Nails: ABS Plastic
Prep Pad: Isopropyl Alcohol, Water
Glue: Polyurethane Acrylate, Isobornyl Acetate, Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate, Benzoyl Isopropanol, Dimethicone

How To Apply GelXtend
Step 1
PREP
Remove any polish before beginning nail prep.
Trim and file nails (white side of file).
Wash hands and use prep pad to clean and dehydrate nail beds.
Push back cuticles using wooden manicure stick.
Lightly buff nail beds (pink side of file).
Step 2
SIZE & APPLY
Select nail tips for each nail. If in between sizes, size down or file a larger nail tip to fit.
Evenly spread a thin layer of soft gel glue to the bottom half of the pre-buffed (matte) section of the nail tip.
Apply nail tip from cuticle line to free edge to spread glue evenly, without releasing just yet.
If glue feels hardened in the tube or will not come out, put the cap back on and place it in a bowl of warm water for 2-3 minutes, until glue softens to a gel-like consistency.*
*When exposed to cold temperatures during shipping, glue may harden. Warm water will soften it back to its original consistency.
PRO TIP: If the glue does not fill the entire nail or if air bubbles have occurred, remove nail tip, apply more glue, and readjust before curing.
PRO TIP: If too much glue is used and floods onto cuticles or skin, wipe off glue before curing and re-apply.
Step 3
CURE
Keep pressure on the nail tip & cure under the GelXtend LED lamp for 60 seconds.*
To keep the light on, ensure your finger stays in contact with the sensor.
*Lamp will automatically turn off after 60 seconds.
PRO TIP: For sheer color and design nails, cure 2x for 60 seconds. For darker ombrés and french tips, cure a second time upside down for 60 seconds to ensure the light reaches the glue.
PRO TIP: Rotate the lamp as needed for an easier application process and tightly fasten the cap for the glue to prevent from drying out.

I followed the instructions to the letter and usually love this company. I have much better luck with the light-cured gel strips. I applied these on Sunday evening and they looked great on for Monday at work. By Monday evening, one had popped off. I tried to reapply but since they had color on them at that point, I feel like the gel glue didn’t cure properly. I’d recommend for special occasions, but not if you hope they last for a week or two.

I’ve been using various Dashing Diva products for many years now and have always been a fan. I just finished my first set of gelXtend nails, and I am so pleased with this product. Of all the years that I’ve been doing my nails this product has to be the easiest application of any nail tips that I’ve used in the past. I am so pleased with this product and I will definitely be a returning customer!

The Dashing Diva Team - AshVerified Reviewer2 months agoRated 5 out of 5 starsSo glad I heard about these…
I can’t believe how easy these were to apply. The gel glue consistency stayed put with no bubbles. I did get a bit on the skin but it was super easy to clip off. Even the gel polish applied so evenly, great products.

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!
DDDashing Diva6 months agoThank you for your wonderful review, Katrina! We're thrilled to hear you're loving the Clear, Medium Round Kit and discovering just how far press-on nail technology has come. It's fantastic to know you're experiencing such great durability, quick application, and perfect sizing options - we think they're pretty spectacular too!

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.
DDDashing Diva7 months agoThank you for your feedback on our Clear, Medium Round Kit! We're glad to hear they're working well for you and that you appreciate the convenience of being able to fix them at home. While we're sorry to hear about a couple nails lifting after 2-3 days, it's great that you were able to reapply them easily. We truly appreciate your honest review and are happy you're finding value in doing your own nails!
