Glaze Extensions

How are these different from Glaze?

Both products are made with a soft gel formula that molds to the curve of your natural nail—except Glaze Extensions are pre-shaped and add length. After curing and sealing, they’re completely ready to wear.*

*No trimming or filing necessary, but you do need to finish with the anti-stick sealant.

Can I use my Glaze lamp to cure Glaze Extensions?

No—you’ll have to use either the Glaze Extensions LED Lamp or the One Gel LED Lamp to cure these. The Glaze Mini LED Lamp is not strong enough to fully cure Glaze Extensions, so please do not attempt!

Are these HEMA-free?

Yes—Glaze Extensions are perfectly safe for anyone with a gel allergy! 

Can I shorten or reshape the extensions?  

If you wish to re-shape or shorten Glaze Extensions, you may do so by filing AFTER curing. Do not trim with a clipper or scissor—this will lead to the nail cracking!

Can I use nail glue to adhere these?

Glaze Extensions already have a pre-applied adhesive, therefore they do not require any additional nail glue. For optimal results, please follow the original instructions and cure the strips under LED light, rather than using nail glue and letting nails air dry. Application methods are not interchangeable and will result in unsuccessful wear.

Why do the strips still feel soft and bendy after curing?

Some designs need a second cure to reach max strength. Gently press the edge of the nail tip or tap it against the lamp—if there’s a noticeable amount of give/flexibility, cure once more to increase hardness.

Are these safe for weak or damaged nails?

These are actually perfect for weak or damaged nails* when the correct prep and removal is followed. Glaze Extensions act as a layer of protection, allowing your natural nails the opportunity to uninterruptedly grow without breaking throughout wear. Use Magic Off+ to safely and gently remove Glaze Extensions without compromising the health of your nails. 

*If nails are in critical condition, please consult a healthcare professional prior to use. 

What are the biggest mistakes to avoid?

When selecting your sizes, always size down! The biggest culprit to nails prematurely lifting is selecting a size too large for your nail bed. Always lift the strip from the free-edge side (indicated by the ▼ above each strip), as minimizing contact with the adhesive will ensure optimal adhesion.

Also, be sure to apply the anti-stick sealant to avoid dust, hair, and anything else from sticking underneath your nail tips. 

Lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY, always store remaining strips in their container with the cover on. Exposing the strips to any light source can compromise future wear by hardening them prior to the next use.

    Feeling fancy!

    Applied for the holidays, and they look even better than I’d expected. Just as easy to put on as other Dashing Diva glaze products, but gives fun and natural looking extra length. Lost one nail after a couple of days, but replaced it in a snap. Experiencing a tiny bit of hair snagging, but no more than I do with other glaze products. I’ve scrounged in and out of my backpack, given scritchies to dogs, and taken multiple showers, and they still look so great. Will definitely purchase in the future! I received this set complimentary for testing and review purposes, but all opinions are my own.

    Pretty good, but not as good as I hoped

    I'm really glad I got to try these, but I probably won't purchase them unless I am desperate for a lengthening mani. For the most part, they seem like they are staying on pretty well except for one that I had to reapply after doing some light yard work. However, I am disappointed that I was unable to get them to fully stick around the edges. I use nail strips a lot so I am familiar with the prep needed, but I have very curved nails which is why I never use press-ons, they just dont form to my nail shape well enough, so I was really hoping these would do the trick but despite the slight moldability, they still didn't fully form to my nails. They are all slightly lifted at the cuticle, which catches my hair and I can see the gunk starting to pile up. So yeah, not terrible, but won't get again. Also, the sizing between the largest and smallest is pretty extreme, there is no way I am getting more than one use out of this set which feels like a huge waste! If the sizes was more similar to the glaze products, it would be much better cuz I can actually utilize all of the stickers, even though some are still on the small size, but its not as bad as these.

    Unfortunately Disappointed

    I was really excited to receive my free kit. It was very complete, as it even included the little UV lamp.

    However, I noticed right away that the strips felt really firm. It was impossible to get the strips to fit flush on the sides and tops .

    After application, the nails seemed very brittle; one cracked right away. They kept getting stuck in my hair. (Which drives me crazy.) One nail literally fell off within hours of application.

    I easily peeled the rest of them off the same day. :(

    I am wondering if these strips were exposed to too much heat during shipping or something.

    I love the original strips and use them all the time.

    I Tried to Wait Until These Started to Look Rough ...

    I wanted to wait until these started to look rough before I wrote this review, but it's been 2 1/2 weeks, and they're still going strong! And I mean STRONG! I have very thin, brittle nails, and the Glaze Extensions have given me new hope that I may be able to have long nails. The ends are very strong and thick, I love the squoval shape, they're easy to put on and cure nicely, and I've experienced very little hair catching with this set. I did have a couple fall off about 2 weeks in. I think because it's been so long that the glue was giving out. I just cleaned the nail and popped them back on with a little nail glue ... and the full set is still in action! I highly recommend this product and can't wait to try other colors.

    Wish They Were Better

    On first opening I was disappointed in the color, it seems very brown rather than pink. Product was very easy to apply and instructions were clear and easy to follow. Length and shape were perfect, no need to file. My disappointment was in the durability of the nails. On the first day one of the nails broke while grocery shopping. Ended up removing them after two days, removal process was easy and my natural nail has not been damaged from the application. These were advertised as being strong as builder gel, but as someone who has worked with it on multiple occasions, this is not true. LED lamp works great, easy to hold and maneuver when doing nails.
