makartt and Gershion
So awesome seeing your video on Simplynaillogical!! You deserve much more fame! Your videos are the best of the best! Thanks for being such an inspiration to me!! 😘😘
I tried a whole polygel kit that came with everything you need, in october 2019. It wasn't that expensive, about 11$. I ordered from eBay and the brand was lily cute. It was nice working with the polygel 😊.
They all look great Denise I used to be fussy about only using madam glam or Yinikiz but there’s so many varieties out there I’ve tried many to find as time has gone on these gels have really improved over time, the Saviland gel I’ve bought a couple from AliExpress I hope they are ok, the beeline clear forms your using I bought 500 of these from eBay they really are good Denise they are firm and I put the tab seal at the back of all my forms for added support, they hold up so good these forms I swear by them I am very comfortable with these forms, this is a very good video Denise, and your right about the soak off they don’t just soak the filing off with a drill is the best way then they can be soaked in acetone with individual acetone soaked cut cloths and foil over each finger, that final soak gets everything off if they have been drilled first, I’m so pleased you showed this video because there are polygels out there that most techs have never heard of & you have proved they do work, hope your having a wonderful Christmas dear and eating loads and having treats and drinks too, Christmas comes only once a year it’s so lovely to indulge throughout the festive season, stay warm my lovely and have a wonderful holiday season you are amazing👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰
This was a great video, I honestly think sometimes brand companies test these cheaper ones and then find one they can improve and brand. Most are made overseas.
You are absolutely correct . Only what they really do is pick one of these and test it to see if they like it and then label it as theirs . No improvements down at all .
Thank u for video. I normally get my nails professionally done but with virus going on now I have to find a alternative!! I'm about to order the Saviland glitter set and hope I can do it by watching RUclips videos!!
Want to thank for sharing this video. Just received all my materials and I finally did my first set of nail.. gotta say way easier then acrylic and I didn’t even use the dual forms!
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed same here. I’ve used acrylic a lot before but I started hearing about polygel but I wasn’t gonna spend a lot of the expensive stuff to try it so thanks for the cheaper alternatives!
Great review really honest I loved that, I’m just getting in to Polygel and I’m finding it easier than I thought, it’s lovely to shape I’m in love with it 😍
A-nail is the first and only poly gel I've used. I love it ive done a few sets now and I'm a beginner bur glad I have this brand. The only other brand I hope to try is gelish but that's expensive
Thank you so much for the review! This is so helpful! I’ve used MShare and it is a soak-off, came off easy after soaking for a relatively short period of time. I’ve been thinking about getting Saviland but was afraid I might end up wasting my money. Never heard of A-Nail, so thank you for reviewing it! Your videos are so helpful, thank you for contributing to our nail community ❤️❤️❤️
Beth Magalski I do file my nails down maybe halfway so I don’t have to wait too for it to soften. A few seconds of filing with a good coarse bit will save many minutes of soaking. I use cotton balls (vs wipes) and really soak them in pure acetone (I use Supernail); that way the nail will continually have acetone to absorb as it penetrates the nail. I use clips but I still wrap them in aluminum foil before I clip them close so the heat can help the acetone work better. I’ve also used bandage wraps to keep the cotton in the aluminum foil in place, works quite well, keeps the dripping to a minimum. I’d say it soaks off somewhere between acrylic and soft gel. I am just starting to use gel, I mainly used acrylic in the past so compared to that, polygel removes like magic lol
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed it looks like an amazing product again also just wanted to say thank you for all that you do and these videos im just starting out and your videos have always helped me you make everything look easy and give me inspiration to try new things when i was just starting your videos were the first nail videos i watched on RUclips ive been watching ever since anyways sorry for the long comment 😁
It's funny! I've been watching your reviews as I'm thinking about a major career change & I'm also interested in trying out gels for the first time, rather than go to a salon why not learn how to do it myself & become a nail tech? I saw your aquarium video, which led me to hers. At first, I thought she wasn't going to be for me, but she does grow on you. Must be a generation thing, although I think her demographic may differ from yours Denise, but I can be wrong. Both were entertaining & informative.
