OMG Nail Stickers Review

*press sample*

Good morning, everyone!

So, I have a fun review for you today! I feature nail strips every once in a while here on the blog but I don't buy them very often mostly because I don't have very good luck with them. However, that was not the case with these strips from OMG Nail Strips...I had a really easy time with these which was refreshing!

These come with a plastic coating on top that is peeled off right before application. They are pretty sturdy, not too thin (I had this issue with the Incoco strips) but not so thick that they don't meld with the nail easily. My nails are very rounded so I require pretty wide strips to be able to get my nail fully covered. I did have a hard time getting a perfect fit for all of my nails but I could have done some trimming on the biggest strip to get a custom fit but I was afraid that would look even worse. haha

The strips applied very smoothly, very minimal bubble issues and no folding or creasing at the sides (big plus for me!).


I tried 2 designs, each applied just as easily as the other. You can find this design *here*.


I trimmed my nails down a little before putting on these strips. Thus the difference. haha I liked these ones a lot, very simple but fun.  This design can be found *here*.


I wore these stripey ones for about 3 days and they still looked pretty good...I could have squeezed out a few more days wear if I wanted to.

I would recommend these nail strips not only for the quality, ease of use, and large design selection, but for the price as well. One set will only set you back $6.89, which is cheaper than what most other strips go for. If you really want a good deal on these OMG Nail stickers, right now you can get 4 for $20 with coupon code “4pack” and 10 for $45 with coupon code “10pack”!

Also, you can find OMG Nail Strips on Facebook and Instagram!

Tell me your thoughts on these stickers! Do you plan to give them a try?

LA Girl Teal Dimension + Nail Stickers

Hi readers!

Are you all ready for a new week? I am optimistic that mine's gonna be good...let's hope so! ;)

For today's mani, I started with a base of Teal Dimension from the LA Girl 3D Effect line. I have said it before and I'll say it again...LOVE these polishes! Just look at the gorgeous teal color and the depth it has...super gorgeous.



A polish that pretty doesn't need to be messed with a whole lot! So I added some simple nail stickers from Born Pretty Store. These came on a large sticker sheet and can be trimmed to fit the nail however you want them to look. They weren't as sticky as I would have liked but as long as I pressed down hard and applied top coat immediately after they stayed put pretty well.


I like the metal look these have!


These stickers come in silver and gold and there are a variety of patterns to choose from. Find them on the Born Pretty site *here*! AMG10, my coupon code, gets you 10% off too!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't already! There is a bottle from Bootie Babe up for grabs....you have one more day!

Born Pretty Bow Nail Stickers Review

Hey everyone!

By now we all know Born Pretty Store has a plethora of nail related items and their selection of nail stickers is pretty big. I love bows, so I knew I would like these stickers. I was surprised at how many you get! Below is a pic of the actual  sheet of stickers...excuse the funky lighting. It's definitely going to take me forever to use them up.



What better to go with bows than a pink polish? This is 2 coats Kleancolor Glamour Barbie. This is super pretty! It's a very shimmery, almost metallic base with silver glitters.


 The stickers applied very easily and laid perfectly flat. They have kind of a soft, puffy texture to them which is interesting.



I think these stickers are an easy alternative to stamping because the end look has a similar effect. I topped these off with topcoat and the mani lasted perfectly until I was ready to remove it.

You can find these stickers for sale *here*. I also have a 10% off code to use on your next order! It's AJ10W21. :)

What are you thoughts on the mani I did using these stickers?

Chanel Inspired Nail Art

Hello everyone!

It's Monday...yay. I am going to Atlanta this weekend though, so I do have something to look forward to!

Today's mani is simple to accomplish and looks chic. I got some stickers from Born Pretty Store that are little Chanel logos, so I figured I can't go wrong with black and pearls! I used Sinful Colors Black on Black for the base. The pearls also come from Born Pretty. I'm loving this!



You can find the Chanel stickers *here* and the pearls *here*. And also use AJ10W21to get 10% off your order!

What do you think of my Chanel inspired mani?

Born Pretty Store Floral Nail Decals

Hello ladies!

My manicure today features some nail stickers from Born Pretty Store. These are a very easy, no-brainer way to get nail art and sometimes that all I have time for. haha 

So here is what I did with the stickers I got:



I layered Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White Out and then one coat of NOPI It's All About the Glam on top. This shimmer is pretty subtle but still adds a little something to the overall look. 

The stickers lay flat and adhered well to my nails. They are a little delicate but that's to be expected because of how thin they are anyway. They are super cute and girly...totally my style. ;)



You can find the stickers I used and many more from Born Pretty *here*. Also, you can get 10% off your order with this code: AJ10W21. Don't forget about free worldwide shipping too! :)

And finally, you have a little less than 12 hours to enter my Born Pretty Giveaway! Enter *here* if you haven't already! :)

What do you guys think of these stickers? Would you use them?

Kiss Nail Dress in Bodysuit

Hi lovely readers!

A few weeks ago I got box of items from Influenster to use and review. Obviously, these nail stickers from Kiss were what I was most excited about. These are pretty much the exact same as the Sally Hansen nail strips in terms of how they are applied. One box comes with enough to do a manicure and pedicure with a large array of sizes. I liked the ease of application as well as the no clean up/no mess factor. I also like the fact that it's instant nail art without have to do any effort.



I put these on the night before I took these pics. You can probably notice that there is some tip wear/shrinkage. I was disappointed that it happened so soon especially since I just put them on the night before and the only thing I did was sleep. I took these off after 2 days and the tip wear had progressed more. But I will say the removal was easy and convenient because I was able to peel them right off!

Have any of you had experience with these nail strips, or nail strips in general?

China Glaze CG in the City

Happy Saturday! I am enjoying some "me time" this morning. Baby is napping and husband is studying for a test. And I am chillin on the couch in my pj's with no plans to move anytime soon. haha Love it! :)

Today's polish is CG in the City from this fall's China Glaze Metro collection. This is super fine glitter in varying colors. This is 3 coats with a Claires light grey creme as underwear. This polish would also work well for layering in one coat. CG in the City reminds me of sparkling concrete. 

With flash to show the sparkle:

And then I added some Halloween nail art stickers sent to me by the lovely Thresa from Esther's Nail Center. This is definitely the most fool proof way to get some extra somethin somethin on your nails! And these stickers have some serious staying power. They don't budge once they have been put on. I wish I didn't have to use the flash to take this pic, but you get the idea.


That's all for today! Thank you for reading. :)

Born Pretty Pink Matte Polish

Hi polish lovers! 

I have a simple, but fun mani to show you today. I started with a Born Pretty matte polish similar to Zoya Lolly, only with shimmer. I have to say, I prefer this one to Lolly. The application was smoother as well. As with all Born Pretty polishes, this one doesn't have a name, only a number (07).


My favorite thing about mattes is how quickly they dry! 

Then we topped off the mani with lacy nail stickers. This is such an easy way to dress up a plain polish...I love the way this looks!


You can get the pink matte polish here for $3.25 and the stickers here for $1.52. To get 10% off, use code AMBERL73 at checkout!

Also, don't forget to check out the great deal on my right sidebar, $25 for $50 of stuff from aveyou.com! They carry OPI and Essie. Just click the box to get taken to the deal!

Do you guys like this look? <3
