Has anyone tried the Green Flash gel manicure system?

Really intrigued to try this system since its free of toxic compounds and you use an LED light rather than UV light uk.manucurist.com/products/green-flash-essentials-kit

Has anyone tried it and is it any good?

I'm on the look out for a kit but know nothing. So I'd be interested to hear. This sounds great though.

I've got it last winter and really like it - I haven't used any other home gel systems so can't compare though.

The polish lasts about a week on me and I tend to be pretty hard on my nails. It is just as easy to remove as they say, I bought the clips and leave them on each nail for a minute or two and the polish just wipes off.

I would say it's worth getting the higher powered lamp, although if you look on Amazon the Green Flash ones are obviously rebranded versions of ones you can buy at a lower price there. Depends whether it's cheaper if you buy a kit.

It's still using UV light, just from an led lamp.

Thanks for the comments. I didn't realise it was a UV light. I suppose your hands would only be exposed to small doses of UV light but I'm not especially keen on the idea of UV lights, but I'm probably just being a bit paranoid!
