Great for a special occasion

The hardest part of this experiencing reviewing these beauties was trying to choose the colour and shape. I have natural short nails and have never tried falsies before, however I settled on the classic Melia colour. The quality, fit and feel of these nails were awesome, they were light and not uncomfortable at all like I was expecting. The colour was fab and lasted on my nails for 8 days before starting to loosen and fall off. The only down fall for was they were quite long and made some day to day tasks difficult (like changing nappies). Overall would definitely try them again especially for a special event like wedding etc.

Tips: They are quite long but you can file them down if you wish

Easy quick nail fix

For this review I chose the Parisian nail set in long length and they are oval shape. My nails don’t normally grow super long so I filed them down to a length I preferred and also slightly more squoval to suit my hands better. I love the nude and blush pink colours matched with the white and rose gold. Very classy and classic whilst still being fun and pretty. I made the mistake of applying the nails to my left hand first, being right handed this made it more difficult using my left hand, now equipped with false nails, to pick up the little nails and apply them to my right hand. But I got there. Unfortunately I lost one not long after...and stood on it. It split down the middle but no problem! I stuck some glue along the middle of it and glued it right back on and it then lasted really well and I couldn’t tell it had a break in it. The Teddy Lane nails lasted really well. I was determined to truly test then and see if they would last 10 days. I did lose a couple in that time but my ring fingers and pinky’s stayed the whole 10 days and were then actually quite hard to get off haha but I soaked them as directed and after a few goes they came off. They were, other than my own left handed difficulties, very easy and simple to apply. Super easy to shape and file to the size and length I wanted with no damage to the nail. So easy to keep the glue in my handbag and then if I did lose one I could have quickly and easily glued it back on. Really comfortable to wear too. I worried they might hurt or feel weird but I didn’t even notice them after a few minutes. I could feel when they started to loosen sometimes which was handy so I could reapply. I wore them in the shower and bath and in the hot pools at Tekapo Springs. I wore them while playing with my kids, doing yoga, running and going on walks around mountains and they were amazing. I wore gloves when doing the dishes and tried to look after them as best I could. In the end I had two split, one on day 8 and one on day 10. One nail was quite worn by day 5 down to the underneath layer. Another couple had small cracks in the polish. But I think for wearing them as long as I did and doing all the things I did, that was pretty good. Next time I would apply less glue and just wear them for a few days at a time. But they will definitely be my go to events and nights out. I love how easy it to change them and apply them and they are half the price of having a gel manicure. My own nails were left I damaged from the glue although it was a relief to get them off after 10 days. My nails felt like they’d had a bit of pressure on them. I found the file included easier to shape and file the nails that using one of my own. I can’t wait to get a good stock of these so I can easily choose my manicures! No waiting and drying time and no mess ☺️

Tips: Watch the glue bottle. Mine didn’t seem to do back up very well and even though I put it back in the plastic case and in the box it leaked. Eventually it glued itself to the plastic case and the lid was glued to the bottle and I couldn’t get it unstuck. Apply to your dominant hand first for ease of application. Don’t apply too much glue unless you definitely want them to last a long time!

Nailed and Converted

I've always avoided false nails like the plague. My perception was that they would wreck my already dodgy nails and that they were fiddly and messy to use and didn't last very long anyway. I have been proven wrong!

The nails (I chose Belle from the Classic Collection) arrived beautifully packaged and quite true to the description and colour on the website. The instructions were very easy to follow and I loved that you could choose the length of time you wanted to wear them. I did wonder if this would work but it actually does as long as you follow the instructions for the different periods of wear.

The final product looked fantastic on although they felt quite odd at first - this was most likely due to the fact that I'd never worn false nails before. It didn't take long to get used to them.

I only wanted to wear them for a short period as I'm studying and using my computer all the time and found it tricky to type as fast as usual. I know that you can trim them but they just looked so good and I didn't want to risk ruining them.

