Steam punk nails!





According to wikipedia Steampunk fashion is a subgenre of the steampunk movement in science fiction. It is a mixture of the Victorian era's romantic view of science in literature and the industrialization in most parts of Europe. The aesthetics of the fashion are designed with a post-apocalyptic era in mind. The costumes included clothing, hairstyling, jewellery, body modification and make-up. Steampunk fashion has later gone on to include gadgets and contrasting accoutrements.




Initially, the clothes such as bustiers, bodices', jackets and other items were mostly handmade and customized, but as the steampunk movement grew, entrepreneurs and companies became interested and started to mass-produce steampunk clothing to be sold both online and in stores.

Now steampunk fashion is becoming main stream now and nail art industry is offering many tool and products related to this trend.

I really wanted to try some nails inspired to the steam punk trend but I never found the right product for it. The free hand drawing option looked too difficult for me.
I was recently contacted by the company Big Bang Beauty and in their store I found this set of stickers
The sheets has many stickers in different sizes and styles, they all look like clock pieces, or others hardware and machinery parts.

                                                                      SKU: J2102-3C

For this nail art I left half of the nail clear and on the other half I did a marble pattern with a black and a bronze shade. Then I applied the stickers between the clear part and the design to make them more visible.
I was really amazed by the quality of these stickers, the designs are very detailed and the glue is very strong so they stick to the nail very well. They don't make air bubble or stains. They measure approximately 4mm 6mm and 8mm in diameter so they are suitable for long or short nails.
You can use some tweesers to take them off the sheet and apply on the nails
I added some 3d mini steam punk nail art decoration, I think they would go well with the sitcker and create a tridimentional effect.
I sealed the designs with 2 coats of clear glossy polish.

Pink flower nail art with Born Pretty Store stickers



Hello!
Today I've received some products from Born Pretty Store.
The first product that I would like to show you is this sheet of pink flowers stickers.

The sheet will arrive in a plastic bag that prevents it from any damage.
The stickers are all individuals and very easy to use.
Make sure your nail is clean or your nail polish is completely dry. Select a design and peel it off the transparent sheet. Than place the desing on your nail, rub it gently so that you can prevent air bubbles. Apply a layer of top coat for the best result.





The stickers are in different sizes so that can fit fingernail, toe nail or nail tips.
The design it's really delicate, a silver outline and some light pink flowers and blossoms.
You can use it with light colours, it goes well with white, pink and light blue but I think it stands better on darker ones.





That's why I created this simple nail art.
The base is a simple black nail polish, then I created a "distressed effect" with two metal colours a purple from Ceramic Effect Layla n CE71 and essence 29 paradise.
Then I applied Born Pretty Store's stickers,
To give and edgy effect I left half of the ring finger nail clear.
This is the final result.
I hope you'll like it!



Thank for reading!
