Hi lovelies!
I know, I know, it’s been quite
some time that I was not able to post anything on this blog. And I’m sorry for
the very long wait. My travel to and from work is killing me, that whenever I
get to have time off, I’d rather lie in bed the whole day. Anyway, I’d still
like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who stayed in this blog.
Thank you.
For today, I wanted to show you
some reviews. A couple of months ago, I received some nail art implements. As
you all would have notices, I have never tried nail decals. All my designs have
been hand painted. So imagine my excitement when I received a card saying that
I have a parcel waiting for me in the post office. I was expecting about 2 or 3
nail decals. Much to my delight, when I opened the envelope, I was welcomed by
not 2 or 3 nail designs, but 8 of them! Yes, you read it right, eight. I had a
face-splitting grin.
Let me show them to you one by
one. First up, the Love
White and Black Decals. This sheet contains 20 assorted white and black
cats “in love”.
Then I have this Bow
Button Knot water decals. It consists of 10 black and 10 white “shoe-lace”
like water decals. The photo does not capture the white one very well since it
has the same color as the background.
I also received a “shattered
glass” water decals. I am not really sure if this is a water decals. The item
looks like a sticker to me. It’s not pre-cut as well, so I’m not sure how this works.
I’m still finding it out.
Included in the package are three
fluffy stickers: rhombus,
red
and gold dairy cow and black
and white leopard. Each sheets contains 10 round tips and 10 square tips on
assorted size. Perfect to fit all your nails.

I also have this pre-cut transfer

This post will also show you a
quick tutorial and a review of the Love White and black decals.
Here's what you need to start
up.
You’ll need:
- Tweezers
- A small container with water
- Base and Top coat
- Nail polish (a color of your choice)
First, you’d need to make sure
your nails are clean: free or dirt, oil or alcohol. Prepare all your tools and
cut out the designs to make it easier for you to apply. I lined up the cut-outs
according to how I wanted them on my nails.
Once everything is set, apply
your base coat to protect your natural nails, and paint in your polish color of
choice. For this review, I used Caronia Kiwi. Make sure your polish is
completely dry before continuing on with the next step.
You can choose to use tweezers in
picking up the design and setting it on your nails. I chose to use just my
finger with the wrong side up. I find that easier. Carefully place the design
the way you want it on your nails. The reason why you need to have your polish
completely dry is so that you can move the decals on top of your nails until
your satisfied in its position. Once your happy with the way they look on your
nails, finish your design with a top coat to protect your design and add shine.
And that’s it! Easy huh? This nail
design works best for people who’d want to design their own nails but does not
have patience in drawing them.
What I love about this design is
that they stay on your nails for a good one week. Well, maybe longer. I change
my polish every week so that’s the longest they can stay. Just make sure you
cover it with a top coat to make sure it last.

Its good to design different kinds of decals all the time. Your skills becomes useless or limited when you design for specific niche or category. Being designer, its good to see you to design nail decals as it is much difficult to satisfy the women consumers.
