New Year's Nails

Al and I went out for sushi with friends of ours for New Year's Eve.  I decided to try out something new on my nails.  I used Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail polish strips that were $7 at Target.  The best part is that you don't have to wait for the nail polish to dry!  It took me about 20 minutes to put them on my nails, but I think it would only take me 10 the second time (I ready the directions roughly 30 times).

You get 16 nail polish strips and each strip has a different shape on each side...so that is 32 combinations to make sure you have the perfect fit.  Make sure that you clean the oil off of your nails with nail polish remover (even if you aren't wearing any polish) to be sure that they stick.

After putting on the nail polish strips, we went to the Children's Museum...so these babies got a good test drive.  They held up great, and looked great for our dinner that evening.  They only lasted about a week (like regular nail polish), but the speed and the fun designs are worth the higher price tag (still a lot cheaper and faster than a professional manicure).
