Transparent Nail Swatches Sticks, Fan-shaped Nail Art Tips

I was looking for a good way to display my nail polish colors and looked at a few options. I finally settled on this due to price and how easy it is to use. I’m so happy I got this, here’s why:-Works with gel: I was really worried that they wouldn't work with gel nails. I didn't see any reviews saying whether or not they would, but I figured for the price it’s worth a try . Rest assured, they work perfectly with gels. I did it just like I would my own nails, I used a Gelish base, then my color, then a top coat. I did 3 sticks at a time to make it go faster. I would say with my Gelish LED light I spent about 1-2 hours total doing them all. Not bad!-Easy to chose color: I wanted these nails for three main reasons. First, when I go to the beauty supply store to buy new colors I often get colors too similar because I forget what’s in my collection. I just take this with me now so I can see easily what I need. Second, when I do my own nails or friends nails, we usually have to open the bottle to look at the colors. The swatch on the outside of the bottle usually isn't a good representation. Now we can see at a quick glance all the colors. The name is on the stick part, a Sharpie works fine. Then it’s easy to hold a glitter over the solid color to see what it will look like. On my glitters I do half with one coat on the plastic nail, ¼ with two coats and ¼ with 3 coats of glitter, so I can see the covers. Lastly, I'm starting to experiment more with nail art. With these I can practice on a larger nail that I can move around to get a good angle. Then I can have them all as kind of a nail library of all the designs I can do. My daughters friends love coming over and choosing a color and design from these fans.- Adding: I have 28 colors on my color fan now. I obviously will be adding and taking off over time. My nail art fan I only have about 7 designs on. When I find a design I like on Pinterest I try it on the clear nail and add it to the fan. Some of the other options I was looking at, like a wheel style, aren't as flexible.-Price: I can’t believe I organized my whole gel collection for less than $3 (well $6 for two fans). When I took it to the beauty supply store I had 3 people ask me where I got it and how much. They were surprised that it was so reasonable. It would also be good just to practice designs on for that price. Since I will have quite a few nails left over I plan to do them with various designs I can do. I did order these from 2 different sellers and both were exactly the same product.The only minor issue is the screw it comes on. Since I’m only using roughly half of the nails there is a lot of extra room. I've been meaning to get a binder ring type thing for it instead, but it hasn't been a very high priority. I was debating between white and clear, but am so happy I went with clear. I think it shows the color more realistically how it will look on my nails. Some of the light colors might really look brighter on the white. Overall it is definitely worth the few bucks and I can honestly say “I love it”!!!

I have a giant collection of Nail Polish and a budding collection of Gelish and I LOVE nail art! I bought 2 packages of these nail tips and I love them! I don't know how I ever lived without. They are big enough to get a great swatch and I love that they are clear so you get a true color. They cure beautifully in UV and LED lamps. IF I HAD to say anything negative it would be that they have a square tip so its hard to place it on your finger and get a good fit at the cuticle. That doesn't bother me a bit but you could always file it so its round.

Love them, you can add colors when ever and put them in color order. You do need to ruff up the surface for best bond, I used a 100 grit buffer by sand turtle. Wonderful you will love them. I used mine for my led gel polish collection. Cured them for the recommended cure time. I did use my UV top coat under my UV lamp, reason is that the top coat is less expensive than the led gel top coat. Also the UV does help with discoloration of the gel colors. You can stand the screw upright and it fans out the sticks beautifully for display

Very happy with these! I have built up a pretty large collection of nail polish over the years and get frustrated trying to find the right color when painting my nails. It never looks the same as it does in the bottle.I'd been looking for some sort of nail sample thing and stumbled upon these. I was weary of buying some white plastic ones because my nails obviously aren't white and the color looks different on them. But these being clear is perfect! You can hold up the sample to your natural nail and see what it will really look like! And you can see what layered colors/glitter will look like just by layering the samples!I decided to only buy one set, thinking there was no way I had 50 polishes... Wrong! Turns out I have 56, not including clear polishes. Already ordered a second set.I had a lot of fun just painting these too! Like doing 5 different manicures, but with every color! I gave each sample two coats of color and one coat of clear top polish. I think they look great. The polish seems to stick well.My only issue is the little rod it comes with to hold them all together. They make the sticks hard to move around and it will be a pain to add more sticks in the future. I'm planning on getting some sort of ring to hold them on instead.

I've always loved my nail polishes, but never quite knew what color(s) I had available, as I had no real organizational scheme for my collection. I recently bought a rack for the often-used polishes, and decided to organize even further with these swatches. They're handy to carry with me when I go out to the beauty supply store with my friend (we both use these swatches, and often look for good deals... my husband says we are polish hoarders) to make sure that I'm not inadvertently purchasing a color that I may already have in my collection. I also have them attached to the front of the bins that I have my polishes stored in that didn't make it to the rack. It helps in not having to dig through all of the bins for a specific color, I can simply check the swatches and then look in the corresponding bin.For the price, they're totally worth the value, and pretty much indespensable for anyone who loves polish as much as I do. In a professional setting, they'd be even more helpful - and they're far more attractive (in my humble opinion) than the nail wheels.
