Kiss Nail Dress - Comic Nail Strips

Hello lovelies!

Today I have a mani featuring some nail strips that I found while I was out shopping a couple of weeks ago...

 
A new trend that I'm seeing with this particular brand is that they're offering both full nail and french tip strips in the packaging.  I think it's a cool concept :)
 

Application of these strips is very simple.  You don't need a base coat (although I always use one), just make sure your nails are clean.  Match the right sized strip to you your nail and then peel it from the plastic sheeting and apply.  I recommend using a cuticle stick/pusher to press down the edges.  Fold the strip down and file away the excess.  That is the end of Kiss's instructions, but I always add top coat at the end to secure my free edges ;)  This time around I used a my favorite matte top coat from Mentality Nail Polish.

Kapow!!


I love nail strips because they make it easy to do a fun mani when you're short on time (which is happening to me more and more as of late haha).  These strips are supposed to last a week but I only had them on for a couple of days.  Looking for strips with more staying power?  Stay tuned in ;)

Until next time!

Comic Pow!

Hiya!

I want to share a mani that I did last week :)  I was inspired by a mnai that I saw by Lots A Finger Paints.....


 Colors Used: Julep - Sarah and Felicity, Rimmel - Black Satin, Sally Hansen - White On

Sponging, painting, splattering... this mani was a lot of fun to do :)  It's kind of like a combination between comic and graffiti. 


I don't love it, I don't hate it, I just sort of like it hahaha.


Soooo yea!  I hope you all have a fabulous day :D

Until next time!
