Beetles Christmas Gel Nail Polish Set, 6 Colors Tipsy Jazz Holiday

This polish stays on well, I am new to gel so I don't know if this is a problem with gel or if it was with these polishes, but I had to clean a lot of goop off of the brushes when I took them out of the polish. Once I cleaned that off though, polish went on well and colors are beautiful. I changed my colors once a week and it stays on perfectly.

Wow, I REALLY love these polishes and I'm not easily impressed! The colors are exactly as shown on the listings, but a bit more accurate to the swatch picture a few slides in. All colors are beautiful and have lasted at least 2 weeks on me. I cure every layer at 30 seconds and a minute for my top coat. The polish is just thick enough to self level without being goopy. Really enjoy and will buy more.

I wanted a bright red for christmas. I was looking for red that leans towards orange spectrum rather than blue. Observations:1. colors are rich2. the light "reds" are more orange than red. The darker "reds" tend towards brown. Color is rich, but definitely not "christmas " red3. Colors in amazon picture look like vibrant orangey reds for the 2 lighter ones of the 6...definitely orange, not red.

Got this polish as I really wanted the red color shown in the photo. The price to buy the set of colors versus one just made sense and I’ve bought this brand before and love it! The quality is great and only takes 2 coats. No chipping!

These are all so beautiful, the brush is very good for application and two coats are enough.

The colors are great! I just feel like they do chip a little easy but other than that,no complaints.

The media could not be loaded.  UPDATE: I guess I'm going to have to eat my words because as much as I love this polish, some colors just don't stay as well as others. I've had a few that chipped after only five days and my daughter has reported some of hers have chipped in three! It's so sad, because the colors are SO lovely, but I have to be honest- all colors don't behave the same. I recently did my nails with the burnt orange color from this set and not only did it keep running into the edges of my nails while painting, it also chipped in less than a week. I think I'm going to have to start painting with even thinner coats and maybe use two coats of top coat to keep it there. I'll still buy this polish but I have taken off a star.I've said it before and I'll say it again, there's nothing wrong with this polish! If there's a problem, it's likely your base or top coat causing the issues. I originally recorded my most recent journey to this conclusion not even meaning to! I did my daughter's nails and it was awful- complete fail! I couldn't believe my precious Beetles polish was giving me problems and doing just what other reviewers had said it did! I'd never had any problems with this polish before so it was with a heavy heart that I recorded this fiasco- only to realize half-way through that I was using a new base coat that I hadn't used before! The SAME base coat I had used to do my daughter's nails the day before! After four coats and still hating it, I took it all off and started over with a base coat I know I like. (I don't think I can mention it here but it's in the video.) By the way, Amazon only allows one video per review so it looks like I'll be telling my story with pictures!Long story shorter, the base coat I used wasn't from this brand, I've never used that before. It was new, though, and had GREAT reviews and came with a shiny top coat AND a matte top coat so I ordered it. Not even thinking about it, I used it to do my daughter's nails with some new Beetles colors I ordered at the same time. It never even occurred to me that it might not be good because it worked fine on all the swatches I used it on (at least I think it did, I can't remember which I used on which). Her manicure was a mess! I couldn't keep the polish from running into the creases next to the nails and it kept separating in the center as a result. I apologized but she's not picky and liked the colors anyway (all the new Beetles colors I just ordered, she only used the yellow from this set on her pinkies). Not one to give up easily, and even though I have two other shades of yellow from this brand that are also new, I decided to do my own nails in the same yellow that didn't turn out well on hers.I'm trying to label the pictures but my editing skills aren't doing me any favors! It's a shame I told the whole story with a series of short videos and I can only upload one but it is what it is. I took pics of the stages that the polish wasn't working with the bad base coat but I only took video of the same procedures when I started over with a good base coat. Unfortunately, I only have a few pics of the final product from the next day (the ones with the ring finger done in purple, Beetles 909).This video is after taking off the first four coats with the bad base coat and starting over. At this point, I have the 3rd coat of yellow (226 from this set) with the good base coat. I did go ahead and add a 4th coat of yellow, just because it's a light color and I wanted it super opaque. It's GORGEOUS!! I can't wait to use it at Halloween with matte top coat!Beetles colors 901 (green) and 902 (peach) used in this review are in the Beetles Summer Sweet Candy Collection.Beetles colors 907 (blue), 909 (purple), and 911 (purple) used in this review are in Beetles Aquamarine Mermaid Collection.

Sorry ladies, as you can see I went a little crazy with my inventory. I really should’ve taken a picture after I applied the nail polish but it came out really beautiful. My other issue is with chipping. I think I need to add maybe another top layer (2 coats instead of 1) and/or maybe a third layer of the polish for a longer wear. I do love it though and highly recommend.

I will start off saying that i absolutely love these polishes, the colours are so on point for this time of year, Autumn. When I first used them i struggled i have to be honest, because they where so thick, i must have gone through nearly ten false nails each time they came from under the lamp wrinkly, .So to sum up this is how to apply these nails perfectly.Step 1. Apply thin coat of base coat. Then cure.Step 2. Apply thin coat of polish. Then cure.Step 3. Apply 2nd thin coat. Then cure.Step 4. Apply top coat of choice. Then cure.Following these and you will get a flawless result.

Great product and lovely colours have bought more sets

Not as vibrant as advertised (which you can see on the photo). The red is more pinky/purple and doesn't seem to go with the rest of the colours.I'm a nail tech and followed the instructions (the 60-90sec rule) I found with my led UV lamp I only needed 60secs to cure but after doing my nails withing 6/7 hours or so they began to bubble and lift off my nails (as pictured)Claims to have a low smell but honestly out of all the gels I own, this is by far the least 'low smell' I own, and in fact has a strong smell to it.I'm really disappointed in this set. Even though the colours seemed watered down it was still a nice set and I still used 3 of the colours. But as the product does not last and lifts I cannot use it on clients.

Love these polishes, however the colours aren’t always quite what they seem to be.I love the product. No harmful smells like some other well known brands I have used.They last well if you know how to do it properly!Very time consuming when doing your own hands but never the less if you enjoy this kind of thing then it’s not bad.I do find the bottles in this package are bigger than the other packages they do which is great more for my money, but the colours are slightly off, but don’t let that stop you! They are beautiful!

The media could not be loaded.  Colours don’t match the advertised photos however they are true to the colour stickers on top of the bottle amazing coverage only the darkest browny. Shade too three coats the other one would’ve done . Or two if you really felt like u needed it . The consistency is quiet thick so it’s best to apply in thin layers . Very easy to use though however I did experience bubble with one of the colours but I will try again with even thinner layers haven’t tested out longevity yet but it will update review once I do This is the “pumpkin set”
