Stained shattered glass! Nail tape and wax pen from Born Pretty Store



Hello!
I feel really inspired today!
I just received some products form Born Pretty Store and I wanted to use them all... well at least some of them.

The first one is this set of mermaid iridescent tape.
You can order one singular piece or all the colours: grey, purple, blue, green, pink and yellow.
Of course I wanted them all there all 3 sizes available 1 mm, 2 mm and 3 mm. The ones I used here are 3 mm.





This product can be used onto natural nails or false nails, with normal polish or gel.

I love how the colours are very delicate but still visible and I am in love with the iridescent effect.
These tape is self adhesive so it does not need a wet polish, it can be easilt cut in small pieces to create a beautiful shattered glass effect.

In my nail art I tried to follow the rainbow colour  from indaco to red/pink.
 Then I accentuated the shattered effect with black lines, like a stained glass effect.
For this I used a striping brush and some acrylic black paint. then I sealed with a clear nail polish.





For the ring finger I used the tape vertically across the nail and the I added some triangular holo paillettes.




The sequins are beautiful but they a bit tricky to pick up because of the triangula shape. This time I had this wonderful tool to help me: this wax pencil picker.





On one end it has a sticky wax tip that will help you to pick it up rhinestones and studs or even foil paper. Since I have long nail I have been having hard time picking up small pailettes and this tool is very useful.  On the opposite end there is a metal tool that it is meant to push onto the rhinestones or sequins to make sure it is stuck into the glue.

I really love this product, the only advice I have is that if you live in cold country or you use this product in winter you have to warm a bit the wax point with your hand.
The wax won't stain the rhinestone because it is clear.
I really appreciated the fact that the product comes in a nice hard plastic box that prevent any kind of damage and help you store it easily. you can also pick a colour: pink or this tiffany light blue, m favourite.