Thank you for doing a review on the cheaper brands and being so honest. I just purchased Gellike from watching a review of Jamie's (babygirl ) I don't remember if you tried that brand or not. If it doesn't work out I will definitely give the one you picked a try. Thank you again
Thank you so much for each & every product reviews you do! You're perfect at these types of tutorials, you're a professional & your high standards show through. I have never tried gels, polygels, or acrylics on myself but I have had many sets done in the salon(acrylic only, before gel). What would you recommend for someone who's new & obviously not a tech to start out with? I know nothing about UV/LED lamps, wattage/input/output/brand/pricing. Can a lamp be a one-all be-all? Drills too, have seen several of each & drill bits. Would it be better to start out as you are in this video, or the "pop-its" you've shown? I've seen starter kits, but again, no clue what's the best to buy, where to begin & what's a bad line to get. I noticed a different tool you used at 5:18, but what is it? Sorry for the long comment, I just have so many questions & your experience & professionalism I highly respect. Thank you for your time & money going into your own channel & your reviews! Both are highly costly, but they are extremely appreciated! Thanks in advance of you choose to respond. Have a great day!
I love the aline only thing is the clear is a little muddy. I used makartt clear on one hand aline on another encapsulating glitter and I can tell the diffrence. It is very easy to work with though. Thanks for your review
I'm looking at buying polygel, but I'm not sure what else I need. I have a dehydrator, do I need a primer too? I also have a base gel, but its a basecoat for gel polish, not builder or polygel. Do i use that? And what about lamps? I use a small lamp that works perfectly for regular gel polish (1 minute per layer), but it is small and I have no idea how many watts. Also this video was a live saver. I was looking at the $30 ones from madam glam. Had no idea they could be so cheap.
Thank you as I’m still wanting to switch from acrylics to polygels. I will order these A-Nail polygels to try. I just ordered the Markatt’s as well. I would really like to get away from the acrylic smell but still have the strength as I’m not easy on my nails and gels are to soft. I like the mix of these polygels. Thank you! Also. Could you do a series on how well nail polish wears on these polygels? And maybe how well gel polish wears on the polygels? I would be interested to know. T/u! Harla
Thank you ... you will like A Nail . In all honesty , I love my regular hard builder gels . The clarity is unmatched by acrylic and any polygel . Regular hard builder gels are just as strong as any acrylic nail .... as long as it is a “ hard gel “ . They must be build correctly and thick enough . Hard builder gels are also slightly flexible too . Wearing them helped me not break my pinky nail totally off and have it be more serious of a injury . Thank goodness . Just don’t believe it when people say gels are not as strong as acrylic, cuz that’s not accurate .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed I have used regular gels (& builders) and just don’t like them. It’s messy for me as I am not naturally talented. Lol. However, I just tried these Markartt polygels and I’m in love (so far, Day 1). I want to try the the A-Nail as well but I do not see a base coat from them. Any ideas on that? It doesn’t look like Markartt sells there’s independently as well. Do u have a brand of base coat you recommend that could be used with these 2 brands once my Markartt kit runs out?
MShare seemed pretty hard to me . Thanks for letting me know . Yes , you need to get A Nail....for the price you can't go wrong . Hope you and the family are well .
Thank you so so much for this video if you do another one can you try elite 99 I did order it I heard its good but still haven't received it yet so maybe if you get a chance you can do that one please... O yes I just ordered one of the A- nail I love there nail art product they are pretty good quality so I'm gonna give that one a try too thank you so much for doing these videos I absolutely live them and I definitely make decisions on what I order depending on how they perform when you try them out so thank you again can't wait till the next one
I need your expert advise please! I have very thin nails naturally. I have to add product to them to function with them at a longer length. I don't want to use acrylic, but rather gel that I can infill when needed instead of soaking off. I've tried just about everything, but there is always lifting less than a week later. What would you recommend I use/do? Thanks!
Kha Am I have a similar issue... Ive taken to using nail glue at times (like the rhe stuff in the bottle with the brush). A layer of it on my bare nail and then whatever polish or gel i want. The glue dries kinda textured and i feel like it helps things stay at least a little longer. Tho im not a professional and im kinda rough on my nails. So other than the glue and being sure to paint polish all around the free edge to seal it off ive yet to find a really good way to stop it completely :/. Adding a refresh of a top coat after a few days might help to reseal everything tho?
That tool is called a gum stimulator. You can find it at the stores in the dental Isle . But a lot of times they don’t have these. I order it off of eBay.
