It can take hours to paint your nails, clean up the mistakes, and wait for them to dry. We have a better idea: Fake it. Yup, if you’re looking for a cool design, but don’t have the time (or patience) to do-it-yourself, try nail stickers. Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips, $8.50, are cheap, fun, and come in a variety of patterns, prints, and textures.

And if you’re looking for length, try press-on nails, like Impress Press-On Manicure by Broadway Nails, $5.99. Don’t worry — they are nothing like the press-on’s of the ’80s. These nails look as flawless as a shellac mani, and are way thinner than the fake nails of the past.
