I cant remember the last time i hated a product this much, seriously I wish I can get by $20 back! Ok so before I tell and show you why this product gets zero love from me let me clarify that I am an Essie fan! out of the hundred of bottle of nail polish I buy a year 90% are Essie. They really make the some of the most unique and beautiful colors! Now back to the why I hate these sleek stick so much...
When I opened the package of Sleek Sticks there are 18 appliqués on a sheet of plastic, also in the little package is a mini nail file, instructions for application and removal and a thin hard plastic tool which you can use to remove excess sticker after applying them to your nails. There are 9 different sizes of appliques (2 of each size) in the package so it's pretty easy to find one that will fit each nail perfectly, unless you have retarted nail shape like mines. None of the shapes really fit perfectly and you can forget about trimming it, as careful as I tried to be they just got all wrinkly and looked worse than before.
In conclusion they looked OK if you where standing a few feet away from me, but up close they looked really bad. they looked smudged and the corners started peeling of after I washed my hand a few times. they also did not feel comfortable, think when you first put on acrylic nails that heavy feeling. And forget about discreetly peeling them off in public they leave a sticky gunk of sticky glue on you nails that annoyed me to the point of stopping in a CVS for nail polish remover because I couldn't wait to get home.
This is my personal experience, i'm sure there are a lot of succesful stories out there with these nail sticks. The only positive I can say is that the designs on the nail look super cute on the packaging ;)
Good Luck! Xxx
