With forms it’s a lot easier. Since it’s cured, you have time to mess with it until you get the desired shape. There’s still some practice needed, but not as much as trying to sculpt with forms.
Thank you so so much for doing this video! I’ve been contemplating getting one of their smaller kits and this 100% sealed the deal for me!!! Thanks for reading my mind!!!
Umm as someone that used to work as a nail tech,you really gotta know what your doing and how you apply this stuff.if there are pockets under that you'll end up getting moisture trapped in there and therefore fungus😒 No you dont need a electric file to remove,use pure acetone soaked in cotton,wrap each finger w tin foil,this way you dont destroy your natural nail.quite honestly I would go by this vid,always best to ask a actual nail tech.
Nooooooo do not invest in this pleaseeee...I have bought several expensive and inexpensive brands and while they look good on they do no last at allll. You can easily pop them off without any effort
When I was a nail technician, Polygel were my to go nails. The process is simple and because I wasn’t use to doing acrylic nails, my cousin told me to practice with polygel. My one regret when I was in Beauty School was not learning to do acrylic on ACTUAL human hands 😭
@@WildVee if your master is good it doesn't, also you shouldn't remove all of the gel just to make next manicure, so I don't understand all the arguing in comments)
@@АнастасияГриценко-ъ1т uhm.. nobody's arguing? I'm just saying it burns regardless of the nail technician. For anyone reading, if you get them done, remove them yourself at home by filing them down and wrapping them in acetone. It works much better and hurts less (+ costs less)
@@WildVee but acetone hurts much more to your nails, and also usually you don't cut cuticula off, so acetone hurts it too :( It only depends on the structure of nails and are they thin or not and of course it depends on your master and how good he works
I just bought one of amazon and i have never used one before and im broke so i decided eh lets give it a go! The one i bought was 50 dollars comes with 10 different poly gel tubes a light, brush, the special liquid, the spatula thingy, and the nail forms im excited to try it out!
I love love love this video! It actually gives the steps so perfectly so simple and without making it look devastatingly difficult because it's really not and they really do look beautiful and I love that the rubbing alcohol can be used for so much that's just great, big big thumbs up from me love this video!
Ok I’m officially hyped tf up RN! I just ordered this a few days ago and I can’t wait til I get it even more now!!! Thank you for reviewing this product!!
Thank you. This tutorial was very clear and for the first time I understood the entire process and think it would be quite easy. The only thing that scares me is the removal process bc it is a little rough and certainly time-consuming. TFS ☺️
Thanks for the video. I recently purchased this kit and was very happy about how easy it was to lengthen my nail without using a nail form or tip. Plus it is fairly easy to file. Will definitely be using it again.
i just asked for this for my birthday and this comes up on my recommended! thank you for the tips on how to remove the gel, i wouldve been stuck without you!
hi! i used to watch all your tutorials religiously years ago and now i found you again! love it! what is the lamp ur using though? Is it the 18 watt toy led bblamp? does that wattage work quickly? thank you!
i’m not a big fan of acrylic/false nails but this makes me want to try it! btw, you should do a polygel kit giveaway! (it would be helpful for people who can’t afford it)
Wow that’s amazing, you are so skilled, I’m sure I can’t do this. I want to, because I won’t pay for nails, they’re so expensive, and my nails grow so fast. Your 2 weeks growth is 3 or 4 days for me!
I would advise not to try it. It is so incredibly damaging to your nails. But if you must try it and cannot get it out of your system until you do, by all means. This may be the only way to realize the damaging effects.
kj m if you don’t do it properly... you need to prep your nails properly (file the shine off your nails, remove any excess skin on your nails near your cuticles, dehydrate and prime your nails etc). It should last several weeks if you do it right
for filling the nail do you just paint the polygel on the base (like an acrylic) and then use the uv lamp on the nail? or will this damage it/ not set correctly without looking weird?
Aw thank you so much. I've recently bought some poly gel and even though they come with instructions I always like to see a video as well. I tried it the firs time and I feel I put too much on so when I pressed the mould down it squished out the sides:) I'll.keep practicing
People be thinking about getting this... WHO'S GONNA LOOK AT YOUR NAILS IN LOCKDOWN? 😂😂😂 I left mine undone and I swear I never had this much freedom when typing 😂😂
Miss Priss if you’re new to the poly gel world I would suggest one nail at a time if you have the patience, just to ensure you’re avoiding any air bubbles, and that you’re able to perfect your nail shape before curing!
I tried this gel and others. I work in catering, kept it a low length and it did not last. I think this is good if you do not work with your hands a lot, have your hands in water a lot or just are doing a lot where there will be wear and tear.
Oh god, as much as I would love this, the removal process gives me nightmares. Once took off gel nails at home and my nails, especially my left thumb nail, was damaged for MONTHS (around 5 or so months). Also, another time, had gel polish removed at a nail place and they didn’t remove most of it and it was just frustrating. I think I’m just gonna stick to like lacquer polish
When I do it, it’s about 1/4 of one tube, depending on desired length. The tubes that come with this kit are trial sized, so they’re pretty small but they sell bigger tubes you can buy after you get used to using the polygel and decide what color you like the most.
Naomi Goddard thanks ! I wouldn’t do long nails like this because of work, they have to be short. So this could probably last a while. And could you paint them with gel if you wanted to ?
@@taniecethesinger I paint mine with gel polish all the time...you can also go over them with the potted color gels(IDK what they are called I get mine in AliExpress)
Yay I'm one of the first people, I love all ur vidoes it really helps me , specially when I'm going to a party or when I'm going out to dinner and also special events😀❤❤❤❤
You don't need to use the spatula to put the gel on the form. Put a small bead directly on your nail and then smush it down with the form. Use the brush to smooth out the gel while it's on your nail from underneath.

