I have a super simple guide that I've created that will give you a step-by-step list on how to perfectly style your open shelving effortlessly each time! Since finding Dashing Diva Gel Strips 4 years ago, I have completely stopped getting nail salon manicures!

Some kits do not have individual protective strips on each strip, rather, there is one clear sheet per row. The strips are made from real gel nail polish, meaning you can layer polishes without them peeling off of the strip.

My Walmart only has about 8 sets of nail strips to choose from but my Ulta has a lot more sets, including pedicure sets.

For the others, I saw that you could file down the nail to get to the part where the strip wasn’t lifting.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I also suffered several broken nails while wearing these strips, as they do not provide as much strength and protection as traditional nail lacquer. I do want to note that this kit contains everything that you need to successfully apply and wear the strips.
