My Nail Evolution (+ Jamberry Giveaways!)

You already know that I can't whistle.
I also can't paint my finger nails worth bunk.

When I first heard of Jamberry nails a year ago, I didn't pay much attention.  Then my cousin signed up as a consultant and I saw how cute her nails were.  She had a party and I went.  Oh. my. gosh.  Finally I can have good looking nails!


Jamberrys are nail shields. You apply a little heat (like from a hair dryer) to activate the adhesive, stick it on your nail, and file off the excess.  It is seriously easy.  If I can master this, anyone can!  Plus, they have a great deal that I took advantage of.  When you buy 3 sets, the 4th one is FREE.  4 sets is enough to do my finger nails 16 times!  Whoop whoop!

What I loved too was that when it was time for my sample nail shield to come off, it came off easily and  left no damage to my nail.  Plus, they are Made in the USA!  How awesome is that??  With over 250 designs to choose from, you're sure to find just what you're looking for.

Buy 3, get 1 free still not enough nails for you?  You can host a fun facebook party with Amanda.  You just invite your friend to the "event" online, Amanda does all the work, and you earn more FREE nail sets!  Hostesses can get exclusive designs too, like this cute Popsicle one for May hostesses:



If you are nail obsessed and need some part-time income, Jamberry is also accepting new consultants.  More information on that is here.  I am not a sales rep but I'm sure Amanda could walk you through how to get your own website set up and start your parties!

Now, on to the GIVEAWAYS (plural!!)
Amanda has two ways for you to win!  

First, 25 names will be chosen to win a sample set!  TWENTY FIVE of you can try Jamberry!  You will get one sample along with instructions on how to use it. It is designed to be cut in half so that you can do an accent nail on each hand.  Accents are all the rage right now.  Here's an example I found online of a cute manicure using Jamberry for an accent: (sample designs may vary from the one shown)

AND, 1 lucky person will win an entire set of Jamberrys!  A full set ($15 value) will do your nails FOUR times.  
This is the autism awareness design.
The design the winner receives may vary and is up to the Jamberry Consultant to determine.

Giveaway open to U.S. residents only (international shipping is too pricey), ages 18 and over.  Winners have 24 hours to respond to email notification before a new winner will be drawn.  I will choose 26 winners via Rafflecopter. The first name will be the winner of the full set, the remaining 25 will win the sample.

Good luck!

UPDATED: Winners have been chosen and are being notified!  :)

    1. If you use them on your finger nails--up to 2 weeks. The sample one I had on lasted 10 days and was still looking good when I pulled it off. I put a new full set on my nails yesterday. :)

      I think if you do your toenails they can last more like 3 weeks, but I haven't tried my toes (yet!). Good luck in the giveaway!

  2. They actually last 4-6 weeks on your toes. Mine normally last about 4 weeks and could probably last longer but I like to change them!!

    1. Yes, those are cute! It is my understanding that from time to time they change their charitable wraps so I'm curious to see what the next design and charity will be!

  27. Loving the grey polka dots! I have Sally Hansens on my nails right now and I love them bc they stretch to fit my nail perfectly. Do these have any stretch to them or would I be stuck trying to trim to fit the bed completely? I've had that problem with other brands before.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I wouldn't say that these "stretch"...I've never used Sally's so I am not familiar with how those work. The Jamberry's come in a variety of sizes so you just hold them up (the backing is clear) and see which one is the best fit for each of your nails. I didn't need to trim at all when I did my mint chevron last week. :)
