Nail Of The Day: Meadham Kirchhoff Nail Wraps

I purchased these from Topshop for £7.00 a while ago and was having a clear out of my room when I found these. I decided to give them a go and was very pleased with how they turned out (initially!) 


 Anyway, these Nail Rock 'Nail Wraps' were featured in Meadham Kirchhoff's Spring fashion show so I thought that was cool! I decided on this design rather than another one of Nail Rock's many other designs because these were just too darn cute (with the exception of the lady parts!)

This is what you will receive along with a leaflet. 
- Acetone Wipe
- Nail Wraps
- Buffer / Nail file & Orange Stick

^Simplified Instructions^ 
(More detailed instructions in the leaflet inside)

1. File nail edges until they are in the shape you desire. 
Buff nail surfaces.

2. Wipe nails with the 'Nail Preparation Wipe' which contains acetone. This will remove any residue that may be on nails.

3. Then, you choose the wrap that fits the nail best and align with the cuticle. Then press the nail wrap in place starting at the cuticle (in order to avoid air bubbles!!) These can be cut if needed.



This is how they turned out! I was very pleased with them after I'd finished however, after about 1 hour, they started to peel. I know this was probably due to my application but to be honest, I won't be repurchasing any nail wraps because I think simply painting my nails is far less hassle!

Tell me what you think and if you have any tips for application.
Thanks for reading. xoxo
