While the Girly Glam patterned wraps were considered part of the "shimmer" line, these ones are from the "creams" line. As you can see, they look kind of metallic, and they aren't made of glitter pieces like the other set was.
Application is done the same way as the other set of strips that I tried -- super easy! You only have to select the size you want to use on your nail, peel it off the paper, stick, smooth, and then file off the excess at the tips. You don't need to use base coat or top coat. It's instant nail art for people that don't want to spend a lot of time on their nails!
Wear time was great on these as well. I wore them on a vacation because I knew I wouldn't be changing my nails. They wore for five days with no chips and only minimal tipwear. They probably would have lasted longer still, save for the fact that I change my polish so often and couldn't personally make it longer than that. :)
Also of note, in my first post about these wraps, I told you guys I would try to save my leftovers from the previous pack and see if they would last. They don't. I put them back in all their packaging and then sealed that up in a plastic bag, but when I took them back out, they were dried up and unusable. Use 'em if you've got 'em. If you have a lot of extras, have a nail session with your roommate!
I think, if you are interested in trying out nail wraps, the OPI Apps are a great option. They are easy to use and they come in really unique and sophisticated designs.
OPI Pure Lacquer Nail Apps are available at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for the suggested retail price of $11.95.
