My Favorite Cheap Beauty Hack!

With the pandemic, a lot of us have had to turn to DIY beauty treatments.  Some turning out great and some epic fails!  Being a Super Saving Mom, I have been doing DIY beauty treatments at home for years.  One of my favorite at-home and cheap beauty hacks is doing my own fancy acrylic nails.  And I don’t mean whipping out the UV light and spending hours trying to recreate my favorite manicures.  I can spend less than $10 and 10 minutes and get a manicure that you would spend over $60 on at a nail salon!  What is my secret you ask??  Press-on nails….yes, you heard me right.  The press-on nails you used to play with as a kid are now so good that they can pass for a very expensive, nail salon-worthy manicure!  Instead of those cute stickers, they now have very high-quality designs and patterns for every look.  My go-to brand for the most patterns and long-lasting nails is imPRESS.

imPRESS has so many amazing designs, from long to short and plain French to straight up over the top with bling!  The more extra the better for me, so I love that they have tons of designs with glitter, bling, and pearls.  Best part is that you won’t spend more than $10 on ANY of their designs!!  Even their beautiful, new couture collection is only $10.99.  They literally have nails to fit anyone and everyone.  And they are so cheap you can switch your look up every week and still pay less than if you had your nails done in a salon.   I get compliments all the time on how good my nails look and I am NEVER ashamed to tell them I did them myself.  People are always impressed!  😉  See what I did there….

The imPRESS nail kits come with everything you need to get salon-worthy nails in minutes.  You simply open the kit, clean and file your nails, then find the right size nails.  Once you have your nails ready to put on, all you have to do it peel the plastic backing off and stick them on.  I do hold them down for about 20 seconds to ensure a very secure hold.  Once you have them all applied, they will last for a week to two weeks.  Plus, each kit comes with enough nails to do two manicures! When they do come off, it’s painless and mess-free.  Unlike how acrylics can destroy your nails, these nails leave your nails strong and healthy underneath. 

You can go from blah nails to BAM nails in just minutes.  I don’t know about you, but I feel a million times more put together when my nails are on point.  So, forget the salon and struggling to recreate your own manicures.  Just get some imPRESS nails and get on with it!
