I tried the incoco nails polish strips before trying this one and I liked the ncoc better because they are not so flimsy. I liked the butterfly design but I will not be buying Sally Hansen nail polish strips anymore.
Ps: many of my friends have a hard time taking the strips off with nail polish remover including me,but my sister in law told me to buy pure acetone and I'm glad I did because thanks to her advise I don't have to dedicate 30 minutes to take the strips off.

I can't say enough about Sally Hansen nail strips (and Incoco nail strips)! Finally, I can have painted nails! My nails are thin and any nail polish I used chipped within two days sometimes they chipped in less than one day. I bought these based on the reviews and I had very low expectations, I think because what works for most people's nails usually doesn't work for me.
Honestly, the first trial didn't go well. They chipped almost immediately around the edges, but it wasn't terribly noticeable because of the pattern. The rest of the polish stayed on nicely.
The second trial was much betterI learned how to smooth the edges better so no chips. After 7 applications, I thought I'd write a review it's FOR REAL!!!
WHAT I LIKE:
*Nails last at least 7 days (they probably last longer, but I have to keep my nails very short for my sport, so I have to change nail polish once a week)
*The patterns make my short nails look feminine
*They are instantly dry no waking up in the morning with smudges!!!
*They are affordable I get TWO applications from each box because my nails are short
THE DOWNSIDE:
*Taking the nail polish off is a process have plenty of nail polish remover on hand and patience, too.
*Putting the nail strips on takes longer than painting nails. (If you count dry-time the strips are faster than regular polish, but the application time is longer.)
SALLY HANSEN VS. INCOCO
*Sally Hansen's strips come in TWO separate pouches, so I can have two applications. Incoco's strips come in one pouch that can be resealed. Sometimes the second set can dry out and not work.
*Sally Hansen's strips are often available on Prime so you can get them faster (and cheaper) than Incoco's strips
*Incoco's big advantage is tasteful designs. Some are just gorgeous. I'm a 40+ woman and am not interested in skulls and tattoo art on my fingers. Most of Sally Hansen's patterns are targeted at teens. Incoco's designs are beautiful and more appropriate for women.
TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL APPLICATION
*Make sure the room is WARM. I turn on a space heater.
*Once you have the polish in place, smooth it down well with your fingers.
*Make sure to smooth the tips well any rough edges will "catch" on fabric and chip
*Apply a clear top coat within 24 hours.
*Apply a second top coat after 3 or 4 days.

I tried this because I rarely have time to do my nails and when I do, I inevitable smudge or imprint them. This product is a great solution. I am pretty plain on my fingers and will likely use this on my toes next time, but overall nice product. Oh and if you have nails wider then the strip you can overlap them and it is practically invisible.

I use the Sally Hansen Effects nail polish strips all the time. I love the patterns and I do not miss the smell of nail polish. I would give them a higher rating if they had a few more sizes available. I do need to stretch the patterns to reach the sides of my larger nails and that is not easy task. They last for days and come off easy with nail polish remover. I follow the package directions and I have never had a strip come off before I took them off. Great for travel.
