ohora Semi Cured Gel Nail Strips (N Afterglow) - Blue, Glitter, Works with Any UV/LED Lamps, Salon-Quality, Long Lasting, Easy to Apply & Remove - Includes 2 Prep Pads, Nail File & Wooden Stick

I have very weak, splitty nails, so I can never grown them, or if one does actually get past the nail bed, it's so weak that it's useless, and just splits and snags. So, I've always had to wear acrylic nails, etc. But acrylics, dips, gels... all use a super-glue type product and do so much damage! I've even had some snag and tear part of the nail off down to the nail bed. OUCH!But now I've found these! I find them very easy to put on and they last at least a week. When it's time to take them off, they just peel off with no damage! Yay! My method is to put on all the stickers of one hand and smooth them down to the nail, then cure, THEN clip and file. Then do the other hand. This allows them to finish a little longer than my own nails. If I am careful to push the cuticles back and not get the stickers on top of them, I have no problem with lifting.Pro: EASY! Last a week. Look very nice; natural. Don't destroy the nail bed. 2 full sets per package.Con: Doesn't last 2 weeks like other "fake" nails. Will lift and snag if you place them on top of the cuticle.

Great product! sticks really well with the use of a LED nail light. great design. I like how long they last. I recommend trimming them to your actual nail length, otherwise they will be sticky underneath. They provide strength to the nail.

I think these are super cute and a great when you're trying to save money or are in a pinch and don't have time to get your nails done. Fairly easy to apply and can last if done correctly. Only downsides I've noticed is that the sizes can sometimes be off and leave a small gap of nail not covered along the sides (could just be me) or if you don't prep perfectly, they will lift very quickly.

My nails get brittle & break off easily when I repeatedly get gel manicure. It became so bad that I had to stop doing my nails to let it grow out (I hated having bare nails). I’ve been seeing Ohora for a while and thought I’d give it a try. I’ve tried the glue on extensions but they kept coming off so easily. I didn’t have high hope. It turned out these are much better than the type you glue on.Mind you, they will occasionally come off but not as easily as the glue on type. Also if you keep them longer than your natural nail, it will chip off more easily because they are not very strong without your natural nails.But I love how these don’t require filing off your natural nails & don’t make my nails brittle. I’m sticking to Ohora from now on. I’ve ordered a bunch of them already & will be ordering more!<Pros>* Easy to apply* They do last ~2 weeks (but a few might come off & you may need to replace them)* Fantastic patterns that can’t be accomplished by regular manicures* They don’t make your natural nails brittle because you don’t need to file them off.* Professional looking nails for a fraction of nail salon cost<Cons>* You have to make sure the edges are securely adhered. Otherwise, hairs get in between when you wash your hair. It’s quite annoying* They will chip if you keep them longer than you natural nails. They require your natural nail backing for strength.* You do need their primer for better adherence.* You end up wasting the ones that don’t fit your nails. You can stretch them slightly if they are a bit narrow. But there are a few that are way too small to even stretch. They just don’t get used.

These nails looked great right after applying — the design was stylish and they had a nice finish. But unfortunately, they started curling at the edges after just two days. I followed the prep instructions, so I was a little disappointed by the short wear time. Great for a quick event or photo-ready moment, but not ideal for longer wear.

I developed an allergy to gel polish, so I started using the gel strips, as they do not bother my skin. These are easy to apply and they last a long time. I have three nail beds that are pretty much the same size, so I do have to trim some of the nail strips down to fit. I have purchased these Ohora gel strips as well as other brands, and I like these the best. Especially the ones that have any type of glitter because they feel thicker than the solid colors.

I’ve been using Ohora gel strips for about 2 months now. They’re so convenient. It’s cheaper to buy these than to get my nails done at a salon every two weeks. I will say, they last much longer when you don’t stick them so close to your cutical and when you apply a gel top coat. I’m constantly doing things with my hands (I type on a keyboard for a living, I’m a toddler mom as well) these things are great! I make sure to buff my natural nails really good and make sure they’re clean and dry befor applying the strips. I cure them before i cut them and then i apply a clear coat on top. I love how cleap they are that i Can change them within a week if i wanted to. Attached is a picture of mine a little over 2 weeks on and still going strong.

Was really excited to try these for my daughter’s first birthday.They looked adorable and stayed on through the event.Unfortunately, two were missing by the next day.Great for short-term use, but not very durable which is opposite from the reviews I read