Here is the update on Madam Glams polygel 2 Week UPDATE on Madam Glam * POLYGEL Nails * ---- Did it CRACK on Me ?ruclips.net/video/-LCTXJ5LQMo/видео.html
Saviland is Definitely available on AliExpress for even cheaper for what was quoted in this video. It’s more expensive on amazon but again it’s available. I’m watching bc I KEEP seeing it for very cheap & didn’t know if I should buy it but I am now lol
May i ask which of all these mentioned isn't overly runny? Looking for one that won't run down the nail like my current ones. Trying to build the apex is frustrating 😬 I was searching for A-nail but Gabi is right - they don't seem to make that one now.
Well , some people have said there is a new formula out and that it’s now a real polygel . I can’t be 100% sure on that ...cuz some people don’t know what the differences are in gels and polygels . Heck , some people don’t know the difference between acrylic and gel . Let me know what it’s like when you get it in , please .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed forsure I will. I knew about the company Gelish and Makarrt and they’re the real deal but I also heard some from aliexpress are decent so I wanted to try it out because a gelish and makarrt kit are from $40 to $60.
Good morning Denise, How are you this fine Sunday morning? A quick question if I please may... out of all the clear polygel/gum gel. Which is the clearest you'd recommend for coverage?
I'm wondering whether it is best to do a thin layer first then put in uv lamp for 30 seconds before building? Then might not get un-cured gel underneath. I saw other techs do a thin layer of clear also.
It will definitely help . The clear forms really helped me . Also , it should cure better over top of a clear glue on top . Saviland was the only one that’s done that to me so far ( besides Gelish brand ) . All others have cured quickly in my dual lamp . The Saviland colors looks beautiful top coated .
Is there a reason you aren’t using the nail clip on things that you pull off after curing? A mold so to speak? Curious as to why, as they seem to be used to often. Tell me your knowledge oh gracious one. 🙏🏼
You are referring to what is called dual forms or pop it’s . Yes , there is a reason I don’t use dual forms all the time . I always sculpt my nails with forms . The sticky paper forms . Or on the occasion I will use a glue on plastic tip . This is the proper way to create nails . This way I can always have a properly constructed set of nails . Nails that are formed with a correct apex and are stronger and more durable . Polygel is not strictly meant for dual forms . That is a misconception that some people think . Polygel is not new to nail technicians either. It’s been around for years . It was first used with regular forms and glue on tips . My thought process on a dual form is that : the only people who use them all the time , are people that are not trained or licensed in the real ways to construct properly formed nails . In other words for people who do their nail at home , untrained , unlicensed . You won’t find dual form use in any salons . Artificial nail enhancements are meant to be worn indefinitely and filled every 2 - 3 weeks . With dual forms it’s hard to fill a nail . Usually it will break before then , because of its structure . I hope that answers your question . Remember , Polygel was not created for use with only a dual form .
first of all I love all of your videos! 2nd i had a few questions about the poly gel and the isopropyl alcohol. I'm allergic to acrylic and I am looking for an alternative. If i'm allergic to acrylic do you think I will be allergic to the poly gel and the isopropyl alcohol?
Thank you . Yes , if you are allergic to acrylic there is a good chance you will be allergic to polygel . It has s lot of the same ingredients . Are you sure you are allergic to alcohol ? It’s not liquid monomer like you use with acrylic powder . Isopropyl alcohol is what they clean your skin with before giving you a shot or drawing blood . The only way to know for sure if you will be allergic to the polygel you choose to use , is to test a little on and around one nail . Then you will know for sure .
When you use UNT that means you are not wanting your polygel gel nails to last indefinitely . You can peel them off right after you are finished doing them . A rubber base is a normal base gel and it’s just more flexible . It for long term wear under builder gels and or polygel . Some builder gels have a built in base coat and you don’t need one .
@@Denisejohn65NailEd Ah I see. I always thought they were more to protect the nail from burning under the light. But they're just to make extensions last longer?
So I purchased poly Gel from AliExpress in rose pink from A-nail and I can’t get to stick to my nail , I don’t know if I should use a top gel coat as a base coat . What should I do ??
First of all you need to prep the nails correctly and apply your dehydrater, primer and base gel . Use your alcohol or slip to smooth the polygel into place . Use my prep video to learn about how to prep your nails . I will put the link in .
No problem . I hope it helps . Make sure you have at least a 36 watt led lamp or a uv/led dual lamp with at least 24 lights in it so it will cure properly . Under cured and improperly prepped nails will cause polygel to peel off .
