Elegant Touch Nail Wraps

I have for you all today 3 sets of Elegant Touch Nails wraps, Black and Chevron, Dotty Hot Pink and Leopard Aqua. 

all wraps

I had received these quite a while back and apologies for taking so long to show you them, but it did take me a little while to try them and them even longer to decide to actually show you them, but I will note this has nothing to do with the wraps themselves.

I just was not happy with how I applied the wraps and how they looked in the pictures, and again this was nothing to do with the quality of the wraps, it has to do with how badly I applied them,  I just did not have the skill to trim them to the correct size and apply them without creasing.

When I did wear them I got a lot of compliments on how they looked, but just close up in pictures every tiny flaw is shown.

These wraps come in pre-sized nail strips but I found I had to trim quite a few of them to fit my nails, this may not be the case with everyone as obviously it depends on your nail size etc.  They then have a sticky back which you just apply to your nail and presto, pretty designs in minimum time.

Firstly we have Black and Chevron which comes with the black strips and then the accents come separately you can decide where they go.  Oh and please ignore the fact I am holding a-england bottles in my pictures, they were the closest to hand when taking the photographs!

Then we have Dotty Hot Pink which is alternating pink and white bases with the opposite colours dots on each nail, there are also little clear crystal designs at the bottom which are preset.

The we have Leopard Aqua which is just print on the wraps without any additional add ons.

Well that's that, I did like the designs on these just not sure they are worth it for me, due to many many years of painting my nails I can do it to my standards fairly quickly but as I am not used to wraps I felt it took me longer to apply these than it would have to paint my nails, that being said I am in no way talented achieve these kind of designs without the use of wraps so there is that.

I would love to hear your thoughts on wraps, these and others :)

You can purchase lots of different kinds of Elegant Touch Wraps from the official site here.

Thanks for looking <3

  1. They do look really great, I just don't think they are for me as it's way easier to apply a good nail polish and then I am done! (I am a really lazy person when it comes to effort.) I have not yet to be converted to nail wraps...

    1. Me neither, they should be so straight forward but it just seems so difficult for me :p x
