Testing the Viral Gel Polish Nail Stickers from TikTok 

I knew that TikTok ad was too good to be true 😂

Omg! I loved the David segment 😂😂😂

We have these in Korea for just a few bucks btw but IT LITERALLY SAYS on the back to cut them down before you cure!!😂 I have no idea why they're misrepresenting themselves like that..

These stickers are not meant to be used to extend nails. They are, after all made of gel polish, and are meant to only provide nice design in a short time. No matter how long you cure gel polish, it is not meant to get as hard as gel.

Now we definitely need a video with Emily *and* David doing fun nail experiments!!

Love the bonus sections with hubby. You don't have to put his business on jump street but I was like "he must be an engineer" the way he approached all of this. I see the same thing in you, too, Emily, especially when you recreate designs! Love a good experiment, and love watching both of y'all!

These stickers aren't meant to replace acrylic nails. They are only nail polish with cute designs. They are basically off brand color street nail polish stickers. If you want longer nails, you would still need to have acrylics glued to your nail first or dip nails then use these stickers as quick, easy nail polish application!

OMG PLEASE include more of David doing his own nails. I think it's great to see someone with less experience than you when trying new products ❤

David is a cutie! Reminds me of my husband, up for anything. My husband is 63 and we have been married for 45 years (high school couple). I wanted to thank you, Emily. I have been doing my own nails for about 9 months. I found you recently and you are such a help! I have been binge-watching your videos! I have learned so much! Thank you so much!💚

David did so good! I’ve always been intimidated by e-files but after seeing David use that file like a pro even though he’s never used one before has given me the confidence to try one! Thank you Emily and David!

I demand (request really) a beginner’s session from David for every new thing you try because you make it look so easy and I always wonder how hard it is to start hahah

Protect this man at ALL costs. I wish I would have known the love and support of this guy my whole life. You both are absolutely gem.

Off topic but I love your whole vibe in this video- your periwinkle shirt, your hair, your makeup. It all looks good!

Just wanted to come and say that the sticky back is actually a medical grade adhesive and that's why it remains sticky, not uncured gel. If you use a non acetone nail polish remover, the sticky will come off without melting the actual gel layer. 😊 Hope that helps.

Every time David was like ‘…Emily does it like this… Emily says…’ was so cute!! Loved the surprise segment! Very asmr nail clipping lol

The dashing diva gel stickers are awesome! I do a lot of crafting and work with my hands and they last 2 weeks and are hard. Also not meant to stick beyond nail.

david doing his own nails was so adorable! they look great😊

Those gel polish stickers are good for long natural nails or extensions for someone who doesn’t want to put extra effort for designs etc.. I think. At least, I would use them that way 😅 like how David does 😆

The Dashing Give semi cured strips from Sally’s are awesome. I’ve had mine on for almost 3 weeks. They’re pretty strong and the regular sticker ones are pretty good too. They even say to cut it before curing.

See before putting on any nail stickers like these, I use a hairdryer or a heat lamp on them as it makes the sticker softer and more flexible for stretching (if needed). They make the application far far easier. And as for cutting the sticker so it fits the nail, yeh that can be done or the other option is bend it over the tip of the nails whilst the stickers are soft and then set them with UV lamp. Once that’s done, file the tips downwards to get the excess nail sticker off. It leaves it far more neater and professional looking x

Omg a "Nail or fail" series trying random nail things like dollar tree items and what not. Would be so 🔥 fiiireee

The tiktok video is illegal advertising. A company cannot show a product performing in a way that its impossible for it to, even if they say "not recommended." Those stickers will never cure stiff on their own, so they intentionally did something else in the tiktok ad without disclosing it - which is not ok. Its genuinely a crime. So whatever backlash they receive for that ad, they deserve.

I love his genuine interest in the hobby.... for science!

They seem to be soft gel and soft gel will never cure fully rigid. They are always pliable. Even if you fully cured gel polish, it will be flexible after curing.

I have no idea why i enjoyed the segment with your husband doing his nails so much. He did a great job!

David actually gave me ideas with his little experiment at the end 😉💕 Interesting product but might be best used for decorating instead of full coverage

Your husband is the best ❤ miss my hubby so much 😢he passed August of 2019 and he used to let me do whatever to him❤ he was the best hubby of 14years and together for 19 and father ....but you are blessed with a supportive hubby. Great video as always stay healthy, happy and blessed😊

I haven’t made it to the end of the video yet but wanted to comment in case it’s not mentioned later that it’s not the strength of the lamp that matters, each gel is formulated to cure with certain wavelengths. Not every lamp is calibrated to cure every gel fully.