Yeah that would be me too❤❤❤
Omg that happened to me
So damn true.....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching this cuz my salons are closed and I need a fill 😩
I literally had a whole pinky nail come off at work I feel you 🤦🏼♀️
Did you buy it????
Me too!! Ordered an electric drill, acrylic powders & primers, stiletto nail tips, UV lamps not remembering that I already have 2 & the polygel kits
i feel like i would suck at using this lmaoo

Thank you so so much for doing this video! I’ve been contemplating getting one of their smaller kits and this 100% sealed the deal for me!!! Thanks for reading my mind!!!
i would recommend the $25 one. it comes with four colors but is great for beginners, also you will have to purchase a nail cure machine.

If you want descent nails you need to invest in going to the salon,those gals know what their doing.

Which is better for ya nails polygel or acrylic nails
Removing gel from nails hurts my heart
It does actually hurt and burn, especially with the drill
Y’all making me scared to get my nails done

Great demonstration. Clear and concise. Thank you.
I got this kit, a while back, and I LOVE it.
Does it come with the Uv light?
@@haileymeyer3913 no
How much does it cost
Tiffany Lane are they like acrylic nails?
Can you pain the clear gel?

So thankful to RUclips that once in my life a recommendation is helpful
The way you do it is so satisfying
R.I.P. nail salons? Lol 🤔
Star Harris no some people still love acrylic and gels plus not everyone wants to take the time to learn to shape their own nails.
Polygel nails don't even last long 🤷🏽
That’s true! Lol
Nope it’s just like hair salons vs box dye
Nope i can’t file my nails
They look so natural I love them 😍😍
I love love love this video! It actually gives the steps so perfectly so simple and without making it look devastatingly difficult because it's really not and they really do look beautiful and I love that the rubbing alcohol can be used for so much that's just great, big big thumbs up from me love this video!
Ok I’m officially hyped tf up RN! I just ordered this a few days ago and I can’t wait til I get it even more now!!! Thank you for reviewing this product!!
The kits amazing I just didn't expect the tubes of polygel to be so small
The best tutorial EVER thank you so much

I just ordered something similar. I’m sooo excited. 😍😍😍 I need something that won’t chip off in an hour and look that amazing 😍😍😍
i just asked for this for my birthday and this comes up on my recommended! thank you for the tips on how to remove the gel, i wouldve been stuck without you!
Your natural nails are so nice...
Beautiful polygel color!! Will you do a short tutorial on how you infill?
Need that
Just ordered it can't wait to finally have nails again!
i wanna try this!!
good
Yes ☹️☹️
Me too
Amazing
@@nouraleghnimi5260 how r u
I have that one and is really good it last quite a while and is really sturdy. Amazing
i think the ploygel with nail tip might be better than using the acrylic powder and it gets messy all over. the gel type is the quickest thing.
It's fascinating as I have nail biting habit and love long nails
I’m shook I’ve been watching CutePolish since like middle school 😭 I can’t wait to try this. ❤️✨
She has really cute nails 🤩🤩😍😍😍
I can't even put on the fake nails properly let alone form my own nail 😂😭
hi! i used to watch all your tutorials religiously years ago and now i found you again! love it!
what is the lamp ur using though? Is it the 18 watt toy led bblamp? does that wattage work quickly?
thank you!
Could you do a video on gel basics. Like what watt lamp to use. I'm new to gels and I am r really confused on what I need. Thank you!
check out Nail Hub!!!!
shes a pro gel nail artist
So beautifull 😍😍
Could you also review the same kit they have but with the glitters? I would like to know when/how to apply them in a video :)
Longhairprettynails reviewed that kit! It's stunning and she did a great job!

Very well explained, straight to the point. Great video, thank you very much !!
Thank you! I was curing and curing and it was still sticky. You showed how to wipe that off with alcohol and voila! Beautiful nails!
How much polygel do you use for all 10 nails??
Did u got the led lamp in the kit?

