Best Incoco Nail Polish Strips, Snakeskin Nail Art, Rock On Deals

Customer Ratings:

Just a warning before you begin this review is about this color, but also about the product in general and includes some tips and hints so is rather long... :-)

Regarding this color my orders have matched my monitor color to my satisfaction, but I color calibrate my monitor regularly. Perhaps the previous reviewer's monitor is not calibrated well.

Mine did have the amount of blue in them that was pictured on the screen. It is a mix of blue/silver with black lines running through it. A "reptile" look according to many people who see them. I really like it. I has a sheen to it and the color effect changes depending how the light hits it. They also have/had the same in purple, but that was a bit too dark for me. I use it for pedicures.

My other favorites for pedis are twilight, and ballerina princess.

Below is posted in my other incoco reviews as well, but I posted it here is case you haven't seen it. Might be helpful to newbies.

I love nail films. I stumbled across them about 6 years ago and have been using them exclusively ever since no more polish here. I have been using Incoco products for at least 5 years and just discovered they are available on Amazon. I had been ordering directly from Incoco before. They are a wonderful invention others have jumped on board since that time as well, but Incoco has the best selection IMO.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Using manicure strips for pedicures

I use a lot of the manicure colors as pedicures including this color. I can usually get at least two, sometimes three pedicures out of a kit as one fingernail strip can often do two, sometimes 3 toenails.

TIP: Use a manicure scissors to cut the strips off cleanly, exactly where you want so you can use the remaining portion on another nail.

TIP2: If you wrap a small bit over the top of the nail cap the tip instead of filing it they will last a LOT longer.

Problems

The only problem I have is with possible drying out of the remaining nail strips. These pedicures last me at LEAST 3 weeks, but once you open the kit the strips start to dry out. So here are some tips on that...

1. Only take out the strips as you will use them. For example take out the large nail strip when you do the thumb/big toe. Leave the others covered in the package.

2. Do you work away from a fans/AC blowers, etc.

3. Seal up the package ASAP.

4. Seal it well! I use scotch tape at the end after I have squeezed out all the air I can. Then I seal that in a Ziploc with the air squeezed out.

5. If they do dry out, they will become more dry and brittle and prone to wrinkle and crack/tear as you apply. At this point I can still use them as I am an old pro by now :-) ... I've found the early wrinkles can be pressed out with a hard smooth object (like back of a spoon). Early/clean tears can be fixed with additional strips applied/lined up on the uncovered area just don't double up. But if they are too dried out you just have to throw them out! a real Bummer when you think you have a color ready to put on and open them up to find you have none!!

NEW Application tips

1. Don't worry too much about lining it up to your cuticle etc unless you are heading directly out the door! If you are staying in for the next 24 hours it will probably come off with some coaxing by you very easily. If you have to leave in an hour or so you can remove it by just peeling it off using a tweezers or other nail implement or anything even your nails (i don't recommend using them tho) to lift off the excess, or even filing it off. Just don't give up because you can't "line up" the strips.

2. I think the directions still say to file the edges. I find they last much longer if you "cap" the edge that is fold over some of the strip. Much like any salon manicure, if they do not cap the edges, it will start to pull away.

3. Mentioned above re-read above to keep your strips from drying out.

4. Cut the strips with a mani scissors. Save the paper and cover films for remainder if you are not going to use entire strip. You may want it for a toe or a patch later on.

All I can think of for now!

The nail strips are not the bright blue as the picture shows but more like a dull blue and gray. Definately would not order this color again!

Cheap Sally Hansen Salon Insta Gel Strips Starter Kit Shell We Dance - 1

Customer Ratings:

This is a very interesting product-and when I saw it, I thought I'd try it out. I have had a salon gel manicure in the past, which completely peeled off after 3 days, so I knew I didn't have much to lose.

First of all, no, it doesn't look like a salon manicure, but it's pretty close. I would say you need to be pretty well coordinated enough to be able to get the gel strips on both hands neatly. This is the hardest and most time-consuming part. Since my nails are short, I could use one strip for two nails.

Then the gel polish goes on, and you use the lamp for each nail one at a time. I'm not sure why someone said there was a short in the lamp-if it's defective, return it. When you push the button at the top, it goes on for 30 seconds, which is the required time for each nail. Then it goes to stand-by (or shuts off) until you push the button again. (I think the entire process took me 30 minutes).

The best part for me is that if any corners start to peel, I can re-polish and re-cure with the lamp, unlike the salon manicure, which cost me $30 or so-only to have it gone and no way to replace it without going in again. I see that the gel strips are not very cheap, but I plan to use coupons at local stores when I need to get more. It looks like the gel polish will last for awhile.

I needed this because my nails are weak and I just wanted something to look nice and perhaps help them grow. I'd say TRY IT. It's a fun and unique product.

Overall impression: Lasts slightly longer than a regular mani, but nothing like a real gel one.

Pros: Easy to do, especially if you aren't good with clean lines. Looks nice while it lasts. Easier to remove than a real gel manicure. Not messy. Price. If your nails aren't too long, you can actually use 1 strip on two nails.

Cons: LED has a short and doesn't stay on. Peels slightly about a week in. CAN chip, even with a few top coats.

