Incoco Jackpot

Hi guys, here's the last set of Incoco nail polish strips that I received, and wow, they're amazing!! Normally with glitter polish you'll have at least 3 coats, 2x glitter and 1x top coat, but we all know some glitters need 3 coats and a lot more top coat to get a smooth result. These strips however, have base/color/top in 1 thin, smooth, SPARKLY layer! ^^ And no messy cleanup either, awesome!

These strips are called Jackpot and they're from the Halloween collection, and the color is indeed perfect Halloween burnt orange. Here's a daylight pic that shows the color better, pretty right? But when you hold it near a lamp...woah! Magic right there!

See how thin and smooth this is, without top coat? And how neat they are near my cuticles? ♥

On a sidenote, if you're not so into strips because you prefer your own nail art, then you might like this great tip from one of my readers as well. Thanks a lot for sharing this, Anna! :)
"I used a nude coloured one & stamped over it just before Christmas last year as I knew I was going to be away from all my polish things. It lasted a full 10 days with only minimal wear on 1 or 2 nails."

Aren't these gorgeous?! Thanks for looking!

Cozy Incoco strips

Hey all! The 2nd set of Incoco nail polish strips that I received are these adorable Christmas sweater design strips, aren't they cute? :)

These strips are called Cozy Up and I applied them all in the same direction, but because these strips have rounded ends on both sides, you could also apply half upside down. Or when your nails aren't as long either, just pick the side that you like the most :) And won't these make great accent nails?

For more info on how to apply them, check out my first review of Incoco strips here! And Kelsie's Nail Files gave a good tip as well (thanks for that, Kelsie!), these strips are supposed to last for up to 14(!) days, wrapping your tips with top coat doesn't only give smooth tips but also helps to make the strips last longer. I always wrap my tips with nail art, but because these strips don't need top coat, I didn't use that here either. However, next time I'll wear strips I'll definitely wrap them as well!

What do you think of this design, isn't it perfect for Winter? Have a lovely weekend & take care!

Incoco nail polish strips

Good morning all :) I recently received some Incoco nail polish strips for review, and I have to say, I'm very impressed with these! I'll tell you why below, but here's the result of the first set I tried:

The set I'm showing here is called Fashion Fusion, neon pink with black lace.

Here's what I received, 3 sets (I'll be showing the other 2 in my next 2 posts, especially the glitters wowed me!), a little nail file and orangewood stick, and a folder with info and a bunch of their shades. And they have a LOT of different strips, way more than shown on that folder. From normal polish to glitter to nail art, but also French designs and pedicure designs!

Incoco has a clear vid on their site about how to apply these, but you can already see from the sealed package that these ain't your average nail strips. They're actual polish strips, instead of the usual stickers. And if you have any doubts, opening the package and smelling them will convince you, hah! They also included base and top coat in them, I didn't finish this mani with top coat either. The package also comes with a big silver sticker which I used to reseal the little bag that holds the strips. It's to prevent them from drying out, but even if they would dry out a little, I bet they still work then by using them as a decal as I showed here.

The strips come in plenty different sizes (16 strips in total), ánd both the top and bottom part of each strip can be used near your cuticles, depending on the shape that works best for you. I haven't seen that before with strips, but I like it! After applying them, you give them a gentle stretch and rub them, and somehow they end up smooth and even on every single nail, no bubbles, no wrinkles, nothing like that!
And as you can see, they're long enough to fit even on very long nails (I even kept my nails long for the reviews of these, lol). I think I could easily get 2 nails done with 1 strip if I'm careful. However, the little file that came along didn't work as nicely for me, as you can see on my tips, it felt a bit too coarse/smooth for me, and for the next sets I went with a different file to get a better result at my tips.

As I said before, I'm very impressed with these, and what I really like as well, smooth, shiny glitters and neon polish in a thin strip without having to use lots of layers to get that result! They're supposed to last for 14 days, but I'm sure you'll understand that I haven't tried that, I can't remember ever wearing a mani for that long =)

You can buy the Incoco nail polish strips in their webshop. What do you think of their strips, would you use them? Thanks for stopping by ♥
