Today I have something completely new for me to show you: Nail Strips (also called nail wraps). OMG Nail Strips sent me two sets of their nail strips to test and review, thank you so much!
Application of the nail strips wasn't too hard, even for somebody as clumsy as I am. Each set contains 14 strips in 7 sizes, so chances are good that you find a matching one for every nail. And if you don't, just chose a bigger one and simply use scissors to trim it to the right size. Remove the strip from the back foil, place it on the nail, smooth it, fold the excess down over the tip and file it away. You can see on the pictures below that I managed to get some wrinkles in the foil, but this was no problem: topcoat (I used KBShimmer Clearly On Top) smoothed everything out, as these Nail Strips are made of real nail polish (which made removal really easy, just normal polish remover). If my babbling is too confusing, here's an instruction video.
OMG Nail Strips are supposed to last up to 10 days. I only wore them for three days, so I can't tell if 10 days wearing time is realistic. I had some tipwear after three days, I guess that's because it's not really possible to wrap the tips with these strips. But I had no chipping or fading of the printed pattern.
You can buy OMG Nail Strips in an endless amount of patterns here. Don't forget to follow them on Facebook.
Cool! A quick and easy mani, always a good thing...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely :-)
DeleteAwesome design! And three days is pretty good if you ask me. Nail stickers usually only last a day on me :-S
ReplyDeleteIt's the first time I tried nail strips. I guess nail polish strips like these last longer than plastic stickers :-)
DeleteLindo!
