The ASP Soak Off Gel Polish Complete Starter Kit contains:
- top coat
- base coat
- bonder
- Passionate Pink Gel Polish color
- 1 oz. 2-n-1 Dehydrator and Cleansing Wipe
- 1 oz. Conditioning Soak Off Solution
- ASP Mini LED Curing Lamp
It takes less than 5 minutes for a complete gel manicure or pedicure. I followed the instructions in the box and the results were nothing short of amazing.
1. Apply the dehydrator and cleansing solution to clean nails
2. Apply bonder so that the polish adheres to your natural nails (this step is optional)
3. Put nails under the mini LED curing lamp for 30 seconds after each coat starting at this step
4 – 6. Apply 2 coats of gel polish followed by a single layer of top coat. Cure with the LED light for 30 seconds for each layer.
7. Wipe the nails with the dehydrator and cleansing solution to remove the sticky layer that forms.
My poolside pedicure is ready to go!
I honestly can’t get over how quick and easy it is to do my own gel manicures and pedicures at home. I love that I don’t need an appointment to get gorgeous shiny nails that look great for at least 2 weeks without chipping. When I’m ready I’ll soak the polish off with the conditioning soak off solution. You can find this amazing gel manicure set in stores and online at Sally Beauty. I’m planning to buy an assortment of colors to add to this set so that I’ll be ready for any and all moods!
I recommend that you follow Sally Beauty on Instagram and other social media to learn more about their products. I find that they always have great tutorials and style inspirations for hair, nails and cosmetics.
Tell me some of your favorite products at Sally Beauty to complement your summer looks.
Thank you Sally Beauty for providing these products! All opinions are mine and aren’t influenced by anyone else.

Looks so easy, and I love the shade you chose. Hope it’s as easy to remove – that’s the barrier for me

Gel on your toes is perfect for beachy manis! My toe polish always chips so quickly due to sand and water so this is the perfect solution!
Author
Yes, I agree! This lasts forever on me. I’m talking months if I let it. LOL! Stacie xo

I think you’d really like it! You can also buy the led light on it’s own if you have gel polish already. Stacie xo

Gel polish is the best for toes- it lasts sooo long! That’s a great shade too.
Author
Yes, I thought the shade was pretty for them to include in the kit too. Now I need to decide what else to buy… Stacie xo

In case you wanted to cut down on time even more, try to search for one-step gel polishes. I’m not sure what’s on the market in the US but I’m sure there are plenty of options over there. 🙂 The one I occassionally use is EBD’s q-lac. It is one step, which means you only need to apply the color polish, and it doesn’t have that tacky residue once it’s cured.
Author
Yes, I’ve been seeing some polishes advertised like that. I will definitely try one soon. Thanks! Stacie xo

I plan to do a gel mani for vacation next week!

They’re definitely worth the aggravation to remove the polish later on down the road. Enjoy your vacation! Stacie xo

I wish I’d done a gel mani before I went on vacation. The vacation mani I did myself lasted all of two days. You make this look so easy, I’ll have to give it a shot myself!

This pedicure is still going strong for me. It doesn’t come off until I take it off. Let me know if you try a gel manicure sometime. Stacie xo
