Pros:
-The prints are really cute!
-You don't have to have a steady hand and be good at painting your nails perfectly.
-You don't have to worry about spilling nail polish or wiping polish off your skin when you mess up around your cuticles.
-This doesn't take super long to do, so I'm sure after awhile you'd get used to doing this in about 10 minutes.
-No dry time! Instant glorification!
Cons:
-I didn't enjoy the process of picking the best shaped strips for my nails and applying them/filing the excess down.
-I'm not really sure that these will last 10 days. The box says that they will, but based on how they feel on my fingertips, I don't see how these won't split/chip when I shampoo my hair.
With that said, I'd say these turned out to be a success! Like I said, I'll be curious to see how long these last. If they last 10 days, I would say these are totally worth it for a special occasion or maybe even a short vacay! I probably wouldn't try a solid color strip on my nails...I'd just rather paint them if I was going with a solid. But...if I was in the mood for a print and wanted to do it myself, I'd definitely go with these strips!
Here's a few quick shots from my phone!
What do you think? Do you want to give them a go? I am thinking leopard print next!!!
Have a great week back at work! I hope you had a great Christmas :)

very cute! i wanted to do the candy cane stripe for Christmas. I've done the leopard print and they did stay for a while. Not bad!
I am thinking about doing the leopard print for New Years. I want to see a picture if you do something with yours!!
Hi, i am obsessed with these! The best way to get them down to the right size for me was to use small scissors and cut them down to the appropriate width and length. Then I use tweezers to hold the edge of the sticker and peel it and place it on my nail... oh and i also put a sticky base coat like Orly Bonder and they last soo much longer! Love your blog!!
