Hey lovelies, it's been awhile since I did an actual nail wraps post, I'm back with a completely different brand. I've been looking at these nail wraps for awhile. They're stocked in Claire's and of course Girls With Attitudes website.
By now everyone should know what nail wraps are, the cheats way to nail art and I'm a massive fan of them. I love how there are now so many affordable brands out there now, rather than just pricey Minx that you get done at a Salon. But do they live up to the high standards of Minx or the brands I've tried already?
Back in December I was asked if I'd like to sample some of their nail wraps, that day I'd been looking at them in town too. I accepted since I'm the biggest nail wraps fan around. I love finding new brands. They arrived super quick. I received the Zebra, that I'm reviewing today and another set of the Diamond nail wraps. Out of the two, my favourite is the Zebra. However the Diamond set remind me of Aztec prints, which is back in for SS12.
These applied pretty well, I hardly had any creases, about two in the whole set. Which is brilliant for wraps that don't need heat and my first go with these. I like how the wraps aren't overly thick. But, there's a strong smell to them, whether it's just their packaging. I've never known nail wraps to have a smell like this. The sizing isn't perfect either, now I have quite small hands and fingers, I've had to file and cut my nails down, as these nail wraps weren't long enough and a few of the nail wraps aren't wide enough. Shame, because I love the design. Though saying this, I only have this problem with my ring finger.
However, they filed off amazingly and they are the quickest nail wraps I've used. I was finished in about 5-10 minutes.
I'd give them an overall 6.5/10. As for wear length I'll keep you up to date on Twitter.
I'm planning to use the second set on my toe nails, since I have teeny tiny feet and toes.
Disclaimer: Yes, I was sent them, but I'll always give an honest review & only accept products that suit me!

Hmm, I've never really been tempted to try nail wraps, personally I prefer nail art I've done myself just because it's more personal and the thought of creases scares me a little haha, it's a shame about the sizing on these, though, 'cause the designs are lovely! xx
ReplyDeleteYeah, shame since theyre pretty good and super cheap :/
DeleteStill can't believe I haven't tried nail wrap's yet! These look lovely, and so cheap too!
