Don't waste your money on...

[Wink Holliday]

On a whim, and in a hurry for a party, I bought a new product from a company called Incoco. It's touted as "the world's first 100% real self-stick nail polish" and is sort of a nail polish "sticker" that is supposed to go on smooth, dry, and last up to 14 days.

Well, it's dry, I'll give it that. However, even though I followed all instructions and used the included tools to clean and buff my nails before application, I still couldn't get the enamel strips to adhere evenly. They bubbled around my cuticles, and wrinkled near the tips of my nails. After three failed attempts to cover a single nail, I gave up and switched back to regular nail polish.

What products have you tried that aren't worth the money?

Oh god I know what you're saying about that kind of nail polish! I cant stand it! It never looks right :{

I'm gunna have to say that the products that aren't worth the money for me personally are the bed-head brand hair products and another one that I can't remember off the top of my head, cat-walk I think. They come in really bright colored bottles with cool writing on them and they're expensive.

Now, as a girl with short hair that strives for volume, those super stick "spiking" gels they come out with and the heavy duty wax and s***, totally does not work for me. Not worth the money and the clean-up I say. Plus, when it dries on your hair, it gets all flaky and white and takes on that "Something about Mary" look, if you know what I mean. LOL

I find the best thing to get my hair to do what I want is the cheapest, most ghetto hairspray out there. Go figure!

I have one of those! The lady was really pushy trying to get me to buy it. I don't do my nails very often as my job does not allow nail polish, but that little square thing is amazing. Looks like a fresh coat of clear polish every time!

Delyssia is actually right about that 4 sided nail bufffer! it is like magic :) you can buy them at Sally's Beauty Supply though at a fraction of the price (like $4 i think), Bath and Body Works also makes them now.

I have to agree with that one! but one way to tone and get rid of that cellulite is pilates.. I have been doing it for years. I dont do it regularly but you notice a difference the first week.

I've done work for clinique, estee lauder, lancome and mac and I always have problems with bleeding red lipstick from any brand. Lauder and Mac both have a really nice red lip pencil that does the trick without bleeding, I would recommend that!
