Reviews

The real MVP of this system!

"Ok you have to do the base coat, and apply it correctly. Heat it up till it’s clear and the viscosity is nice and thin. Then do two coats spaced out where it’s fully dry and sort of martinis in between. Cost the “free edge” like the directions say by wrapping g a teeny bit in the end of you nail-trust me—polishes won’t budge this way. And make sure your nail is super clean before you apply. I like to purchase the little lint free cotton squares to apply the Nail Prep step right before. The base coat allows your nail E’s to expand in water/heat/cold etc and is flexible so it doesn’t get micro cracks which cause chips! GENIUS."

— Sunya H. (5/5)

Can’t beat this system!

"I am literally obsessed with this nail system. Do you like having your nails done but hate the damage done by salons? Have you tried countless semi cured gel stick ons and other less damaging options to no avail? Look no further! Dazzle dry looks great, lasts (for me) about 2 weeks, is simple to remove without acetone, and quick to apply! I can’t wait to get more colors. Dazzle dry is the end all be all for me. I have applied this system twice. The only “negative” I’ve noticed is that after a few days/week, my nail tips will start to show. I’m thinking this may be due to an application error/something I’m doing wrong. All in all, it doesn’t bother me, it’s just something I’ve noticed."

Love it

"A must in the system. Drys really fast and does the job"

— Anna T. (5/5)

Dazzle Dry is totally worth it!

"Dazzle dry is totally worth it! This nail polish last longer than any nail polish I have ever used (which is a lot including professional manicures). Also it drys super fast. So fast before you have a chance to mess up your manicure by doing something too soon."

— Lisa O. (5/5)

The Best Base Coat

"One of the best base coats I've used. The drying was very quick so I could move onto the next step quicker than any other product I've tried. Dd products after one use of base coat, color, and top coat had my nails stronger and not cracking/breaking even under the nail polish like they were doing. Definitely one product I will be sticking by and one brand I'm recommending to everyone I know."

— Bernadette L. (5/5)

Must have!

"I’ve tried dazzle dry a few times when I get my nails done at the salon. Great alternative to gel! I love being able to remove it with regular remover and it honestly lasts longer than most gel manicures I’ve had without the damaging effects! Bottle arrived cloudy/gel-like but placing in hot water as recommended in the directions cleared it right up! Totally worth the investment!!!!"

— Stephanie W. (5/5)

In love

"I am in love with this product and will never go back to toxic polish again. It stays on for weeks and when I take it off it doesn't leave my nails looking destroyed."

— Cindi L. (5/5)

Base coat

"I always do two coats of the base, it seems to give longer life to my manicure. Works fine!"

— Lisa K. (5/5)

Dazzle dry is the best!

"I can’t believe there is actually a nail polish that looks good, is easy to apply, and lasts for weeks. I am a DD customer for life!!"

— Hillary S. (5/5)

Something was wrong with the

"Something was wrong with the batch you sent. Did them theee times and they peeled the very next day all theee times. I did them the same way as always which have lasted before used the prep and all."

Hi there, thank you so much for your question! We offer professional sizes for those that are registered for Dazzle Dry Pro. We have provided the link to the wholesale website: https://pro.dazzledry.com/account/login?checkout_url=/ We appreciate your business!
I just opened up a brand new base coat. When I applied it, and painted the nail with it, as I lifted the brush off the nail, the polish formed a string. This happened with each nail. It is a brand new bottle. What should I do?
