Showing Some Love... Jamberry!


A little bit of background...
I am a nail polish addict. If you know me, then this is not news. If you follow me on Instagram, then this is not news. Since I was 15 years old I have been getting my nails done on a regular basis. Until this past year, I've always had acrylics. Now that I'm going au naturel, I constantly change my polish and I'm addicted to nail designs and nail art. (I'm getting better each time... But it's a work in progress... lol.) A few weeks ago a Jamberry Independent Consultant (Shout Out to Torry Corbett) emailed me asking if I'd like to try some nail wraps. Now, I had never heard of "Jamberry" before, but the words NAIL WRAPS and TRY stuck out and I thought holdddd uppppp... Does this mean FREE??? (It did.) So I replied post haste and said "YES, yes I would." (Then I googled Jamberry and was impressed with what I found.) Now in an effort to be completely transparent... I was not paid to write this blogpost. (Not even in nail wraps.) Torry, my consultant, sent me some samples free of charge to use as accent nails and she asked for NOTHING in return. Butttttt... I LOVED these nail wraps and figured I'd let the world know.

What I received...

How I used them...
I started small since I had never used any nail wraps before, and just did my pinky.
And it lasted. Though the polish did not. I had this wrap on for about a week and a half. It could've held up longer but I suffer from Nail Polish ADD. Plus working in retail is not a manicure's best friend.

Next I used a regular wrap and an "over-lay" that you put on top of polish so that the color shows through. Again the regular wrap lasted about a week and a half. Sadly the over-lay did not, simply because it was ON TOP of the polish...

Just the other night I finally sat down to do my nails for the first time in THREE weeks. And I had to use some more of my nail wraps. I'm officially obsessed with the houndstooth print (that would be the one on my ring finger.)
A few more details...
Now there is a process to putting these wraps on... But as long as you have a heat source (like a blow dryer) it's pretty simple. 
Lastly, Torry did mention that IF I like the wraps, I could host a "Facebook party"... Ummm, hello... Two of my favorite things... Facebook and Party. So I said to sign me up! IF you are interested and would like to join in on my Virtual Nail party (Again, I'm not being paid to say this, however, based on sales I could possibly earn free product.)... Check me out on FB (shameless self promotion) I now have a page for The Wonky Brow. If you're interested in the wraps but not the "party" check out Torry's page here! (This is her consultant link to the Jamberry site and so she gets credit for any purchases made through her link.) Or if you just want to browse... They have some great designs. I already know exactly which ones I want! Like these... and these... and these... and these... Just to show you a few. ;-) 

I've decided that I really enjoy using nail wraps thanks to these samples... I like that they are easy to use, add an accent to my manicure, look neat and polished, and best of all I can do it myself. What about you? Have you tried any nail wraps? Which are your favorites? Let me know!!! Until next time!
