Unfortunately, you don’t get to see the overview of the different designs until after you download the app: erm—well, they certainly aren’t run-of-the-mill, in fact some of them are pretty out there, but the question is whether these works of art are office/everyday-wear appropriate.
The only thing this app can do is play 20 videos. Now, if only these would at least play without any problems. It takes several attempts to load a lot of them, others never load at all. Also, the app is only available in English, which could be problematic for our international community as some of the steps are explained via text only, no image.
I should also add that the videos which are featured in the app can also be found on YouTube. This leads me to ask the – debatably harsh – question: is this app functional or even useful?
Bottom line:
The featured videos may not correspond with my personal idea of beautifully manicured fingernails, but there are a lot of different styles to choose from. There’s a wide spectrum to get inspiration from, depending also on how much time you’re willing to spend on a look.
I decided to give the butterfly look a go. I was surprised to discover that making my nails presentable is a lot easier than I had assumed.
Please note that you will need quite bit of paraphernalia before your can achieve a look from the comfort of your own home, and two or three bottles of polish simply won’t cut it. So get informed before you take the plunge: pick a look and get the tools you need to achieve it.
The app doesn’t come with any other functions.
