Today during my drugstore rounds, I spotted new gel nail polish kits by Nailene. This is the first time I'm seeing true do-it-yourself gel nail polish.

They offer a starter kit (large boxes in the photo above with the red nails on them) that contains an LED drying lamp to flash-cure your polish, a cleanser, primer, gel color, and then a base and top coat. You only have to buy this kit once, thankfully, because it's close to $60!
Next on the shelf (with the picture of the white nail on the box) is the essentials kit, which replenshes the cleanser, primer and base/top coat when you run out.
Finally, there are 12 shades (bottom row, small boxes in the picture above) that are supposed to last a full 2 weeks without chipping, peeling or fading.
The total range costs between $12 and $60.
Here are some pictures I took of the starter kit box:
Would you spend the $60 for this? Do you think it's worth it, or would you rather just go to the salon? Or use regular nail polish?