I love that you can reuse these as long as you don't use acetone remover. Another bonus which makes them quite cost-effective. I will definitely try other ones now and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Teddy Lane nails as a short-term solution to having fantastic-looking nails. I'm off to choose my next colour!

Tips: You definitely need to follow the instructions carefully in order to have great-looking nails, especially if you want them to last longer.

NAILED IT!

I was excited to be accepted for this trial as my work required me to have shorter nails so the appeal for me was having "nails" for a weekend and being able to re use them if I was careful with them. I chose the naturals lovelace collection but I must say the colour was pinker than appeared on the website but once they were on they looked lovely. I chose to wear them for the weekend only so applied with just a dot of the glue which I wasn't sure was going to be enough, however the nails did last the weekend well. They are lovely and light to wear. The longest part for me, apart from spending an hour online choosing from the fabulous selection was deciding which falsie fitted which finger the best. They are simple to put on and the glue (which is a bit whiffy) sets very quickly. They I did choose a long set of nails and in hindsight would pick a medium length as I did find these a little long for my liking especially if I wanted to wear them for longer than a weekend. To get them off I soaked in hot water for about 3 mins and they popped off easily and undamaged. So overall these nails are a great option without having to go to the salon and I think great value for money especially if you are wanting to wear them more than once.

Tips: If you are not used to wearing false nails, then go for the shorter option

Great options for a special occasion!

These Teddy Lane nails are great for a special occasion without breaking the bank! As a nail nerd I usually do my own nails with normal and gel polish, but have not tried many stick on nails before.

I opted for Meila from the Classic Collection which is a more of a natural look compared to the other designs with rhinestones and glitter. The nails were quite long which I am used to, but I can imagine some girls may not want such long nails and would have to cut/file them down before gluing them on. Another thing I noticed was that there were imperfections a the tip of the nail so I had to file them down, which I feel defeats the purpose of stick on nails. One thing I am very happy about is how they come in different sizes, especially the smaller ones as my nails are quite little and I had no problem finding the right fit. Sticking them on was also very easy, the instructions were easy to follow and I got them all on without any trouble the first try.

I am very impressed by how long these have lasted, they have been on for over a week and none of them have chipped or fallen off!

Overall I would recommend these nails if you would like an affordable way to jazz up your nails for a special occasion.

Tips: Follow the instructions and they will last!

Teddy Lane Jewlled Collection

Received my Teddy Lane Jeweled collection packet a view days after my invite - Wow they are so glamorous! Beautifully packaged and displaying the Aquamarine colours. My daughter was instantely jealous!

The package contains 24 nails and I was very impressed with the sizes - I have pretty slim fingers and small nails and I could easily find sizes to fit.

It comes with a small tube of glue and a small nail file to easilily shape where needed. It was pretty easy to stick them on and did take note as directed not to wet your fingers for the first hours - nine days in the are still intact and I have not noted and nicks or chips yet.

I have an office job and repeatedly point out important information in reports to management and co-workers and have received various compliments over the last 9 days I have been wearing them. I have to agree they look gorgeous!

Some of mine had diamanté beautifully place on one side of the nail - it was great because i would never have been able to place them so precisely.

Overall I’m pretty impressed - at the $25 price i would probably only buy them for a special event - they are quick to apply, look beautiful and the easy to take with you as a travel size.

Tips: Follow the instructions - especially don’t get your fingers wet a hour after applying!

I got the jewelled ones too and liked that the jewels didn't fall off - I expected they would after a few days! I loved the way they looked - very classy.

Very sturdy chip resistant false nails!

For my Teddy lane nail trial I choose the shade Kristin from the classic collection. This is a lovely nudey/pink shade which is a prefect shade for everyday wear.

On opening the nails my first impressions were how lovely and natural they look unlike other false nails I have seen before (obviously this depends on which collection you go for). They feel very smooth to touch and have a lovely glossy finish.

