My last attempt to wear nail wraps didn’t end well at all,
so I was worried this was going to be another epic fail. However, it was either
this or naked nails, so I went for it!
One thing I liked from the get go is they give you two full
sets of wraps to work with, one for French manicures, and one for full nails. They
also provided a nice range of sizes, so these should pretty much fit anyone. I
think they might even work for pedicures, but I’ll leave that for someone else
to try.
I absolutely love the design. I am a sucker for
anything with suns, moons, and/or stars on them. These could not be more “me”!
I had a tough time applying these wraps. Since we're talking decals as opposed to pre cured nail polish, they don’t stretch nor can they be easily repositioned. I was able to
do a passable job, but I had a bunch of wrinkles I couldn’t get out. Lucky for
me, the design hid a lot of that. Well, in IRL at least. The camera never lies, and in this case, I wish it did!
According to the package, the wraps are supposed to last up to a week. Did they?

No, but in this case, operator error is a factor. The nails where I got the wraps on properly held up well, while the ones with wrinkles took more damage. I believe if I’d done a better job applying them it would have lasted longer. This went three days before I needed to take them off.
Removal was surprisingly easy. I was able to peel them off
with no problem, no residue, no nothing left over.
Verdict: Good
Of everything I’ve tried that’s promised to last a week so
far, this one has done the best. These were a gift from my friend, so while I don’t know what
the cost was, I’d say they were definitely worth it. If I come across this
brand in my travels, I’m definitely buying more. I’m hoping my results with
improve with more practice.