I am watching you from Italy.. 😊 Do you always use just Isopropryl alcohol? I ask you because sometimes slip solution are expensive more than polygel 😁
I have many videos on that already . Here’s my playlist . All info is in these videos Polygel Reviews , Demos and Wear Updates .ruclips.net/p/PLWgEMPXY2lxpxOUXTQO4Sfs6hmIKfnfTm
How long did each brand last, as far as wear, on your nails? Weeks? Days? Any lifting? Cracking? Thank you.
Aww man this was my question too
I Love the color on your middle finger. So pretty. Can't wait to hear how these cheaper products work after being on your nails for a while. Please update us, & thanks for ALWAYS giving us honest reviews!
I sure will ….Thank you for watching .
Your voice is so soothing. And I love that your videos are straight to the point

It’s garbage for 58.00 a tube .
It doesn't because you never pay for quality you only pay for the brand name only
Thank you for your demo. It really helps those newbies (like myself) trying to figure out which products are worth a try . :)
Just ordered a-nails and I cant wait to get it! Thanks for doing these videos on the polygel because paying 39 for one tube of the more expensive kind is out
You will really like the A Nail .
Thank you sooo much you’re one of my favorites 🙏🏾❤️💃🏽. So professional yet honest and accurate about product reviews.... We love you

I did do a newer video on the colored Saviland polygels and I like them .
Yes, you were correct. Gel be must used with clear tips or forms. Or something a little transparent so it can penetrate all the way through.
Thanks for doing this review. It's great to know your thoughts about the A-Nail.🎊🎉Such good info you pass along to us. Thanks again👏
Thank you for watching .
Once again you did all the hard work. Thanks for the heads up!

I’m happy to see one that doesn’t rush through there videos!!! A+
Thank you . I try to cover everything in a certain amount of time . I’m not one to sit through a 30 minute video .
Marvelous. 😉👏👏 Thanks for the info.
A-Nail.... They could have thought about that name just a little longer.... 👀
🤣 I agree .
This was a great video, I honestly think sometimes brand companies test these cheaper ones and then find one they can improve and brand. Most are made overseas.
You are absolutely correct . Only what they really do is pick one of these and test it to see if they like it and then label it as theirs . No improvements down at all .
If someone doesnt like the gel color, can it be painted over with regular nail polish or gel polish instead of removing the whole nail?
Yes , of course !
Thank u for video. I normally get my nails professionally done but with virus going on now I have to find a alternative!! I'm about to order the Saviland glitter set and hope I can do it by watching RUclips videos!!
TashaWells buy dual forms I’ve watched many videos and it looks simple :) I bought my self a poly gel kit too I’m excited to get mine in :)
You can do it . I like saviland .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed it’s called pinpai*
Saviland is sooooo good!!!
It’s very easy to do with dual forms. Make sure you pick the shape you like (they go from rather flat to clawy looking).
Awesome job and the price is nice to. I hope that you have a wonderful day and Tyfs
Thank you so much Denise for test A nail ❤️❤️❤️
Want to thank for sharing this video. Just received all my materials and I finally did my first set of nail.. gotta say way easier then acrylic and I didn’t even use the dual forms!
That’s awesome ! I’m proud of you . I don’t really care for dual forms . I sculpt for the most part .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed same here. I’ve used acrylic a lot before but I started hearing about polygel but I wasn’t gonna spend a lot of the expensive stuff to try it so thanks for the cheaper alternatives!
Great review really honest I loved that, I’m just getting in to Polygel and I’m finding it easier than I thought, it’s lovely to shape I’m in love with it 😍
Thanks . Yes , it’s pretty nice to use . The trick is keeping it thin . I’m still struggling .
Your videos make me so happy!!! 💕💕💕
Just got the A Nail arrived, tried it out and it's so easy to work with! Thanks for this video, I finally found a decent polygel dupe!
I k we you would like that one . You’re welcome .
Did it last at least 2 weeks?
Yes , more than that and you can fill it .

Im glad that A-Nail polygel was here. Im a beginner for this.
I always absolutely love your videos 😘
😊 thank you
Wow it looks easy to use & for that price that's great thanks for sharing 💛💛💛💛now I wanna try polygel
It’s a pretty good polygel for the price . I have several reviews on different brands of polygels .
Thanks for sharing this useful review Denise 👍

Thank you for watching 😊
Thx for this video! Really helps with my questions
I’m happy to help you . Be safe and healthy !
