Following on from my last post, I decided to give nail polish strips a go... my verdict... not bad at all! At first it was a little tricky getting the hang of sticking them on, but by the time I got around to my second hand I found it much easier. They lasted 3-4 days before I decided to peel them off, they easily had a couple more days in them but I needed a change. I'm not sure whether it was just my imagination or not, but one thing I did notice was that when I pulled them off, my nails were longer and stronger, and haven't broken since (I usually break at least one nail a day). I would definitely use them again! 

I think these strips are a great alternative to nail varnish, especially for those people like me whose nail polish starts chipping away within hours of applying.

I love that nail art has moved past the "long, tacky, fake nail" stereotype and has developed into a nice little fashion inspired trend. Whether it's multi-coloured french or jewel encrusted nails, let your nails be the canvas and create your very own masterpiece...

        

        

        

        

        

Luckily for those of us who ain't no Picasso, you can actually buy pre painted stick ons... www.sabaccessories.com have an extremely pretty range... or of course, just make an appointment with your local nail lady. 

Happy painting lovers...

Love Always
