Foxes and Nails? Perfect.
One of the many reasons I love blogging, is that you candiscover such wonderful new things through your favourite writers.
I have totally stolen this from Zoe, but I am so absolutelyin love with these bad boys that there was no wayyy I wasn’t going to share themwith you :)
Nail Stickers! Firstly, they’re FOXES; they already have my immediate, undivided attention. I really need to owneverything that has anything to do with a fox, so if you wanna throw some foxystuff my way, be my guest ;)
Although I love beauty, when it comes to nails I completelyfreak out. I can just about paint them, but when it comes to nail art, oranything that isn’t just a standard easy polish, I SUCK. So I was a littleapprehensive to try nail stickers, but what’s the worst that could go wrong eh?
Luckily for me, nothing! it was so easy :D *insert fistpumps here*.
Step 1: Paint your nails. Make sure that you use a lightcolour for the nails that will have the stickers on them; they may not show upif the colour is too dark.
Step 2: Cut out your sticker. You don’t have to be too precise;I just cut mine into a small square.
Step 3: Peel the sticker away from the backing. The stickeritself is very fine, so if you have long nails, great; if not perhaps use sometweezers. Be careful that the sticker doesn’t roll up; if it gets stucktogether it will be really difficult to unstick it!
Step 4: Place the sticker on your nail. Again, be cautiouson application, once it’s stuck down, it’s not going anywhere! Tweezers come in handy here too.
Step 5: Apply a top coat, to keep the sticker firmly inplace. I applied an extra coat the day after too.
And voila:
These babies are designed by the lovely Jan Christie; andcost a teeny £1.80. The images are based on their own photo's to avoid any copyright issues; & I believe you can send in your own images to these two ladies to get your own individual sticker! That's pretty cool, non? I’m so impressed with the quality & ease of using thisproduct. Plus, they popped in a fewextras for me to try FOC, how lovely is that? Including, a cat, a horse & apug!
What do you think? Are you a fan of nail stickers? Did I doan okay job? :)