Can you post an update saying how long they wear/if they snap? That’s the only thing I’m weary of with these cheaper polygels
Yep , I sure will .
About how long does the polygel go, as in how many sets do you get out of th he tube.
I realize this is older video, but I love the Saviland pink 10. How can I get my hands an opaque pink like that? Cant find that one.
Maybe do a search on Google
Great review. I was wondering - have you tried building a nail as a french manicure & if so, how did that work?
I'm looking at buying polygel, but I'm not sure what else I need. I have a dehydrator, do I need a primer too? I also have a base gel, but its a basecoat for gel polish, not builder or polygel. Do i use that? And what about lamps? I use a small lamp that works perfectly for regular gel polish (1 minute per layer), but it is small and I have no idea how many watts.

I would really like to get away from the acrylic smell but still have the strength as I’m not easy on my nails and gels are to soft. I like the mix of these polygels. Thank you! Also. Could you do a series on how well nail polish wears on these polygels? And maybe how well gel polish wears on the polygels? I would be interested to know. T/u! Harla
Thank you ... you will like A Nail . In all honesty , I love my regular hard builder gels . The clarity is unmatched by acrylic and any polygel . Regular hard builder gels are just as strong as any acrylic nail .... as long as it is
a “ hard gel “ . They must be build correctly and thick enough . Hard builder gels are also slightly flexible too . Wearing them helped me not break my pinky nail totally off and have it be more serious of a injury . Thank goodness . Just don’t believe it when people say gels are not as strong as acrylic, cuz that’s not accurate .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed I have used regular gels (& builders) and just don’t like them. It’s messy for me as I am not naturally talented. Lol. However, I just tried these Markartt polygels and I’m in love (so far, Day 1). I want to try the the A-Nail as well but I do not see a base coat from them. Any ideas on that? It doesn’t look like Markartt sells there’s independently as well. Do u have a brand of base coat you recommend that could be used with these 2 brands once my Markartt kit runs out?
You can actually use any brand of base coat you want . When I use a base , I have been using The Gel Bottle Incs rubber base coat . I love it !
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed thank you! Your the best! 😁
Awesome video!
Thanx so much for the review! I already have the MShare and know that it doesn't soak off. 😞 The A-Nail looks good though I might give it a shot.
MShare seemed pretty hard to me . Thanks for letting me know . Yes , you need to get A Nail....for the price you can't go wrong . Hope you and the family are well .
Thanks for this! going to try that a nail :-)
I love watching your review 😘😘😘
Thank you so so much for this video if you do another one can you try elite 99 I did order it I heard its good but still haven't received it yet so maybe if you get a chance you can do that one please... O yes I just ordered one of the A- nail I love there nail art product they are pretty good quality so I'm gonna give that one a try too thank you so much for doing these videos I absolutely live them and I definitely make decisions on what I order depending on how they perform when you try them out so thank you again can't wait till the next one
Thanks ...I have 2 more left to review and after those ….I'm done . I gotta go on to more nail design videos . I'm missing them .
Thank you for sharing ! .... Also I just want to be sure on this . Are you only you alcohol as far as the liquid part ?
Yes ... isopropyl alcohol... 91 % ... Walmart has it ... any drugstore
How long you can wear these nails? Does still hold? Does they crack?
No cracking . I wore them two weeks and filled them .
I need your expert advise please!
I have very thin nails naturally. I have to add product to them to function with them at a longer length. I don't want to use acrylic, but rather gel that I can infill when needed instead of soaking off. I've tried just about everything, but there is always lifting less than a week later. What would you recommend I use/do?
Thanks!
Kha Am I have a similar issue... Ive taken to using nail glue at times (like the rhe stuff in the bottle with the brush). A layer of it on my bare nail and then whatever polish or gel i want. The glue dries kinda textured and i feel like it helps things stay at least a little longer. Tho im not a professional and im kinda rough on my nails. So other than the glue and being sure to paint polish all around the free edge to seal it off ive yet to find a really good way to stop it completely :/. Adding a refresh of a top coat after a few days might help to reseal everything tho?
What is the tool called that she begins using at 5:17 to get between the gel and cuticle?
That tool is called a gum stimulator. You can find it at the stores in the dental Isle . But a lot of times they don’t have these. I order it off of eBay.
Hello. Question, do I have to use that rubber base gel that you used first if it doesn't come with the kit that I get?
No . Just use the base you have .
