KISS imPRESS No Glue Mani Press On Nails, Color, 'Point Pink', Pink, Short Size, Squoval Shape, Includes 30 Nails, Prep Pad, Instructions Sheet, 1 Manicure Stick, 1 Mini File

Update: I love these nails!!! I wore them for four (4) weeks, not one lifted and I'm sure I could have worn them another couple of weeks having the same clean, shiny look as when originally applied. Again, I'm stunned. The only reason I removed them was to check on my natural nails. I let my natural nails rest a day and now I've just applied a second set. I'll let you know if this was a fluke or something I can now count on.Original: I had my nails done professionally for 25+ years and then I stopped for 10 years to give my natural nails a break. A few weeks ago, I decided to try do-it-yourself nails. I started with a press-on nail that required glue. I did ok but a couple of the nails came off a few times and had to be re-glued.....messy. Then I saw the Kiss Impress no glue option and for my second try, thought I'd give them a shot. I was very skeptical to say the least. As of this writing, I am going into my third week and not one nail has lifted or even looks like it is coming off. They look like my own nails and are pretty and shiny everyday unlike when I polish my nails myself (chipping, dulling, etc). I am stunned! Also, I love this color, Point Pink. It goes with my skin tone perfectly. Not beige, not too pink. I've never found the right color in a pale pink in any polish to date. So far I'm thrilled and have re-ordered more to have them on hand.

I am thoroughly impressed with these nails. I usually get my nails done monthly but did not have time, so I thought, "Let's buy these, as I can put these on while on my way to the party." I thought these would stay on for 1-2 days, but I was wrong. It has been almost a week, and these nails are still fully attached to the natural nail. Let me also mention this: I do all my house chores, but these nails still fully attached. I will stop going to the nail salon and start buying these. I can change these every week, but they are still less expensive than the salon nails.

I use my hands and lot so do not take the time to get regular manicures but only for special events. However those can get expensive and my natural nails are so short. So I got into the world of press on's and have been so im-pressed (pun intended) lol.I have been in a couple weddings recently and bought this same set both times. The color is beautiful. I got a lot of compliments. I wouldn't say they last very long. The first time maybe almost a week before I lost a nail. The second time next day after the wedding I lost a thumb. But they were under $10 and lasted for the event which is all I really needed. So I cannot complain. You need to soak them off if you just start tearing them off you will damage your nail. So the adhesive is pretty good overall.

Okay, I have tried a TON of press-on and glue on nails before ranging from custom ones on Etsy with all of the bling and things, to cheap plastic dollar store ones. I have had these on for 72 hours no, and these are solidly above-average. I got them for Valentine's day, as I was too lazy to do my own gel and my nails were still slightly brittle from the last removal. I have never used the sticky pads to put on nails before. I'm usually a ride-or-die Nailene nail glue kind of girl, but I really wanted to see what these were like since I have seen them EVERYWHERE.LOOKS:They look really pretty, honestly. This pink color is extremely comparable to OPI's Bubble Bath and it's a super great neutral that works with tons of different skin tones. The shape is average, they are extremely 90's squoval type but SUPER easy to file down without cracking the polish or losing shine on the nail. I personally filed off the little edge bits where it looks like the tab came off and didn't see any splitting or anything. I also tapered the edges a little bit more inward toward the nail to make my fingers look more slender.Shape, color, and shine are all stellar. They have a slight bit of thickness that don't make them look thin and plastic like cheaper nails usually do. The length is also nice - it isn't super short but a very classy length, imo. I can type without them getting in the way, I can pick things up without my fingers hurting or feeling like my nails are going to rip off, I can pick a credit card up off a flat surface. Great length.FUNCTIONALITY:Putting them on literally took me 20 minutes which is NOTHING when it comes to press-ons. I prepped by buffing my nail plate with my own professional grade buffer, washing my hands, adding a dehydrator (you can get one on amazon, super cheap!), and then placing on the nails by aligning them flush to the cuticle and then pressing down at an angle like shown in the little graphic on the package. It comes with a cuticle stick and a tiny, flimsy "file" but it doesn't really work so I would suggest having your own prep stuff.They did stick down pretty immediately, and strongly at that. If you have trouble placing your nails right the first time, be careful because it is HARD to get them off once they are down. I did see that the sticky tab did not start all the way at the cuticle which I imagine was to make it less lifted off the cuticle, but it still slightly lifts and because the underneath is sticky, your hair will get stuck in it (pictured last). I don't mind it too much but it is slightly inconvenient if you touch your hair a lot like I do. Next time I get these, I'm going to see if adding some nail glue to just the cuticle area will help fill that gap and reduce the lifting.The sticky tab does run up to the tip of the nail, so if your natural nails are not very long, there will be exposed stickiness under the nail. It doesn't bother much or get stuck to things, but lint and dirt will get stuck on it (pictured third). Not a big deal to me.OVERALL:All of my nails are still on 72 hours later, and I teach high school. I work with my hands and wash them CONSTANTLY. I also cook regularly and take hot ass showers. They are STILL perfectly intact and have not budged a bit. No extra lifting since day one, it's still the same amount of lifting that is slightly annoying but not terrible. I have gotten tons of compliments, and they have retained their shape and shine without any extra top coat or anything of that sort. I really like them for the price that they are at and definitely plan on purchasing more. I would HIGHLY recommend these if you are in a pinch for cute nails that are functional and can last at least a few days. They don't seem to be going anywhere yet, so I do have hopes that they stay on for the whole week.TLDR but read. the whole thing for important details:Pros: cute color, good length, stick well, shapable, awesome priceCons: slight lift, catch lint, the shape it comes in isn't ideal

Impress makes my favorite press on nails. The nails are not too thick, making them more natural looking. They come in different lengths and shapes in many colors. I started with glue-on nails. They will pop off, so you have to be prepared with a little tube of glue when you're out. I wasn't sure how the adhesive would work, but I was so pleasantly surprised. I tried a different brand before with adhesive that you have to take off of a piece of plastic and put on your nails first, then add the nail itself. impress takes that step out by having the adhesive already on the nail. Once you know your sizes, you can prep your nails and have these on in less than 10 minutes. I can easily wear these for two weeks without any nails coming off. I do all of my own housework, shower, wash my hair, and wash my hands several times a day. I have no problem at all with the adhesive. The variety has something to suit everyone. My old ridgy nail look nice again!
