imPress Press On Manicure

What do you think of when someone says something about press on nails?

This is what I think about- Lee Press On Nails-

The little adhesive stickers… the super fast application and wait time from nubby to fab, but let’s face it, the press on nail is a little outdated. Or at least to me it is.

So in my Influenster Holiday Vox Box, was a set of imPress Press on nails. Fully manicured, many different styles, some creative, some just a nice color.

Let’s start with the cons first, then you can decided from there whether these are for you:

• Poor packaging- Once you get the little bottle out of the box, ask Jesus to hold your mule because it was not easy to open. You are supposed to start off by twisting the little bottle cap off, which was a chore. From there, you open from the side and lift open.
• Nail size selection- again, poor. There was no nail that fit my thumb, and these are made more so for people with narrow nail beds.
• Removing adhesive- another chore, another headache. The adhesive is hard to peel, and some nails were damaged at the area towards the cuticle trying to peel them off.
• Last 7 days? Not me. But I think demographically wise, these were not meant to be made for me either. You cannot wash dishes, comb hair, and the other 773323 things I do in 7 days in these nails. These are not housewife friendly nails.

And the pros:

• Easy to apply- they stick right on and initially stay there
• Shade selection- there are tons of solid colors and also lots of other designs such as the airbrushed look, crackle, and animal print. There are plenty of work safe solid shades as well.
• Easy to remove- they pop right off with no damage to your natural nail.

For me, if not for the fact that the nails are too small for my nailbed, I would buy them more often. But there is no point to wearing false nails in which your nails are showing.