Could you do a video on the polygel but with tips? I would really like to see that :))
I have a video on using polygel with tips . Here it is . ruclips.net/video/U9rx1q7CXpo/видео.html
Thank you so much chica! Do you have an update on the lifting and such?

I almost bought the a nail last night lol i definitely will be now!!!!
I bought 4 tubes of the A Nail last night . ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your review
Thank you for watching 😊
I have already tried the a nail one and it was amazing
You know what ? I can’t find that brand anywhere anymore . Where did you get yours ?
Would this be ideal to use on someone with short bitten nails?
I don’t recommend anything on bitten nails period . The person needs to stop biting nails and grow a slight free edge first .
Do you think the Saviland products would cure better with dual forms?
I think that they will cure very well . You don't use as much gel as I used in a dual form ….and also with clear nail forms and glue on clear tips .
None out of the 3 are available anymore😭 could you recommend a similar cheap one that I can buy asap?
Yayoge is a great polygel and I love the consistency . I also love Tones polygel .... Makartt is ok too , but a little too sticky for me these days .
Actually I do have that and tried it on a sample Nail . No video review though . It’s nice . Good consistency . I think you will like it
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed thank you very much!💗💗
Saviland is Definitely available on AliExpress for even cheaper for what was quoted in this video. It’s more expensive on amazon but again it’s available. I’m watching bc I KEEP seeing it for very cheap & didn’t know if I should buy it but I am now lol
May i ask which of all these mentioned isn't overly runny? Looking for one that won't run down the nail like my current ones.
Trying to build the apex is frustrating 😬
I was searching for A-nail but Gabi is right - they don't seem to make that one now.
Dear my polygel not dry quickly what's a reason? Is it necessary to put my nail under UV light or I can dry it normally?
YES , you need a lamp to cure polygel !!!
@@Denisejohn65NailEd thank you dear
I know nothing about nails, so, what is that liquid she's dipping the brush into?
Alternative Luva I think it’s rubbing alcohol aka( slip solution)
@@happygirl789456123 Thank you so much!!
Thanks Denise.
Thank you for watching .
Those are beautuful. I will def look into them. TFS
Did you ever get them? If so, how were they for you?
@@Elizabeth-tp4mq no I didn't. I'm still looking around trying to find my best option. I'm really picky
how many ml Polygel is required for such size 10 nails which is in video?
30 mil
@@Denisejohn65NailEd Thank you ! And which one do you recommend for nail salon? ^_^
@@mariamiak1016 Figure it out
Madam Glam , Tones and Yayoge
@@Denisejohn65NailEd - I’m sorry to contradict you, but you don’t need a whole 30 ml. tube to do a set of nails.
None of the links are available anymore
I ordered the venalisa polygel from AliExpress. Did I just make a bad purchase or ?
Well , some people have said there is a new formula out and that it’s now a real polygel . I can’t be 100% sure on that ...cuz some people don’t know what the differences are in gels and polygels . Heck , some people don’t know the difference between acrylic and gel . Let me know what it’s like when you get it in , please .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed forsure I will. I knew about the company Gelish and Makarrt and they’re the real deal but I also heard some from aliexpress are decent so I wanted to try it out because a gelish and makarrt kit are from $40 to $60.
You should check out my playlist on all the polygels I reviewed .
I just used the new Venalisa formula and it's AMAZING!!😁
Please leave your link . Thanks
Good morning Denise, How are you this fine Sunday morning? A quick question if I please may... out of all the clear polygel/gum gel. Which is the clearest you'd recommend for coverage?
Well , out of the ones I tried .... Moyra brand is the clearest .
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed Thank you 😊
I'm wondering whether it is best to do a thin layer first then put in uv lamp for 30 seconds before building? Then might not get un-cured gel underneath. I saw other techs do a thin layer of clear also.
It will definitely help . The clear forms really helped me . Also , it should cure better over top of a clear glue on top . Saviland was the only one that’s done that to me so far ( besides Gelish brand ) . All others have cured quickly in my dual lamp . The Saviland colors looks beautiful top coated .