I think this is an instance of "You get what you pay for". I would have given them 3 stars (maybe even 4), but the lamp doesn't stay on consistently. This is a real problem since you can only put one finger in at a time. You can fix the peeling by filing it a bit and applying another clear coat. However, the chipping (which isn't terribly frequent) just is what it is.

I bought this kit at Walmart for $25. Shell We Dance looked like a cute pink color but when I opened the strips they were so pale it hardly looks like you have color on your nails. The package says lasts 2 weeks without chipping well it lasted maybe 2 days. Horrible product wouldn't recommend buying this.

Best SALLY HANSEN Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips-SHSE530 Aflorable Deals

Customer Ratings:

I love these. ive read some negatives, but most of the problems that people are having can be fixed and easily. ive had a few nail strips that go on perfectly and then ive had a set that had lost its sticky. well, its a nail polish strip...whats the obvious solution to fixing that? nail polish remover lightly rubbed on the inside of the strip...works like a charm. rub enough on so you notice its sticky (once again) then apply to your nail like you would have from the start. I always add a very strong clear top coat as well. ive had NO issues thus far and I wear them for weeks at a time. lots of compliments.

Sally Hansen Beauty Tools, Nip'em Neat-Cuticle Nipper with pusher Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Overall this works really well! Besides for the fact that the roller mechanism really doesn't work at all. Despite what this advertisement says the seller is not sending this new! When mine arrived I could tell it had been opened and someone had attempted to glue the packaging back together! I even noticed that the clippers actually had little flakes of skin on them and the pusher had some kind of substance on them! I didn't want to deal with the hassle of returning and everything, so I just cleaned them thoroughly with rubbing alcohol and am still using it!

Cuticle nipper is sticky and difficult to open/close. The roller mechanism that springs the device open catches and is making a gouge on the inside of the handle. The cuticle pusher has sharp edges and scratches the nail. Overall, a poor product.

I ordered this set to add to my personal supplies of nail art. I am very pleased with it. The nippers are very sharp, and are small enough to be very easy to use. I like the fact that both pieces are metal and can be easily cleaned with alcohol if I use them for someone else. They were shipped quickly. Good product!

Best Sally Heat Resistant Glove Deals

Customer Ratings:

I bought this glove to use with a clipless curling iron, needless to say it did NOT do the job! I didn't realize that on the outside of the package that said "This glove will not protect from touching the iron plates directly" and that's exactly how I use the curling iron.

It is just like the body scrub gloves, like a scratchy mesh material, and the heat went right thru, was not able to hold a curl on the iron for more than 3 seconds or my hand was gonna get burnt. VERY disappointed about this. Sent it back and got a refund.

this product works and the fingers are short enough for me, unlike the glove that came with my curling iron. be aware, however, that it really doesn't extend far enough beyond the wrist, and I have gotten some nasty burns on my arms above the glove!

this doesn't really protect from the heat and it feels more like the body scrub gloves. i would invest in a better glove

I bought this to use with my new curling wand. I was mortified when it melted onto my curling iron and got plastic gunk all over my hair which made me late to an event. I barely even touched the wand and certainly didn't hold it with this, and the glove still didn't last. Waste of money you are better off using just a cotton glove or buying a different brand.

So i have been waxing my underarms for years, used to use microwave wax but when we got rid of the microwave i started using Nads which works well but is more expensive so i thought i'd give this a go. I'm not sure what the trick is, i tried thin layers, thick layers, the crappy paper strips that it comes with, my own cloth strips, my underarms are red and sore, but still hairy. I KNOW how to wax, and i CAN'T get this stuff to work. Waste of my money and time (and pain).

I've used this gel on my legs. It took a month or so to get the hang out it, but by the time I got to the bottom of the jar I was confident that I had the technique down. I like this product because it's very similar to Nads, so similar that I took a bit on the tip of my finger and ate some (remember the advert for Nads, with the lady sticking her finger in the jar as a midnight snack? lolz don't eat it! But I live..) It's superior to Nads because it does not completely crystalize and become useless after a month. It stays the perfect consistency for as long as you keep it.

My secret technique: The strips it comes with are crap. Not only are they thin, but they are paper and are unyielding to the curves of your body. Cut strips of cloth (I cut both thick and thin a thin, old sheet or a piece of canvas) just make sure it's white or very light colors or else you'll have bespeckled legs. Then I put on a thick but even layer (just to completely cover the hairs) place the strip on and warm it up and down with my palm, make my skin taught and pull upwards fearlessly and without hesitance.

You might be able to place the strip over another section of hair, but it doesn't seem to mold and meld around the hairs like it does the first go. I find the second time to be spotty, you are better off just applying a fresh layer of gel and a new strip. You can simply rinse your homemade strips off , dry them and reuse them!

This is worth the money! I will be getting another gel to prepare for the summer!

I've used this product twice since I bought it the other day...I cannot get this product to work...I have been waxing for years...some of the other reviewers said it took a while to get the hang of it and maybe that is true, but it shouldn't be so hard! It really does wipe away nicely with warm water, which is great if you are attempting to wax your brows and misplace the wax...but I couldn't get the wax to take away more than a few hairs at a time on my legs, Ouch!

This gel is easy to clean up but the process is VERY tedious and you get VERY sticky in the process. You have to apply the gel JUST right in order to get results. In my opinion, it's just too much work... I don't have hours to spend practicing until I get it right. There are MUCH better products out there.
