Kiss Nail Dress Fashion Strips Review!


Kiss has recently came out with these new nail fashion strips and, as you saw in my previous post, I received them in my Influenter Voxbox. I was really interested in trying these out since I hardly paint my nails. I was hoping that these would give me a really cute nail design without me actually having to use nail polish. I suck at nail design so these seem like a better option. How were they are how long did they last? Click read more below to see.


Kiss Nail Dress Fashion Strips in Sexy

Kiss says:
- No drying time.

- Just peel, apply, and shape.

- Lasts up to 10 days.


First applying them, I thought the stickers were a bit difficult to work with. Even though they are just stickers, I wanted to make sure to put them on straight and even with my nails. Once I did the first 4 nails, it started to get easier as I went on. I made sure to press them on as much as could so they could stick and also smoothed them out. I was really excited at how they looked on my nails! I didn't want to get my hopes up if they didn't last even one day, so my testing began.

I started out just doing everything that I normally would do to see if they would lift off or peel. By now it was day 3 and they looked as good as when I first applied them. Day 4 went by with a breeze as well. Once it got to day 5 I could see a bit of lifting from my pinky nails. It was already bothering me that there was lifting that I ended up taking them off that day. So for me, they lasted 5 days total. Kiss says 10 days, but for nail stickers, I think they did pretty good!

Even out when I went to the store or school, people (mostly girls) noticed my nails and told me they loved them. Someone even asked me where I got them done! I told her what they were and she was shocked they were stickers. They retail for $6.99 which I think is a great price. Knowing that they last up to 5 days for me I will definitely buy more designs.

Have you tried these Kiss Nail Dress Strips? What do you think?

★Review★

Packaging:
It's pretty basic. It's a plastic box looking thing that has one razor handle, a razor cartridge and a wall mount for the razor. I liked the color too. It was nice and it reminds me of goddesses. If that makes sense. The moisture bars on top and bottom smelled amazing. To me it had a fresh and sweet smell to it.

Texture:
I was a bit skeptical about how my body would feel after using this because razors that I have used with moisture bars have left the texture of my skin bumpy and irritated. It didn't take much to get a really close shave and it left me smooth like a baby.

Lasting Power:
My legs baby soft lasted about 1 day but that is because my leg hairs grow back pretty quick. Everything else lasted a few days. It was surprising to me. I have used the razor bar quite a few times and I still have a lot of moisture bar left.

Price:
To me this razor kit is pretty cheap. $9 for all that you get is pretty good. What I think is kind of expensive is the refill cartridges. You can get one refill cartridge for about $9 and a 3 pack for about $14. If you really love this razor than I would suggest getting the 3 pack. You will save about $4 if you bought the 3 pack instead of paying $9 each.

★Overall★

I do recommend these razors. They give a soft baby feeling and have 5 blades so you get a really close shave. Plus there is no need for shaving cream because you have the moisture bars. They also smell amazing so that is another plus. You also have the grip on the handle which gives you more control over the razor so there won't be any nasty cuts. Oh yeah, it comes with a wall mount! How cool is that? You don't have to worry about finding a spot for it or having the kiddies get it. I really liked that! So yeah, go get yourself one of these and let me know how you like it!

I give it:
