imPRESS Press On Manicure

Today's post is all about the Broadway Nails imPRESS Press-On Manicure that I received in my MomVoxBox from Influenster.


I received a nice, very shiny purple color in my box. Now, I have used press-on nails before and they didn't ever stick very well for me. So, I was a little apprehensive that these would stay on for even a couple days.


The directions are very simple to follow. Just pick the size that fits your nail, peel off the plastic from the back (there is a tab to make it easy), and press onto your nail. Keep pressing for about 30 seconds to ensure it adheres well. Then, repeat for the remaining nails. After you are finished try not to get your nails wet for a while, maybe even a few hours.

I applied mine in well under 10 minutes. These would be great for last minute manicures before an outing with friends! I wore mine to a friend's baby shower.
The package states:
~No drying time...yep, no wet polish to deal with
~Easy removal & won't damage your nails...yep, my nails looked good. No peeling or anything.
~No glue needed....yes, love this part because I always manage to get glue on my fingers.
~They can last up to a week...mine lasted about 5 days. But, I'm a mom who has her hands in water washing things constantly. But still, I was impressed they lasted that long.


The imPress nails come in 36 colors and patterns. You can see them all at http://www.blogger.com/www.impressmanicure.com . You can also download an exclusive coupon from their website and virtually try on the different colors and patterns!
These nails cost $5.99 for solid colors and $7.99 for the patterned nails. They can be found at CVS, Rite Aid, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, Walgreens, etc.
I can't wait to use my coupon that came in my MomVoxBox to purchase a new set. I really like "Lil Drumr Grl", "Dancing Queen", "Holla!", and "Over The Moon". Now I just have to decide which one I want to get!

TrueBlood Swap on Rav

I am participating in a swap on Ravelry in the TrueBlood group. I haven't received my package yet, but I thought I would show you some pictures of what I sent my spoilee.
Here is what she saw when she opened the box.
This is all the little goodies she got to open!
A note from me explaining what the theme of my package was: "Pick Me: Eric vs. Alcide" (she likes them both, so I had Eric & Alcide to kind of plead their cases to win her over...)
These are the goodies from Eric: bracelet, stitch markers, yarn, chocolate candle, do not disturb sign, washcloth & body wash. And a note from Pam to help convince her to pick Eric.
Here are the goodies from Alcide: a cowl, starburst, socks, hot chocolate, sewing tin, dishcloth, earrings, stitch markers, & vanilla candle.
She has a yorkie, so Sam Merlotte's threw in a new hand knit dog toy:
The back on the TB project bag:
Side view:
A hand drawn pic from me. And a keychain with a blood drop and a claw to represent Eric & Alcide.
A few pix of Joe Manganiello (Alcide) and some paper dolls ;-) as well as a few crocheted hearts I threw into the box.
The best part is that she loved everything! Yay! I cannot wait until the next swap!
I've had so much fun...just waiting on my swap package to arrive and see all the goodies I get!
