Teddy Lane Nails Reviews

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.

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.

I recently purchased Teddy Lane nails from Farmers so that my nails looked nice for a wedding I was attending. The selection of colours was quite impressive, there were plenty that I liked but I ended up going for 'Blushing Veil' as it matched the super pale pink flowers on my dress.

I applied them the morning of the wedding as I was going swimming the day before and didn't want them to become unstuck. This was my first time using DIY stick on nails. I was really pleased with how thin and malleable the nails were, without compromising on durability. I did manage to glue my fingers together about fourteen times, but once I got the technique down, they were easy to apply. I filed them down to a more natural length that I found more comfortable. I have quite large nail plates so it was a little tricky getting the sizes right given that I only wanted the feature nails on my ring fingers.

I put a decent amount of glue on so that they stay put. So far, so good! I've been wearing them for the last 4 days and they still look great. I would definitely re purchase these. Instant, beautiful nails that look natural (especially with some alterations using the nail file!).

Wow surprise!! I feel so lucky to have been chosen for this Teddy Lane nail trial. The design i got to trial is ‘Blushing veil’ from the naturals collection. As soon as i opened the package, i could not take my eyes off that gorgeous pack of nails. The package just looks so pretty... The set came with a small tube of glue, a buffer and a nice page of instructions for short wear, long wear, and nail removal... which makes it nice and easy to follow for first time users.

At first i was worried the nail sizes will be too big for me that i’ll have to trim it down... which might ruin the pretty coating.. but given 12 sizes of nails to choose from, i was able to find my size. What a relief...

First, i decided to trial one hand for the short term wear... and one for longer. Putting on instant nails for the first time... i knew it wasn’t going to be perfect... So i was overly worried thinking ‘what if the nails don’t come off after several days?, and ‘what if the glue comes out onto my skin if i put too much on?’. So for the short term wear, i only put a very..very.. thin line of glue down the middle of the nail. At the end.. i realised i didn’t put enough glue on the nails i did.. as a couple of nails popped off unnoticed after only a few hours of application. Another popped off in less than a day... maybe i was playing with too much hot water that day and for too long.. that the tiny amount of glue i applied wore off so quickly? On re-application, one of them was a bit wonky.. opps.. ok... i can’t seem to fix it.. but at least i know i put enough glue on this time. So, only a couple of nails survived one day during my short wear trial without having to re-glue. But i know my application will be better next time, as i now have a better idea of how much glue to use. However, good news is that i have some nails that are still hanging on strong. Although not quite 10 days.. i’m sure they will make it through. The property of the glue just amazes me..

I’m glad i picked a medium size nail design for this trial.. although i still ended up buffing these ones down a bit.. as they were still a bit too long for me

The nails look amazing.. and there are many beautiful and stunning designs to choose from. I recommend it to any one who wants salon looking nails done from home. It would also make a great gift for family and friends, or those that needs some last minute instant nails for a special occasion. Maybe even add a set to your beauty gift basket.

Knowing that these nails are reusable.. i will definitely treasure them for future reuse.

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 ☺️

I have not tried fake nails for the longest time. The last time was perhaps when I was a tween? I received a set of these nails in the BBBE “Discoveries” box, and I decided to give them a try over Christmas. The set I received was “Sangria” from Teddy Lane’s “Glamour Collection.”

Teddy Lane nails come in a black cardboard box bordered in silver. Inside each package are 24 nails, a nail file, and a 2g tube of nail glue. Instructions are posted on the back, but inside there is also a leaflet with a 5-step application process. I went about the application by firstly, choosing the nail size for each nail and hand, and then laying them out accordingly. The nail glue is easy to squeeze out of the tube. The glue is a contact adhesive, so the nails stick on fairly quickly. As a newbie to stick-on nails I found the instructions fairly easy to follow, and the whole application process to be stress free.

At first I was paranoid about the nails falling off right after I stuck them on, but these stuck really well, and were a lot tougher than I thought. The plastic they are made from is really hard, and none of the nails chipped. When they came off, they came off whole and intact. I even bent one by mistake and it was still fine and stayed on. I enjoyed wearing these. They looked super cool on, and everyone who saw them was impressed with the look, colours, and decorations on them.

As far as longevity goes, Teddy Lane nails claim to stay on for up to ten days’ wear. My first nail came off after two days, and the last one came off after ten days. So they are true to their word. These nails are reusable, so you can reapply them, or you can use the spares that come in the packet.

The only drawback to these is that they were very long. The “Sangria” design is in the shape “Stiletto” and are long in length according to Teddy Lane’s website. They are much longer in length than what my real nails would ever grow to, and the stiletto style actually curves over the finger, which makes typing difficult. So I found adjusting to the length quite hard. I suppose I could have cut, or filed them down, but I did not want to ruin the shape. I notice on Teddy Lane’s website that they have styles in a medium length instead, so I would be keen to try a shorter length in a more oval shape as I think these nails look very glamorous.

Altogether, I think these are a great option if you are looking to try false nails. They are durable, stay on well, and are very realistic. I plan to try more styles from the range.

These cool nails come in a stylish black box with Teddy Lane branding. There are 24 nails, a nail buffer, and glue. The instructions are on the outside of the box.

I got the shade, 'jeweled amethyst' and they are gorgeous - most are a mauve/lavender/egg-shell blue kind of shade and some have 5 jewels decorating the bottom near the cuticle. Some of them are white/gray marble for contrast.

So I read the instructions (for once) then lined up the nails that I'd measured against my real nails. I almost got it right too! Then glued and pressed them on, one at a time. It is sooo easy. I'd like to pretend I got them all perfectly straight, but I'm pretty gumby so some are slightly off centre, but it's not really noticeable. They needed a little buffing on the edges which was also easy.

The nails themselves are very strong. After 5 days there are no scratches, tears, or marks of any kind on them. And none of the jewels have fallen off either - and I'm not gentle on my hands and nails, so that's saying something. They all look exactly the same as they did when I applied them.

These jeweled nails are $28.99 which is a great price considering how long they look good for, and that they're excellent quality. There are lots of fabulous colours on the site to choose from. And if you're more careful than me, you should probably get two full sets from the box.

I highly recommend them.

When my Teddy Lane nails arrived I was very excited to give them a go. We were heat in away for the weekend so I put them in the overnight bag yo try out whilst relaxing in the far north. They were very easy to apply and looked amazing. I filed them down quite a lot as I'm not used to very long nails. They still looked great shorter and the pattern I chose was not compromised. I was very impressed with how natural the nails looked and got many compliments on them from friends, family and shop keepers. The only down side is that they did not adhere as well as I thought they would. I followed all instructions given to a tee but had to reapply one after only half a day of wear. I work in education and wash my hands a lot I also do many jobs with my hands so found they just were suited to this they lasted in total (after reapplying a few here and there) for 3 days. Some nails were damaged and some of the colour was scratched. I would still use these again though for a night out or event as they were stunning and so easy to use.

My nails are terrible, they break all the time so I'm always keen to make them look better. Teddy Lane Nails were easy to apply and they look good. I put them on about a week ago and they are still on. I'd definitely buy again.
