I tried Incoco's nail appliques when they first hit the shelves at Walgreens, and I loved them! Super easy to apply and since they are stickers, there is no dry time. NONE! The first time I didn't use anything but the stickers, and they lasted for about 12 days before wearing away on the tips. And I worked on a cash register everyday! They are great for last-minute nail color. I applied them on the way to my boyfriend's sister's wedding and my nails looked fabulous. Perfect for people who always bump their wet nails because they can't wait around for their damn nails to dry (read: ME). Highly recommended!

I've been curious about something like this, specifically the Avon ones. Do your nails need to be a certain length for these to work? I keep my nails pretty short, so I'm just curious.

I haven't tried them (I like the process of "doing" my nails), but my SIL uses the Avon ones off & on. She doesn't swear by them, but she does like them...and she says they stay on for a long time. Not sure what "long time" means in her world; nevertheless, that's what I've heard.

My nails are usually very short - you can barely see the white part - but it applied just fine. I grew them out for the wedding, and they worked fine, too. You apply them from the cuticle up, and at the tip you just press along the edge and they tear off smooth. So long as there is an edge, they will work. I wanted to try the Avon ones when they came out, but I forgot about them. I was still working at Walgreens when Incoco came out, so I bought them with my discount. For 6 bucks, they are worth it to me because they do actually last longer than regular polish and look professional, even with super short nails.

Thanks. I might have to give these a go sometime. I'm sooo impatient when it comes to waiting for my nails to dry, and 9 times out of 10, I mess at least one up while I'm waiting for them to dry.

I heard from my Avon rep. that the instant manicure and instant pedicure (stick on polish) stuff is being discontinued. Better snatch it up fast if you want to try it. It might go on sale!
