Born Pretty Store Full Nail Water Decals!

 Hi guys! I have one more born pretty store item to show you all after this! This was sent to me free of charge in exchange for a review and I loooove them! Just look how cute those flowers are! These are so so so easy to use too! This was the first time I used a full nail decal but they were so amazingly perfect and easy to apply! They were a little on the small side though, the smallest two just barely fit the nails I used them on, but they could be used for a partial decal if they're too small for your nails! 

I used Sinful Colors Snow Me White as the base color, and the dots are an LA Colors mini. It came in a two pack with a purple mini and the pack itself was called Bloody Mary but the nail polishes themselves didn't have names on them. 
They came in a package like this, and there are ten decals total and I chose to only use two as an accent for this look. But you could do all ten nails, or only one, if you wanted to. 

They're made super simple to use by the directions on the back of the package. Except for one thing. It says to soak them in water, then slide them onto the nail off the paper backing. This is wrong. If you do this you'll get a solid white decal with the flowers barely showing through from the front. 

What you want to do if remove the protective plastic from the front of the decal after you cut out the piece you want to use. Soak it in water for about 10-15 second. Then either using your fingers or tweezers, separate the paper backing from the decal and place it onto the nail. While it's still wet, slide it around to get it into the right position, (Make sure the polish underneath is totally dry before even starting the decal process), smooth it out to get any kinks and wrinkles out. let it dry, then fold over any excess at the tip and file it away then add your top coat and tada! 

These are super easy, and would be great for those that would love to get more detailed designs, or even just simple designs, but aren't any good at nail art!

Argyle pattern nails!

Hi y'all! I have some more nail art for you all today! An argyle print pattern with a water decal accent! I got these little decals from kkcenterhk a few months back, and they're just so cute. And I actually did these nails right before I went to look at some bunnies so I had to have the little bunnies with me for that! Actually I got the decals right after Foofy passed away, so it was my little way of taking my furbaby with me to meet my new possible furbaby. but ANYWAYS. 

For these nails I used two coats of Sinful Colors Pink Forever and I used acrylic paints in white and a lighter shade of pink to make the argyle pattern. And everything is top coated with Sally Hansen Insta-dri top coat! I loooved how these came out! 

Let me know what you all think and if there's anything you'd like to see on the blog in the comments below!

kkcenterhk Brush and Water Decals

**these items were sent to me free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion**
Hi y'all!I have some more items from kkcenterhk store for you all today! This time I got some more brushes to try out and some water decals. Both worked really well! Up above is the mani I did to test out the brushes. They worked perfectly for the stripes! I also used them for the stems on the cherries. I wasn't happy with how it turned out over all though cause I suck at doing patterned nails, haha. 
 These are the brushes I got, they're amazing. SUPER thin and work great for all your striping needs. You can get them here
 The second Item I had to try out for them were these water decals. Let me just mention, I got the email about picking another item literally the day after Foofy passed away, and as I was trying to look through and decide what to get, I decided to look through some of the water decals. This happened to be one of the first ones I seen. It's a sheet with different little bunnies on it, but this one stood out to me. I knew I had to have it for my little angel bunny Foofster, and they're perfect! They don't quite look like her, but they're super cute and I love them. And how perfect of a match is that nail polish color? 

Anyways, the water decals worked great! I love them. It took a little effort to slide them off the backing paper but other than that they were great! 
 If you'd like to get your very own little angel bunnies you can find them here
