Influenster: imPRESS Manicure Canada Voxbox

No Comments »

As I'm typing this... I am wearing the imPress Manicure nails by Broadway Nails. I got these in the latest Voxbox from Influenster! I have received these before in a previous voxbox, but hadnt really given it a second thought to use because I wasn't a fan of stick on nails. My experience with the essie ones weren't that great.


In the box there was two packages. They aren't the prints I would normally get, as I would prefer solids and keeping it safe. But out of the two, I'd say I liked the zebra print better. 


I have to admit, the application was a breeze... It took me less than five minutes to get them all done. I liked that they provided you with a lot of the nails at various different sizes to accommodate those with different nail beds. But I'm afraid that's about all that I love.


They felt too plasticy and bulky on my fingers. I made the mistake of putting them on right before bed and by morning two of them had fell off already. Good thing for those extras.

I think these are really good quality stick on nails but because I personally am not a fan of stuck on stuff... I would not go out and buy these myself. Even if they are better than Essie.

EDIT. Within an hour of typing all this, two  more nails have fallen off. I really don't think they're durable for day to day use. These are probably more appropriate for special outings. 

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes :)

I got more mail today :) who doesn't love that? Well, I've been expecting this one since there was already so many people online posting about it and people on the west coast always get it later than those on the east coast. 

I was really excited to open this up. It is a scented nail polish that comes in an array for smells. The one I recieved is called Italian Leather. While I was hoping for a red, (I have too much though) I wasn't disappointed with the color. It is a greyish color with a slight glitter to it. 


However, it is definitely not a color I would pick up for myself at the store. But I still like the concept! I probably will try some of the other colors, as I am really interested in Autumn Spice and Boredeaux

Last month I bought a bunch of OPIs. While most of the colors were some sort of red in either a slightly didn't shade or tint or had shimmers. This was one of the few non reds. It also turned out to be my favorite color of the bunch. As its name refers, its a bronze color with a nice shimmer to it.


I applied OPI natural base coat and top coat that I finally got from my friend for my Christmas present.
What made me so happy with this bottle was it only took two coats. I love my OPI brushes as they have big and flat enough brush that application is flawless. And I finally started to get a better rhythm of how to apply my nail polishes. Now if only my left handed application was as good as my right.
