“You can't change the world, but you can change your nails.”
MY LOVE FOR PRESS ON NAILS
There are times where nail art is a must. But there are times you just can't make it to the nail salon. What do you do in the event that that happens? Press On Nails. I did not get into press on until I was pregnant because the smell of a nail salon would make me nauseous. oPrior to that I wasn't a fan of them because I felt like they didn't work. My interest in press ons carried over until I gave birth. Having long nails while nursing and taking care of a new born is not recommended. Now I press ons very often. I love them so much that I launch my own press on nails collection. Information on the collection with be further in this blog post. I will present 2 methods for applying press on nails but before lets talk about some benefits of wearing press on nails.
THE BENEFITS
They are super convenient. I would recommend it to working moms and just anyone with whom may not have the time to do so. It is less time consuming. Sometimes I just don't have the time to go to the salon because of my busy schedule. No need to worry about smudging your nails. No need to worry about the paint job fading. Not to mention those times when an event pops up out the woodwork and you need your nails to look the part. My influencers know this all too well. It is right up the alley of content creators who like to bring different looks on a regular basis. I must say it is inexpensive as well.
