As a DIY nail enthusiast who does her nails at home practically every week, I've tried TONS of nail extension options. Let me tell you, Beetles has done it again with the Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips and has completely revolutionized my at-home nail game!First off, these tips are incredibly sturdy. Unlike other brands that crack or bend the moment you apply pressure, these Beetles tips maintain their shape even when I'm typing away at work or digging through my purse. I've had sets last me 3-4 weeks without a single lift or break, which is honestly unheard of for someone as hands-on as me!The application process is ridiculously easy, even for someone who isn't professionally trained. The tips come with this perfect pre-shaped apex that gives my nails that salon-quality curve without any filing or sculpting on my part. I just prep my nails, apply a thin layer of gel, press these on, and cure! The whole process takes me about 30 minutes or so now that I've gotten the hang of it.I'm also obsessed with how natural they look once applied. The thin but durable material blends seamlessly with my natural nails, and the sizing options fit perfectly on my nail beds. No more embarrassing moments with tips popping off during dinner with friends!If you're looking to elevate your at-home nail game without the salon price tag, trust me - Beetles Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips are absolutely worth every penny. My wallet is happier, my nails look professional, and I actually enjoy the process now. Total game-changer!

These Beetles Tipex Instant Apex Nail Tips are a total game changer! I’ve tried tons of nail tips before, but these are by far the best I’ve used. The almond short shape is super flattering and looks clean and professional—perfect for everyday wear or dressing up.What really sets them apart is how thick and sturdy they are. They feel strong like acrylics you’d get at the salon but are way easier (and cheaper) to apply at home. The fact that they’re pre-etched and pre-shaped saves so much time—no extra filing or buffing needed before applying gel. Just glue, cure, and go!The 16 different sizes make it easy to find a perfect fit for every nail, and with 192 pieces, you’re stocked up for multiple sets. They hold up really well, too—no cracks, no lifting, and they last a solid 2-3 weeks with proper prep.If you’re into DIY nails or just want to save time and money from salon visits, I 100% recommend these. Great quality, beautiful shape, and super easy to use even for beginners!

I’ve been DIYing my nails for like 6 or 7 years now and so far, these have solved almost every complaint I’ve ever had with other nail systems. I was a loyal Gel X user for about half of that time, but after one use these have outpaced that (significantly more expensive!) system. I used these with the Beetles gel glue and after only ~15 seconds in the lamp they were ON there and I couldn’t reposition or remove them if I wanted to - the adhesion was instantly just that good. I love that these are pre-etched so I was able to save a ton of time and effort by skipping that step and so far have not had any issues with the tips not adhering well to the gel (I frequently had that issue with my gel x tips, even after etching, generous use of primer, and generally meticulous, time consuming prep). I also love the sturdiness of these tips, they are extremely strong feeling and the apex is very high. I prefer the rigidity of these tips to the flexibility of a soft gel tip like gel x and I feel these will last better against the abuse I put my nails through. I like the look of a high apex but these are almost too thick of an apex even for me so keep that in consideration if you’re someone who likes a more natural, flush look to your extensions. With the thickness of the apex, these tips are also very flat inside, so if you have a very deep c curve or downturned nails, these will likely not fit you very well. My nails are kind of in the in between area of the spectrum of nail flatness and they fit, but I did have to use a little more gel glue than I was expecting to fill in some gaps. Because of the relative flatness of the inside of these tips compared to my nails’ slight curve from cuticle to free edge, they did end up angled upward more than I generally would prefer because that angle was required to maintain contact by the cuticle area. That said, I still found these easier to work with than gel x in terms of the quantity of gel required, and found that the fact that the rigidity of these tips won’t let you accidentally squish or twist the nail and the wet gel into a weird shape while curing made it easier to control.Update - I have now bought a few other shapes of these and I am still obsessed with them. They last the absolute best of all of the nail products I’ve had sets with (polygel, acrylic, hard gel, and soft gel tips/gel X). My magic combo is apres primer, modelones gel base, and beetles gel glue and this allows them to stay for weeks with no lifting.

Ok so I LOVE the stiletto shaped ones. Medium length is perfect. The coffin however is giving square and that really isnt my style. They are the perfect thickness and easy to apply and last long. These are my permanent nails now.

I love the shape,I love the thickness, and I love that they have a very high and very pronounced apex. There's a couple of things I don't particularly care for and one of those is the packaging. I hate the big, flat, awkward box they come in that takes up too much space, but I do understand the practicality of it and why they have to package them that way. The other thing I don't like is how they fit. They have this really weird gap at the cuticle that I'm not sur is a design flaw or just how they fit my particular nails. I'll probably have to seal them up with builder gel or polygel so as to not let water, dirt, and debris get into them. I probably wouldn't have bought them had I known that and I don't like to bother with returns, so I'll have to figure something out. I also bought a few other shapes and lengths and it only seems to be the short almonds that have this issue. The price was fair and I was lucky enough to catch them on sale. I wouldn't buy the short almonds again, but I would buy the other shapes again. Thanks.
