Hello there lovely readers!
Now I'm sure that it'll come as no
surprise when I tell you that when it comes to nails, polish is my
one true love! Those little bottles of prettiness just make me happy,
you know how Scrooge McDuck has a huge vault of his moolah that he
likes to dive into & swim around in? I have a similar recurring
dream except instead of coins its endless bottles of polish!
However there are other quick &
easy ways of getting fab looking nails nowadays, one such being nail
wraps. I find myself having accumulated quite a few different ones
lately so decided to on occasion give the polish a miss & try a
nail wrap instead. The ones I have to share with you today are the
OPI Pure Lacquer Nail Apps which I found on sale in Fenwicks &
could resist picking up.
The thing that makes these particular nail wraps/appliqués differ from others out there is that they are in fact made from 100% nail lacquer, which means they are super easy to remove with a bit of polish remover. There also seem to be a nice range of pretty designs to choose from, this particular oriental red dragon design which I just love was a part of their James Bond Skyfall collection I believe.
Each pack comes with 16 appliqués in
different sizes so finding an ideal match isn't too problematic
though you can always trim them down to accommodate the size of your
nail.
Each applique comes with an attached
tab which makes for easy gripping when peeling off the back &
applying on to the nail
I found that these were very delicate
compared to other nail wraps as you can probably tell just by looking
how flimsy they are, therefore a bit more attention is required when
applying & I definitely need to practice my nail wrap
application!
As I was saying...will most definitely
work on my nail wrap technique! Haha! I was a wee bit
too vigourous with a few & ended up tearing them a tad however I
managed to get all 10 nails done without too much drama & was
pretty happy with the finished result.
Especially loving the glossy finish &
pretty design! Compared to other nail wraps I've tried so far, after
getting past the initial fiddly application, I really do like these
ones, especially with their easy removal & there are some really gorgeous designs to have fun with. The OPI Pure Lacquer Nail
Apps retail for around £13 which is a wee bit pricey in my opinion
however they can also be found on Amazon for a fraction of the price
so are worth checking out!
Thanks for reading dolls! Are you a fan
of nail wraps?
Lotsa love to ya!
