Primark false nails

Has anyone used Primark false nails?
I'm going to a wedding this weekend but don't have enough time to get my nails done.
Primark nails look amazing. But how do they look on the hand? How long do they last when applied, or will they ping off after an hour?

Theyre fine on but wont last more than a couple of days. Make sure you pack the glue in your handbag just in case one comes a little loose but you shouldnt have any issue for one day. Grab a bottle of real nail polish remover with acetone in it for removing any stubborn bits of glue when you want to take them off.

They're excellent but the glue that comes with them is rubbish.
Superdrug do an own brand glue that you can just brush on like nail polish. It's only a couple of quid. Get that one.

Thank you - I'll give them a go.

Do I need to cut and file my own nails first?

My dd prefers Primark nails to any other she's tried, she does cut and file her nails first but generally they last ages on Her, usually about 2 weeks

They're the best false nails I've used!! Mine stayed on for 3 weeks. Tip for you use the false nail glue that you apply with a brush. You can get an even coverage on the whole nail so when you press the false nail on to it they stick better

I wear them and they last between 10 days and 3 weeks on me. I also buy a brush on nail glue and don’t use the one that comes with it.

Thank you.

As luck would have it, there is a Superdrug next door to my local Primark.

I'd also recommend having a look at the press on nails that Superdrug sell. They don't last quite as long as the glued ones but they are so easy to put on and don't leave annoying gluey bits on your nails. imPress nails I think they are. I bought some last week and they were on special offer then