😂
@@shrijasrivarshini *nudge* yep me too.
Technically only one person will benefit from it so I don't think it's gonna help really
@@alanahorner8012 Yeah, it wouldn't even help anyone except the person that won.
Plz dont polygel nails do not last at all..im speaking from experience lol
So do you like fill in the base like you would woth acrylics? Or should i remive completely to redo?
I have this kit, its a decent kit, love the colors and LOVE those dual tips!! I works great on me but no so good on some of my clients
your nails turned out so well, they're sooo pretty! =)
I've always wanted to try dual forms with polygel, really easy to use when just one nail broke and you don't want to shorten the others yet 🤭
Wow that’s amazing, you are so skilled, I’m sure I can’t do this. I want to, because I won’t pay for nails, they’re so expensive, and my nails grow so fast. Your 2 weeks growth is 3 or 4 days for me!
Kewllll i wanted to try it out UNTIL i saw the removal process...😭😭😭 But i really wanna try it!!!
P.s. TINY youtuber here ehehee 😘😘😘
I would advise not to try it. It is so incredibly damaging to your nails. But if you must try it and cannot get it out of your system until you do, by all means. This may be the only way to realize the damaging effects.
@@Ciesiam Gel and acrylic is much more damaging than polygel.
Plz don't try this polygel nails pop off so easily and do not last at alll
@@Ciesiam Polygel is not harmful to your nails. Poor removal and/or prep is what's harmful
kj m if you don’t do it properly... you need to prep your nails properly (file the shine off your nails, remove any excess skin on your nails near your cuticles, dehydrate and prime your nails etc). It should last several weeks if you do it right

you are absolutly th best!!! I ust got a question, can I over paint the nails with a uv nail polish? thank youu
Can you show us how to do a fill? I bought the kit
Uhhhh....WHAT?!??? I’m literally buying this Right now??? Wow I’m amazed
I love that nail shape!😍Only stilettos or square/ballerina style now a days😩
Lovely... Thanks
This is such a nice way to wake up. Thank you for being so pleasant!
Omgg your nails look perfect 👌
Makartt has the best polygel! Just wish they sold the Misty Rose in the bigger tube.
How would you do a fill?...🤔
Great vid! After two weeks instead of totally removing the nail, do you think you could give yourself a fill in for the new growth?
You definitely can!
I Loved watching it 😭😍
make the thumb blue if you think cutepolish did a great job. sandy that polygel kit made your nails look very nice.
I always wanted to try this gel now I'm buying it, thanks
Aw thank you so much. I've recently bought some poly gel and even though they come with instructions I always like to see a video as well. I tried it the firs time and I feel I put too much on so when I pressed the mould down it squished out the sides:) I'll.keep practicing
Thank you, cutepolish! Which drill do you use here? 🙏💕
can you paint over them with nail polish to get different colors/ designs? Or is polygel not meant to be painted over
you can
The brand she used comes in colored poly gel. It’s on amazon :)
@@katiearce1329 ya but the kits are mainly pinks and neutral colors :/
Beautiful💚💚
Can you polish over these nails with regular nail polish?
Yes
Wow it's gorgeous!!
People be thinking about getting this... WHO'S GONNA LOOK AT YOUR NAILS IN LOCKDOWN? 😂😂😂 I left mine undone and I swear I never had this much freedom when typing 😂😂
Can you paint colours over polygel ? Using gel polish or normal nail varnish or do you just buy polygel in diff colours ??
Can u do refills on this or do you have to remove and reapply every time?
I am not doing this but it is so satisfying to watch this.
What e file drill do you use? Will you drop the link to a good/reliable one?
Thanks!
Do you recommend doing one nail at a time or doing the entire hand before curing the gel?
Miss Priss if you’re new to the poly gel world I would suggest one nail at a time if you have the patience, just to ensure you’re avoiding any air bubbles, and that you’re able to perfect your nail shape before curing!
I feel like mine would look like slime at the tips of my nails😂
Czz
Absolutely gorgeous
you sound like barbie and i appreciate this video
Do you think you have to remove all the polygel each time or maybe just do a 'fill' in the area that has grown out? TY :)
This nails don’t need to be removed after 2 weeks, I refill mine after 3 to 4 weeks and they look amazing and last just like acrylic
Hows u dry 5his gel plz tel me I apply this gel but can't dry
You need a UV light to dry it, it dries in 60 seconds
How do you apply to the root of the nail growing ? That is my only concern about try this ones 🙏
I tried this gel and others. I work in catering, kept it a low length and it did not last. I think this is good if you do not work with your hands a lot, have your hands in water a lot or just are doing a lot where there will be wear and tear.
Thanks For reviewing!! How do you infill these though?🤔
Cute nail paint
Hi,
I have a question.
When you made those nails,does it hurt when your natural nails grow?
Thank you❤️
No it don't hurt
There's no reason it would don't worry
Wow i nvr knew nail extension is made like this. This is soo cool
Oh god, as much as I would love this, the removal process gives me nightmares.

You skipped one of the most important parts, the fill! Nobody is going to take these completely off every 2 weeks and start again. How do you do it?
Donna Lynn That’s kinda what you have to do though. Or fill and hide it with nailpolish.
No - you just need to take some of the top thickness off and prep the new growth area and overlay it again. No need to remove it completely!
Looks really nice but how long does the poly gel actually last?
Yay I'm one of the first people, I love all ur vidoes it really helps me , specially when I'm going to a party or when I'm going out to dinner and also special events😀❤❤❤❤

I need that kit like yesterday! I pay way more at the nail salon than the cost of the kit from Amazon 🙄😑🤯
It’s very helpful in lockdown cuz we all are doing our own nails at home
