Silver Lightning

For this design  I used Minx nail apps in Silver Lightning:

As you can see, my nails are very short but I still had problems with the apps bunching and wrinkling.  I heated the apps on a lamp before apply and I found that it helped during application, but about three hours later new wrinkles had appeared.

Bottom line: I was very disappointed by this professional product.  I’m sure I’d have to use acrylic or gel to “flatten out” my nails in order for them to look any better.

I’ll try to remember to post an update later about how long they stayed on and how well the apps held up.

UPDATE: After three days the nails looked terrible and I simply peeled off the app.  The edges were worn away and tattered.  Yuck!
