So let's get to it!
A few months ago, all my favorite stylish ladies started sporting these amazing manicures and I could NOT figure out how they found the time to go to the nail salon and sit and sit and sit while a nail polish artist applied intricate designs to each of their precious finger nails.
Aha! Not professionally applied at all! They were, of course, Jamberry nail wraps, and I became obsessed with them. One day I was ogling someone's nails on Instagram and she was like "hey, why don't I send you some to try?" to which I replied "Yes, that is my question exactly. Why DON'T you send me some???." So she did. Her name is Lindsey. Here is her shop.
See how long each "sticker" is? You can cover 36 nails with just one sheet of wraps by cutting them in half. That's a lot of nails!

Left hand after one week of heavy wear:
p.s. in these photos you can also sort of see my novena bracelet from my friend Shannon's store Organic Mama's Shop. I'll post more pics and review AND a coupon code for that on a different day, but I don't wanna become "that blog that is always going on about things we should buy" so I'll give you a teeny breather before I launch into that. Bueno? Bueno.
And the post 1 week shot of my right hand:
By day 7 you can tell the wraps aren't freshly finished but seriously- it was the first time I had ever applied them, I had to put these on with my left hand (I'm right handed) and then I scraped encrusted goo (goo can too be encrusted! You know...when it's totally encrusted and then you let it soak overnight and then you wake up in the morning and the top layer is gooey but the bottom layer is still crusty and you have to get it off somehow? Yeah, that.) off the bottoms of pyrex dishes using my nails as tools.
Keeping all that in mind, I'm gonna call this level of wear an absolute win.
Okay, time for the fun part: free stuff! Lindsey is gonna send a half sheet of these Icy Boysenberry Polka Jamberry nail wraps to one lucky winner.
Enter to win using the handy dandy rafflecopter form and feel free to pepper me with questions in the combox.
Good luck!
a Rafflecopter giveaway
p.s. Lindsey says you can host facebook parties with her and you can win stuff and get hostess exclusives but I don't know all the details there because I'm remarkably unsavvy when it comes to those sorts of things. So get with her and make that happen, okay? Okay.
p.p.s. If you buy 3 sheets of wraps you get one free. Many awesome. Such great.
Prissy Plaid. Yep, that sort of sums it up for me.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the holiday candy cane wraps.
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkins and candy corn are so cute for October!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!
ReplyDeleteJust Peachy!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I've been wanting to try these...I would try China Rose! :)
ReplyDeleteWant these. How much do these $$$?
ReplyDeleteA sheet of the wraps is $15 and will cover 36 nails. So whether you wrap every fingernail or you do just one finger with the wrap and paint the others or any other combo you like, it's still a good deal :)
DeleteYou can do your toes as well! Most people can use the two biggest wraps and do all 10 toes. ;)
DeleteCall me boring, but I like the white tips!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to try these and after your seven day picture, I might just take the plunge. Thank you for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteI love the white tips! Classic and goes with anything.
DeleteWould love to try these! Have always been curious if they were good quality :)
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage chic. :) I've seen youtube videos showing how to apply them, is it as easy as they make it out to be?
ReplyDeleteSilver Floral on Magenta!
ReplyDeleteI'm a terrible nail biter (working on it.), but I thought I'd jump into your combox and say-- you have lovely hands. (Is that weird? To compliment someone's hands?) But seriously. They're beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSo was I! But these helpnme not bite my nails!
DeleteThe sheet music ones look way fun!!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I've been wanting to jump on the jamberry bandwagon! Thanks for the opportunity! So fun! Love the vintage chic and rose gold too! :)
ReplyDeleteJust tried some for the first time last week and I love them!
ReplyDeleteI love the Sugar and Spice one
ReplyDeletevintage chic or rose gold!
ReplyDeleteSilver floral on magenta!
ReplyDeleteI love the Pickled Paisley. I have a thing for paisley and bright. :)
ReplyDeleteRose Gold is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteOoh..Let is Snow!
ReplyDeleteI like Azure Rose. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love their collegiate designs, but I just looked and they don't have one for my school! Grr.
ReplyDeleteThose are really pretty! I love that color!
ReplyDeleteBecause I can never like just one thing, my favourites are: Oh Canada (I'm Canadian, eh), Hockey (because NHL starts next weakfish), Sheet Music ('cause I play a couple instruments and sing), and Vintage Chic (because I like all things vintage and antique). :D
ReplyDeleteWeek-ish...dang auto-correct
Deletelove the autism awareness ones.
ReplyDeleteI love the Vintage Chic pattern.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so pretty!! I need to try these. I love the mint and gold ones!
ReplyDelete"Kiss Me Ombre." I've been wanting to try these for a while but was afraid to take the plunge and spend the money. $15 seemed like a lot for one set of nails but it is awesome to know that you could do your nails 3x with one set.
ReplyDeletePorcelain is always my favorite, but it's not very fall-ish. I wore Jamberry's during our moving process. I never broke a nail when packing, moving, & unpacking. As a bonus, my nails still looked good which gave me a nice boost when I was exhausted. :-)
ReplyDeletemint green chevron is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteI like the mint green chevron and the boysenberry one
ReplyDeleteI just finished preparing 3 pounds of chicken salad, enough pasta salad, macaroni salad , carrot and celery sticks for 50 people, 4 dozen daisy decorated cupcakes and 50 decorated wedding cake cookies for a bridal shower for my daughter last weekend. I would love to win some nail covers to upgrade my nails for the wedding on October 11!
ReplyDeleteSO many awesome designs to choose from! I think I'd pick So Fresh.
ReplyDeleteWow! There's so many! I like the Midnight Celebration and the Rose Gold
ReplyDeletesugar & spice or midnight celebration
ReplyDeleteLove Take Aim and Atlantis. They are all so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI got one of those novena bracelets at Edel! I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love having "done" nails, but these Jamberry nails present two problems for me. 1) I don't have a blow dryer. They just make my hair crazy...sooo... and 2) I have the fattest thumbs in all eternity - they look like toes! IT's insane! I don't think these lovlies would fit over my super wide thumbs.
ANYWAY, these are darling. And I love your blog. And you.
Girl, Madeline (I think that's who it was???) says she uses the ambient heat from her flattening iron to do her jams, so maybe that could work? AND the wide stickers are broad enough for even BIG TOES, so I can promise you golden results on your ginorm thumbs ;)
DeleteAndrea i have big thumbs too. They fit. :)
DeleteI love love the Midnight Celebration...so classy but with some flair!
ReplyDeleteBotanical gardens. Because daisies!
ReplyDeleteSea glass!
ReplyDeleteThe GobbleMeUp turkeys are cute!

