It was easy to apply and stretch to fit the nails. My fingers are small so I was able to cut it in half and use it again next time. When pressing the edges down and not fiddling with the adhesive, it lasted for so long! The first time I used it, I fiddled and didn’t file nail tip downwards (to seal it in) so it left a little gel sticking out past my natural nail for dirt to stick to and ended up lifting. But still that lasted a week. Removal was by far the easiest, I think the longer you wear it...
