NOTD | Leopard nail wraps

Hello lovelies!

As much as I love nail art, I've really not been feeling like making much of an effort with it the last month or so. To take a break from plain nails, I rummaged out the last of my nail wraps, which I'm fairly sure were actually from the 2011 Clothes Show Live... I was saving them for something special maybe?!
I really love this pattern, and I think I'm going to be picking up some more nail wraps soon because I find them so much less hassle to use. I know some people don't like them because they can be quite a lot of faff to  put on.

The technique I use is to place the wrap onto my nail, hold it down for about 30 seconds then use nail scissors to trim off the excess ends. I finish them us by filing the ends down to my nail, which I sometimes do again a few hours later after the wraps have settled to the shape of my nail a little bit more.

I find that this particular brand lasts anywhere between 3-8 days depending on what I'm doing (or how bored I am, which leads to a tendency to pick them off. oops!). If you've not tried them yet I think they're really fun to test out, plus they look good without having to mess around with a lot of nail art!

Have you ever tried out nail wraps?