Where do you get your clear nail forms ? Thank you so much for your reviews , I always enjoy your videos ❤️
Janeen Utley if you search "clear nail forms" on aliexpress they come right up
Is there a reason you aren’t using the nail clip on things that you pull off after curing? A mold so to speak? Curious as to why, as they seem to be used to often. Tell me your knowledge oh gracious one. 🙏🏼
You are referring to what is called dual forms or pop it’s . Yes , there is a reason I don’t use dual forms all the time . I always sculpt my nails with forms . The sticky paper forms . Or on the occasion I will use a glue on plastic tip . This is the proper way to create nails . This way I can always have a properly constructed set of nails . Nails that are formed with a correct apex and are stronger and more durable . Polygel is not strictly meant for dual forms . That is a misconception that some people think . Polygel is not new to nail technicians either. It’s been around for years . It was first used with regular forms and glue on tips . My thought process on a dual form is that : the only people who use them all the time , are people that are not trained or licensed in the real ways to construct properly formed nails . In other words for people who do their nail at home , untrained , unlicensed . You won’t find dual form use in any salons . Artificial nail enhancements are meant to be worn indefinitely and filled every 2 - 3 weeks . With dual forms it’s hard to fill a nail . Usually it will break before then , because of its structure . I hope that answers your question . Remember , Polygel was not created for use with only a dual form .
Was honestly just curious, thank you.
Sure thing
first of all I love all of your videos! 2nd i had a few questions about the poly gel and the isopropyl alcohol. I'm allergic to acrylic and I am looking for an alternative. If i'm allergic to acrylic do you think I will be allergic to the poly gel and the isopropyl alcohol?
Thank you . Yes , if you are allergic to acrylic there is a good chance you will be allergic to polygel . It has s lot of the same ingredients . Are you sure you are allergic to alcohol ? It’s not liquid monomer like you use with acrylic powder . Isopropyl alcohol is what they clean your skin with before giving you a shot or drawing blood . The only way to know for sure if you will be allergic to the polygel you choose to use , is to test a little on and around one nail . Then you will know for sure .
What does the rubber base coat do? I only ever use UNT peel off base coats under gel because I swatch so much
When you use UNT that means you are not wanting your polygel gel nails to last indefinitely . You can peel them off right after you are finished doing them . A rubber base is a normal base gel and it’s just more flexible . It for long term wear under builder gels and or polygel . Some builder gels have a built in base coat and you don’t need one .
@@Denisejohn65NailEd Ah I see. I always thought they were more to protect the nail from burning under the light. But they're just to make extensions last longer?
Base gels act like a glue for gel to stick to .
is the base coat and top coat for poly gel the same thing as the base and top coat used for shellac gel?
Looks great! How long did the shipping take?
About 3 - 4 weeks
Thanks you doing this review
Thank you for watching .
So I purchased poly Gel from AliExpress in rose pink from A-nail and I can’t get to stick to my nail , I don’t know if I should use a top gel coat as a base coat . What should I do ??
First of all you need to prep the nails correctly and apply your dehydrater, primer and base gel . Use your alcohol or slip to smooth the polygel into place . Use my prep video to learn about how to prep your nails . I will put the link in .
Here’s the prep video
NAIL PREP Instructions for ACRYLIC , GEL & POLYGEL Application - ( NO LIFTING ! )ruclips.net/video/lqMJoj4-A0M/видео.html
. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed your a life saver ❤️❤️ Thanks so much
No problem . I hope it helps . Make sure you have at least a 36 watt led lamp or a uv/led dual lamp with at least 24 lights in it so it will cure properly . Under cured and improperly prepped nails will cause polygel to peel off .
How long does the A-Nail last before starting to lift or breaking?

I love that brand
Will you be doing a wearability test? Just want to see if there's durbality like the more costly poly gels. Tfs! :-)
Definitely ... I will up date at a week and 2 weeks
What brand is the clear form?
It’s unbranded
Hiii I luv ur video!!! Question, what’s the liquid that u used to keep the brush wet? x
It's just isopropyl alcohol .
Rubbing alcohol and isopropyl alcohol are the same thing .
I am watching you from Italy.. 😊 Do you always use just Isopropryl alcohol? I ask you because sometimes slip solution are expensive more than polygel 😁
Yes , pretty much all the time .
Thanks for this 👍👍👍 I’m gonna try the A Nail 💕💕 would you soak off or file??? Looking forward to update x
I just file off ….its just easier for me .Thank you for watching .
what liquid did you use to mold the polygel? and what bond or primer do you use?
Isopropyl alcohol ... any % is fine ... or if you want to buy a slip . Any brand slip will work
Idol can you please tell me the step by step aplication of this polygel.thank you so much
