Why This Deal Is Worth It

I used to spend two hours every other Tuesday at the salon, watching my bank account drain for a manicure that chipped within days. The Semata press-ons are different because they include a full prep kit with quality adhesive tabs and glue. Unlike the flimsy drugstore sets that snap when you open a soda, these acrylics have enough structure to hold their shape through a week of laundry and dishes. The 3D bows and pearls are secured well enough that I haven't had one snag on a sweater yet, which is the usual death knell for these types of designs. These are for the working mom who has a board meeting at nine and a school volunteer shift at two. If you are tired of looking down at chipped polish while typing or feeling embarrassed by overgrown cuticles because you cannot find a free hour to get to a professional, this kit gives you a polished look in under fifteen minutes. Saving that two-hour block of time is equivalent to four extra loads of laundry or a full week of uninterrupted sleep. The one thing you need to know is that these are medium-long, so they take some getting used to if you are accustomed to short nails. Keep your movements deliberate for the first few hours, and definitely avoid water for the full five hours after application. If you rush the drying time, the adhesive will fail, and you will lose the time you just saved.
