Cherry blosson and red bird nail art!

Hello there!
Today I am going to review some water decals from Born Pretty Store.

The company was very kind to let me select some products to try. I really love water decals because they are very easy and fast to use and e result is stunning. You will easily get compliments for your nails from everybody who notice them.

This time I've chosen an elegant oriental and vibrant design.
You can find it here .
There are many others patterns available, I am sure you will find a pattern you like.

The application is very easy.
The waterdecals are protected by a transparent sheet. You can select the size and the design you want, cut it with a scissor. Don't forget to remove the plastic sheet. Cut out the section of decals, and let it soak in room temperature water for about 20-30 seconds, slide the decals off the paper backing with tweezers and place on the nails with the white or nude base coat
The instructions suggest to place it on  the nail and blow dry. The last step is to secure it with clear nail polish. In my case with a matte top coat.

The pattern is number 1594. I think it is very beautiful, it has flowers and blossoms in a pink and red shade, some others in beige. It reminds of an early oriental spring of the cherry blossom season in Japan. There is also a red bird that I decided to place on the ring finger.

  I think this kind of waterdecals work best on a light base. I used a sheer white cream colour. 

On thumb and pinkie I used a matt red with a bit of shimmer. (I personally mixed this shade ans I am very pleased with how it tuned out)!

Christmas tree nails!

Christmas is not my favourite time of the year #teamgrinch .
This year I have been minimal with decorations too.
 I found these geometric trees @flyingtigeritalia , I really like them so I thought it would be a good idea to pair them up with a nail art!

I recently got a nail mail with wonderful items form Born Pretty Store.
These triangle studs were exactly what I needed:

For 2.99 usd you will get 6 boxes, you can choose between two shapes: triangle and rhombus. I got the triagle of course! I received 6 different colours: green, silver/white, holographic, purple, gold rose, green/yellow. All these colours are chromatic so they have a colour shift effect that makes them very unique and festive!

Here are all colours on a thumb nail

For this nail art I used the first three colours.

As you can see from the pictures, these studs are not completely flat, but they have a nice 3d effect that gives dimentions and different light reflections.

As base I used some black glittery nail polish and on the ring finger a white snow glittery polish. On Index and ring finger I did some abstract geometry. On the middle finger I tried to recreate a tree shape with the green studs. On the ring finger there is a slightly sheer effect, I added some pearlescent white nails at the base and the tip.
The studs are really easy to apply, I used a dotting too on a wet polish, then seal it with a clear top coat.

I will use these sequins in other nail art for sure, I think they are a great deal because you get 6 boxes in different colours for a very low price.
