AZUREBEAUTYCuticle Oil 10ml Natural Nail Nourishing Oil & Cuticles Care Strengthener Oil with Vitamin E and Keratin - for Repair Moisturize and Strengthener for Damaged Nails

The media could not be loaded.  The photo posted in my review is to show what color result is achieved with only a SINGLE dip - I was happily surprised to find them to be pastels yet highly pigmented making for such a great coverage off of the first dip. The end result is what was achieved after dipping each nail once more making it only a total of two dips per finger on every color -including the lightest colors like yellow I not only highly recommend this product but I definitely will be a returning customer as long as I have nails on my hands lolMy nails are naturally short so to achieve the finished look I started by glueing on false tips to each nail.***The tips I prefer to use are always clear (vs white tips as white tips I find can be harder to hide under dip powders as the line of where the tip meats your natural nail can be seen through the powder unless you dip each nail repeatedly until it does not -which I find not only to be a waste of time but also a waste of the powder especially when with clear tips only two dips is needed to achieve the same result******Also clear tips in my opinion always seem to be a little thinner than standard white tips which makes them more flexible, bending just as your long natural nail would but yet thick enough to not break off****After glueing on the tips and allowing time to dry - I then lightly buffed the surface to ensure that the false tips laid flesh with my natural nails to ensure each dip would result in a smooth surface allowing for no additional filing needed after dippingAfter buffing the tips and getting them flesh with my natural nails I take a cotton ball and wipe each nail off with nail polish remover - I believe this step is not only VERY important but also this step is what makes the difference in how long your finished nails will stay on. I personally have yet to experience any of my nails popping off on their own by accident and I have done multiple sets to not only myself but my sister as well.A typical set last just about two weeks before I decide to remove them and then redo them as by that time my natural nails have grown out. Without the step of dehydrating my natural nails with the polish remover and removing any dust /oil from the buffing I don’t believe I’d be able to achieve a manicure to last 2 weeks as before including this step in the past I never was able to make it past 3 days before one popped off so I can’t emphasize enough how important that step is.Next I apply a thin base coat (one finger at a time as stated on instructions) and then quickly dip the nail into the powder as if you don’t do it quick enough-the base coat can begin to dry leaving you with an unpleasant dip result.Instantly after lifting the nail from the dip I brush off any excess back into the dip tray and then I apply a coat of activator before I move to the next finger and repeat until all 10 are complete.I then repeat that step of applying the base coat, dipping, brushing off the excess and then applying activator a second and final time to each finger.Once completed with the dipping I Lightly buff the surface of each nail making sure each nail feels smooth as a natural nail.Sometimes extra filing is necessary depending on the shape and length you want to achieve - I do this after dipping since the clear tips I choose to use are thinner than standard tips, but you could also shape the tip before dipping them, really it’s your preference and the order you choose will not effect the end result- just make sure anytime you file BEFORE you dip -you ALWAYS want to wipe each nail with a cotton ball of polish remover - I cannot stress this enoughAt this point depending on the look I’m trying to achieve I would either decorate them or if I’m going for more of a simple look I’d finish by applying a top coatIf you have the option to finish your nails with a gel top coat that requires a UV light to harden then I would suggest doing so as it only creates more strength to your nails -but I personally only use a regular polish top coat, one that’s thicker in consistency giving the affect of an authentic gel polish but dries on its own and no lamp is needed, so again it’s up to what you have available to you as well as your preferenceThe video I posted is the end result after dipping every nail into a different color - no two are the same color. I then applied a thin layer of a clear sparkly polish, to a few nails I applied some rhinestone art and then finished with a high gloss top coatHopefully this helps any one new to using dip, when i started experimenting with dip powders years ago, despite loving the end result I could never seem to get them to last as long as a manicure I got at a salon with acrylic, but over time, with a little experimenting and practice I’ve come to finally achieve the look as well as the length of time they stay on.I’ve experienced with all DIY at home manicure products on the market, including acrylic and poly gel, and out of the three- dip powder has not only been the fastest to learn how ti use as well as the fastest process when apply a whole set, but it’s also been the easiest, the less messy as well as the most affordable. (single bottle of dip powder can last you MONTHS almost a whole year if only dipping each finger twice and having them last 2 weeks before doing it again)I HIGHLY recommend for any one who’s new to the DIY at home manicure to try all the products available, personally I found it fun to experiment with them all but im sure you’ll soon learn how simple a dip manicure is compared to the other methods, as well as how much money you’ll save no longer having to spend your money on getting a set done.What it would cost me to receive a single set at the salon is more than what it cost me to buy this dip powder kit and even the tips combined.

