Abstract
A nail appliqué product for applying dry nail polish to a fingernail. The appliqué has two ends—each of which is functionally useful for coating a fingernail. The two ends are each differently sized so that with each inventive appliqué a user is presented with two different choices of sizes to match to her particular fingernail. In one preferred embodiment, a buffer section also is provided to ensure that the functional and aesthetic integrity is preserved when the appliqué is removed from its backing.
