This is a great brush to moisten with slip solution or isopropyl alcohol, and move your Polygel around. Mine got so much use, I need a new one, but the bristles are high quality, securely attached, and the brush is comfy to hold. My only tip is that you get a cheap acrylic brush from Amazon (Secret only has quality acrylic brushes), to moisten with your slip solution, and give a final smoothe to your nail before curing. This tip helped my lumpy Polygel application, and greatly reduced the filing necessary.