What is fantastic about this brand of nails is that they have so many different collections and choices within each range. I have very short nails so didn’t want them too long in length. The ones I chose were prefect as they were medium in length. Everything needed apart from a cuticle stick is include in the pack which includes 24 nails in 12 different sizes, a nail file and glue and off course instructions.

I did find that the application of the nails does require a bit of time. I am a bit of a novice when it comes to applying false nails so perhaps I would get faster and find it easier the more I did it. I definitely can’t stress enough how important it is to properly follow the instructions provided and to do good prep work of your own nails before hand. I was so excited when these arrived that I skip the step or using a cuticle stick to push back extra skin the first few times I apply the nails and found the result wasn’t as neat as the rest.

The only issue I had was finding the right size to fit my thumb and my little finger but the nails are easy enough to file down to size and this didn’t appear to affect the strength or quality of the false nails. The nail sizes are numbered on the back too so it easy to make sure you get the same size nail on each hand.

As I only wanted to wear them for a few days I followed the 1-3 day wear time instructions which meant only using a thin strip or a dot of glue in the centre of the nail. I was a bit concerned that they might not last the full 3 days using only a small dot of glue but the false nails felt very sturdy on once dried and didn’t chip during the 3 days. So I can definitely reuse them again.

When I went to remove my nails I soaked them in reasonably hot water for a good few minutes and then gently lifted the nails off using a cuticle stick. My natural nails didn’t look damaged or appear any more brittle from wearing them and the removal process of soaking in hot water is easy and did work.

I believe they are good quality as they look very natural and felt very sturdy on but I would probably only use them for special occasions as they would get expensive for every day use and they did take a bit of time to apply properly.

Tips: Wear dish gloves if doing dishes by hand as the hot water will loosen them.

Love

Wow they are so beautiful and really easy to use. I've only ever used fake nails like these three times in the last 12yrs and these are the best yet. Definitely keen to buy more when I can afford too, even miss 8 thought they were gorgeous. Thanks for the trail :)

Great for the short term

Totally fell in love with the ones I chose, Knight In Armour from the Chrome collection. They are bold and really make a statement. I thought they were a bit flimsy when first playing with them - bearing in mind I'm used to Acrylics, not stick/glue ons. The shape really isnt my thing... but the folks at Teddy Lane thought ahead, and I was able to file them in to a nice rounded square shape once I had trimmed them to a length that was manageable for me. I work in an office and do a lot of typing, unfortunately knocked a couple off just while working. Went out on Saturday night and got loads of comments on them, so they are definitely a good idea! I've since peeled them off, but looks like I can reuse them for my next occasion, so I will most definitely be doing that!!

Nail Tech Approved!

I'm a certified nail technician, but I no longer do it full time. So back in the day my nails had to be perfect. Now my nails are natural, but kempt, and I only fake it if I'm on holiday, or going to a party or date night.

I'm on holiday in Aussie right now, so great timing! I chose the design Daiquiri - long, stiletto nails in a 'feature' nail design. You could play around with the finished manicure, but the suggested look from thumb to pinky is: pink, glitter, feature, glitter, pink. I followed this pattern.

The design is very pretty and blinging. I love the glitter nail. Being a bit picky, the diamante feature on the line of the feature was a little misaligned, but in a way it added to the natural look, because humans rarely get things perfect right?!

Very easy to apply. If you allow the glue to get tacky on the nails before pressing down it creates less mess and minimises over-spill.

These are easy to file down if you need to, both at the tip and down the sides for fit. The file is a bit pants, if you need to file quite a bit, you'll want a tougher one.

They look as natural as falsies can, and do not look like press-ons. My girlfriend's are convinced these are gel or acrylic because of the quality!

Long is long - even though I'm used to long nails I do keep catching my thumb. The glue sticks so well its actually a bit sore when I catch it, but thats a reflection of my nail choice. It would be cool if each design was a available in variety of lengths.

I really love these nails, thanks BR!

Tips: Do your fingers on both hands first and then apply to your thumbs.
