Anyone use nail wraps instead? I've starting using them (no MLM companies) and I'm just looking for any tips. I've mostly tried Lilly & Fox

These are the Lilly & Fox Desert Sand set. This is about 6 days of wear. I don't think I've quite got the hang of it yet. I hate MLM, but I was getting frustrated with going to nail salons because my nails just kept getting more & more damaged. While these nail wraps aren't perfect I can at least use them to cover my nails while I try to grow some of the damage out.
These wraps look pretty good on you!
I tried some time ago the wraps by Maniko but I was not that happy with them because they did not fit my nails - I never thought my nails would be "wide". Next thing was that it only worked with longer nails as it was supposed to put it around the tip.
Perhaps I gave up too soon and should have tried another brand?

For this week I tries these
I liked that they matched the desks at work. These aren't Lilly & Fox but from Amazon. These are what's called "1$ wraps" and should be a step down in quality from LF but honestly these lasted just as long.
The were actually just 56 cents each. Which I did like the look of the LF better, it doesn't seem like the extra 2.49bucks for LF translated into any longer wear. I'm just going to post my weekly nails here, as I learn about all the different wrap companies & learn better application techniques. Please let me know if anyone has tips or questions!. I hope doing this saves me money & helps the health of my nails.

This week I tried Dashing Diva. I really liked this design but I had a really hard time with the thin material of this company and they nicked almost immediately so I'm taking them off on day 5
I’m going to try them, I just bought a brand called Beaolata on Amazon, they had pretty good reviews. It looks like you paint a clear coat over them. Will report back!
This week I used the DD Glow which are thicker but I still had the same problems. Going to try a different brand this week
This week I tried a set from Nail Fox. I'm still having problems with the "shrinkage" at the top of the nail. I'll have to try some different techniques
This week I tried another Lilly and Fox wrap. I really liked this design but this having some problems with application. I think im going to use a base coat next time instead of just the top coat. Also I've been soaking the wraps off with coconut oil instead of using nail polish remover. I think that will help my nail health