ReplyDeleteMan, I am not good at this commenting stuff... I'm liking Everything Nice!
ReplyDeleteSoo cool! Love vintage chic and azure rose - different and lovely!
ReplyDeleteI'm usually very staid with my nails, but I'm loving the mummy ones for Halloween! Do these feel "thick" at all? Or just like nail polish? The thickness of acrylics and other fake nails always bothers me...
ReplyDeleteThey feel like nail polish! Not thick and bothersome at all.
DeletePretty much everything in "Garden Party." Secret promise, lazy afternoon, vintage chic, etc etc
ReplyDeletePumpkin spice! Or vintage chic. But pumpkin spice. As a white female college bum, I think I'm obligated to love that one...
ReplyDeleteI love the Carnival design!

ReplyDeleteNatalie
I've polished my nails exactly three times since getting married (14 years ago), because I. am. lazeeee. But, I think I could handle the Jampberry thing! Thanks for helping me stay feminine in a house full of men!
ReplyDeleteI love the silver floral on magenta! Not sure I could pull it off with my puny nails but I do love it. Maybe these would help keep my nails from breaking all over my dishes and household chores? Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI like the jacks and corns. so cute
ReplyDeleteI don't do my nails anymore... it has been so many years I can't remember the last time! Excuse: with 9 kids I don't have time for them to dry, they always get messed up! This could solve that problem! There are way too many choices... I'd have to spend A LOT of time to make just the right decision :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of the Diamond Dust Sparkle
ReplyDeleteI like porcelain! Thanks for the chance to win. :)
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin spice wrap is really cool, and it also makes me want to make pumpkin muffins. :)
