I am not the biggest fan of a French Manicure. Although, it does looks pretty classy, it's just not my style usually. I bought these dried nail appliques from TKB Trading Co. They applied like a breeze, but it's been less than 12 hours and they are chipping off. Now, I did finish them with a coat of Seche Vite. That may be what they don't like, but a clear over it shouldn't have made their wear worse, right? (Side note, man, my nails are like talons right now!)
