Jamberry Nails - Another review and GIVEAWAY!!

Well ladies, I am here to talk about Jamberry Nails, once again.

I did a review on these nail wraps, not that long ago and at the time I was trying them out for the very first time and though I liked them, I recognized that due to operator error, my own, they didn't last long at all.

I was a bit disappointed but knew that I would be trying them again and would do my very best to really take my time with the application.

A few weeks ago, another friend and fellow military wife, asked me if I would be willing to try them again.  She is a Jamberry Consultant and I'm always more than happy to help boost up their business.

Anna sent me the wraps of my choice, which at the time were very Valentine's Day inspired, but I love hearts and red and white and I will use them throughout the year.

Let me show you the results this time around.....

Totally in love with these, just jaw dropping gorgeous.  What do you think?

I got them on pretty quick and had no issues at all with them falling off.  I kept these on for 2 weeks and only took them off because I wanted to try the other design.  Good thing about these is that the sheets allow for at least two applications, but I have such tiny nails that I know I will get a lot more uses out of that one single sheet.

So now to show you the second set I received.

These are so cool and funky looking, I just love them.  The only issue I have ever had is with the nails feeling a little scratchy at the tip, or snagging on clothes etc.  But here's a great tip for solving that issue:

Get a finer grit file (glass files are awesome!) or try filing at a *slight* angle to leave the tiniest bit of nail at the tip.

So let me tell you a little more about these Jamberry Nails, give you some info, some videos and then I'll talk about the Giveaway I am going to do.

Did you know you can also design your own???  Just imagine being able to put your own designs and personalize them to your like.  You can go over to the Nail Art Studio to see how to get started.  Just a heads up from Anna though "just be careful with copyrighted stuff. Jamberrry will not print anything with Disney, Star Wars, Minions etc. They've received cease and desist letters and been threatened with lawsuits...".

Now, how to apply the nails, here are a few videos to get you started:



Have curvy nails? I do and I struggle with little bubbles at the tip of the nail, so here is a super easy way to fix those.



If you've never given these a try, you really need to.  I used to get the Walmart ones and I hated them, they never went on right, they fell right off and I always felt like I was just wasting money.

The great thing about these is that they're vinyl and adhere so well to the nail.  And just imagine the cool looking nails you will have all year through.

You can find Anna on her Jamberry Consultant page, she is super sweet and friendly and helpful and she will get you started right away.  You can also find her on Facebook.

Now for the giveaway.....

I want one of you to have the chance to try these awesome nail wraps, so I'm offering a set to a winner that I will draw at random.

All you have to do is visit the new Spring/Summer inspired designs page, decide which one you would like to try, and then leave me a comment telling me which one you prefer.  Also, please like Anna's page on Facebook.

I will draw a winner next week Monday, so go on and make your choice, and tell your family and friends.   Good Luck!!!

Jamberry Nails Review

Hello sweet friends, I am here this morning to tell you all about Jamberry Nails.

Now I know that most of you already know about it, and have been wearing it for a while, but it's something new to me, and the other ladies in the family.  My sweet friend Amy is a Jamberry Consultant and she knows how much I love doing my nails and always trying to put on pretty nail polish or even dabble in a little nail art, so she sent along a couple of wraps for me, my daughter, sister in law and niece to try.

We were so excited when they arrived in the mail.

One of the things that I love about these is that you can even design your own, but I didn't have to do that because they had so many that were very similar to Cath Kidston, which you know I adore. I went with the Vintage Chic design, a very simple mint green with beautiful flowers on it.

My sister in law picked the Rose Glitter which is gorgeous, my niece picked the white tips with the bows and my Jasmine opted for the Galaxy look. They were all so pretty.

Now I have never applied these, so that in itself was quite daunting, but we watched a few videos,

First thing we did was look up some videos that Amy kindly passed along.

Here is the official application, the baggie method and cold method with baggie and pedicure method.

I went over to my sister in law's house and we sat down at the table and went for it.  I don't think we've laughed that hard in a long time, it was quite funny.

We tried going step by step and I still ended up messing up a couple times.  My sister in law though, she was a pro, she caught on very quickly and was way ahead of us all LOL

To be honest, these are very easy to apply but when it is the first time it can be a little confusing, I either skipped a step or did it wrong lol  But I managed to fix it, it's not a problem and easily taken care of.

It really was a lot of fun applying these and learning together how to get them on.  And have I mentioned how much I LOVE mine?  The vintage chic is so me, and just gorgeous.

These are Hayley's nails, the rose sparkle which are stunning.

These are mine, the Vintage Chich.  I love this design it is so pretty.

So the real test for me came to housework, I am constantly washing, cleaning, picking up and moving things around, so I need something that will stay on and work.

The first thing I noticed was that I didn't do a very good first application, these were the first time I was doing them and I know that I didn't exactly make it perfect.  I did deal with a bit of lifting at the edges and also a bit of scratchy feel, but after filing them down a bit more, it seemed to take care of that.

Unfortunately for me and the amount of housework I do, they didn't last very long and by the 3rd day I had already lost one.  I am in no way blaming the nails themselves, I honestly think this is due to my own error when applying them.  I'm also sure that next time I put them on the application will run smoother and I won't have issues with them.......matter of fact I am thinking of putting them on again for Thanksgiving, so we'll see how they do then.

I do love all the designs and I think it would be quite cute to have different ones for different times of the year and holidays, and the fact that you can personalize them means you can really make them meaningful to you.

If you're interested in trying out Jamberry Nails, be sure to contact my friend Amy and check out her website, she can help you out with some stunning wraps. 

Thank you Amy for passing these along to us, we had so much fun trying them on and will definitely put them on again :)
