So I was moderately
impressed with the NCLA Los Angeles nail wraps I reviewed a few weeks ago but
after trying Sally Hansen's I am now extremely impressed. My mom let me use two of her Sally Hansen
nail wraps which matched a dress I wore to a dance. I was expecting something similar to NCLA's....oh
was I wrong. I guess sometimes you
really do get what you pay for.
I used these in the
shade 480 I Love Lacey which is honestly a very beautiful pattern and did match
my dress very well. My issue was with
the application and the longevity.
Because I put these on when I went home and therefore didn't have my
good camera I couldn't take these pictures until 4 days after application and
the wraps were already starting to chip at the end of my nail. NCLA's lasted over a week without any
chipping at all and that was even after washing dishes and cleaning my
apartment. As far as application these
were much flimsier than NCLA's so I had a hard time controlling them in order
to line them up over my nail. They were also much larger meaning they went over
my nail and onto my skin on both sides making it very hard to clean up the
edges, while NCLA's fit perfectly on my nail. I would never buy these over
NCLA's because of quality and longevity, the frustration just isn't worth it.
My mom will be going to a nail wrap party, I think Jamberry, so look forward to
a review of those as well.
