I'm not happy with my starter kit for several reasons. 1) The dark glue is so dry it seems like it's already run out. It would be better to provide a full supply with a ring at the opening to clear off excess glue. 2) The Gossamers are nice and 10-12cm were the right size to send in the starter kit. I'd recommend labeling the Gossamers with the size on top of the disk. For a new user, this would help me create a great shape without flipping the disks over to make sure I've got the right length. 3) I used about 1/2 the Gossamers in my first application. If I use this many for each set, I'll spend about $15 per application, not including glue or glass. I think that's a lot and there are less expensive, just as effective, ways to get the same look and functionality for less. 4) The kit includes samples of Meltaway- a product to remove oil and makeup from lashes before application and glue after application. The sample is in a plastic packet- think sugar packet. When you cut the top off to dispense product, it works. But when you're done, there's no way to seal the packet. Liquid pours out from the flat bottom and there no way to stop it except propping it up- which isn't a great design idea. After the first time you try it, it's gone. 5) The fuse control wand is nice, but not easy to use when applying Gossamers. They fuse well, but Wandoms, which should reduce glue sticking, are flimsy, It's an art to get them completely on without popping the ends. 6) I ordered additional Glass, bringing my total above $150 which should have triggered free shipping, but didn't. I wrote asking for a credit but didn't receive it or a response at all. 7) The packaging is nice, but not worth the cost of the kit. Overall, it's a disappointment.
