    Best upgrade to my collection

    This is the best thing I have purchased to improve my manicures. It makes doing my nails so much faster and has improved my prep. I feel like my manis last longer now because I'm getting a more even surface after I remove the previous mani. Also is way easier to use than I expected.

    Missing the free bit

    I would’ve given 5 stars, but I don’t think I’ve received the free drill bit. Didn’t really thought of buying the set of bit since it said there’s a free one that came with the file. Now I need to wait for a few more days again before I can use it.

    Hey Eirene,
    Thanks so much for your review.
    Yes, our E-Files should arrive with the drill bit. I am so sorry that this arrived without one. I can look into this further for you and organise a drill bit for you. Feel free to email info@gelous.co and we can sort this out for you.

    Good

    Good quality but a bit hard to get used to. After a couple uses it gets easier to use.
