20 Best Professional Acrylic Nail Kit (2024 Update)

This dipping system is a huge YES! it costs exactly the same amount as one professional dip manicure and if you are patient and willing to learn a new skill you will save yourself hundreds of dollars with this investment. Because I do have a track record of painting outside the lines with regular nail polish, I was nervous that this would prove disastrous in doing my own dip. However, the consistency of the liquid bonders etc. are very thin meaning they were incredible easy to control. My recommendation to anyone looking to start doing DIY dip nails is to also invest in a nail drill, and a cheap nail brush (that won’t loose its hairs) to brush access powders. I also purchased nail caps to help ease the process of removing my dip manicures, (I absolutely detest sticking my fingers in a bowl of acetone. I much prefer clamping the cotton to my nails). Finally, the best pro tip I can give is to not worry about going overboard when your painting the liquid steps onto your nails. Recalling how quickly the women at my salon painted on step 1, I attempted to create the thinnest layer I could on my first attempt of my first couple nails. That method proved to be a fail and the dip spread out unevenly across the nail and I had to start over again. On the rest of my hand I made sure to make sure I made a solid wet layer across the nail, and each time I pulled my perfectly coated finger out of the powder I wanted to scream with joy! While this product may look intimidating, it really is quiet easy. I should mention that you can also mix and Match whatever brands of powder you want to use with this system as well. I would recommend it to anyone who loves dip but runs on a tight budget. Attached is a photo of my 1st attempt with this system. Not too bad in my opinion 😁carina.m

I've never had my nails done at a salon, so I've never had any exposure to the process of gel, acrylic or dip nails. I've just always used plain ol' nail polish, but I'm very active and finally got fed up with even the "best" quality nail polishes chipping within 2 days of application. Enter: Dipwell. Compared to some other kits and brands I've seen, Dipwell is way more affordable. I can't speak to any quality differences among brands though since this is my first ever experience with dip powders. I had to do 2-3 full applications before I feel like I got a hang of the application techniques, so if you're used to getting dip nails done at the salon, this will likely be easier for you (assuming you pay attention to the process)! Even after the 2nd time and still looking a little sloppy in places, it still looked better than most regular nail polish applications. By my 3rd application, I was able to create cute ombre accent nails, so you can learn pretty quickly. One thing to note is that this can get MESSY (or maybe I'm still bad at this…), especially with all the filing and buffing residue. Clean-up is fairly easy, but as a total noob to acrylic systems of any kind, I didn't expect the amount of mess it can create. The instruction pamphlet is pretty clear, but I also watched lots of tutorial videos to get a more complete picture of the process. The colors are beautiful, but I wish there were better swatches and photos on hands on the website, because some colors are not well-represented by the single swatch on the website. Also, it would be great to see each color on different skin tones! Overall, the learning curve is short, the kit is easy to use, and I love that the powders are affordable. I would highly recommend!Sofia

This system is great and if you’re thorough and diligent with the instructions your manicure will look great and last. I bought this when there was not a build your own option, and was disappointed to find that the naturale colors included were not my style. The lighter color is filled with glitter/sparkles which surprised me- I avoided the glitter set because I don’t like glitter- and the darker color is sort of a deep pink. I bought a kit for my friend a couple months after my purchase and discovered the build your own kit which was such a great option and she was very happy. Bummed it wasn’t available when I bought mine. Pros: great kit with good instructions, online videos are a bonus, and cruelty free (which is why I bought this brand) Cons: the pre-selected color kits might disappoint, the nail files are not labeled/ there are no instructions for which nail file is which grit- you just have to guess.Jennice O.

