Dazzle Dry Mini Kit 4 Step System - Boss, a light and true neutral nude. Full coverage cream. (5 Piece Kit / 5 Manicures)

tl;dr - Amazing results! As advertised it dries super fast and super hard, looks professional, and lasts a LONG time. I'm throwing away all of my old nail polishes and only using Dazzle Dry from now on!I'm not one for manicures. I'm VERY hard on my hands, and have never had a manicure survive the first 24 hours without a gouge, scrape, chip, smear, or thumbprint no matter how hard I try to be careful, and then by one week they look like garbage and I remove what's left. BUT - I had a manicure on my last vacation and upgraded to Dazzle Dry. OMG! Just as the manicurist told me, it was dry in 5 minutes, super hard, and still looked just about perfect 3 weeks later. The only reason I removed it was because my nails had grown out so much that the gap between the still-perfect polish edge and my nail bed was huge and my nails were longer than I liked. It came off easily with acetone polish remover, no special extra treatment needed. The pedicure I had done at the same time, now 4 weeks ago, looks as good as it did on Day 1 - shiny, neat, no chips or peeling.Out of curiosity I looked to see if Dazzle Dry was available to buy and use at home, and found it here on Amazon. DON'T LET THE HIGH PRICE FOOL YOU! Even though the starter kit is small, you'll get your money's worth! Since the manicure will last you many weeks, you won't have to keep removing and re-applying. Be sure to watch the YouTube video for tips and tricks first. The entire process from start to finish took me 10-15 minutes, and that includes the 5 minutes for the top coat to dry. THAT'S IT! SO FAST! I gave myself a professional-looking manicure in 10-15 minutes, it was dry and rock-hard, and then I was able to go about a normal day. Laundry, cooking, dishes, knitting, typing, lab work, petting the cat, etc. without even trying to be careful - all without any chips, smears, gouges. It's really amazing!I'm so impressed that I might now be a manicure convert. I am looking at the color "flights" for more colors to try, and I plan on throwing away all of my old nail polishes. I'll never look back!

This system is amazing! It dries evenly and QUICKLY-under 5 min! It's easy to tell when to put the next stage on- it becomes matte. Durable for days: It lasts under the roughest conditions....doing the dishes over and over, cleaning the backyard etc.

Unlike the damage gel and powder do to your natural nail, dazzle dry does not damage natural nail and it last me two weeks without chipping. An added bonus is it drys in five minutes. I'm so happy I get a manicure that looks nice, lasts a long time, doesn't damage natural nail and drys quick. (I do not have my hands in water without rubber gloves and I have had a dazzle dry manicure last me three weeks.)Also, in the salon the price of dazzle dry manicure was too expensive for me, so I ordered the kit and I take it to the salon and pay for a regular manicure.

This particular color is like a sad “clay” and not attractive. I do not have the skill set to make my nails as neat as a professional but I expected that. The set is easy to use and went on smoothly. Will have to see how long it lasts.

I might as well have burned $35. I carefully followed directions included with the product, but on the second day after my manicure the polish began lifting off.I wanted a refund, but they aren't available for this product. I wrote to the seller explaining the issue, and I kid you not... They sent the following instruction manual for getting a "flawless manicure" Now, I don't know if all of the instructions will fit in this review, but I'm going to attach them so you can see for yourself what is expected. The message began with:Are you making sure to follow the proper application for a flawless manicure?Step #1 Nail Prep-Wash hands with soap and water to remove any contaminants.-Saturate 2 lint-free cotton pads (or gauze) well with Step #1 Nail Prep and scrub each nail (pay particular attention to the cuticle area, sidewalls and free edge), removing ALL remnants of oil, lotion, and other contaminants.-Use 1 lint-free pad per hand to avoid transfer of oils from one hand to the other, ensuring optimum cleanliness of the nail plate prior to polish application.-As you move on to the next nail, rotate your pad to find a clean spot to ensure you are not pushing around oil/ lotion.-Do not touch nails once they have been cleansed with the Nail Prep to avoid transfer of oil/lotion onto the nail plate.Step #2 Base Coat-Apply first layer of Base Coat, encapsulate the free edge and allow to dry matte.-Repeat the second layer of Base Coat, encapsulate the free edge and allow to dry matte.-Don’t apply Base Coat heavily as it can flood the side walls and come in contact with skin, which could lead to premature chipping.-Skip encapsulation of the free edge if nails are short.Step #3 Nail Lacquer-The key to applying the DD Lacquer is having more polish on your brush, using minimal pressure on your brush, working more with the tip of the brush, not fanning out the bristles (you are pressing too hard if the bristles are fanned out), and not over-stroking to avoid disrupting the previous layer.-Apply the first layer of Nail Lacquer using about a medium consistency, not too thin and not too thick and cap the free edge. Dip -the brush in the bottle for each nail and swipe off excess product using the inner neck of the bottle. Allow to dry matte prior to applying the second layer.-The second layer may be applied generously. Dip the brush in the bottle for each nail and swipe off excess product using the inner neck of the bottle.-Be mindful of not applying too heavily so that the Lacquer does not roll to one side or pool.-Encapsulate the free edge of each nail with the Lacquer and allow to dry matte.-If you get it on the skin, clean up with pure acetone and a detail brush as you go. Waiting until the end will make it more difficult to clean as it dries so quickly.-If nails are short, no need to encapsulate.Step #4 Top Coat-Generously float Top Coat by dipping the brush in the bottle for each nail and swiping off the excess product using the inner neck of the bottle. Use minimal pressure and work with the tip of the brush to glide over and burst any air bubbles that may have formed. Encapsulate the free edge of each nail, sealing in all the layers.-Wait 5 minutes and voila – Lacquer is hard set.-If nails are short, no need to encapsulate.-Do not use drying drops or sprays (drying drops and sprays are an added cost and do not help in drying the layers underneath any polish), or fans (could cause wrinkling) to accelerate dry time. Also avoid blowing on the nails (could make polish foggy).Please let us know if you need anything else. Have a great night!So....if you follow not only the included directions, but also the "extras" mentioned here, then perhaps your manicure will last more than 2 days.

The color needs too many coats for uniform color. Lasts a long time without chipping. Best I have used. Dries quickly. Sticky when bottle is about half full. Expensive for poor coverage in this color.

I have used this product at nail salons, as well as purchasing another time prior to this purchase. The product dries amazingly fast and is easy to use. My nails always have problems with polish chipping and peeling and this polish definitely gets me more time with without that. It is a little pricey but worth it.
