CLOSEDManicure Clean Up: Q-Tips Precision Tips Review & $25 AmEx Gift Card Giveaway

Sunday, September 9, 2012

I've mentioned it before, but rarely do I ever clean up manicures. It's just the way I apply polish, during a normal application, it's just very unusual for polish to end up flooding my cuticle. However, nail art is a whole other beast. Between sponging gradient nails and water marbles, I ALWAYS end up using Q-tips. Actually, if you read through my previous tutorials you'll notice that I always use the brand name Q-tips.

The reason that I'm picky about brand name Q-tips is that I always feel like the cheaper generic cotton swaps are flimsy and each cotton swap has barely any cotton on it at all. There are three things in life that I think people should splurge on and go for the brand name stuff; toilet paper, laser eye surgery and Q-tips.

Recently I tried out the new Precision Tips Q-Tips. Uhm, this are kind of FANTASTIC. The reason being that the traditional Q-tips are rounded so while they remove polish off the cuticle, it's hard to get a perfect crisp neat line close to the nail. These Precision Tips give you more control with the fine tip. I've been using them non-stop for perfect manicure clean up.

With the Q-tips sent for review, there was also a $25 American Express gift card. I'd like to pass this gift card on to my readers.

Giveaway: one $25 American Express Gift Card.
