Touch In Sol - CaitlynF review for #1 Cherry On Tip

This breaks my typical format and made me try a nail product, which I haven’t done in years. That’s how easy it was to apply the Touch in sol nails. But I couldn’t give 5 stars bc they’re a bit expensive and I’m not sure if I’d purchase them again. I was able to try them thanks to Picky and Touch in Sol in exchange for an honest review. APPLICATION ✨ Super easy instructions. As a run down, you file the nail, then wipe it with alcohol. The gel nail strips are pretty long, so you press them on then cut off the extra. Then you cure them for 60 seconds and file away the extra gel/fix the shape. ✨ Tip: have the gel nail strip end exactly or as close to where your natural nail ends. On a few nails I had a corner of extra gel and it wouldn’t cure all the way. The next few days the extra gel was bending and wasn’t like a hard nail. ✨ There’s 2 different shapes for the nail bed to get a more accurate fit. A more rounded narrow one and a more square one. My nail beds are kinda weird so I had to just make it work, but it’s good to have options. ✨ It’s that easy! It took me about 30 mins bc I applied one by one and the lamp seems like it only cures one nail at a time. WEAR 🚨Side note: I work at FedEx Office but I’m still moving a bunch of packages, so the nails went through more of a test than usual ✨ They lasted in pretty good condition (like the first pic) for about 5 days. ✨ But on the 1st day there was a tiny chip on my thumb, and the 4th day a bigger chip on the other thumb as the other nails started to lift. ✨ Somewhat short wear seems like it’s bc the strip stays kind of “gummy”. It almost feels like a silicone cap you’d put on cat nails 😂 ✨ VERY comfortable to wear. There were no sharp edges or even worse, a thick layer of acrylic you can see bulging above the nail. It didn’t interfere with any of my tasks either
