Press On Nails Short - Red Press on Nails Short Oval Nails Fall Fake Nail with Nail Glue, Fit Perfectly, Reusable Glue On Nails in 16 Sizes for Valentine's Day Gift, Cardinal

So I actually would like to do an update to this review as of (3/20/25) First of all, the customer service is excellent. They reached out to me after I posted this review, clarified instructions, and send me new nails to try. Turns out I actually love these. I got the French manicure ones as the replacement. I still don’t like the red ones and I don’t think they’re super true to the picture. But I will 100% re-order the french pair and try other colors. These nails also feel pretty good. I think I’ll be using them in conjunction with Glamnetic. I have been a huge fan of press ons for the past 2 years. They have saved me so much time sitting at the salon getting acrylics (which I personally don’t enjoy) and money as well. For most of this time I’ve been using Glamnetics and I am really satisfied with those, but sometimes I’ll see some color variations for BTArtbox that I’m intrigued by. I ordered this set to see if they would be good enough to use alongside my Glamnetic sets. The verdict - they are not, not for me at least. Let me explain why. They are at the same price point as Glamnetic but they are not as strong and don’t last as long. I understand that both Glamnetic nails and BTA nails are made of plastic, but BTA has more of a plastic feel, maybe because the plastic is lower quality or thinner. With this set you can almost see a little bit through it in the right light/angle. Also, and I’m not sure why this is, but Glamnetic usually lasts 2-4 weeks for me, but with BTA by the 3rd day, the nails were starting to fall off. At this point, I’ve mastered the prep, so did the exact same steps I do for Glamnetic. At first, I thought that maybe the glue wasn’t as good, so then I tried it with Glamnetic glue and had the same issue. So now I think, again, it’s the material. Lastly, I can’t speak for all sets because I only tried one, but the color was a bit off. I expected a more RED red, whereas the color felt a bit more like off red or muted. This isn’t really a negative though because some people might like that, I just didn’t love it. Now for the positive. These nails are definitely still superior to anything you can buy at the drugstore. They are harder and more nail-like. Would I use them again over Glamnetic? Probably not, because of the similar price point but worse quality. But if I had never tried Glamnetic and went straight from drugstore nails to BTA, I’d be impressed. Which makes me feel like the issue here is the price point. Ultimately, to be competitive, I think that BTA either needs to lower the price or step up the quality. The potential is there, but it’s not quite hitting the mark yet (for me).

If you glue these properly these nails will last through the end of the world. I was so impressed by how they didn’t budge, did not lift up, just stayed cement super glued to my nails for 15 days! I rarely have press ons that last more than 7-8 days because I do a lot of yard work, working out, etc. Plenty of shape sizes to match your natural nails. I docked 1 star because the removal of these made me wish they didn’t stick so well. Less than 10 min to apply, over an hour to get them off without ripping off my natural nails.

I am so impressed with these nails. First of all, their size selection was excellent. I was able to find a nail that fit every single one of my nails and fit well. I have smaller fingers, but still always have issues finding the right sizes. They went on so quick and easily, maybe 25-30 mins with the prep of the nail bed. (Follow the instructions) These nails were also very easy to modify. I trimmed them down because my fingers just don’t look great with points. They cut nicely without cracking or breaking and I was able to file them smooth. Then they lasted two weeks, and could have gone on longer. I used a different adhesive sticker from a brand I found on Amazon and they probably could have gone another week—but I wanted to put a different color on, and they had grown out quite a bit. Let me also say, I am not easy on my hands. I do tons of dishes, lots of house cleaning, I wrapped all my Christmas presents, I baked and decorated, and did a myriad of other tasks that would have chipped any nail polish and ruined many a gel mani. Not these. They still look pretty great! And taking them off was easy, I soaked them for a while in warm soapy water and gently wiggled them around. After a while I used the orange stick to lift the off my nails with nearly no damage to my nail. The sticky tab came off the back of the nail completely with a bit of scraping with the orange stick and they look nearly brand new. I will definitely be able to wear them again. They are worth the money and I will be purchasing/already have purchased more colors which are just as pretty as these. The variety of designs and color options are just great! Definitely recommend!

Fantastic!
