Acrylic Nail Kit: 1/2 oz liquid monomer, 1/2 oz clear acrylic powder, ultra quick nail glue, 1/2 oz ultra gloss top coat, fancy 20 nail tips, 1/2 oz primer, speedy zebra straight nail file 100/100, #8 nail brush and emery block

The reason why I decided to purchase the mia secret kit is because I was using the kiss brand over the counter kit and I had a major issue with lifting and subsequently nail fungus. I was trying to be cheap and just purchased the drug store kit without any primers. It didn't work so well. So I decided to upgrade and I bought this kit along with the mia secret nail prep. I got a tell you I love it. The kit came exactly as described. Yes the bag is cheap but so what. It's just a bag. I read in other reviews that their glue was all dried out. My glue was just fine. You may read in other reviews that the quantity is too small. I must admit I do have quiet a bit of nail experience so for me the quantity was more than sufficient. If you are a first time, home nail doer, and you are not familiar with portion control of the product (brand doesn't matter) then you may find you will have a bit of waste at your product won't last as long. But just to give you an idea of the quantity, when I received my product I was able to do a full set overlay on my natural nails, which are usually kept at medium length. After the overlay I have been giving my self a fill every 2 1/2 weeks. With this kit I have been able to do 1 full set and 4 fill ins and I am just now at the point where I need more monomer (which can be purchased separately) I still have plenty of everything else. I do have to admit that in the past 2 months I have had 5 nails lift on me near the cuticle (lots of house cleaning without wearing gloves and a few trips to the beach) but I just glued the edges down and because I used the nail prep, no fungus growth after gluing them down. So I'm not going to complain. Overall I am very pleased with the product. Where else can you get a full set of nails and 4 fills for less than $30 total? I would definitely recommend this product.

If you are new or have only a little experience doing your own nails at home, this kit has everything you need in the perfect size to see if doing your own nails at home is for you! Amazing price and fast shipping too! No need to commit to larger amounts of product in case you find out doing your own nails isn’t “your thing.” If you do a decent job on your nails the first time (first of all, congratulations!), you will have enough for at least one full set and one fill, maybe 2 fills. And in my past experience with other kits or products, this, by far, adheres the best and gives me the professional look and feel I’m going for. The only 2 things I would recommend adding (buying separately) is a dapen dish (for the monomer) and nail dehydrator liquid to make sure your nails are extra dry for the primer. And have a shot glass handy with pure acetone in it just in case you get any acrylic hardened in your brush. Over time, you will need to “add” to this kit by replacing products (i.e. liquid monomer, tips, powder, etc) but the initial kit is good enough to train yourself to do your own nails. I would recommend a different (better) brush once you get into doing your nails more. Make the investment, it will help improve your results and help you be better at it. Also, BIG recommendation, watch TONS of actual professional nail tech videos online first. Look for videos about technique, not art. It will help you get closer to the correct way so you don’t end up wasting product, not having enough or spending half a day filing. Read the directions that are included. And Use in a well ventilated area!

Arrived quick, with everything BUT two other acrylic powders. (One answer claims it came with three acrylic powders, a Pink, Clear, and white? Mine came with only clear, which is no big deal since I keep my nails painted anyway most of the time!) The acrylic is SOLID. This is my first experience doing it, and holy hell. (Read below!) One star deducted because the provided tips are pretty terrible. I did four fingers (two on each hand) as a practice, and when I was doing the opposite, one of the tips SNAPPED, which resulted in my having to take them all off. I don't even know HOW it broke because I was careful not to run into anything with my fingers. I used the whole soaking them for 30 minutes in Acetone while wrapped in foil, and let me just say. Maybe it was something correct I did or something but the acrylic would NOT come off. Which isn't a bad thing, UNLESS one of your nails snaps off and you don't have any extras so you have to forfeit the entire operation! I should have known better to do it before I got extra tips (some on the way but I'm impatient!), but I'm glad that now I know the acrylic and other provided items are very nice; tips aside, which I would just say to toss all together! A quick note on the Monomer, it doesn't smell ANY worse than your average nail salon. After about 20 minutes you won't smell it anymore. EVERYONE ELSE will smell it, and it will smell like a nail salon, but after 20 minutes or so you get used to it again, so be sure to do this outside or next to a window or even in a bathroom that has an exhaust fan (as to if it would work I have yet to test, but I'm assuming it would!).

