Why? Well mostly because I'm lazy. And because I don't want to take or make the time to do my nails. And painting little designs on them? Yeah, there's no way that ever could or should happen; I can barely just put plain color on. Oh, and my nails seem to hate polish; they chip within three days of being painted, if not before.
So, yes, I have plenty of excuses. But, Jamberry Nail Wraps blow all of those excuses out of the water. For example, the designs are already on the wraps and they are gorgeous designs too. This design is one of the many I love:

I mean, can you imagine trying to paint that yourself? What? You can? Well, you are, respectfully, a show off.
If, like me, you can't paint teeny tiny multicolored designs on your nails, then like me, you will love Jamberry. Not only do they offer tons of fabulous designs and colors and colorful designs, they last a lot longer than three days. And, the best part? They are a cinch to put on.
I tried a green snake print wrap, a blue glitter and a gunmetal glitter and then painted my other nails a pewter color:
On my left thumb above, you can see the only con I found with the Jamberry wraps; they are made for people with more narrow nail beds than on my giant hands. But, it's really not noticeable unless someone is staring at the side of your thumb, as we're doing here. Stop staring!
As you can see, I put the Jamberry wraps on my pointer fingers because I'm hardest on those nails and I wanted to see how they held up. Here they are on Day 3:
As you can see, the Jamberry wraps are lifting a little bit, but I'm pretty sure that's my doing; I didn't blast them a second time with the blow dryer. But, for the most part, they look pretty good and a lot better than the plain polish on my other nails.
And here we have Day 7:
My standard polish continued to chip like crazy, but the Jamberry wraps are still going strong. A bit faded at the tip, especially the dark, gunmetal wraps, but all in all, pretty amazing for a week on my hands.
I took them off after the seven days and the removal was as easy as the application. I blasted them with the blow dryer for 15 seconds and they peeled right off without taking any of my nail with them!
I definitely recommend Jamberry, both for everyday wear and for special occasions; they have every kind of design you can think of. They make wraps for both finger and toe nails and even make smaller wraps for children's hands.
If you'd like to try Jamberry yourself, you can find and buy them here. But, I'm also giving a set of Jamberry nail wraps away! To enter, just visit the Jamberry catalog and let me know in the comments below which wrap you'd pick.
