You'd be hard pressed to find a beauty lover who doesn't love having a killer manicure. Of course, what constitutes 'killer' status is different for everyone: Some love Kardashian-esque claws, some are nuts for nail art and some just want a short, chic shell pink set.
What we don't all love, however, is the time and money we often have to give up to get aforementioned incredible manicure. And that's why we're grateful for press-ons; not only are they a dynamite way to get in on your favourite nail art fads sans commitment (they usually last for about a week), but they've also come a long way lately, expanding to include an array of different styles and shapes.
Applying them is super simple too; most sets will come with both stickers (that generally keep them in place for a few days) and nail glue (which offers a heavier duty hold). Each pack will have a range of sizes, too, so you just find the perfect fit for each nail and then press them into place. Genius, right?
So, whether you're separated from your beloved salon or don't have the dexterity to master your desired designs (or hell, even a coat of bubble-free blush polish), here are the press-ons that get our seal of salon-level approval...
