ImPRESS False Nails

I have always loved using false nails but never found a brand that i feel actually stay on for the time length they say they do, so was willing to try these out. I received them in my Leeds Blogger Meet Up goodie bag.

The packet i received were the french tips ones D010 Rock It, however i know that you can paint over them with your colour of choice well if you fancy a change.

Application is simple. All you have to do is pick the correct size for you nail, pull the sticky tab off the back and press it onto your nail. Easy right? Well, i did have a little struggle getting my second nail on. For some reason it just refused to stick. I'm not sure if its the false nail or my nail. This was something i easily resolved with some nail glue i had lying around. After i finished my first hand i struggled to pull of the tabs with the hand that had the falsies on. I eventually managed it.
The set does come with a "prep pad" which unfortunately isn't in English so I'm not 100% sure what it does but I'm guessing it strips the oils from your nails. Sadly, i was too eagar to apply the nails so only saw this after.

After i applied them i felt the tips were a little scratchy, but that was easily buffed out. They aren't the most natural looking nails but they do look nice. I have had them on for around 1 hour and they are still very stuck on. The box says they last around 1 week so i am certainly going to put this to the test and put an update.
