imPRESS Press-On Manicure Review

Ever since I first saw imPress nails in Boots, I knew I wanted them. But I'm a novice when it comes to false nails. I struggle to do my every day tasks when I'm wearing them so I didn't want to spend the money on them. So when I was given the chance to sample them, I couldn't say no.

 I absolutely love the packaging. Even my sister says  it's possibly one of the coolest things she's ever seen. The nails are housed in a sturdy nail polish bottle and the bottle comes with 24 nail covers in 12 different sizes so you're bound to find a nail to fit yours. The beauty of these is that you don't glue them on. You simple peel the tab off the back, push them up to the cuticle, hold for about 5 seconds and tada, beautiful nails in an instant.  

 I was sent the colour 190 Call My Agent* which is the most beautiful, true red I've ever seen. I love this colour because it's great to wear with anything and I can see myself getting a use out of these nails. The whole stick on effect only lasts once. Once you've peeled off the sticker, applied them and then used them, you can't use them as press ons again. But you can use them as normal false nails which is good enough for me!

They last a really long time - up to seven days. The pictures above are the nails are 4 days and they were still going strong. Only one nail started to fall off and I'm guessing that's because when I first applied them, I started fiddling around with them. But a little bit of nail glue and they're as good as new again.

I really love these and I'm a true convert. I can see myself buying more packs. I'm especially interested in Rock It, Estatic Cling, TGIF and Totally Busted. 

You can see more colours and designs here and these are available from Boots and Superdrug for £7.99 or £8.99 depending on the design you choose.

QUEEN'S JUBILEE: Elegant Touch LE Pretty Lizzie Union Jack False Nails

The Queen's Jubilee is just around the corner and to celebrate, Elegant Touch have brought out these beautiful limited edition nails!

 Inspired by the Union Jack these nails are more girly as they're pink and sparkly! These nails are in the design Pretty Lizzy and the great thing about the nails is that they come in a wide range of different sizes so there's barely any need to cut them down to size.

 They're also the quickest and easiest nails to apply that I've ever come across. I am not sure how long they last as I've only just applied them in time for the Jubilee but Elegant Touch claim that they last for up to 7 days - and I can definitely see that they will. Once applied you cannot get these babies on, they're very well applied. All you have to do is apply a tiny bit of glue to your nails, press the false nail onto the nail for about 5 seconds and wella! Sorted.

You can see from the image above how beautiful they are. I'm truly in love!

These are available from Tesco for just £7.50 each.

How are you celebrating the Jubilee? Have you tried these nails before?
