Christmas Mani With Jamberry Nails

I am in LOVE with these nails wraps!




They were actually a lot easier to apply than I expected. I watched a few videos of people applying them and it did look really easy, but things like this are often too good to be true, so of course I was a bit skeptical.

I did mostly what the 'official' application process says.
Below I have copy and pasted the official application process, and wrote underneath each line what I did differently.

Clean unpolished nails with alcohol wipe and push back the cuticles.
I used nail polish remover instead.
Match nail (finger or toe) to the nail wrap that best fits.
I only had one size, luckily it fit my ring finger.
Peel off nail wrap and warm with a mini heater or blow-dryer for 3-5 seconds or until soft and flexible.
I used a little space heater instead of these. I also held the wrap with tweezers and applied it with them. There was enough extra at the end I didn't really 'need' to do this but this might be easier for some, especially if you've got long nails.
When warm, press the wrap onto the nail. Apply firm pressure around edges to adhere the wrap to the nail. Use rubber cuticle pusher to seal the wrap around the base of the cuticle.
I also used a rubber cuticle pusher to push out a few air bubbles.
Trim the top with scissors and file off remaining wrap using a downward motion to remove excess.
Be careful not to pull the wrap off of your nail while cutting. Make sure you have good scissors.
Apply heat and pressure to the wrap again until it is bonded to the nail.

So far I love these nail wraps! Below are pictures taken right after I finished my nails, so it's really messy looking. The polish I used is Sugar Sugar by Sinfulcolors.





These are about 5 days after applying the Jamberry. No difference, except my fingers are cleaner.





Hope you enjoyed my post! ❤
