If
you're anything like us, then you will dream of beautiful nails with
minimal work! We have tried every nail strengthening product on the
market just to achieve the desired look but still haven't found anything
we are in love with....yet.
There
has been quite some hype around imPRESS nails, so we have have been
desperate to try these out. There was quite a large range of designs
available from completely clear, ready to paint any colour to lace
patterns and coloured tips. We opted for the classic french manicure
design (£8.99) for our trial.
The
packaging claims that these may last up to one week and are extremely
easy to apply! Application does stay true to it's word as all you need
to do is peel off the adhesive strips, press them into place and go! We
really loved the look of them once they were in place and followed the
instructions to the letter. The instructions recommend not getting your
hands or nails wet for up to 30 minutes after application. We played it
safe and kept our hands out of water for well over an hour to try and
ensure that the nails had the best chance of survival!
The
nails did feel really quite secure once they were on which was great.
Although, as the adhesive is not applied all the way up the length of
the nail, so they can start to feel quite loose if caught on something.
In order to give the nails half a chance at surviving, I put them on on Saturday before going out for dinner. They lasted the night very well and all of the following day. With a dance class, audition workshop and singing class. Unfortunately on the Monday the index finger nail came off. I tried to see if one of the spares would fit but none of them were really the right size. I opted to leave them as they were to see how long the rest of them lasted. I managed to keep the remaining 9 nails in place until the Thursday - so 5 days in total.
Although
they didn't quite last the full week that they claim to, I thought that
the look of these were great and I would absolutely purchase them again
for a one day event. A wedding or night out would be perfect for
imPRESS nails!
Overall
I feel that these were £8.99 well spent. I think I would keep some nail
glue in my purse at all times just in case I was to lose one during the
day as one nail falling off was not quite the look we were going for!
