Show Me Your Nails 2.0

Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

 

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

These look pretty, @itsfi !  I still haven't tried press ons even though I have a couple of sets. ๐Ÿ˜…

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@Titian06, French tips are classic; and the press-ons are easier to work with than doing French tips myself, so these were great for that. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

So I got bored of the other nails and decided to try another set! These are also Olive and June and this time I tried the glue!

โ€ƒhard to see the design but it is called Smoke signals I believe!

@CorgiMommy  Thank you! ๐Ÿ˜Š 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@ather  beautiful set, perfect for fall! I am also curious to know how these work for you, and if you end up preferring the stickers/tabs or the glue. I just ordered some stuff from Olive & June, so looking forward to trying this brand!

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@caitbird  So I have used both the sticker tabs and glue. I like both for different reasons. The sticker tabs have lasted me up to 13 days but not consistently. I can get a good 10 days out of them. They claim up to 7 so definitely a win for me. I like the sucker tabs because they donโ€™t damage my nails and when I am ready I can just pull them off. Easy to change up. 

Glue on was a struggle at first. The first set I used the glue included in the container and I made a mess. They only lasted maybe 7 days and was frustrating but I think it takes time to really learn how to apply. I am not a quitter so I tried again and had no better luck and third time same. I could get 7-8 days and they popped off. After that I started to research a bit more. I also was reading the brush on glue was easier. So I ordered more and got the brush on glue. I applied a primer this time too and this time they didnโ€™t budge. When I was ready to take them off they didnโ€™t want to move. They lasted 14 days but I was tired of them. So they came off after lots of work. But I was happy that they actually were sticking. This is my next set since those and so far I am on day 6 and no signs of lifting. So I feel like I have cracked the code for applying them! I bought 5 pairs of Halloween nails 2 sticker tabs and 3 glue ones so if they all last I wonโ€™t use all of them! I hope you have good luck with them. I also find the glue ones fit my nails a tad better than the tabs. The price is also a reason I have gone with Olive and June. Thereโ€™s some on Amazon and they are double the price and there is a Canadian brand that is triple the price. And have less nail sizes to choose from! My nails are finally at the length where I can paint them again. But lately polish isnโ€™t staying on so I need to crack that code next! 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@ather  thanks so much for sharing your experience, that is very helpful! I'm glad you have figured out a system and this brand is working well for you! If I could get a set of press ons to last for a week or even 2 that would be amazing, so I will definitely do as you suggested! I ordered some of the glue ons and some with the sticker tabs so I will experiment to see what works best for me.

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

That's exciting!! @caitbird ๐Ÿ˜ƒ I hope you have fun experimenting. What kind of styles did you order? something for Halloween? ๐ŸŽƒ

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@CynthieLu  I ordered a few different ones and yes, I did get a set for Halloween:

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

You captured the smoke design on the nails beautifully @ather. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Autumnal vibes with the mani against  your pretty rust orange shirt sleeve. Let me know how the glue press-ons perform for you. And if you have a preference for stickers or glue. 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@itsfi  I have had these on now for 6 days and they seem to be sticking! They feel pretty strong! I like them both. 

Sticker tabs are great they seem to last me 10 days and I love how they are easily removable. They do their job. They donโ€™t damage my nails which has helped them grow out better. I like these ones because they are easily changed. I dislike they sometimes lift and my hair will stick in it. And pulls. They are great when I want to apply them fast without any fuss. 

glue on ones are a bit more tricky to apply. I seemed to have cracked the code to make them last which has been better. First few sets didnโ€™t last more than 7 days. Sometimes I just want my nails done and I donโ€™t want to fuss with them all the time. These has been helpful when I am having a few busy weeks and donโ€™t have time to change my nails or play with them. I havenโ€™t found the glue has damaged my nails either. I do need to work on removal. I saw a spray for press on nails on Amazon and I am curious if it works and what the ingredients are. Removal of the glue ones are my least favourite. I donโ€™t want to damage my nails. The glue on actually fit my nails better too. I should buy an extra pack of the stickers to use as the sticker tabs. I also like how the glue on ones make it feel like itโ€™s stronger of a hold. And no moisture gets in. The sticker ones make me worried if I was going on a vacation I wouldnโ€™t want a bunch of water trapped under them. 

I guess more research is needed!
