Hey you! Yes you! The person who has bought every glue at Walmart frustrated at the world because that "super strong hold" glue you just bought to hold your nail tips down that you spent 2 hours perfecting... only for them to pop off on the first can of soda you opened. The person who has tried all of the glues out there, even that super expensive name brand uv glue that seemed like it was going to work but then let you down like a brick in the ocean. Buy it, don't over think this one, just buy this and a good uv light. Seriously you found the glue you were looking for, this is it! Do it! I'm not being paid by this company, I've never heard of this company before this week. But I've went through them all, I have very bad anxiety, and I spend the 70 dollars to go get my nails done to try to keep me from chewing on my nails. But I always chew on them anyways and usually chip them almost immediately, I'm guilty of spending 2 hours doing my nails then immediately picking them off. They normally snap right off no matter what glue I get. Which is another reason why I pay the extra to get them done. But this glue, man let me tell you something. Seriously get over here and listen up to the story! So I'm like hey I want my nails done, but I don't want to pay the salon prices. Maybe I should just go buy an acrylic set? But omg the time it takes to invest into that, then my shakey hands shaping these things? I'm one frustrated zing with the file from becoming Edward scissor hands over here with one weird snaggle nail then file file file and what was once an almond shape is a square, then a nail even with my finger tip because I suck at shaping. So I'm like let's do this right, right? I go out and buy a kit with a nice plug in uv light and a fancy plug in file... straight professional, I know. 💅 Really I'm just half copying what I remember my nail tech doing. Then I grab that nail dehydrator and primer stuff they use in the salon... you know the stuff. And cat eye paint? Yes please... that's like 5 dollars extra a nail in my salon! Then I need glue... the bane of my existence. So I see the reviews and I'm pretty much like "yeah sure, heard that nonsense before but I'll try..." now we are here and I'm writing this right now. Get it! Why are you still reading my ramblings?! Anywhos, I go straight up nail tech the moment the box of goodies shows up. Sneaking out to the porch in my pj's hoping that amazon delivery guy doesn't see that I'm a full hot mess. Snatching the box up like the villain in a comic book and tearing into it like a starving raccoon on a munchies binge. Put that file to work, use the primer, the dehydrator, and the perfect little almond shaped nails, then this stuff... uv light was kinda tricky to get the hang of with the first one so its so not in the right place. I go to remove it? It doesn't budge. At all. I'm seriously chewing at this thing like a hyena digging into a steak bone. Seriously had to peel it off little by little like a proper nail appt. It took several minutes to get off just to correct it. I get things perfect... spend days putting these claws through the ringer. About 5 days later I'm chewing the nails (yes I have a problem... I know... nails are cheaper than therapy... jeeze judgey) I manage to pick off a corner of a nail then you know, after that the entire thing must go... It took me a half hour to remove the nail and it wasn't like a solid that just pops off like nails usually do. Nope, the nails bent before the glue and had to be slowly pryed off. Is it the right way to do this? Probably not, but what about this review makes you think I'm doing the boring normal way of doing things? So all of this is to tell you, buy the glue! You need this in your life... maybe the primer and dehydrator liquid too, but this for sure. Stop wasting your money on the glorified super glue.

THESE SURVIVED MY WAREHOUSE JOB Yall, I am an amateur and do my own nails cause I am a broke babe. I've been using actual super glue for years until I wanted to try the gel glue for better results. The first time was janked. I didn't do it right and the Nails popped off in about 20 minutes. So I did my research and did the proper prep and YALL THEY DONT MOVE I buffed, dehydrated, primed, used a base of gel foundation and then just a SMALL amount of glue and bam - instant manicure. I say SMALL amount of glue cause the glue will spread and cure on your cuticle and make it look so bad. I work in a warehouse. I'm talking forklifts, conveyor belts, and thick cardboard boxes to be opened by hand. My nails stayed on all day even after several incidents that they normally would have flung right off. 10/10, but do your research first!

I expected this to be like most other glues, where it lasts a day or 2 and the nail pops off. But to my surprise, they last like a week or better! I do alot of baking, kneading and working with my hands and most of the time nails don't last long on me but this stuff is GREAT. Occasionally 1 may start to peel and ill end up just redoing a nail or two after like a week, but these really last. I purchased a UV light on Amazon as well for this glue. Definitely will purchase more when I run out!

Drying time is quick, thickness is just the right amount. Application is easy enough for a beginner. Fits any space no matter how big or small the nail is. The quantity is a good size for the amount you pay for. 10/10 recommend.

UPDATE a few days later. I added a star to the rating for strength and durability. The first picture I posted was the repair for a ripped thumbnail - I mean it was starting to rip right across the middle of the nailed, is it was going to take a serious repair. Since then, two more nails on the same hand were showing signs of getting ready for painful mischief, so I added a nail to each of those. In the second picture, just now posted, the new nails are on my middle and ring finger; the index and pinky are still just my own fingernails. I did not add a fifth star yet because I will have to have more time to really test this product fully. But I could almost give four and a half stars right now if I could. First, I will say that I use artificial nails primarily for repairing a torn or too short natural nail, so I can wear anywhere from one to 3 or 4 at a time, depending; I just have never had a full set on all at once. I ordered the UNA GELLA nails and the adhesive together, just to repair one thumbnail, which ripped across the middle a couple of days ago. Shortly prior to that, I had removed all my polish and filed and shaped my nails, so they were clean. The first glue instruction says to clean them. My torn thumbnail has been wrapped in a bandage for protection until the arrival of this package, about an hour ago. I ordered UNA GELLA because I was tired of the impermanence of another nail glue and nails commonly found in the cosmetic aisle at any grocery store. So I thought I would give resin a try. My issue with the glue is that you are instructed to continue pressing the false nail down WHILE you are curing it. It won't stick any better than, say, honey, until it is cured. To cure, it must be exposed to light. When you have an extra finger or two pressing the resin nail onto the nail bed, the light is obstructed from doing its job. I had to do multiple light cycles, trying to carefully hold he nail on and pressed down from a variety of angles in order to get the most exposure. When I was confident that it wouldn't pop off, I did one last 60 seconds without holding the nail on. The test will come when I see whether the new nail is still firmly in place when I wake up tomorrow morning. Now for the nails. As I said, I have gone through several packets of "that other brand" of nails and glue. The nails are flimsy, and the glue doesn't last - hence the order of UNA GELLA - hoping this works out better. That was my rationalization for ordering a kit of 150 nails. That's probably a lifetime supply for me. The kit is as shown in the product info - a compartmented plastic box with a hinged lid and ten compartments within. The compartments are actually numbered on the lid, with zero indicating the gigantic nails and eleven being the tiny ones. You just have to try on until you determine which nails will fit you. I LIKE that they are offered with different shaped tips - I like the rounded - but I am not sure why the nail itself is so, for the lack of a better word, domed - it is very rounded from side to side and base to tip. I have never met anybody with such rounded nails. Maybe it is supposed to enhance adhesion. Maybe you are supposed to use A LOT of glue to fill in the empty space. If you press down hard enough for the inside of the resin nail to touch your actual nail, you have to hang onto it while it dries or cures. I am just a little nervous about the higher center of the resin nail trying to separate from my own and the darned thing popping off. Jury is still out - I will come back and modify my review and rating depending on how things go. I will be extremely pleased if I have found a reliable repair kit and nails that last.
