I got these in the We Love Nails Best Beauty Box Ever.
I've seen them around but have never actually owned any.
I got the cute pink ones and am surprised at how much they feel like gummy snakes - soft, squidgy and cool.
I've been using them to separate my toes when I'm applying cuticle oil and they're great for stopping the product from spreading between my toes. If I ever use varnish I'll definitely be using them.
I also tried them on my fingernails after reading siouxsannah's review, and they're great for that also. My hands still shake a little from my Graves disease, and these help keep my hands still.
I highly recommend them to any toe and finger nail tenders out there. For $5.99 you can't go wrong.
I received these from the latest vault. I have always wanted toe separators but for some reason had never purchased any myself. When I saw these and they only 'cost' a few points, I quickly added them into my cart.
These are pretty cool looking. They are quite a bright blue and are also squishy. I think I've only heard of foam separators in the past so this concept is new to me. These are super squishy like playdough but they do have some give to them. I want to add that although these aren't exactly sticky, they don't seem to stay clean and fluff and other bits seem to be attracted to them. Mine have been sitting up high but are quite dusty. These don't come with anything to store them in. I'm sure a quick rinse would get them looking as new again though.
These do work for the purpose. Generally, I'll paint my toes and I'll always get some nail polish rubbing onto other toes. This does stop that. So I will continue to use these. But I do find them a bit of a pain to get on and they also feel quite tight and uncomfortable. Perhaps my toes are too wide? I'm not sure, I've never felt like my toes were big but maybe they are. I think I'd only recommend these if you have quite small toes, otherwise I feel like traditional foam may be more comfortable.
