Manicista Avis 

Extremely disappointed with this product. It is not as described on the website, does not work and was a complete waste of money. It took weeks to arrive as it came from China, looked cheap and nasty and had no instructions. I spent hours putting it on, it looked awful and took me hours to get off! My nails were left damaged. I have thrown the product away. Complete waste of money! The positive reviews on their website must be fake!

Honestly wish I had came here first. False advertising, not from the UK, it's cheap and nasty china product. Ruined my nails, never had damage this bad before. Don't waste your money.

If I’d read these reviews I’d not have bought. Advertises it comes in a box. Mine came in bubble wrap, as a lot of others said. My activator bottle was empty so can’t use this unless I buy a bottle from somewhere else. So not such a good deal. I tried customer service and ive made numerous comments on their site to no avail. A lot have complained about evenness etc and not being able to remove. I’ll stick to doing my gel nails they look great.

I ordered a set and paid my money , still haven't received the product , I have sent countless e-mails still nothing wish I had read the reviews before I ordered

Very disappointed with these products, delivery took months with mo updates at all. Products arrived wrapped in bubble wrap no box or packaging as it shows on website. No instructions included. I found products quite difficult and messy to use. Nails look nothing like all their adverts state. Avoid this company!

DO NOT BUY ! If I could leave negative I would . Not a UK company. Shipped from china . Takes weeks to arrive . Doesn’t come in gift box just bubble wrap ( can’t give as a gift ) When you ask for refund won’t allow you as it’s gone past 14days . Paypal wouldn’t refund either now I’m £30 out of pocket . I wish I had seen the reviews before I bought. Stay away not worth more than a few quid .

I wish I had come here first before buying from this sham company.
As others have stated this arrived in a lose plastic bag without the nice display box as advertised.
I bought this as Christmas present for my wife and was really disappointed to receive it in this condition,
Not to mention all orders are picked and packed from china rather than a local online company the website leads you to believe.
Overall very disappointed and would advise others to go elsewhere!

Order arrived today in bubble wrap not in a box as advertised how on earth can you give that as a present very disapointed and at £30 not that cheap either have no idea what to do with it now.

Took over 3 weeks to arrive, thought I was ordering from the UK but came from China. First application looks pretty rubbish and now can’t remove it! Colours all look the same too

If I could give minus star rating I would! Dreadful customer service. Been waiting 3 weeks on my order and tracking has not updated in 10 days. I have emailed asking for update 3 times and been ignored. Ended up getting charge back for the cost from my bank. When ordering nothing mentions that this is coming from China. Please avoid at all costs!

Disgusting company do not order from them!!!
They do not know how to treat their customers
If you ask for a refund they say they cannot authorise it just an excuse
Then they ignore you
DONOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY!!!!

Avoid at all cost, ordered the starter kit, never arrived, didnt answered my emails until I contacted my bank to get my money back. Avoid at all cost

If I could give this -1 stars I would. Do not fall for this.. awful awful experience and 30 pounds down the drain. You will have no chance getting a refund either. Avoid.

I ordered it, but unfortunately it damages the nails too much. The adhesive is like superglue, and when you remove it(acetone is not working), it also pulls off the nail underneath. I’m trying to get a refund, but because they’re not responding properly, it’s now past the refund period — so I was basically scammed and I can’t get my money back now.

I was going to buy this but thought I’d check the reviews first, and I am glad I did!! I am totally sick of these people ripping us off, we work hard to earn our money!! Someone in the UK is the go between for a company in China, a get rich quick con, sending out pure rubbish, knowing full well it’s not what the customer ordered. It’s about time Trading Standards shut down these so called ‘companies’ and the person in the UK going to prison! REPORT TO CITIZENS ADVICE WHO WILL INFORM TRADING STANDARDS!!! The more people that complain, the quicker it will be done!!

I am surprised to see so many negative comments. I followed the instructions sent by email and watched a couple of YouTube videos, ans I have to say I absolutely love it!

I suspect the negative experience is from everyone who hasn’t followed instructions…

I found it pretty easy to apply it too. Tue first attempt on just one nail, I had to remove and start again, but it was pretty straightforward after. I would 100 per cent recommend it. It has been a week and not one chip.

Product is rubbish avoid. Lumpy and minimal liquid provided. Zero customer service. Fake reviews on website. Avoid

Awful product. The activator didn’t work. Dreadful, the worst dipping powder I’ve used. Avoid. Also from China so not good

AVOID at all costs, placed an order, went on tracking to receive an alert that my package had either been returned to the supplier or retained by customs. Sent an email to Manicista requesting a refund and got no response. I have since sent further emails requesting a response and refund and have still had nothing back!

Do not waste your money on this cheap shoddy product. The advertising is so different to the actual product. It doesn't stick on evenly and when you try to take it off it takes forever and stains your nails. Its definitely not worth the money, but at any price it is impossiblemto use and look nice
