Hi, my daughter has a nail polish fixation and has a cabinet full of the various brands etc. But now she has decided that maybe Jamberry would be kinda cool to try and possibly sell (I love her reasoning, I sell 31 and my sister TS so she is like I come from a family of direct sales). Anyway, I would obviously prefer her to possibly sign up under someone who has been selling a while and knows the ins and outs etc. We met a girl at a vendor event on Saturday but has only been selling for a short time.
If anyone sells or if you have a close friend who sells please message me and I'll have her contact you.
Thanks,
Karen
ps. If you have experience using the stuff and would like to comment on the good/bad please also share. Thanks.

I'll message you. I've been doing so for quite some time and it's a great business.
If anyone else has any questions about Jamberry as a customer or the opportunity, Send me a message or ask here.

Selling something that can be picked up at any corner drugstore and/or competing with stores like Ulta/Sephora for higher end items is a bad plan. The direct sales companies that have the best longevity are ones where their exact item can't be bought LITERALLY anywhere. People may buy the first time but in terms of reoccurring business, it's easier to run to CVS and pick up a pack. With 31 and TS, while there are competing products in the market, at least the products have some unique touches like fabrics, organizational though, flavors. The only unique thing going for Jamberry is their designs, and while a design is fun once in awhile, most adults don't want a design every time and even if you do, there are lots of designs at a drugstore.

I have some and do not like them. They were a waste of $50.

I had a party about a year ago- I love the idea of the product but in reality they are a giant pain in the ass. I feel bad because everyone who came to my party and bought them complains about them. They are hard to apply correctly and don't stay on as long as they are supposed to. Also, they are everywhere now- Target, Walgreens the beauty supply store all have some type of nail stickers.
I ended up selling my Jamberrys on ebay.

Stella, has your consultant ever followed up with you or your customers to help them? If you are unhappy with them,et me know. They have improved since the very beginning.
As for what is in store, what you see off the shelf is a polish based nail, so these will chip and dry out like a polish. Jamberry is a vinyl based nail with a silicone adhesive, so these will not chip and will never dry out or go bad.
As far as putting them on, the biggest secret I've found is using a rubber cuticle pusher, which can be purchased at Sally Beauty for a few cents or ask a consultant. We have them on hand.
The wooden orange sticks that we use for demos are ok, but I find you have better control with rubber.
Also, once I have the nail on, I'll give it another little blast of heat and continue to smooth to get that seal.
I'll come back with some pictures of the difference in lasting time. I'm on my phone without an app to do so.
When you remove them, pop the cuticle and work them off in oil (olive oil). The oil works very well to moisturize your cuticles, which is the fundemental of basic nail care.
Hope that helps and I am sorry about your experience Stella Lou. If you need help, let me know. That is what I do.

I think Jamberry looks fun, but I think they are fairly expensive. I haven't tried them because I can't get past the price.

I haven't tried them because I like to change my polish too often. I've tried vinyl stickers AND polish stickers. I get a lot better wear out of the ones made of polish as opposed to the vinyl stickers, but I suppose the Jamberry ones have better adhesive than the drugstore ones? Both are kind of a pain to apply but nice when you get them right. I've had polish ones from China Glaze last 8 days until I got absolutely sick of it and took it off. Stickers (Revlon, Maybelline, Kiss) started peeling after a shower/dishes.
