   I love Nailene Nail Glue it’s the strongest nail glue I’ve tried also their press on glued on fake DS nails are very nice, I wore them nearly 2 weeks w/ only having a couple pop off (just relocate find & reattach the rogue nail!). Now my Kroger got rid of Nailene in favor of Sensationail (sp?) which I think is made by same company not sure but I’ve tried the glue which is fine but Nailene was the best! I wish I had stocked up on Nailene products at Kroger but I’m a Kiss nail girl anyways. The nails looked terrific & were cheaper than Kiss. If u want a good price on nails go to the most ghetto dollar general u can find & in the MU section u will find a treasure trove of nails mostly Kiss & Broadway (not sold w glue) for <$3 ea. pack lotsa designs & lengths. I never saw Nailene except in French. I love square tip French & Nailene is slightly oval more oval than I prefer. The Nailene looks so perfect too perfect not to be fake but just as good as a $25 full set. Over all I'd repurchase but I'm kind of liking my ghetto nails. My dad buys me 4-5 boxes at a time, the clerks checking him at the register probably thought he was crazy. 🙂

   Nailene Nail Salon are press-on nails and come in a package of 24 tips with a buffer for under $5. I have enjoyed the Nailene Gel kit for about 2 years now and find they have good quality products. In this kit you buy the nails and then the Ultra Quick Glue separately. I got the medium length classic French Manicure style.

   I have never used fake nails before, and do not like the look of fake gel nails on most women. I like natural and trim looking. I made the mistake of reading a blog where the writer said to put the glue on the fake nail, instead of onto your natural nail, which is what the directions say. I did the first few nails her way and got glue all over my fingers, and I had a lot of extra work getting it off my skin after. When I switched to the instructions I had great results. I also purchased these because it said they were extra thin. I may get the short ones next time as the mediums are challenge for me – longer than I ever wear my natural nails, and typing this is difficult. But they look great and feel glamorous. I will be repurchasing. And a bonus, I was able to file them down, and round out the super sharp edges, so they are not so square and I don’t scratch myself – that “sliced off” tip look screams fake to me. Also one went on a little lop-sided so I was glad I could even it out.

   You are only to wear them one week (your nails need to breath). I am NOT looking forward to the removal tho – soak in acetone until they dissolve. we’ll see if that part will be worth it. If so, I’ll come back and give these 5 lippies. I’m going to a spa retreat for 5 days next month and I think this is the manicure answer for that trip. They look pro and if they last, I’ll definitely do these. Quick and easy to apply when you follow their instructions. Push back your cuticles and select and line up the sizes that fit your nails first. Don’t use too much glue – a drop and then spread it around with the glue tip worked for me.