Azure Temperature Color Changing Gel Polish 6 piece setThese are 12ML bottles.Must be used with the base and top coat gel.Must be cured with UV or LED lamp.Curing Time:LED light 30-60 seconds, UV light 2-4 minutes.I cured them the full 60 seconds in my LED lamp as i do with all my temperature color changing and cat eyes gels even though I them checked at 30 seconds and was cured.I used base and top coat with all of them.This set contains 3 micro glitters and 3 glitters gel polishes and a sheet of swatch sticker.I put gel under the removal clear top if you decide to try this also I recommend you don't get gel on sides as it makes the clear cap hard to put back on.Application of these is good.#T38 is a pink micro glitter when cold and a light pink when warm/hot#T25 is a blue mixed glitter when cold and a light pink mixed glitter when warm/hot#T58 is pink micro glitter a when cold and a white with pink micro glitter when warm/hot#T26 is a purple with hexagon glitter when cold and a pink coral with hexagon glitter when warm/hot#T27 is a plum purple mixed glitter when cold and a blue mixed glitter when warm/hot#T46 is medium blue micro glitter a when cold and a silver micro glitter when warm/hotThese are eye catching and so pretty.

It’s very good for damaged nail specialty if you was using gel nails before, I really love it and I recommend it

This was my first attempt. Way easier than I thought!! And I am NOT good at nails nor do I usually even do my nails. I bought false tips on Amazon, an electric nail drill, and got all the things needed to prep the nail beforehand. I also watched videos on YouTube and followed the directions included with the kit. Your best friend is buffing and filing the nail to get it to look how you want. After you do the dip and activator. I also used GELISH top coat and my UV light at the end. I used a coffee filter to put the dip powder in as I dipped, it was easy to pour back into the container!

Got these in the mail yesterday and tried them out today. Instructions are easy to follow, went on easy and quick, and turned out to look just like my nails do from the salon! These are definitely not as high quality as you will receive from the salon- but they do the trick and are beautiful. My first time and it was pretty simple application with little problems. Love it!!Ordering more colors!

Saw this product on tiktok and had to try. It was my first time using dip powder so I made sure to look up all the tips and tricks and it was definitely so easy! There are so many cute combo options for dip powder so I'm sooo happy this product turned out to be easy to use and definitely feels strong. It's only day one but I can tell they will last. Dry time was quick as the directions say. I will definitely be ordering more colors!Update: the later pictures are a few days into a manicure I did, still holding up! I will say again, look up a few tips for best application methods and you will be golden. I had to redo two nails because I jusy didn't like how they came out and had to rush to finish them so I cut corners and those two nails cracked the next day. It just goes to show that with a little practice and patience, they really do last sooo much better than if you just rush through!

I still have to refine my skills but the product itself is great. Smelly though but easy, pretty & strong. Very happy.

I haven’t used this yet, but I have only 13 of the colours numbered in the picture (only top 2 lines in my pic are represented in their product pic). The other 7 are numbers which have no indication of shade so I will have to guess at the end result. There is no shade guide included in the pack. Not ideal.

An update- After using for few months, they no longer last 21 last if they last 14 days that’s a good set, I often have to fix cracks or ship nails after 9 days. Not sure why…Very easy to use, dries fast, good color selection but it would be nice if the containers were labeled with the color swatches. Looking at the powder is hard to determine what color you will end up with, and when purchasing the product the description says that colors may very so it’s difficult to know if you will get exactly as shown or some colors might be substituted. If it wasn’t for the color recognition difficulty I would give this product 5 stars. Be aware that the dipping jars are very small as it’s a starting kit and dipping some fingers might be tricky, I suggest to invest in a dipping powder recycling system to avoid wasting of your powder.

The product is alright even though it can chip, but no matter what I try I end up with a horrible cough and wheeze a few hours after doing my nails. I even tried an N95 mask and the odor still got through my mask and made me sick later on. I am hoping i can find other bases/activators/gels that will work with the dip powders so they don't go to waste, but now also concerned this product may have done some long term damage to my health since I have used it a few times. :(

Polishes doesn't last long on the nail.
