Title: Crazy, easy nail polish

I saw this in the store when I was in Montreal. I wanted my nails to look nice but I was in no mood to paint my nails. It was a stick on polish but even though I doubted it would work I bought it. I was pretty out of it then.
That was almost four months ago. Last week we were heading out of town and I didn't have time to do my nails. Then I saw the INCOCO nail polish I had bought in Montreal. So I tried it.
IT WAS RIDICULOUSLY EASY!!!
No going outside the lines, no mess, no holding the brush steady. It just went on and if I didn't like it I could readjust it. When I liked how it looked, I pressed it on, pulled the excess down over the tips and WHALLAH! Done!
And a week later it has held up better than ANY nail polish I have ever used.
No, I don't own stock in the company and I'm not a paid spokesperson. But I will use this stuff again... after the first application wears off.

Thanks for the tip, I checked it out on their website. Looks fantasticly easy.
I am so tired of the damage that salon nails are doing to my nails and I have
a problem with them that, when they break, the break is in the middle of the
nail and it goes through the acrylic and the nail all the way down to the nail
bed. It is VERY painful. The last time, and it is the last time, I had them done,
there were four that broke that way. I liked the "pamper myself" idea of salon
visits but they always seem to turn out to be a pain, literally. I'm doing my
own again and these look like they will do a great job. The website said
they're available at "Walgreens". What kind of price range are they in?

I use Sally Hanson's Acrylic Nails. Very similar to the stuff they use in salons, but I am always looking for some thing easier. I will look into this.
Thanks Julie.

That looks really cool. Has anyone tried it on toenails?

Unless you have really narrow toes I don't think the sizes they provide would fit.

It's a neat concept, but the Avon one didn't work well for me. The edges of the polish didn't quite match my nails and my nails are small so maybe it works better on bigger nails.
I'll see if I can get the Incoco version sometime to compare.
