Nail Fraud

Hey MakeupLanders!

Today I decided to finally try out the nail decals that everyone is always raving about! I purchased Nail Fraud at Ulta in a beautiful houndstooth print.

Now this was my first time every using anything like this. I am a bit of a nailpolish geek, I'm constantly changing the color and I'm always known for having unique colors and styles. So these houndstooth dry nail strips were perfect for my personality!

First off, I have super short nails. I can't stand having them longer than my actual finger. I cut them every chance I get. Not only because I like the way it looks and feels, but it's also useful when playing the guitar...when I actually get around to playing these days. Anyways...they come super long so I was able cut them in half and use them even longer!! Now these little suckers were a bit tricky. They have a plastic peeling cover on top and on the back, so it became a little difficult to actually peel them off. They also feel like they are going to peel off, but they haven't yet. I'm still uncertain how I feel about these...I guess time will tell once I see how long they last. The corners feel like they are going to come up. I did try to put a clear coat of polish on top to see if that helped but it ended up making a huge mess and making the strip come off! Let me know if you have used these before and have any tips for me!

UPDATE: Today these nail strips seem like they have adhered to my nails a lot better! I did have one section peel off some where the edge rolled up, but so far they are nice! I will update on how long they last soon!
