Light blue and embossed gold decoration

Hello!
it's nail mail time today! The site Born Pretty Store sent me some wonderful products to try, give my honest opinion and review for you.
The first products that I would like to mention is a sheet of embossed stickers in gold.
I chose a flower pattern number 53 .
You can find it a this link http://www.bornprettystore.com/sheet-embossed-texture-stickers-gold-silver-flower-grid-pattern-nail-stickers-decals-p-23155.html
or with the ID # 23155.

These are quite different from the others stickers you might find elsewhere because you get a large sheet and you can trim and select the area you want on your nails.
The design is quite detailed the sticky part is trasnparent and the decoration in relief is in a beautiful gold.
They are quite easy to use since they are self adhesive, you can apply them directly onto your nails over a layer of well dried nail polish and the seal with your favourite top coat. You must be careful to apply the stickers flat otherwise it will chip.

This nail art is an example on how you can turn a simple manicure to a sophisticated nail art with simple steps. This sitcker can look good with both light and dark colours.
As base I used an indie polish brand by Parrot Polish in the shade Exclusive Joyful. I received a collection of their nail polishes as a contest prize in collaboration with Scra2ch. I will write about the experience in another post!

Thanks for reading!

Ehi guys! Check out my elegant feather nail art tutorial for @nailitmag

Elegant feather nail art

THINGS YOU NEED:

-      Kiko 3 in 1 matte base

-      Pupa Lasting color sheer white

-      Barry M Silk nail paint in Pearl

-      Barry M Royal Glitter collection in Lady ( sparkling glitters nail polish that looks like snow)

-      Barry M Royal Glitter collection in Duchess (sparkling glitters rose/pink undertone with silver glitters)

-       striping thin brush

-       make up sponge

STEP 1:

After using a clear base for all of your nails, start by painting your index and ring finger with the sheer white nail polish. Paint the other three nails with the Barry M silk white. This particular polish has a beautiful silk sheen, the white is pearlescent and almost matte. You can achieve a similar effect with an iridescent white and a matte top coat.

STEP 2:

After the base colour is dry, apply a mix of Barry M glittery nail paint in Lady and Duchess on the corner of a make up sponge. Dab the sponge from the cuticle area to the free edge. Repeat this step until you create a delicate gradient effect.

STEP 3:

Now it’s time for the feather design! With a striping brush and a white nail polish draw a simple curved line from the cuticle to the tip.

STEP 4:

 Start building the shape of the feather with some light strokes on each side of the line. You don’t have to be too precise, fill the gaps to create a feather-like effect.  Repeat the design on the ring finger, you can vary the position of the feather as you like.

STEP 5:

To enchancethe design I used the Barry M glitter nail polish in Duchess and placed it along the shaft of the feather. Don’t forget to seal your design with a top coat.
