Skeptical, but Good Investment

I was skeptical when I saw these at first. I thought they were going to pop off after washing dishes or while I was washing my hair in the shower. These are NOT the press-on nails of the 90's! These are amazing!! I absolutely love them! They come with so many different sized nails, it was easy to find the perfect fit, and the glue dried SO super fast! As soon as the first nail was done, I was shocked! The glue was dry after a few seconds (but I left it under the light for the full minute) and it was on the nail so securely. I painted them with 2 coats of regular nail polish and 2 top coats of clear to make them extra shiny. They look and feel amazing, all for under HALF of what I would have spent on a full set at a nail salon! And these are better because they aren't as thick as acrylic nails!
Works Well

These work pretty well. A couple popped off after 2-3 days, but that's longer than they usually last when I have them professionally done (I think it's my small nails). The benefit to doing them myself is that I was able to fix them and keep wearing them.

If you are in between sizes always choose the bigger size and file to fit. If you choose the smaller size they are prone to pop right off.
Look amazing for 2 days

I have been applying the nail strips since they first released years ago and never had any issues with the nails lasting i did want a little more length so i decided to give these a try. I did all of the same prep work and double cured each nail after i finished applying the nails i was able to put one of the normal nail strips over the top because the colors in the gel extend range are a bit limited (especially for girls who love dark colors). This time i went festive with one of the christmas designs. The nails looked amazing but started coming off around day 2. I would like to mention that i am a stay at home mom and im not doing anything thats hard on hands or nails so they really should have lasted longer.
Unfortunately would definitely say not good😵💫

I have been using the nail strips for years and love them but my nail don’t grow well so I thought it would be fun to have a little more length and these looked promising. My first try with them was so disappointing.. they were easy to apply and felt pretty solid. I thought they were going to work out great! I filed them down pretty low because I just wanted a bit more length but didn’t want them super long.. when I got up the next morning I was missing both thumbs and a pinky.. I reapplied and hoped for the best but by the end of the second day three more had come off. I replaced them but they just weren’t staying on .. by the fourth day I had had it and took them off.. I read some of the advice on line to try to trouble shoot what the problem was and tried again.. I used less glue and didn’t press so hard when they were curing and they actually felt better and I was hopeful . Two day later one fell off when I was folding laundry... then two more when I got out of the shower. Ugh! I give up! I would never recommend these.. it was a waste of money and super disappointing.
So pretty!!!!

Not long lasting

Took a few tries to get the right amount of glue without over spillage or not enough to evenly stick without bubbles. But it’s easy once you get the hang of it. I have brittle nails from chemo years ago so I thought these would be a good open for having longer nails every once in a while. I don’t know if it’s user error or what, but they were weak and not long lasting at all. Lost 2 within 24 hours and had to redo them - one while putting on a backpack and one while cooking. The rest were loose or off within a week so I gave up. Will probably retry in a few weeks but so far I would say not worth the money.
Don’t stay on

I’ve been doing my nails for two years now. I love Dashing Diva products. Except this one. No matter what I do they are popping off within 24 hours. I just can’t get them to last.

I was so excited for this as I went from getting acrylics done every few weeks to using glaze. I gave these a shot because I love the glaze product and I miss my acrylics but these are not it!!! I prepped correctly and cured correctly, I’ve been applying gel and nails for years and these popped off in less than 12 hours. Not one but 3. No thanks.
Came off less than 24 hrs

At first I was ready to love this but then I tried them and they were just okay. The nails started to pop off less than 24 hours of wearing them. Not worth it in my opinion.
Easiest and most affordable nail solution

Gel extended starter kit is the best purchase I’ve made this year. This kit is saving me hundreds of dollars a month. The first time I applied, the nails a few fell off on the first day, but this was due to user error. I needed to ensure that there was enough glue on the nails and that there were no open spots. I did the dishes and water got under a few nails and they popped off a couple hours later. I actually reapplied the nails with polish already on them and they applied very easily. I have to get the hang of painting them, but these nails are the best purchase I’ve made.
Love but wish were shorter

I have extremely small nails. I did find that these rounded ones sit will on my nail bed, but they were extremely long for me . I prefer the rounded look to the square but I had to cut them down because they were to long for my liking.
light worked for one nail then stopped working

garbage product unfortunately.light worked for one nail then stopped working and in order to hold the nail on tight enough to not have glue spots is nearly impossible. I had to use another light from the glaze product line to try to do the rest of the nails and they all started popping off a day later. Stick with the glaze product. It works the best. My nails don't hold anything but I can keep the semi cured glaze stickers on my nails for 4-5 days.
Not the Best

I am always super eager to try new products. I had high hopes for these based on the reviews. I followed the instructions, applied, cured twice (to hopefully make sure they would stay) and was really pleased with the results. After putting these nails on, they seemed like they would last for awhile. 24 hours later, two fell off. I tested the rest of the nails, and they came off fairly easily. Totally bummed, because they looked really nice for the short amount of time they were on.
Total waste of money.

These are not comfortable, and definitely do not fit small nails. I had to file them to fit, there were air pockets all over underneath no matter what I did. I'm basically a pro at the diva glaze so I figured these would be great but they disappointed me so much.

Day 3 of having my Gel Xtends on. They feel sturdy and good... Definitely gives off a professional salon look. A great variety to choose from, so I'll definitely be thinking about my next set. I definitely felt the glue cure when I put each finger under the LED light. I think it cured it quite well. I put the Pink Flirtini gel strips on top and am loving these summer nails !
Ok

Pro: They're easy to put on and customize. The con is that they don't stay on long. I followed the directions exactly. Which are not much different from the glaze strips which I love and are long lasting.The first set I put on 1 came off the same day and I chalked it up to being new. The 2nd set I put on 4 came off within a few days. I work in an office so I'm not exactly hard on my hands.

I loved these! These were the first thing I tried from Dashing Diva and I was hooked. I was a little upset that these were too long to use the Glaze with but I used normal gel polish and they still turned out fine. I would love to see a short/medium almond shape come out!
