I am actually positively surprised! I spontaneously bought these a while ago and kind of forgot about them. I came across them during the holidays and thought I’d give them a try. It was quite easy once I got the technique down for applying them, and it went relatively quickly. I am really bad at painting my nails, and they often get ruined on the very first day, not to mention all the mess 😆 There’s also no point for me to get my nails done at a salon since I work as a mechanic, so I can forget about long, well-shaped nails anyway. I also have wide nails, which means that press-on nails rarely fit (the largest size is usually too narrow for my thumbs🤦♀️) But these shaped nicely so the entire nail was covered. In the picture, it’s been over 3 weeks since they were applied, and sure, they are a bit worn, but considering all they’ve been through (screwing cars, washed with coarse soap, doing dishes, hand sanitizer, exposed to various oils and products, bathing kids x number of times who had stomach flu, etc.) I am super impressed with the durability. I will definitely buy again.
An extra plus for me is that they also protected my nails from external damage in my profession, especially since I bent them down a bit under my nail, and normally I get cracks/grooves at the very end, and often I just rip off the remaining (there’s no time to file them down during work hours), and the nails become uneven, sometimes very short and even crooked. This week I had a job where I had to do a lot of work with my hands in tight spaces and couldn’t use gloves, and the nails would have broken off at the places where the color is missing in the picture, but the nails are intact thanks to these👍
