It is an amazing tool, it has a tiny stamper that stamps the tiniest details with accurate precision. It picks up small accent designs or target specific areas of larger images. The soft silicone stamper head is 0.6” (approximately 1.5cm) in diameter, so you will be able to place your design pretty accurately. . It picks up images extremely well and it is very sticky.
As you can see from the picture it has small glitters inside, super cute!
Moreover the pencil has a clear acrylic handle filled with sparkly jewels.
The opposite end of this stamper features a soft circular sponge that can be dipped it colours to create gradient and shades.
The sponge can be taken off for cleaning, I used it only with acrylic paint and I washed it with water and soap.
I really love this product and I think it is a innovation and a must-have. You can create a whole nail art only with this tool and nothing else.
This is the nail art I have created with this.
I started with a white base, then I added a tye-dye effect with the round sponge. I dabbed a mix of pink, purple and blue acrylic paint with the sponge and I gentily pressed it onto the nails. The more you repeat this step the more the colours blends.
Then I stamped with the tiny stamper. I was able to pick the smallest images and place them with precision.
Then I sealed the designs with a matte top coat.
For stamping I used this plate here:
I decided to add some studs and rhinestones.
On the ring finger I created a triangle shape in purple and gold.
On the thumb I created a line with rhinestone, I alternated gold, purple, lilac and pink.
I was able to be so precise because once again I used a very useful tool. This dual ended gem picker . This tool simplifies nail decoration and doesn't leave residues on the rhinestones.
Hello, Today I would like to show you a product from Nicole Diary an online shop that sells nail art and nail related items. They contacted me and offered some free sample to show you. The product I want to show you today is a brand new one, I haven't seen it elsewhere so I was really curious to try it. You can find it at this link: http://www.nicolediary.com/nicole-diary-nail-strip-colorful-metal-wire-line-matte-mirror-flakies-nail-nail-decoration-p-308.html Don't forget to use my coupon code for 10% off LAPI10 on www.nicolediary.com The product is made up by very thin filaments in gold. They are extremely shiny and thin. The material looks like the duo chrome or metallic flakes but cut in thin stripes. I really find interesting this version of the product, it makes the use very versatile and fun. The product comes in a nice jar with the logo on it, the plastic jar contains 0,1 gr of product and a sponge applicator. There are other colours too: blue, green, pink, purple, red and silver. It was really hard to pick only one, I would like to try the pink next time!
You can use the product on the entrire lenght of the nails covering almost all the base and creating a full cover metal effect. Or you can use the product with a flakies effect as I did in this nail art. I tried to recreate a gradient effect. I started with a black base, then with a brush I made a few brush strokes on the tips of the nail. Then I added one coat of clear nail polish and I gently dabbed the the gold filaments on the nail adding more product on the tips. I finished the nail art with a matte top coat.

The first product I would like to show you is a gold flakes powder. These gold flakes (product IDJ2430-GD) currently retail for 1.61 euros and come in gold and silver.
I have used gold foil before but I was surprised to see how gold and bright these flakes are!
Il primo prodotto che vorrei mostrarvi è una polvere di scaglie dorate per ugnhie. Questo prodotto (IDJ2430-GD) al momento costa 1,61 euro e si può scegliere tra la versione dorata e la versione argento. Ho già usato precedentemente della foglia d'oro per nailart ma sono stata piacevolmente colpita da questa versione molto più brillante e realistica.
The product comes in a nice jar that contains 0,2 gr of flakes and a double sided sponge applicator.
The flakes are extremely thin so you won't have problems for the application. They can be used with normal nail polishes and gel polishes as well.

The application is very easy. You can dab the powder over a base nail polish. If you use the sponge applicator is very importsnt that you dab the product over a tacky polish. It has to be not completely wet but a bit sticky. When you are satisfied with the design you can seal it with a clear top coat.
L'applicazione è molto facile. Potete tamponare i glitter su una base di smalto. Se usate l'applicatore in spugna è molto importante che lo smalto non sia asciutto del tutto ma ancora leggermente umido. Quando sarete soddifatti con il risultato non dimenticare di fissare la nail art con un top coat trasparente
These nail flakes look so saturated and realistic that remind of gold leaf used on ceramics, that's why I decided to create a gradient base with a fan brush. The first version is in a rich shade of light blue.
It is very easy to achieve this look. I started with a white base. Then I used a fan brush, I dipped half of the brush in a white acrylic paint and the other half in a light blue paint. You can swipe the brush across your nails, you can repeat this step many times to blend the colours together. In this case I didn't wanted it to be exemely precise and let the brush strokes visible.
Once the design has dried you can add a coat of nail polish and apply the gold flakes. I dipped a dry brush in the flakes jar and let them fall on the wet nail polish. then I sealed again with a clear top coat.
Here is a small video to show you how to achieve this design:
La foglia d'oro è molto brillante e realistica, mi ha ricordato quella usata per decorare la ceramica. Per questo motivo ho deciso di creare una nail art in blu sfumando il colore gradualmente con un pennello a ventaglio. è molto facile realizzare questo effetto. Sono partita da una base bianca, poi ho intinto metà del pennello in un colore acrilico bianco e l'altra metà nel blu. Ho passato il pennello sull'unghia ripetutamente fino a sfumare i due colori. In questo caso non volevo essere troppo precisa ma lasciare che le pennellate si vedessero. Quando il primo strato è asciutto potete aggiungere dello smalto trasparente e passare all'applicazione della foglia dorata. Ho prelevato un po' di prodotto con un pennello e l'ho lasciato cadere in modo sparso sullo strato di smalto ancora bagnato. Infine ho fissato il tutto ancora con un top coat trasparente.
You can try different colours. In this variation I tried some pastels and seald the design with a matte clear top coat. As you can see the gold flakes did not lose their shine.
Potete provare colori divesi. In questa variante ho usato alcuni colori pastello e un top coat matte, come si può vedere dalle foto l'oro non ha perso brillantezza.
Hello everyone!
Summer is almost ended! Even thought it's raining right now I still feel in the mood for colourful nail art!
So today I have some Born Pretty Store decals to review for you.
This product was kindly sent by the company. You can use my coupon code at check out to get 10% off RASX31 on www.bornprettystore.com Even if I love doing my nail art with stamping tools or free hand I am always looking for new ways to make cool designs easly and quickly. With these nail decals you can achieve a big effect with a small effort. This sheet of water decals is very particular and graphic, the shades are lovely and bright they shift from yellow, green, orange to a nice red.
You can find it at this link http://www.bornprettystore.com/sheet-irregular-pattern-water-decals-gradient-color-nail-transfers-stickers-p-21457.html
How to use:
This kind of decals are meant to cover the entire nail so it's always better to use a base, a neutral colour or as in this case, a colour that can make the decal stand out.
In my opinion the best choice for this one is a white nail polish.
Then you can cut the decals in a shape that match your nails and remove the plastic top.
This step is very important because if you don't remove the plastic film you will have an unusable water decal.
Soak the piece of the pattern in water for few seconds and then remove the decal off the backing.
Place it on the nail, smooth the surface and be careful, you might create some air bubbles. It's a good tip to dab the eccess of water with a tissue (or you can blow dry).
Seal the design with a clear top coat.
You can cut the eccess of the decal with some scissors or remove it carefully with a small brush and some nail polish remover.