This is the best acrylic powder ever. It's super easy to work with and beginner friendly. The consistency is everything. It's a little on the pricey side but well worth it. I would recommend this to anyone, whether they're a beginner or a professional nail tech. [brand:mia-secret]gabby.r

Finally took the step, I bought the big. Bottle. I kept running out so fSt an couldn't do my nails . Now, yah. I'm so happy I love having the big Bottle. I have a more sense of comfort having the big bottle. Can't wait to see how long it lasts. After I'm done, I will compare prices to see if it is cheaper buying the smaller bottle sooner, or having the larger bottle. Its already 2xs plus $10 the price. I will update ASAP when I run outpay-payz*

This product is good for beginners. It gets the job done. It isn’t the clearest acrylic I have used but it is good for encapsulating. Be careful with how you apply thought because you can creates bubbles. Make sure to just keep practicing and you will get it!nina.b

Save your money for a better product. nail tips are flimsy and will bend and tear easy. My daughter has had 2 break off in 2 days then i had one break off while filing my pinky nail. The plastic tips are so thin and weak. The brush it came with is permanently stuck together at the end and kinda thick to apply the acrylic to nails. Next time im just going to a beauty supply store and getting better quality products.Heidi

Ive have always used Kiss for my press on and glue on nails, i believe it is a very affordable quality brand but the acrylic kit. No. I bought this for homecoming so I wouldn't have to spend 40 for acrylics at the salon and at first it was going okay. But the brush included was horrible and I had to use one of my own paint brushes. The smell was so strong and lasted for days after i threw it away. I attempted a french tip set as that is my go to at the salon. My nails turned out okay, but after a few minutes the white tips started turning yellow so i removed them. I was not pleased with it but it is an okay product if you paint color on them.Haylee

First of all, do NOT buy this for state board. The nail liquid was confiscated due to the lack of foil seal on the bottle as it only had a plastic stopper. Second of all, this is VERY expensive for the quality. I bought 2, one to practice at home and the other for my state exam however again, the nail liquid was not up to standard for the test & didnt know until i got there. Doesn’t matter how exact your ratio is, or how big of a bead, the liquid and powder still create a very thin product. The tacky layer is also a pain to remove compared to other odorless kits. It seems like it created a very thick tacky layer so I was buffing forever. The overall appearance isnt bad but this was a huge waste of money.Sarah G.

I must say that this could have been much better. The pros of this acrylic is that the company provides you with an at home kit to learn to do acrylic nails. The cons of this product is that you are likely to fail and think that you did something wrong. The acrylic dries way too fast leaving the bead you applied dried on the nail like 3D nail art. The new Kiss acrylic kit has a new bubble free formula for $8 that is 10X better than this and this product costs almost $30 I have a video on my YouTube channel using the nail dehydrator and the nail primer. Those worked perfectly. I had to rip my nails off (NOT RECOMMENDED) Beauty Secrets really needs to do better in the acrylic powder and liquid department.queen.m

Well if I’m being honest I was excited to try this product. How ever upon using it the acrylic no matter how little liquid you used was beyond watery and did not want to form very easily. Once they dried they were also very soft and almost tacky/sticky feeling. It never fully hardens.Barbara S.

Do you like this color?? I love it! It's an eggshell…looks like I got them professionally done. I always get compliments on my nails. Today I'm wearing short nails..in this eggshell/off white color. They are thick, not thin..so they last longer. I glue mine on and always keep a extra glue in my purse. I think these nails are so cute!! Love these!!!darlene.s

Great product for the money! I have tried other Kiss (as well as other brand) nail products before, and these are the best so far. They really are thicker, more like a salon acrylic. They have stayed secure and lasted longer so far as well. I planned to paint them, but they looked fine natural! As others have mentioned, in order to not get glue bubbles, you have to apply the glue to BOTH your real nail and the fake nail. I actually have gotten many compliments on these. My only complaint is that I wish the glue was easier to get out of the tube, but it's a $5ish product, and gets the job done!laurica

Great brand! Love their products! The protein bond is amazing cant rave it enough . I use this product for my clients who need a repair for their nails to grow out and it stays on !thu.s

This kit is really great! You get everything you need to get started doing acrylic. I actually really like the brush that came inside of it too! I find that this kit is really the way to go when trying their products because you really get a bit of everything! I like that they don’t include filler products that you won’t use….everything in the kit is important and will be used! I love the gel top coat too!meagan.h

I love my young nail kit. I started doing my own nails during the pandemic. It is a great product for beginners who are just starting to do nails. Even though the kit provides you with so much. I wish it provided a better acrylic brush. Maybe it me but mine didn’t last long and I had to replace it after a while.diva.e

Everything you will ever need in a nail kit. There literally is nothing extra you need! It is very beginner friendly. The acrylic powders apply like a dream. They are so creamy and so easy to work with. I 1000000000000% recommend this kit for anyone who wants to do nails at home.kitty.c

I had two missing items but they sending right out I love that everything fit the description I cant wait to use it on my client I will be purchasing againtravgr94

I love my new bundle and the dapper dish is fantastic. Will be posting pictures of my nails very soon. Love all these products.Theresa J.

