I did a lot better this time in that I didn't get quite as much glue all over my fingers, but I did get just as much bubbling...I'm not sure how to get prevent that, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. These particular nails are medium length and square shaped. I like the length, but I prefer a rounder shape and will probably file them when I file the design off. I really like the zebra print design, though - it's one of those designs that I would love to be able to do myself. It was easy to find the right size nails for my fingers and to apply them straight, and I think they look fairly natural aside from all the bubbling.
Now on to some blog-related manners...I'll be starting school this Thursday. Unfortunately, this means I probably won't be able to post every single day anymore, and I will be doing significantly less commenting on other blogs - I'll have homework, volunteering, extracurriculars, and college applications (which I should have already started) to attend to. However, I will still be posting several times a week, and occasionally I may even post every day of a week - it will all depend on how busy I am in a given week. Also, you'll probably be seeing more layering manis, which I hope you don't mind. :) Anyway, that's all for today! Have a great rest of the weekend!

that is actually very smart to let them grow out and them file off the part you don't want and polish over it. yay
ReplyDeletetell me how the removal of these nails went.
i hate hate hate removing false nails
Smita- I'm not entirely comfortable wearing fake nails either...mostly because they're so long compared to my usual nubbins. :)
ReplyDeleteInga- LOL, I'm not QUITE that good. :D And I will still be around this week, just not as much.
shortnails- Haha, that's what I thought. :) I hate removing false nails, too. That's part of the reason I waited to use these...I'm not looking forward to it.
Super cute! Let us know how removal is!
ReplyDeleteAurora's Nails- Thanks, and I definitely will!
ReplyDeleteThe bubbling is air underneath the nail - firm pressure over the area will minimize the bubbles. And to take them off, Nailene has a great product for that - it comes in a container that you dip your finger right into, with brushes inside. The nail completely dissolves! Genius!
ReplyDeleteI realize that the bubbling is air under the nail, and I did apply firm
ReplyDeletepressure, but it didn't seem to help. I didn't know Nailene had a product
for removing false nails, though, so that's good to know! I just used a
glass bowl filled with acetone.
