Hello again ladies! I recently purchase two boxes of these nail polish strips from my local Walmart. I got them for $8.50 each. I got this champagne color and a zebra striped set. I put the champagne color on my nails because I work in a restaurant and we have to have light or neutral colored nails. I ended up putting the zebra striped ones on my big toes only and painted the rest of my toes a teal color.
The application process was easy. You just rub nail polish remover over your nail, peel off the clear plastic layer and then apply the nail polish strip and rub it on your nail for a good 15 to 30 seconds. I did notice however the my hands were getting a tiny bit sweaty while doing this so some of the strips toward the end didn't want to stay on. I would recomend sitting in front of a fan or stopping halfway through and dunking your hands in ice water for just a minute or so.
As far as wear and tare goes, I did find that my fingernails started chipping at the tips after a few days, but I think its because I use my hands for everything at work because I am a waitress. But the zebra print is still on my toes and looks PERFECT! (Besides the line of just nail where my toe nails have grown.) I did try to go back a week later and put the rest of the zebra ones on my nails. That didnt go so well because the strips were brittle now. So I do need to point out that you need to use the strips immediatly after opening the package.
Would I buy these again?!? Absolutely, but only for my toe nails because its been 3 weeks and the zebra print toe nails still look amazing. Maybe if I didn't use my hands so much I would buy them for my hands but until I get out of the restaurant business, I will be using these nail polish strips for pedicures only!
