Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips

I have used Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips a couple of times now and I just wanted to talk about how much I love them. They are really easy to apply and they last about a week before getting any significant chipping. For just about 10 bux I think that is pretty good! They also have a nice selection of patterns to choose from. Some I have used:

 I love these and I really recommend them to anyone who likes cool patterns on their nails, but doesn't have the time/budget/inclination to go to the salon or do it themselves. As far as I can tell it's made of like 10 or so thin layers of nail polish pre-rolled out and ready for application. Once they are on there they stick like the devil and you are ready to go. There are more than enough for each hand, in a few different sizes, to make sure they fit well on your fingers.
BONUS: You can keep the leftover fingers to use on accent nails for future manicures.

NOTE ABOUT IMITATIONS: I tried some cheap imitiations I found at Dealextreme and they were not worth the paper they were glued on. They went on terribly and took FOREVER to remove despite partially coming off the minute I washed my hands. If you like the look of these, do yourself a favor and buy the actual Sally Hansen brand, or one of comparable quality.

Lady Gaga Nails

So this Halloween I decided to go as Lady Gaga because
a: She is amazing and
b: I had a bunch of stuff that made this costume pretty simple to do.
I decided to do a manicure inspired by the one Lady Gaga wore in her Pokerface video. I used I only Date Warewolves from O.P.I as the base, and then used a variety of nail rhinestones I had lying arounf. Finally, it was all topped off with a coat of Seche Vite top coat so that nothing would fly off too easily.

And finally, a picture of the complete outfit:
