    Small bottles

    I purchased a few of these from shoppers drug mart. They have the cutest shades, and a fairly large variety. They are a gel polish, so you will need a lamp in order to cure them onto the nails. They last a few days, around a week if applied correctly. The biggest complaint I do have however is with the size of the product. The bottles are significantly smaller than other competitive brands. Due to this, it is hard to justify purchasing this product instead of another if a similar shade exists. Price is comparable to other brands as well.

    These are cute bottles with a huge colour selection and also only $10 which is the cheapest I've seen "non-aesthetic" brand gels. I was an aesthetician and worked with higher-end nail products and I don't feel there is anything wrong with this gel. I wouldn't call it a gel though, it reminds me more of a Shellac-type.
    It is very easy to apply and the consistency is just like a thick polish that doesn't clump, you just brush it on your nails the same way you would your polish except you cure it under your LED lamp. You do need to make sure that you apply an even amount of product onto your nail just because you may get bumps and waves in your application if you put too much.
    As long as you prep your nail properly, avoid your cuticles/side walls and cure in the lamp for the appropriate amount of time then you should be able to get about a week. Mine usually last anywhere between 5-8 days, depending on how rough I am with my nails. My biggest problem was them fading/chipping on the tips from typing. The shine doesn't last much longer, when they begin falling off is also when they begin looking dull - you can always go over them with a top coat again to make them look better.
    Some negatives - The scent is very strong and I will sometimes get a headache if I am working with it for too long. The bottles also leak very easily, it never matters how hard/tight I put on the caps, they always seem to spill and it gets so sticky and is very hard to get off.