It was well worth it getting it. I was excited when opening it. The products are amazing and my nails lasted long with them on. I do recommend getting this product.Savanah O.

Me gustaría probarlo ya que voy empezando a hacer unas y se me hace súper padre el quit ya que trae demasiadas cosas que necesito y se miran muy lindos y la presentación es inigualable me gustó mucho la variedad de colores que traerosangela.g

I began starting to use my nails with this kit. it’s so good for beginners! i practice a lot it comes with everything you need with!diana.m

I wore these Out for a weekend and got so many compliments! These were so easy to put on, really liked that it came with so many different sizes , only had to shape one nail on each hand. This kit came with glue and the glue had great staying power. Definitely want to try these in some other colors for my next outing.Candice

I really liked them but you sale them for almost $9.00 and the next day I went to dollar general and they had the exact same package for $2.75. So I bought an extra package there. With times so tough and everything you all price gouge on freaking fake nails?Anita

I got this as a gift. And they look quite close to salon one. I did had some that did not matched the shape of my nail. just a couple tho. It does come with a glue too. I checked the prices and for under $10 you can get nice looking nails.iryna

Amazing!! Love this product. I have enjoyed doing my own nails and this kit is an amazing kit for people for a new startmember-e272a

Super easy to use, affordable and pretty once you’re finished. Perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to go to a salon to get their nails done.kailee.j

I always get this kit and it’s great! I have to order it everytime because it’s always sold out at Sally’s. This last one I ordered the glue was dried out 😣 I should of returned it but I needed to get my nails done so I didn’t bother:( I really like the glue in the kit so that was a bummer it was dried up:(Dayna T.

This is a good product for beginners like myself. When this Coronavirus pandemic began, like a lot of others my current acrylic manicure (done in a nail salon) was desperately needing a refill. When those nails fell off I decided to purchase this product and give it a try. The amount of each product in this kit varies and in my opinion is a tad disproportionate. You get plenty of acrylic powder, but not as much liquid monomer. The acrylic powder is okay but I could definitely tell the quality wasn’t as good as the normal acrylic I get from the nail salon. I did the first set and it actually wasn’t terrible. I did have to do a lot of filing (file is included but it any amazing quality) to get the acrylic even. Also I was disappointed that it didn’t come with a small container to put the actual liquid monomer in. I used a smaller sized measuring cup. I also was very disappointed that when I was done and put the containers back inside the packaged kit, a couple of days later I realized the liquid monomer spilled and/or evaporated and I know for a fact I closed it shut. Made me think about how it may have leaked or didn’t have correct sealing. I’ve ordered a better version of this kit (around 20.00) off of Kiss’ website and will review that product as well. P.S. the liquid monomer is missing in the picture because I had to throw it away due to leaking into the packaging.shelbi.c

Nice, very affordable nail kit. It’s beginner friendly the directions are simple, easy to follow. Outside of glueing on nails tips, I had no prior experience with acrylics (unless done by a professional). It works great my nails lasted almost 3 weeks. The downside is the smell, of course. It’s pretty strong, gives me a headache. The only thing I don’t care for is the brush, the bristles shed it’s hard to clean. Once you use this kit twice, you may as well toss it buy another one (or buy a sustainable, durable brush). The kit is around $9-$12 definitely worth trying out if you’re interested in acrylics. It doesn’t have a nail primer, but it’s still strong lasts without it. It’s a another quality product from Kiss.aaliyah.z

