My Next Nail Sticker Manicure!

The Sally Hansen nail stickers that I tried recently are marked that they last for about 10 days. I had them on for around 5 days I think and I was pretty impressed. They seemed to hold up pretty well considering what I do for a living with my hands always in water. The nail polish that I had along with it chipped faster than the nail stickers so it was cool to me. I think 5 days was ok because I get bored of my polish quickly anyways!

Now I have tried my next set. These are by Essie and I will see how they hold up against the Sally Hansen nail art. I tried the leopard print ones and painted my nails a taupe color. These ones have a textured feeling to them. The leopard spots protrude and you can feel them. They are thicker than the others but I guess that is probably because of the raised texture. They were easy to put on like the other ones but these ones I had to cut the excess off, whereas the other ones I just slid over the edge of my nail and they cut themselves. We will see how they do!

Nail art stickers!

I got some free samples of nail art stickers in some magazines I received in the mail. I have never tried nail art stickers before and I have never really wanted to try them because I thought they might fall off, especially with my job at a hair salon. My hands are always in water and my nail polish chips quickly as it is! But I got these for free so I thought I might try them... nothing to lose, really. The only annoying thing is that in the free samples they only give you 2 to try!

The first I have tried are by Sally Hansen and they are a hounds tooth pattern. I painted the rest of my nails black to go along with it. I applied them Monday night and I have showered and washed my hair and washed my hands around the house and they haven't budged yet. I will see how they hold up at work!






















I have 4 other samples to try from Essie, I will see if the Essie ones are as good as the Sally Hansen ones.
