These strips make doing your nails a cinch! I've never been able to paint the left hand to look professionally done, so I've always had to go to the salon, which I HATE. I'm all about do-it-yourself and love that now I can do them whenever I have a few minutes at home and not only have them neatly painted, but in eye-catching, expressive designs! They just look REALLY GOOD!
The price is right...My nails are short so I can use a half pack (8 strips) and do both hands, my two big toes, and accent other toes (I paint the rest). I get a great artistic mani/pedi look for a fraction of the price I was going to the salon for acrylic/gels/polish/designs.
They're quick...It took me some time to do them the first couple of times, but now I can do my hands/toes in about 20 minutes. The long part is getting the old set off... you have to use pure acetone, and even then it takes a little while unless you soak. There is no dry time though, so it's just a matter of how quickly you can apply the strips!
They last... I'm really tough on my hands. I clean heavily, care for a one year old, and my employment involves my hands a lot. They last four days looking A+, and if I ignore some of the imperfections then I can go a week. I'm usually happy to change them after a few days, so I can try a new one and because they're SO cheap I'm still saving a ton! I'm sure if you either take the time to apply a base coat and/or are lighter on your hands, they will last longer
As a bonus, my nails are growing stronger because the strips are thick and protective! I have naturally thin nails, and the salon processes were killer on them.
They are at LEAST a must-have for last minute occasions where you need a good mani/pedi and just don't have time. They have already saved me a couple of times.
The only downfall is the selection of well designed styles/colors. I've done a few that looked gaudy, childish, or didn't apply well (FYI the plain color strips seem to be thinner and bunch easily), so I took them off before they were due to be re-done. I wish they would make more sophisticated, or even just simple designs like these checkered ones... but for now I just rotate a few. They are a great start to a design with other glued-on accents too.
Also IMO the value packs aren't great because one of the sets is of poor design...Usually one looks gorgeous and the other pretty awful when applied.

I've tried other Nail "Polish" Art Stickers...by reputable brands and even bought some at wholesale warehouses that sell professional salon equipment/products. These are some of the best I've used. They last, they are easy to use, and the only thing I would say is be careful when putting them on. They work REALLY well, so if you mess up...it won't be easy to fix. They are like press on nails but just the stickers.Makes it so much easier not to have to do your nails everyday, and they don't CHIP! haha LOVE THEM! Highly Recommended