I've been using these for a little while now, and I have definitely noticed some new things after using them First off, I would like to say that this concept is AMAZING. I love the fact you can express your creativity with these, and can customize your nails however you'd like. There are an array of sizes, and comes with everything you need. The brush isn't the best, but for the price not horrible. The instructions are easy to understand, and just from going to a nail salon you can comprehend what your supposed to do Now, after applying these and wearing them. I noticed a few (major) flaws. First, I must say not being a professional makes it HARD to make the nail shapes even. I spent more time on the shaping then the rest! Also, the nails fell off within 3 days. This was the most disappointing for me. Because in my head, I know if I pay a tad over double, I can get professional acrylics done that will last for 2 weeks. Also, THE SMELL. It truly smells like a nail salon. Which, smells up the whole house. Literally. I highly recommend doing this either outside, or in a bathroom where there is a fan. For the price, not bad. But I don't think I'd recommend it to anyone except for people who are more doing it just to try out, not looking for an alternative to professional onesKaylee

This wonderful manicure/pedicure set was well thought-out to include just about everything you might need. It comes with a cloth zippered case and has form fitting places in the form of a plastic insert which holds the device and all of the accessories neatly. The plastic insert can be removed if you prefer. The case retains its shape if you remove the insert. The inside lid of the case has a mesh pocket where you can keep the power cord and the manual. The case does not have a handle. In the case: Power cord with a micro USB end to charge up the device, Dust shield, 10 attachments, and a User Guide. No plug for the cord. The attachments are: Sapphire cone – to remove dry skin and calluses from feet and manicures the toenails. Coarse Sapphire wheel – Files nails quickly Fine Sapphire wheel – Files nails. Finer than the coarse wheel to file more gently and slowly Felt cone – For buffing and polishing Cylindrical Grinder – Grinds and smooths toenails Pointed Grinder – Removes ingrown toenails. Small for precise use. Round Sapphire Grinder – Removes corns. Use carefully. Needle-shaped Cutter – Precision tool. Used on ingrown nails or parts of dead nails. Fine Sapphire callus file – Removes calluses on the soles and heel of the feet. Crystal callus file – Use on thick, hard skin or large calluses on soles or heel. Charge up your device for about 3 hours before your first use and the charge should last about 2 hours according to the manual. You have to have your device turned off to charge it. It will flash red and green if it isn’t. It will flash with 3 blue lights if everything is OK. When the 3 blue lights are solid, it is charged. The power button on the device has 3 positions. Up, Middle, and Down. Down turns the attachment counter-clockwise and you will see a red light. Up turns the attachment clockwise and you will see a green light. The middle position is off. I thought I would not need to change the device from clockwise to counterclockwise and back again, but I found myself changing it while I was working to make it easier, so I see why this feature was included. The plus and minus buttons on the device control the speed. There are 3 speed settings. The instructions say to always start at the lowest speed and only increase the speed if needed. I never used it any faster. I thought the slowest setting was more than adequate. There is an automatic switch-off after 20 minutes. I like that the device is cordless, because I was holding it at all sorts of different angles to do my pedicure. Nail dust was flying everywhere so I attached the Dust Shield to keep it from flying up in my face. It worked great for that. It doesn’t catch the dust. It just protects it from getting it in your eyes or accidentally breathing it in. There is an LED light. If you use one of the larger attachments, it will block the light from shining where you are working. Also it was too difficult to try to always keep the light on the area I was working. I did use it though. I would stop for a second and shine the light on the spot to better see how it was looking. My First Pedicure with the Beurer: I started out using the coarse sapphire wheel on my toenails. That quickly got them filed down. I switched to the Fine Sapphire wheel to smooth the edge and “fine tune" my nail filing. Next, I used the Sapphire cone to remove my cuticles from my toenails and to decrease some of the slight thickness of the nails on my great toes. Then I switched to the Pointed Grinder to get the cuticles at the corners and to fine tune any cuticles that I had missed, as well as getting the corners of my great toe nails. I followed that up with the Felt cone to buff my toenails. I used both the Fine Sapphire Callus file and the Sapphire Cone on calluses and dry skin on my feet. I really loved the sapphire cone and how it made my rough skin feel baby smooth. I used the Sapphire Cone mostly for that. You do not have to use a lot of pressure for the attachments to work. In fact, very little pressure will be much safer while providing excellent results. Also use the attachments in circular movements, except when shortening the nails. At first, I was trying to keep my feet positioned over a small waste basket, but dust was flying everywhere, so I ended up sitting on a bath mat and letting the dust fall onto the mat, which is easily washable, or can be vacuumed. Before retirement, I was an RN and often took care of diabetics, including their foot nail care. I would have loved to have had this tool. I feel with proper use (not too much pressure and using circular motions) it would be very suitable for them with minimal risk. When I was working, only an RN was allowed to do the nail care on a diabetic’s feet. The reason for this was because of the risk of injury using the sharp cutting tools that were the only things available at the time. I mention this only to emphasize the importance of being extraordinarily careful when doing pedicure care on diabetics. I really MarilynB

