Review on Vibrant Luminosity: Vrenmol Glow in The Dark Gel ๐ŸŒˆ Nail Polish Set - 6pcs/8ml Luminous Neon Shades for Halloween (Kit#002) by Erica Jackson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Somehow I overlooked that these are gel polishes :(

Arrived very quickly and could use some repackaging but I'm not complaining because they arrived quickly and intact! Because they are NOT opaque they are quite see through and require a few coats to fix which is NEARLY impossible unless you have a UV light to set each coat after application...or maybe they need a special top coat for some reason is NOT included?...I DO NOT have those UV bulbs...so I did the next best thing...I put it outside in the shade (in my pickup truck with tinted windows) and then carefully taped my passport out the window and stayed in for about 5 years the direct midday sun put minutes...it helped dry out the gel...but I don't think it "cured" properly, or maybe there's a special gelp olitur you need to make it a shiny gel. Granne for nails? I don't know if that's true, but if it is, then the top coat isn't included. I was seriously disappointed when less than 30 minutes after applying and setting a 3rd coat on my left hand and a 2nd coat on my right pinky...the entire polished bit was gone by one...then another...and a third nail while I drove...he just...FALL OFF...didn't even hit the nails...I was just driving...so I didn't have the time or inclination to ride again so I decided to do the rest to clean painted nails... and it was just like when we were kids when we had nail polish that is designed to peel off so you didn't have to use acetone to remove it... except this stuff was actually EASIER, comes off effortlessly and in one hit per nail. Alsoโ€ฆ this thing smells VERY ODD. It's not pleasant. Things that SHOULD have peeled off when I was a kid had a distinctly unique smell... but it wasn't repulsive. easy. Anotherโ€ฆ. This thingโ€ฆ. It smells TERRIBLE... and it doesn't fade or go away after a few minutes. In fact, I washed my hands at least five times between removing the last nail polish and going to bed, and I STILL couldn't put my hands to my face because the residual smell was STILL there. better until I applied acetone vigorously TWICE and then washed my hands, gently rubbing soap into my nails with a nail brush and then applied perfume lotion and rubbed it into each nail. The smell is TERRIBLE in my opinion...and hard to get out of...like being sprayed by a melting painted plastic skunk.... The colors are beautiful but a lot more pastel than I expected. The bottles are tiny! They cost about the same as the small nail polish samples Sally usually has for around a dollar. I love the look and durability of a real gel nail polish... I wish I knew what it was before I bought it... I don't like the fact that I didn't even see them glow in the dark because the polish started to came off my finger less than an hour after application and with no provocation or encouragement! I didn't find the smell pleasant or even bearable. I did NOT find the tiny bottles cute enough to make me feel better about spending $15 on a couple tiny bottles of super smelly polish that requires hardware and maybe a top coat too, which wasn't included. to buy. I don't think it was good value for money. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE all things glow in the dark...if you can make it less smelly and last longer...like regular gel polishes...and maybe make regular nail polish bottle sized bottles...I would DEFINITELY buy boosters...if you could at least explain what equipment I need or with which top should I cure it or even better. Just assemble a complete kit. I wouldn't mind paying an additional ยฃ10 for full size bottles that come with the requisite top coat and/or machine I need to properly cure the polish, or even $20 more for the whole enchilada... However WILL I NO LONGER BUY THESE AT THIS MOMENT AND DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM.