I love it. I have never done this before, this was my first time doing acrylic myself. The glue works just fine, in the instructions it says to hold for 10 seconds I found it dries faster than the 10 seconds. This is a very high quality acrylic powder so it works really fast it even says that in the description because of that it takes minimal filing which is really amazing for me I didn't even have to use my Rotary as much, I used the hand filer more. I did not use the brush that came with due to some of the reviews saying to get a different brush so I did the 10# Kolinsky brush and because this powder is fast it has Superior adhesion, self-leveling polymer that requires minimum filing the formula is Clarity and strength, so the brush got hard quickly so just be sure to keep it wet as I researched what to do when that happens. I also use the high gloss top coat that it came with, on one hand and two different top coats on the other hand and found that the one that came with was better definitely good quality, everything seemed to work extremely well. Definitely worth trying and definitely worth the money. I would recommend this to my friends I'm even going to do my friend's nails.

the overall product worked okay, although doesnt stick to the nail as well as it should. okay for beginners trying to learn how to do their nails but not professional grade product. kit also only comes with enough nail tips for two sets and only comes with white tips which isnt good for natural looking nails. the brush that came with it was full of glue even after washing it and made it hard to smooth the acrylic causing scratcy marks in the nail. nail glue did not work and i had to resort to another glue because it would not dry and caused the nail tips to fall off in a stringy goop. overall was easier to use than some drug store kits but still just doesnt bond to the nail as it should

This is my first acrylic nail kit and I'm so glad I chose this one! It has everything you need all in one convient kit. It makes it easy and simple to start out. There's enough to do about 2 full sets but then the monomer runs out. There's still plenty of the other products though. I was surprised to see that it came with the nail prep solution even though it wasn't listed as one of the items included. If I could afford her large set I totally would buy it! Very beginner friendly. The brush isn't the greatest but it works and there are only 20 false nail tips included, 2 of each size so you can do a full set and have enough monomer left to fill them once or twice. This is a great starter kit! It gave me a chance to try my hand at doing acrylic nails without spending a ton of money. The only thing this kit is missing is a dappen dish to put the monomer in.

This is a nice little kit for beginners as well as more experienced nail artists. I got this kit because I misplaced some of my items including my brush and needed something quick. I was a little unsure about purchasing due to some of the negative reviews but I decided to take a chance. My kit arrived on time and complete. It was exactly as described. Everything was new and packed well. Product was easy to work with. I’ve had my set on for two weeks although I have to say I didn’t use the tips. I used nail forms that I purchased separately. The brush is a basic beginner brush and though it’s a little on the cheap side it was still very easy to work with. I had no problems with it and it’s still in great shape. Just make sure to take good care of your brush and that you are constantly cleaning and wiping it as you do you nails so you don’t get any acrylic stuck to it. Also prep it with monomer before you use it especially the first time because these brushes always come with a hard layer to protect them. Just dip it and wipe it until that layer is gone and the bristles are more manageable. It would definitely recommend this kit.

I am fairly new to doing my own acrylics. I have tried the dip powder and then the acrylic set similar to this one both by Kiss before trying this kit. I have also tried one other kit that was more of a generic brand here on amazon. This one is my favorite. The brush is meh, it's not great, that is one area where kiss nailed it. The file is great, the acrylic has lasted me over 2 weeks when I don't fill and then it still took some time to work the nails off. Other brands, the nails usually start popping off in about a week and a lot of time they aren't safely able to make it to the fill stage without risk of fungus because they start lifting in areas so much sooner than the Mia Secret. The Mia Secret liquid monomer is not my absolute favorite (the powder is what is amazing) but still good. It is just a little less beginner friendly than some other brands. Not bad, just takes a smidge more finesse to really get that perfect bead consistency but after a few trials you will get it. Considering the price, it is worth it to get yourself a couple brushes you can use once this one goes caput. Highly recommend

Haven’t used it yet but when I opened it everything came as described. I’m really loving the emery board. Can’t wait to use it this weekend :)

Came with everything needed except curved nail clippers and brush cleaner but managed without them. You will need more nail tips long term.

During the beginning of covid this set was $80. I feel ripped off now that its $60 but it’s not a bad set. I just now started to use it a year later and I’m not mad at the results. The picture I’ve attached is of my first ever set I did on myself :)

This package had taken a while to get here and when it did I could smell leaked out product from out side the box. When I opened it the lid of the dehydrator was off completely and the product had gone everywhere.

Brush is too large for beginners, and clumped so badly that I actually had to cut it out even after cleaning. Also found a bit more monomer would be handy...other than that, good products. Used it on my big toe, which had been broken down the middle and thus presented a challenge to hide especially during summer lol...worked great, no stinging (acid burn), and easy to apply.
