I’m so excited to finally share these nails wraps from www.NailPolishCanada.com! This design is called Jazzi and they’re made by NCLA. Aren’t they super bright and fun? I have been wearing them for 3 days straight.. and for a nail girl like me – that feels like a really long time! So let’s get to the review!
WHAT YOU GET:
- 44 nail wraps – enough for two manicures and probably some toes or accent nails (and if you trim the remaining wraps with scissors you can get even more manis out of it)
- a nail file
- instruction sheet- with tips & tricks from the pros on the reverse side
HOW IT WORKS:
I like that this product recommends a base coat before applying the wraps. I always try to protect my nails- so this was a thumbs up for me.
I am a total noob at applying nail wraps and I got a few wrinkles with these Jazzi wraps. I imagine that these would be easier to apply on short nails. My nails are very long at the moment so I had a lot of surface area to try to cover! Luckily my boo boos weren’t too noticeable in real life.
Here’s a quick vid from NCLA that explains how to apply them:
WEARABILITY:
After 24 hrs I had a few edges lift up so I applied some more basecoat underneath, and some more topcoat on top. This worked just fine to re-adhere the wraps and freshen up my mani.
Below are pictures at day 1 and day 3. Not much difference at all! It wasn’t until the end of day 3 that a few bits of wrap lifted off on my dominant hand- almost like a small chip on the tip of my nail. I probably could have put on another topcoat to extend the wear… but I really wanted to test out the removal of these wraps. You know how it is- when your nails start to peel you sometimes get this uncontrollable urge to peel it all off LOL!
REMOVAL:
If you dig under one corner of your nail wrap- the whole sticker should peel right off. It was a lot easier than I expected. It seems like the basecoat peeled off along with the wrap too because my nails were matte and bare afterwards. There were a couple of bumpy ridges on my ring and pinky finger… but I was able to buff them out.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Applying the nail wraps wasn’t as easy breezy as shown in the video… I struggled with finding the right size for my nails, or sometimes I stuck them on crooked. But as long as you didn’t press them down too hard you should be able to lift them off and try again. I did that several times. They seemed to last ok… 3 days for me. But ladies with shorter nails may see more wear-time as their tips don’t take as much of a beating throughout the day. I’d recommend re-applying a topcoat every day to help extend the wear.
I had a couple application issues- but even with the wrinkles my nails came out really pretty! This design is so eye-catching. I got a lot of compliments on them. They were fun to wear too- something different than regular old nail polish. They’re great for a special occasion… or just for something fun to try!

Those are so cute!!! My aunt gave me a gift card for a nail wrap website for Christmas but I haven’t used it yet…maybe I should! 🙂
I’m surprised you haven’t redeemed it yet! lol
Adoooooore the design!
Pressed send before I was finished lol!
I have those urges that if my wrap peels, I pick on it further lol.
I’ve used wraps once before and I loved my design but it started peeling at the tips so quickly. It’s nice to take a break from nailart though and think that wraps are great for people who want to do nailart but can’t or don’t have the time.
Yup, i agree! Which brand wraps did you try?
Wow, those are very eye catching and look like so much fun !!! I enjoy your blog so much !!! I never knew there were so many things you could do with nails, so amazing !!!! How awesome they wanted you to review them !!!
Thank you steph! Yes, i was so happy to try these wraps out! I’ve seen them before but never got my hands on them til now! 😀
At first sight I thought you did a watermarble. 😉 But reading further I noticed it …. wraps… They are so gorgeous. I guess wraps never apply neatly, at least not on my nails, I always got wrinkles 😉 But they are great for a fun mani, or on vacation or for who’m don’t often do nail arts.
super cool. I thought they were a sugar spun design. So eye catching
