Easy to use
I like how they look. Almost matches my natural nail bed color, easy to use, just had to file down a bit and probably should have filed down the tips more since they look a bit wide on my fingers but didn’t have time. I’d purchase again.Update 3/25/24: these never fail to just make me feel a little more put together and pretty. I order them regularly. I’ve picked up a couple tricks along the way since I first began using these press ons. As a disclaimer I’m just a complete amateur who’s tried out YouTube’s hacks on these press on nails and want to share if it can help out someone who’s interested in experimenting with these fun sticker press ons.1. To avoid your hair getting caught in these press on nails - you have to tuck them under the cuticle skin (idk if that’s the correct term). And to do that you have to push back the skin growing on your nail. Be gentle. If you see in my previous pictures (the first 2 I uploaded from last year) I actually snipped my cuticles thinking it would look neater but then I had a space between the press on nail and my cuticle so my hair would get stuck there —was a total noob move lol.2. If you want the press ons to last longer than a couple days try experimenting with nail glues in addition to the sticky adhesive these press ons already come with. It’s helped my nails last for 2 weeks. What works for me are the glues with a wand (kinda looks like nail polish) vs the nail glue tubes, it’s just easier for me to apply.Nail prep is important to secure the press ons. Some people file down the nail bed to “roughen it up”, I tried that but stop doing that since I felt it thinned my nails too much overtime. Instead I use a nail strengthener as a base (some people use a nail primer too but I opt out of that). I feel having a layer below the glue helps add a tiny bit of protection to my nail rather than applying glue directly on a bare nail. Then I wipe the nail down with alcohol to get rid of oils. I then polish nail glue on. I add full coverage of glue on the nail, making sure the edges are covered in glue too to create a better seal and helps avoid the press on nail from lifting off my real nail. Sometimes I add glue under the press on nail too if I have time. Then I remove the plastic from the press on so that the sticky part is exposed and then I gently push down the press on nail under the cuticle and hold it.3. To avoid getting bubbles from nail glues (that can usually be easily seen with sheer colors like these press ons) it’s important to fully cover the nail with it —I still get air bubbles and I try to push rhe air bubbles out to the sides. As much as possible you’d want to get rid of air bubbles otherwise water can linger in there and may cause bacterial growth.4. If you’re in a bit of a time crunch getting ready to go out and don’t have time for adding glue.Before applying these on, I’ve found it’s best to have already gotten ready/dressed/hair/make up already done, house chores done—basically won’t need to wash my hands or lift anything heavy anymore for at least an hour (usually during a commute is a great way to let them cure).Super basic prep is cutting your nails, make sure the edges are cut too so they don’t stick out. Don’t cut them too short so that there’sstill some nail length for the press on nail to adhere to. Wash your hands to soften up the cuticles a bit, then push them back. Wipe the nails down with alcohol (or you can use the little wipey that comes in the box) then stick them on. Don’t let water get on them for at least an hour. With a quick prep like this I’d probably only get 1-3 days wear and would bring the nail kit for extra nails and carry nail glue in case they fall out.

No more nail salon
I stopped doing acrylic and gel nails because they absolutely ruined my nails. I’ve been using these for years. If you do the prep correctly, they will stay on for weeks. They are so easy and fun to put on and they look better than even my acrylic or gel nails. They are sooooo easy to take off and there is no damage to my nails.

Beautiful
They look great. Much cheaper than going to the salon and easy to apply. The adhesive works great. Mine lasted a week. Would have lasted longer if I wasted messing in aquatics that week. Wear rubber gloves and don't skip cleaning your nails.

Nice, but I had to trim to get round look
They are nice, but I prefer rounded edges, and these are a straight cut; therefore, I had to clip the nails before putting them on. They were easy to shape with standard nail clippers. I wore them to a wedding, and they held the Sally Hansen nail polish color well. However, 2 of the press-on nails fell off as I was trying to put them on, and both thumb press on nails came off before the wedding was over. I like them enough to purchase again, I just hope they stay on better. I am not used to wearing press-on nails, and I did use the pad to clean my nails before putting them on. Standard Emory boards worked well when shaping, but so did the little Emory board that came with the nails.

Absolutely beautiful!
I’m used to paying $60+ for a gel mani, but couldn’t get an appointment and tried these out of desperation. Holy cow, I’m never going back to the salon! They take literally five minutes to apply, start to finish. And they last for weeks! The results are stunning, and the best part is there’s so many extra nails in the package that I can get two manicures out of it. No glue, no mess…you can even throw a couple loose ones in your wallet to have in case one falls off (which likely won’t happen, but yardwork is hell, lol). I get more compliments on these than I ever did with my “natural” nails.

Old nail, lost sticky
These must be a packages as I use KISS press in nails all the time, I know how to prep my nails and usually get 2+ weeks before I take them off. I put these on today and have already had 2 pop off. The adhesive is not as stick as it usually is!!!!!! Very mad I waisted my money on these!

They DID last a week
I wanted to jazz up my nails for my daughters baby shower. I had little expectation but was SO surprised. I took the advice of another reviewer and put these on the night before, right before I went to bed. I think this is a crucial step. I tried to use these another time without doing that and they didn't last a week. There is something about letting them adhere all night long, with no stress on the nail, that helps it stay on longer. Make sure you push down really well for a minute or so. I used an empty pill bottle to store the leftover nails and I just label it. I did not baby these nails. I did all my normal housework all week. I guess you could say I'm ImPRESSed.

Great look, poor adhesion
Nice looking french nails, but less than 24 hours later I lost 5 of the 10 on various fingers due to poor adhesion. I followed the directions to get a clean nail and prepped it with the alcohol wipe as directed.I purchased a different look (same brand) from a local store that has the "Improved Adhesive" label and they were far more durable. I will only purchase an Impress box with that label going forward.
