I can’t remember the last time I had manicures done. Professionally, or by me. See, I wash my hands too much. On the off chance that I get really inspired and give myself a manicure, I’ve found myself washing my hands 2 minutes later. It’s a second nature to me I guess. Plus the dishes, cleaning and all the cooking I do. I hate wearing gloves so don’t even suggest it…LOL. It’s a waste of time. So when I found out about Incoco Dry Nail Appliqué, I got all excited. Now I can style my nails without ruining it 2 minutes after application.
Incoco Dry Nail Appliqué is a self-adhesive nail enamel that goes on dry. 20 colors starting from Pink Satin, to Red Velvet to Berry Rich and Chocolate. Plus six shades for French manicure. The self-apply strips contain the actual basecaot, color coat and topcoat layer. It is done in minutes and will last for up to 14 days. You can find them exclusively at Walgreens for $5.99/pack. The package includes 20 strips, cuticle stick, mini file and a polish removal cloth.
I can’t wait to do my nails this weekend. I’ll post a step-by-step process with pictures to show off my stylishly manicured nails. Ahhh, I’m excited.
I heard about the Avon version, but they went out of stock before I could order…saw these in the mall (for $45 for a full set of 6 pkgs) and went home with one sample nail done…I loved it…and quickly discovered that I could purchase at Walgreens for $5.
I did my first French manicure a week ago and my nails look PERFECT! I have done dishes, cleaned house, typed a zillion emails…they still look PERFECT…I went back today and bought another 5 sets…can’t wait to try the colors!
i have been using these for about a month. they go on easily. first time took a while since i wasnt sure of what to do, but since then it has been a cinch. go to the company website for extra help/info. the french is by far my favorite! when i get a manicure my nails chip usually w/i 48 hours and look not so nice in 3 or 4 days. this does not happen with these. i havent left them on for more than a week, so i dont know what their max life is. after a week they still look good, i just like to go natural or switch the color up.
i have not had any cracking or splitting. they have never came off after a couple hours. i guess it might happen if someone has a chemistry to their nails that reacts badly to the product. i think people may not be buffing, washing, and completely drying their nails before application. anywho, its soooooo worth a try. if it doesnt react well to your mails, you only blew $5!
this doesnt replace a manicure, but it does replace (and go beyond) a polish change. i still get a manicure every now and then so i can have my cuticles trimmed and a lil massage… but if you want lasting color, go with these!!!
Awesome. I’ve been using it for 2 months and loved it so much I gave it to all my friends for their Christmas gifts… and they love it too. I difficult nails with deep ridges (that collect polish, take forever to dry, and make translucent colors appear striped). They are also prone to splitting. Incoco protects my nails, makes them look great, has a great price, and is extremely convenient. I love this product.
In spite of my less than favorable opinion of a similiar product by Avon, I decided to give the Incoco a try.
I picked up the French manicure nail tips at Walgreens and after viewing the video at their website I gave it a shot.
Considering this is my first attempt, I have to say they came out pretty good. not as nice as at the salon but def. better than I could have done free-hand.
After I applied the white tips I used my own sheer color to finish plus a top coat.
I will buy this product again.
I’m so eager to try this product after reading the good reviews! I’m going to Walgreens today to purchase…hope I like it!
Michelle…you spoke of these strips ruining your nails, I hope you’re aware that the gel overlay you spoke of getting to make your nails presentable will ruin your nails terribly. I used to wear gels and acrylics, and trust me, your natural nails will never be the same. It’s taken mine 4 years to finally get strong and healthy again!
I have used this product 4 times over the last 2 months, each application lasting 10-14 days before it started to look a little ragged. I love it. I have medium length natural nails and I work in health care so I wash my hands MANY times a day. This lasts better than anything else that I have used, including salon manicures. I love the french manicures because I have never been able to accomplish a good white tip before and now I get compliments on my nice manicure and I am thrilled because I did it myself in about 20 minutes wearing my jammies in front of the TV, then I can go to bed and nothing smears overnight.
I love this product. I happened to hear someone at Wahlgreens talking about them and that she saw someone at the mall whose nails looked beautiful the appliques were what she was wearing. Needless to say 3 months into this I have an awesome french manicure that lasts 2 weeks. They should advertise on Home Shopping. To share a tip with you, if you have any wrinkling after applying just add your own top coat and a quik dry, those wrinkles go away just like that. I love this so much I have shown it to all my friends. It is an incredible product and my nails are stronger and look healthier than ever. Thanks so much
