Review - Kiss Stick-On Strips




I'm an avid Dollar General shopper, so I was particularly thrilled when I spotted these Kiss nail stickers during my last visit. For $3 you get 18 stickers that are supposed to last up to 10 days. Not too shabby in my opinion, considering most of the other brands will cost you upwards of $8.

The application was really simple; apply sticker to a clean nail and not touching the cuticle. Then smooth down and shape. The way that I shape is fold the sticker down at the tip then run a file vertically down the nail tip to cut the sticker off.

The design I'm wearing in this manicure is called "All That Glitters." I thought is was fall appropriate and pretty, albeit a bit busy. I only did accent nails as I felt an entire manicure of this would be a bit much. The polish I had that was the closest match was Essie's "Mink Muffs" which is actually a touch cooler than the base color of the sticker, but from a distance it's hard to tell.


I bought 3 different designs of stickers, but get this, 2 of them have 2 different variations of the design so that's an added bonus in my book.

Wear wise, I'm on day 2 of this manicure and can note a slight amount of tip wear and no lifting. Do I think they will last 10 days? Hard to tell....I like to change up my manicure more frequently than that and will probably never know.

This is a fun and affordable alternative for nail stickers! Let me know how they work for you!
