And lastly Soap and Glory Sugar Crush body buttercream, this had been discontinued but I saw it again in Boots so put my points to use;

Review: Born Pretty Store - Nail Stencils / Vinyls Stars Y025*

This product is a nail stencil or a nail vinyl in the shape of stars. In the pack you get 9 large star stencils and 3 smaller star stencils.

The stencils are quite fiddly to work with and can be quite delicate and easy to break.

To use these I painted my nail in a metallic purple colour and waited for that to completely dry, before painting over with a darker shade and the finally removing the stencil using tweezers to reveal the lighter shade underneath.

Overall creating a look you would struggle to create either freehand or with a standard striping tape method.

Review: Born Pretty Store - Gold Mandala Pattern Nail Stickers DTL 120*

This pack of nail stickers contain 26 stickers. These particular ones have a mandala patterns, dream catchers, moons and teardrop designs.

These stickers are thin and flexible which means they really bend with the curve of the nail and so it doesn't matter how strong of a C curve you have to your nails. They are also very sticky and stick well to the nail. You could wear these without a topcoat but I found myself using one to seal the sticker in. But they don't stick up so you don't necessarily have to.

I used these tear drop shaped stickers in a duochrome accent nail art;

Review: LadyQueen - Penguin Nail Stickers QJ-3D-606*

 

This sheet of nail stickers is from LadyQueen. There are four different designs and you get six of each design. Three are penguins, and I think the other two are seals.

They are stickers so all you need to do is peel them off the backing and stick them to your nails. I like to use a top coat to seal them in so they don't get caught in my hair.

I know it is still August so summer here in the northern hemisphere but I had to add some snowflakes to these penguin nail art!

I also used the seal stickers for a French manicure twist;
