Zebra OMG Nail Strips

Hi all.

I'm still plodding along on my family computer, and iPhone pics, but I'm not missing too many mani's so it's not that bad!

Today I'm reviewing some nail wraps from OMG Nail Strips, the ones I'm wearing here are called Psychedelic Zebra which are a really fun and bold design.

Now the previous nail wraps I have tried were quite difficult to trim (and you guys know I have slim-ish nails, and freaking tiny little finger nails), but with these strips it was really quite easy to trim, and really easy to file the excess off the nail too. All in all the application of these was really easy, positioning the wrap near the cuticle was easy enough to do even though the glue is really great, and these lasted perfectly for four days until I changed my nails up.

And these are the strips that OMG Nail Strips sent me to try out. I still haven't tried the checkerboard ones, I think I may save them for when I'm low on time but need a long lasting mani.

*These were sent to me for consideration of review*

Nouvella Nails Review

Hi all, Thursday yay! So close to the weekend!

Today I have some nail wraps to show you that I was sent back in June, but haven't gotten around to using until recently.

I was sent these wraps by Nouvella Nails, and they have a great selection of designs, so check them out.  I sadly didn't have too great of a time with these as I had to cut away quite a lot to get them down to my diddy nail size, I also had a bit of a rough time with the edges staying down, but for my first time using nail wraps - heated nail wraps at that I think these turned out pretty good.

See what I mean about the problems I had with the tips lifting? I think maybe I fudged up the application process, maybe I didn't heat them up enough (I used a hairdryer). Still these had such a bold impact because of the high intensity shine that you didn't really notice the lifting at all.

Have you tried wraps that need to be heated for application? Any tips?
