Silver leopard nails

Some more foil nails.

These are pretty easy to do - as you just stick, cut and file... no dry time.

however I'd much prefer Sally Hansen which is the same but sticks better (and lasts longer)

Gold shiny stars

So a while ago I mentioned the nail foils I bought.

and after the epic beading fail I thought something easy and simple would be nice. 

I actually had trouble applying these ones (again)

see the yucky creases in the corners, I think the design is not great as it doesn't cater to the curve of a nail. 

But overall I like the shine, and I much prefer these to my beaded disaster! 

Misbehaved nails

So my Foil Nails are gone...

Peeled them off as they were starting to annoy me, the ends weren't quite smooth (I think due to the shortness of a few of my bitten nails - terrible of me I know!)

I since decided to put on some more of my Sally Hansen salon effects.

I like them! 

And they stick on to the nail so easily and they look super smooth and tidy afterwards! (unlike my first attempt at foil nails)

These are Misbehaved 

-but they do behave - unlike some ::cough cough::

(a fishnet style pattern with gold undertone)

Sorry about the creepy hand - I don't know what I was thinking...

Also, In all fairness I will be giving the foil nails another try once my nails a just a tad bit longer.

New foil nails

Today I went to the women's expo.

It was filled with numerous stalls with things focused at women!!

I found a stall selling nail foils!!!

And I went a little crazy....

(7 in total!)

I had actually been looking at these on the Internet lately, and have been trying to find somewhere that sold them in New Zealand. eBay was looking like my only option....

So I was very happy when I saw these in my own home town!!!!

So excited that I put some on tonight!

And to be honest....

They look AMAZING! But they took ALOT of effort to get on.

I think that was partly due to the fact that I had cut my nails so short just yesterday (a little bit too short)

I will definitely give these nail foils another try once I grown my nails a bit longer...

So keep piste for more reviews.

Oh, and I got a Yummy apple too!!!

Toffee Apple!!! 

om nom nom 

Check it out of the blue...

Today I was removing my Check it out nails
(just like you would with normal nail polish)

(yes, already time for a change!)
and decided to see what they'd look like with a bit of colour to them.

I put Mint Fizz (quite a sheer blue - only one coat) over the top and I think they look rather good.

I was hard to keep them streak free though, so you have to do a dab and spread it quickly.

what do you think?

Check It Out nails.

Today I thought I'd make use of my 

Sally Hansen: Salon Effects

I haven't worn these in such a long time I thought I could have a little fun with some eye grabbing nail polish! 

240: Check it out

These are super easy to apply

you just peel off backing and stick to the nail (just like a sticker)

I like to give it a really good rub with my fingers to make it nice and warm and sticky before applying to nail.

Then a really good rub once it is on my nail. 

and, they don't stick to skin so it's really easy to get off if I get some around my nail.

It says you don't need to - but I like to apply a top coat

Revlon: 999 Colourstay Top Coat

This is the result.
