I have never been able to have very pretty nails as 1. my fingernails are short, weak etc and 2. I have clubbed thumbs, so the nails there look quite strange. I went to a salon once for prom to have my nails done and they looked pretty, but it took over 2 hours and cost about 30...
Last week I decided to try some false nails. Now, I have always thought "ah, you can always tell when nails are false..." but not these!
I bought the Super Short Square Bare nails as I thought they looked the most natural and that was all I wanted - the clean manicured look. They were quite expensive at 6.49 but they are by a good brand and looked good quality compared to the other false nails in store (Superdrug).
I was so excited to try them. I got home and did them right away. The glue is called "Pink Gel Glue". You get a small pin in the pack to pierce a hole in the top and I found this difficult and ended up just cutting the tip of the glue tube off.
There are 10 sizes in each pack and before starting, I picked out all the right sizes for my nails. I even cut some down to make them even shorter (especially for my thumbs) and then filed them to make it smooth again. This was easy as the plastic is very flexible unlike cheap nails which are hard and uncomfortable.
I glued them on and they look JUST as fantastic as salon gel nails. They look like my own and I can barely see where the plastic starts against my nail. The glue is extremely strong and bonds within a few seconds, just enough time for you to arrange the nail in the correct position, then hold down tightly and wha-lah.
I really love these and am so happy with the result that I will be buying more. It has been a week and they are still intact, looking great :)
I like the short sized ones and they only just go over the tip of my finger and I think this looks more natural and pretty.
They worked really well even though I have flat arched finger nails, clubbed thumbs, and weak nails. Get them they are brilliant :)!
