I have very flimsy, soft nails which peel and rip easily. When I first heard about these I was very eager to try them (after all, they are a nail SHIELD). Application was fussy but not...

I bought 2 packs of these as they seemed like a good idea. I'm not supposed to wear nail polish at my work place but my nails needed a chance to grow. I tried them on my left hand for one day and...

I wasn't super excited about purchasing these, they were just cheap and I figured I'd give them a shot. My nails split and peel terribly and I tend to peel off polish which rips layers from the...

Does it take a bit of patience and practice to put these on? Yes. But ladies, give them a chance. I was applying the Salon Effects, but the designs were a little much for me, so I gave these a...

Followed the directions, prepped my nails properly, but the product came off within hours. Don't throw your money away on this product!

Should've come to MakeupAlley first and read the reviews! I didn't, and made the mistake of trying this worthless product. Applied them on Monday, and here on Wednesday half have already peeled...

This is so bad it prompted me to write my first review. I use and love the Salon Effects, so I thought the Nail Shield would be similar. Nope. First, the sizes are way off. They come with more...

Ugh...chalk this one up to experience. They sounded like a good idea at the time. I keep some sort of polish on my nails at all time and I thought this would buy me some extra time between mani's...

Maybe I'm utterly incompetent but I couldn't get thesr to stick for a minute, let alone 14 days. They are just not sticky enough, I pushed, I pressed and it came right off. Utter waste of $5 :(...

I am surprised at all the comments about the product being bad and peeling off the nails. They've stuck to my nails with no problems - I think the key is dry nails to start, and to smooth the...

These are pretty much just nail stickers. I doubt they would last a full 14 days, but you never know. I was able to get a week's worth of wear out of them before I took them off, because I was...

This is a terrible product. Not even an hour after I applied the nail strips, they started splitting and coming off. Its really irritating that I wasted 5 bucks on this crap.

I wasn't at all impressed by this product. While the application was a breeze, the nail treatment chipped and didn't stay on very well [and I made sure to prep my nails thoroughly beforehand]....
