Kalolary 12 Sheets Christmas Nail Polish Strips - Self-Adhesive Snowflake Snowman Tree Deer Nail Art Stickers with Nail File | Holiday Party Manicure DIY Nail Decorations

Let’s address the elephant in the room. We are talking about inexpensive nail stickers. We are talking less than a buck a sheet. Keep that in mind. My review has this in mind when I rate and review this product. The review is based on this product alone and not compared to something like Jamberry or a higher end wrap.Also, understand that there are only a few sizes to choose from. Expect to have to trim these to get the correct fit.With this in mind, I gave this 5 stars because the stickers met my expectations but the patterns exceeded my expectations. I got several compliments of how cute they were and a lot of surprise reactions when they heard that I was wearing nail stickers.If this is your first time using nail stickers, don’t let this first experience be your final decision to use them. There is a bit a learning curve. For that reason, I suggest you just get some inexpensive ones that you don’t mind messing up a bit.For best results, I lay down a clear base coat . These stay on for several days. The sticker part is rough on my nails and makes them brittle so I solved that by laying down a base coat first. Of course, allow the base coat to dry.Cut around the bottom of the sticker to get a general idea if it will fit. Don’t cut around the top or you will struggle to find an edge to lift off the sticker. It is better to go too small than too large, as it will stick to the skin on the sides of the nail and will start coming off. Try not to get too close to the cuticle, as, again, it will stick to it and make it come off sooner. Follow the directions for filing off the excess sticker. I found watching a couple YouTube videos helped.Finally, do not add a top coat. You may be tempted. Initially you will think this is a good idea but the stickers will develop little bubbles after a few minutes. I’m not sure why but it does.And you’re all finished! Super cute and easy. Btw, you can shower and even wash a few dishes. If you use a scrubber while washing, you’ll notice some color will come off at the tip. The shower doesn’t affect the stickers. I have never left them submerged more than it takes to put my hands in the water and pull out a dish.I hope this review helps and I hope you enjoy your fun and easy manicure. ❤️
