The Artist - 8398

I've had three sets of these this far. One was totally awesome and lasted a super long time. The next was also pretty good but they had some patterns on them that were sort of annoying for shorter nails (the alien/UFO set a lot of the patterns are positioned directly in the middle so if you have short nails it's going to get cut off unless you pre-trim).

The most recent set (the one with the black and white faces) was AWFUL. I didn't realize it was matte when I ordered it so that's on me. They are soooo much thicker than the glossy ones. They also didn't seem to cure correctly even though I normally do to cycles of UV an hour or two apart. They started falling off day two and sticking to my hair. Ugggh.

These are great! I'm very hard on nails, I typically chip a gel manicure from the salon in a few days. These last at least 2 weeks for me and don't totally destroy my nails when I remove them (they do cause a little damage but I just peel them off, I'm sure there's a better way to remove). I'm on my 3rd set of this brand and all have been great. My current set is on the second week and still perfect, even after a 3 day backpacking trip last weekend. Cannot recommend these enough!!

Very cute design. Gel turned very hard and lasted longer than gel from a salon. It took some work to get them off but I was also making sure not to damage my nails. Worth the effort given the longevity and the fair price. Highly recommend.

Love how long these gel strips have lasted after gardening and cleaning.

I love Dani and Toni but these are a special type i guess for shorter nails. I like the ones for long nails as I cut 1 in half and use it on 2 nails. These were cute tho