I've used a similar product from the brand Dashing Diva, My sister sent me the tiktok ad for that other brand and I had to explain to her that it was basically an alternative to using a gel polish.

FINALLY THE TRUTH🌸🌸🤗🤗

I’ve tried ohora gel stickers and those got super hard. They were also matte?? I think they sold a top coat you could use as well with it. I was honestly confused lol. but I felt like they weren’t curing right at first so I cured them a bit more and they definitely got hard. But then they chipped like crazy and I hated that. I’m pretty sure I over cured them, which I didn’t think was a thing. I have long nails naturally and thought it would be a nice easy option, but they were a HARD PASS from me.

Great video ❤ it's good to see that David supports you so much and gets involved. You're both amazing ❤

Have you heard of the brand dashing diva? It’s another brand that does gel nail stickers. I used them when I did my gel x nails on top of the extensions, top coated it and cured. I think they kinda of cured hard, I remember correctly, and they lasted 2 1/2 weeks. So I think gel nail stickers are better on top of extensions rather than them being the extensions. Thank you so much for the vids and the longer videos 🥰❤️

EXCELLENT IDEA DAVID! I thought it would work as well. Thanks for trying.

I love how both you and David really like experimenting with these things. Its fun to watch and it inspires me too 😁

I have some of these nails from the Jelcie brand and now I want to try to see if mine will get super hard! 😅 I was hoping you would test one nail applying a gel top coat and see if that makes a difference. I'm going to have to do some experimenting! Hahaha! This was fun to watch though! Thanks for sharing! ♥ Jenny

I’m so happy you tested these because I was definitely going to buy them 😩

Aww, David did a great job! I feel like I would have the same issue as him and just pick these off in a couple days😅 I'm also really confused why the brand would've posted that video since I feel like, without that video, it would be understood that these are just meant to be like gel polish, not a hard curing tip. Such a weird decision on their part!🤔

I hadn't seen the TikTok on these, but Thank Emily😁As always your review was so well done. You are always so honest in a kind fasion. And David was awesome for someone who doesnt do nails. He did a really good job. Thank you both so much😀

Kind of obsessd with this makeup look! Wow 😍!!

i guess it would be a good choice for people who cant have a full manicure. Put it on for the weekend, and peel it off before Monday. Thanks for the video!

Hey,Emily!If you are reading this, I want you to know that the makeup in this video emphasizes your eyes amazingly. It suits you very much😍

i know this is irrelevant to the video but your makeup looks so good! you should post a video about your makeup routine.

I use the dashing diva ones and they are working great so far.

I exclusively use these nail stickers to do my nails. My nails grow pretty long and strong but I always put a base and gel topcoat on top to make them stronger. I'm guessing that the tiktok you saw had a gel topcoat on top of the sticker.

A video idea could be attempting to make your own semi cured nail wraps! 💅❣️ love the video!

I’ve been wondering about this company! I’ve been using Ohora semi cured nail stickers for a couples years now! With those I’m able to extend a couple centimeters, but I also use a gel top coat on top and bottom (to get rid of that sticky part and to harden the nail). I definitely think these are targeted for a specific type of person who isn’t as skilled with all the different nail products out there. Thanks for the honest review! I appreciate it!

Good job David!! You did an amazing job!! I loved this content sooooo much!! ❤❤

I haven’t used this company but I have used nail stickers like these that you cure on your nail. They were alright but don’t last long on their own but if you add a gel top coat they will and the edges won’t rub off. I mostly used them on the full nail tips as well. And I liked seeing David try using them. He did good! If there’s a next time.. cut the extra off by running the file straight down the nail don’t go back & forth on the edge, only down. Then add a gel top coat. They should last him longer & they’ll be hard so he can’t pick it. As to picking the apple video deal..my guess is they put several layers of gel top coat on it to make the “sticker nail” hard then they picked pieces out of the apple with it. They just didn’t tell people that part. 🤣

obsessed with your makeup aahh.

I like wen you test different types of nails 💅🏽. I love ❤️ watching your longer videos it’s freaking awesome. Bonus scenes are always good

I can’t wait to watch this video after work 🥰. I love your videos so much. I always want more but I’ve seen them all 😩 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Your Hair & Makeup Look Amazinggg , Love Your Videos And Thanks For Testing This Out Lol I Enjoyed It 😂❤💅🏾

Maybe putting a layer of gel or top coat might cure over them and make them hard enough to wear.

