I received this product complimentary to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program and surprisingly  I am loving these! I can never manage to grow my nails and these are the perfect solution. It makes it look like I have long nails in minuets. They were really easy to use match the size and peel off the backing and press them on. I would recommend going for a size sightly smaller rather than slightly bigger if it's not a perfect match one was a bit bigger and looked and felt funny. you get 24 nails so it should be easy to find the right match. I also would recommend when sticking them down to slide along with the edge of the nail till you hit the cuticle then press down to get the perfect fit. I found them a bit rough on the ends so when I was done applying them I filed them a bit and added a top coat to the end to smooth them out. 

One thing I was really liking was the design. They had a cute animal print design with a glitter background, and glitter is so hard to remove but with these all you have to do is peel them off. There are lots of cute designs which is a plus for a nail inept like myself. 

I found they only lasted a few days. As a cake decorator I work with my hands a lot, and find myself with my hands in water doing dishes, so I think that played a big part in the longevity of the manicure. These would be great for short term use like a night out or the weekend. For the price it's a great deal $5.99- $7.99 considering a full set of acrylic nails at the salon can run $40-$50. 


I will defiantly be trying these again the next time I'm in the mood for long nails and a cute and easy manicure.
