Acrylic Nail Kit for Beginners, Home Practice Set

I purchased the SAVILAND Gel Nail Kit in the Short Square Nails during Amazon’s Prime Days in July 2025. All I can say is I am in love!! I have always loved having long nails as my natural nails are just ick. I had transitioned from acrylic nails to gel nails in the last year to hopefully help with the health of my nails. But the cost of going to the salon every 2-3 weeks was quickly exceeding my budget as the cost continued to climb and climb. I stopped going to the salon about 4 months prior but was really missing my long nails. Then I found this kit and for the price during Prime Days I thought I’d give it a try. A whole gel nail kit, PLUS a gel polish kit and the nail prep kit, was less than the cost of one trip to the salon. Using it just one time was going to pay for itself. So I thought ‘what the heck! I’ll give it a try!’ After completing my first set, I was hooked! The gel nail kit comes with everything you need to DIY. The instructions are clearly written and easy to understand and follow. The nail tips (which are full coverage!) are of good quality, and there is a large variety of sizes making it easy to find the right fit for each nail. The 4-in-1 brush-on gel is easy to use and cures quickly with the included light. The included nail drill is light in weight and fits in my hand easily - not bulky or heavy. The speed of the nail drill is easy to adjust and it has both a “forward” and “reverse” direction which is also easily adjusted. After reading many reviews, I did also purchase the nail prep kit (dehydrator and ph bond) to ensure proper adhesion. Like any new skill, it does take practice, but I have now done three sets, NONE of which have chipped, cracked or popped off. With each new set, the process gets easier and easier and I have been able to improve my technique and speed. I have received MULTIPLE compliments on my nails and everyone I’ve told that they were DIY has said they are definitely salon quality. So much so, my daughter and her friend have begged me to do theirs! I’ve enjoyed doing my own nails so much, I have expanded my personal kit to include Saviland’s Pro Salon 2-in-1 LED UV Lamp, Metallic Paint Markers, and Latex Tape (GAME CHANGER!!!). I recently purchased the SSProRemoval X fast gel nail polish remover but have not yet had the opportunity to try it. I can’t say enough good things about this gel nail kit or the Saviland brand. I doubt I ever return to a salon now that I can do these myself.

I bought this as my own DIY nail patch kit and I think it is absolutely mandatory for anyone who periodically made chip or Tara nail and doesn't want it to rip down below the quick. This helps patch it and then grow out to a length where you can properly do your manicure without pain.

Amazing! Just what I needed, they’re perfect!

This wasn’t a bad nail kit at all. It came with a lot of useful pieces, and I still have some of the tools and nail tips left, which says a lot. The almond tips were easy to work with and gave a nice shape, and the kit overall was good for at-home sets. The drill and lamp did what they were supposed to do, especially for beginners or casual use. It’s not professional-salon level, but for the price and what’s included, it’s a solid kit to practice, learn, and do your own nails at home.

i purchased this for my wife and she seems satisfied

Good to get started with acrylic at home to see how to do it without spending much money. But as someone who paints and understands the quality of your medium matters this is very low quality and does not flow easily despite trying different wetness levels on brush. Brush is also too big for normal nails. Maybe good for super long nails. Fun to try and will be looking into better quality powder to try next. Great for just practicing at cheap price but don’t expect salon quality nails.

This product was a big step up from the wayi brand I got. I did buy a good separate brush and was able to do a full set. I did not try the brush in this set yet but looks like a decent starter brush. It takes a while to get the powder to monomer ratio but after that it’s simple. Just take your time learning before doing a nail. I used a form paper.

I bought the Gel-X kit with square nails. The kit worked good. They were not too hard to put on. It took me about a hour from start to finish. They lasted a week. Then, 2 fell off on my dominant hand. I’m hard on my nails as I’m an elementary school teacher. Maybe they’d last longer for someone else. They looked professional. I soaked them off in acetone, took 20 minutes or so.

Decent acrylic set, glows really nice, ok to work with young nails monomer, great for beginners recommend this kit

Great price and it works well 👌

This is a great set of nail prep when doing my poly gel nails. Nice large bottle of product. Works well to prep my nails so my poly gel set last longer! I definitely recommend!

Great slip solution, does what it’s supposed to do, I usually use modelones brand but they were sold out so I ordered this one and it works just the same

Very easy to use, but does have an odour! I purchased the other recommendation and this one takes the cake by far.
