Color:S How to use nail stickers ? 1. Push back cuticle & file the nail surface (this is to smoothen the nail surface & to remove grease & moisture to achieve a long lasting result). Remember to clean the nail afterwards. 2. Select the suitable sizes (cut to the correct size if necessary). 3. Carefully remove the transparent protective layer. Then peel it off carefully. 4. Position onto "the moon" of the nail. Make sure the sticker curve touches the cuticle line. Press gently through the central line of the nail plate towards the free edge. Forget about the excess at this point. 5. Press from the moon towards the nail groove size by size. During this step, squeeze the air out of the sticker to ensure a smooth touch. 6. Cut the excess sticker, and then file the edges gently to make it smooth. Package Contents: 16 different sheets nail polish sticker

Not wonderful. Not awful.
Using Color Street as beginning reference point for nail wraps: these are limited to sizing. They tend to be too big or just a bit too small to cover the nail. They are also like super duper thin plastic wrap which means they go on nice and stretchy but are almost impossible to cut without scissors or nail clippers and then they jump back and leave a sliver of your nail tip exposed. To remove I have to soak in 100% acetone. On the plus side they last for a long time and the colors are pretty. I will not buy again but I will use them up.

Pleasantly Surprised
I was a little skeptical about these at first. I I usually buy color street but could afford them at the moment so gave these a try. I am very happy with these. I have been wearing them almost a week and they are still on and look great. I am an ER vet tech and constantly get all sorts of chemicals on my hands and my hands get used alot. Color street usually hold up pretty well with my demanding job and these have stood up just as well. I am very happy with how well these work. I would definitely recommend these as an alternative to color street. MUCH better prices as well!!!!

Less mess with SLIGHT learning curve
Hello person reading this review. As a background, I started doing my own nails obsessively when I was very young. I used the basic nail polish for a long time, and got super tired of painting EVERY day. I then transitioned to gel and utterly destroyed my nails. I then became self aware and realized that my constant need to be doing something with my nails was a symptom of my chronic anxiety, so armed with that, I stopped doing my nails all together, but I missed the pretty colors. So then nail stickers. These are the least time consuming and to date, the most satisfying way to do my nails. As you can tell by the picture provided I'm still learning.Things you NEED to do the nail stickers.1. Nail stickers.2. Emery board provided (a longer one makes the job easier, but the 2 inch ones they give you do the job)3. A steady hand (no cup of joe right before trying to CAREFULLY align stickers to your smile line)Things that will make the manicure last longer.4. no wipe gel top coat.5. UV lamp.6. a manicure set to push back your cuticles and strive for general nail health.To do the thing:1. Buff your nail, blow off nail dust. It seems counter-intuitive I know, but the sticker needs something to grab on to and your nail oils ain't it.2. Carefully stick on sticker. I start with my non-dominant hand at the pinky, but that is just preference. Press down firmly, sliding your finger down from tip to base to press out air bubbles to firmly affix sticker.3. Use the emery board to shave off the excess sticker. Place the board perpendicular to your nail and firmly file down until the sticker cuts against the tip of your nail. The same thing can be accomplished with a small scissors or a nail clippers. I just found the emery board leaves a more secure edge.If you invested in the extra things.Pre 1. Fix your Cuticles. Push those suckers back. Trim off dead skin, don't bite them off like me.4. Apply gel top coat, cure in UV or LED lamp you purchased.5. Apply cuticle oil because you love your nails.The picture provided is after a week of work. In that week I typed a lot and did other clerical work, moved several medium and large appliances (I work for a small appliance dealer in my home town), had one shift as volunteer barista, where I did a lot of dishes and made coffee for people in gloves. It was -20 degrees here for several of those days, and the nails still look pretty damn good. My application left a little to be desired so they essentially look the same as when I put them on.Small con, most of the "design" nails are intended for people with long nails, not normal every day nails, so take that how you will. Honestly, for the price I paid, and for how long the application lasted, I'm pretty happy with my purchase.Hope this helps!

Cheap and easy! Don’t look cheesy!
Two weeks ware. Regular polish isn’t gonna do that! I work in healthcare so my hands are in and out of gloves and washed 15k times a day. Not including all the cleaning one does at home. I love these. I don’t even use polish under or over them.

The stickers are not big enough for the toe nails!
I liked the final look after patching up the sides. I’m waiting to see how they last. The packet came with two tiny Emory boards so have your own...Also there are no instructions in the packet.

Great Toe Stickers!
I like these toe stickers... they last for weeks... easy to apply. The big toe is a bit too small so once I cut off the excess I use that to overlay the space and it blends very well. I seal with a top clear coat.

In love with my nails AGAIN!!!
Love, love, love these!! The first picture is when I did my nails about a week ago. The second picture is now. I hav done dishes, laundry, wood projects, planted flowers, pull weeds, cooked, washed my million gajillions times, have used hand sanitizer, plus so much more! I just followed the directions (duhhh lol) and no I haven't used a top clear coat either

Do not purchase!
I wouldn’t even give these one star. They are horrible. I put them on, and they come right off; they don’t stay on more than a few hours. They are cheap quality and have an awful plastic smell. Waste of money. I will be contacting the seller.
