Review: Primark Polkadot Nails Wraps

I bought these nails wraps from Primark back in February for £1, I said I would review them soon but I forgot...They have been in my nail polish box for ages and I remembered them a couple of days ago so I thought I would review them (better late than never!). 

I tried them a few days ago (standing up in the kitchen - as you do) and I was really surprised at how easy and quick they are to apply. You just peel the 'nail polish' stickers off the paper and place them on your nails, smooth them down and file off the excess! How easy is that! And obviously they are stickers so there is no need to wait for them to dry - which is the part I hate most about painting my nails. Some of the stickers were too big for my nails so I had to cut a couple to make them fit but overall, they were fanastic - now for the disappointing part.

I applied these on Thursday and I added a small amount of my Seche Vite topcoat to the tips (it doesn't say to do this in the instructions) as even after a couple of hours the stickers did start to peel away from the tips of my nails slightly. After going about my day, typing, typing, typing, cleaning etc, I noticed that some of the stickers were 'chipping' or peeling away and flaking off - this is only after about 5/6 hours! After one day they had really worn away from the tips (as you may be able to see from the photograph above) on five nails. 

Overall, a great idea but in practise it isn't! They did apply super quickly and easily and there is no waiting. They also looked great in my opinion, like something from Cath Kidston! And they were only £1. But the longevity was very poor, they only lasted one day and they started peeling and catching on things before then. I think they would be great if you had a party to go to or an evening meal but anything that is longer than one day and they will look awful!