This is how you do a review, thank you both. ❤

❤ ur nails and ur work is AMAZING

I love when you test things out for science. And the longer the video the better. Also the bonuses were great. TFS. 💋

2 videos in the same week?? Thank youu

your uploads make me so happy. thank you. 💗

Great video! So detailed and loved that your husband tried himself since anyone like me isn’t experienced showed a more realistic experience. Thanks so much x

First off: I need you to make a million more videos because I've watched almost all of them and don't know what I'm gonna do when I run out 2: What lipgloss do you use?? You're probably asked all the time, but it's always bomb!

We need more of David doing his own nails. I absolutely love that part!!! The love between you two is beautiful, Emily😊

Daviiiiid! That was so cute. You two are so awesome. He had me scared with that angle and the e-file but he got it, lolol.

love your makeup in this video em ♡

Em, you’re my girl but I LIVED for the David segments. 😂 He did such a good job!

Not David loving the prep work. Lol It’s my least favorite part! 😂 he’s a treasure

your lip piercings are so cool! i've never seen that placement done before, but it matches really well with the two on your nose.

🤣🤣this is hilarious. Dashing diva has made these for like ever.

I’ve never been so early 😮 me binge watching all ur old videos and u posted yay!!!

We need a video where David does a voice over lol or a complete 10 nail "David draws my nails" video! You two are so adorable!

Thanks for the very informative video. Loved the Bonus Segments with David 🫶🏽

Emily, I just want to say that you're one of my fav RU-vidrs! I love your videos and I love your videos! I am hooked

I love that your husband let's you do his nails. I also love his little tutorial he had going on too. 😂

i wish they hadn't have used a misleading ad

aaaaa i love the makeup you have on

Yaaaay David! The nail prep was satisfying lol

Made this one on time

okaaaay David, we see you! he’s learned very well from you Emily!!

Love the video! Also I think David did a great job!!

David is so sweet! Thanks for testing this out for us!

I’m so glad I saw this, I tried to buy these last night but my phone froze at the checkout and I never finished it!! Your channel has saved my more then once!! You always have such real reviews and real fails that I’ve learned from!

Gel would never cure hard like a nail would, it will always have to be on top of a tip to do that. I think that girl in the second video was confused lol

Yeees everything i needed was emily's video tonight ❤️🤩

I love the trial and error videos! SN: Not sure if David is on any type of fitness/health journey, but if he is, tell him his progress is showing through his hands! Great work!

My only concern with these is, if they dont cure all the way, aren't you risking getting contact dermatitis??? 🧐 Also you makeup always slays

stretching decals means as they dry out they pull/conttract on your nail or on the false nail. all decals require a clear top coat to set and cure to be dry and last

You are such an inspiration❤❤❤❤❤

I always thought that sticker nails (the paper ones and uv ones) needed to be cut at your nails' lenght, and not to be extended 😅

my thing is are they really safe to be touching with bare hands if they aren’t fully cured? i’m not sure if the company addressed this so i could totally be wrong, but that was one of my first thoughts haha

Thanks for this balanced and detailed review. I ordered some of these but have not tried them yet. I think I am better equipped to get the best result possible now that I have seen your examples and demos.

You're very kind to the brand, ultimately, it was false advertising, they should never have shown the apple part, they did that because they knew it would attract a market that prefers slightly longer than short nails.... I think it's manipulative and they've done their brand disservice

IS THAT A KROUMI SHIRT????????? 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Love how supportive he is of your interests 🥺 great marriage, congrats. Thanks for the review, i knew they wouldnt work but I had hope...

I love seeing David’s progress with nails 😁 - love to see til do your nails again sometime xD

I bought many of them from one brand ( I forgot) the brand. But never used them. They’re in my ever ended pile of nail products I bought from many brands that I never used just keep them in their boxes and then put the individual packages in bigger boxes

Girl you’re supposed to cut it to your natural length

Loved this video,thanks for testing it. David I thought your idea was really good, however I do think you could save the cut off bits and use them as stickers for another set. Cut to any shape you want. ❤

Lol David’s bonus clip 😂 loved it!

Starts at 6:45. Seriously.

In the videos I've seen they use a flashlight cure. Then she taps it with her nail to show it hardens, after that she clips off the excess with regular nail clippers.