Save time & money while keeping your nails neatly trimmed. The Beurer Nail Pro Premium electric manicure/pedicure set is one of those devices that you don’t realize you need, or will even use until you get it and use it. For years I have been using nail clippers and a metal or cardboard nail file to trim my fingernails and toenails. It all seemed to be suffice and simple enough in which I saw no need to have a professional manicure or pedicure. But after using the Beurer Electric Manicure and Pedicure set, I realize that this is a much more simpler and more effective way to trim my nails. Often times I have hang and or uneven nails that catch on to my clothes and other items and can cause great pain if snagged in the wrong way; but now I can quickly smooth my nails and keep them trimmed with very little effort. This device is cordless, runs on an included reachable battery, and easy to use. It takes about three hours to charge and can run for about two hours before a new charge is needed. The designed shape makes it easy to grip and hold in one hand and difficult to drop. It comes with a lot of attachments that can be effectively used on your nails to keep them looking neatly trimmed. It also has a movable plastic guard to prevent shaved skin and nails from popping in your eyes or mouth when in use. It has an onboard light that directly illuminates the area where you are using it. It comes with everything you need to take good care of your finger and toe nails. It is fast and powerful, and allows for speed adjustments by simply touching the plus or minus button. It moves in either direction, in which you control utilizing the onboard switch. It has a color coded LED display which is a helpful in displaying activity during use. It is painless and leaves your nails looking smooth and well manicured. When not in use, you can store it in the provided carrying case so that everything is neatly kept together. The Beurer Nail Pro Premium electric nail care set allows you to take excellent care of your nails at a fraction of the cost. In most instances, using this once or twice will pay for itself, if you already have your nails done professionally.BiggVikk

I love this product! I had to say goodbye to the nail salon during the past 18 months due to the pandemic, and I was in dire need of a new pedicure set. I used to own an electric nail care set and it was a good one that lasted for several years, but since it was powered by electricity, I always had to be tethered to the electrical outlet which was not always convenient. This one is rechargeable and has many other nice features as well. One of the overall design features that I like the best is that the Nail Pro Premium by beurer of Germany comes in a nice zip case along with everything you need to groom your nails, whether you need a manicure or a pedicure. The product is of a high-quality design and comes with 10 different sapphire and felt attachments that seem to meet all needs for nail care of manicuring or pedicures. It comes with a dust shield that fits neatly over any of the attachments and has an LED light that illuminates during use. The Nail Pro Premium charges easily with a micro-USB cable and needs to be charged for three (3) hours before the first use. It seems to hold that charge quite well and last up to about two (2) hours of use for each three (3) hours of charge. There is a speed control of three (3) speeds, and a control to make the attachments rotate in either direction. The unit is ergonomic and fits well in the hand which makes it easier to control and do detail work. The cordless operation also allows for more movement of use while using the device for either a manicure or a pedicure. I love how it works so well and then neatly packs back into its zip case where it is all contained for the next use. It only weighs 4.69 ounces so it can easily be packed in your travel case for an extended trip. The Nail Pro Premium comes with a limited lifetime warranty for the original owner of the product. I haven’t seen another this neatly designed or organized that has the power of this particular product. I definitely recommend it if you need a nail care system. I am very pleased with this one.SwigglesMilam

Easy to follow instructions abs lasts long although colour doesnt come off paint brush and the solution provided doesnt remove it. Other than that great product.yonisharab_0
