Rio Quick Dip Acrylic Nail Extensions

Sexy Seductive Professional Nails

Advantages: Look realistic, Last for weeks
Disadvantages: Can be painful removing them

Do you long to have perfect nails? Or have you already got them? If you answer yes to the second question, then this op could still benefit you. If you answer yes to the first question, then read on, this will definately benefit you! Sorry guys, unless you are buying a present for someone female, this op will be of no use to you at all. I bite my nails. I have always done it, but lately I have been trying really hard to stop. I managed to stop biting my nails for a month, and they all looked lovely. One by one, they all snapped and broke and I couldn't keep my teeth away from the rough edges. I have used false nails, on and off, since I was about 17 years old. Usually I buy the cheap 99p ones, and they do the job. For once I decided to treat myself and buy a more expensive set. I bought an acrylic set, which are suppose to look ...

Review of Elegant Touch Acrylic Nail Kit

Rio UV Gel Nails Kit

Advantages: comes in one set
Disadvantages: takes a while

What an amazing piece of equipment this is, i like most people have short nails, i cant help it, i have tried getting help for it but to no avail, i bite my nails! I bought the Rio UV gel nails kit to try and help me stop with such a discusting habit but found myself just peeling off the nails after a few days anddoing the whole process over again. It takes a while to learn how to prepare your nails and apply the extension tips and smooth them in but once you get the hang of it its fairly easy. The only really hard bit is trying to do the hand you write with! The black light is also quite fun, when you've applied the gel to the nailsand put your hand under the lamp the white parts show up and it makes you look like you've got a radient tan (it did for me anyhow). This lamp comes with 100 nail tips, glue, gel, files, instruction video ...

Review of Rio UV Gel Nails Kit

Rio nails give good results

Advantages: Very clear user instructions, professional finish, adequate tools for the job (eg. good sanding blocks provided), long lasting strong finish
Disadvantages: Only natural tips provided, you have to get white tips separately if you want a French manicure effect, takes a long time to do (allow at least 2 hours) but worth the effort!

I bought this product a few weeks ago and have enjoyed it with very good results. The instruction manual describes what you need to do very well, and there are pictures to show you exactly what you need to do. I did not use the tips provided in the pack as I wanted white tips (not provided), but otherwise followed the instructions to the letter. The result was nails that looked really natural and have been strong enough to withstand the rigours of everyday life. The gel is odourless so has a distinct advantage over acrylics. Although the initial layout is quite expensive (I paid £49.50) there is a good supply of everything you need for fill-ins and maintenance. Worthwhile if you like doing your nails yourself, but want strong, professional results. Just remember to set aside plenty of time (2 1/2 hours is realistic). ...
