ImPRESS Nails: The Best $10 Manicure for the Busy Mom

ImPRESS Nails: The Best $10 Manicure for the Busy Mom

imPRESS NailsI can’t gatekeep these any longer.

Moms, the best manicure is sitting on the shelf at Target.

ImPRESS Nails are my go-to for a quick gel manicure look without the salon prices. I get compliments for my manicure EVERY TIME I have a set on. 

Here’s why I am obsessed: 

Amazing Price

They are $10. You can’t beat that. Even if you just need them on for one night. 

Way Too Easy to Apply 

If I can do it, you can do it. I spend more time trying to paint my nails and end up frustrated, looking like I let a five-year old paint them. In fact, the five-year-old would probably do a better job. After following the prep directions, you pull the adhesive tab and stick them on your nails. No messy glue needed.

They Actually Last

I had mine on for eight days. They probably would have lasted even longer, but my hair was getting caught on the edges because the adhesive was starting to lift. 

They Don’t Destroy Your Nails

This was one of my biggest concerns, but I’ve had great luck removing them without damaging my nails. I use a wooden cuticle stick to gently lift the press-on. I have also read that dental floss works really well to separate the nail from your natural nail. Once they’re off, I soak my nails in warm water to remove any leftover adhesive, and that’s it.

Tons of Options

They have all sorts of options. Short, long, almond shape, coffin shape. You will find exactly what you are looking for with this brand. They are available in a plethora of retail shops including Ulta, Walmart, Target, Amazon, etc.

Elphaba-inspired Halloween nails

If you’ve been looking for an affordable, easy manicure that actually looks like a salon gel set, these are definitely worth trying.
