[sponsored] California Nails – neon beach collection nail stickers

Good evening lovelies,

tonight I would like to introduce you to the neon beach nail sticker collecction by California Nails.

In my previous posts I already told you a little bit about the Company and also their awesome toe nail tips. You can find the links to these posts at the bottom of today’s review.

The neon beach nail sticker collection was part of the package I received recently.

I was lucky enough to get all four colors, which I really appreciate, because first of all I love neons and second of all the quality is amazing!

The neon beach nail sticker collection comes in four colors:

neon yellow
neon orange
neon pink
neon green

First of all I want to apologize for the following pictures. It is really difficult to catch the neon-ness under artificial light.

All nail stickers come in a cute card like “packaging”, including a step by step instruction and come with 20 different sized stickers.

How do you apply them?

file your nails
push back the cuticles
clean your nails off any oils or dust
match the stickers to your nails, if needed cut them to size
take them off the paper and put them on to your nails
press them down firmly and make sure to get the edges without any wrinkles
cut off the excess sticker and file off the rest
if you would like add a clear top coat

I added a fast drying top coat from Ciaté, but it splitted right off after a day^^
So maybe use a different clear polish :)

On the following pictures you can see how difficult it is to catch the pretty neon, which makes me a bit sad. It is much more beautiful.
I paired the neon orange nail stickers with the current nail stickers from p2’s some like it hot LE.

Today I also took pictures under direct sunlight hoping to catch the neon a bit better.

I really like these nail stickers and I pry that they will come out with way more colors and designs. I have never used nail stickers that applied that easy and without any folds and wrinkes.
Sadly today, only after one day I had to take them off, because two of my nails broke off. But the good thing about this is that I know now that you can simply peel them off without damaging your natural nails.

If you would like to let them know how you like the neon beach collection or which colors you would like, send them an e-mail at stick@c-nails.com

Their online shop is available since beginning of 2015. You can order within Germany and pay in advance by bank transfer or paypal.

Goog eveening lovelies,

today I would like to show you the first products from Absolute New York and Nicka K. Ney York, which I won on facebook a few weeks ago.

I tried the products and was quite intruiged by their quality, which led me to ask if they would be willing to send me a wider range of products from both brands so I could test them out and give you my honest opinion.

They did send me different products for the eyes, lips, nails and skin from both brands, so you can expect several posts with reviews over the next few weeks.

If you don’t know about the brands, please check my Nicka K. NY & Absolute NY introduction – where I wrote a little bit about the brands and their history.

Today I would like to show you the products I won and which got me interested in the brands and products.

Absolute New York – foundation primer – NF080
Absolute New York – nail lacquer – NFB21 Ivory #2
Absolute New York – nail lacquer – NFB27 Fire Brick
Absolute New York – beauty mark – ABM03 Star
Absolute New York – true palettes – NF070 Nude
Absolute New York – eyebrow pencil – WELCHER?????
Absolute New York – shimmer eyeliner – NF008 Green

After I received these products I swatched and tried them, was wondering if I should post directly or wait for the others to arrive so I could devide the reviews into face/eye make-up; lip products; skin care; and two seperate posts about Absolute NY and Nicka K NY nail polishes.

I waited and thought it would be best for you if I divided the blog posts by subject rather then doing a MASSIVE post.

Is that okay for you?
Let me know which make-up interests you the most.

Hey lovelies,

as promised, today I have an interesting blog post for you about the toe nail tips form California Nails.

http://www.c-nails.com

Not only was I lucky enough to receive 3 packs of their toe nail tips, but also the neon beach nail sticker collection. Thank you so much to the super nice team of California Nails!

Currently they offer 22 of 23 different designs for the toe nail tips and 4 neon colors within the neon beach nail sticker collection.

They asked me which designs I liked and therefore send me the following:

The rainbow pastel nail toe tips with glitter are really gorgeous, but it was difficult for me to catch that on camera.

Each pack contains 24 different sized nail tips to choose from. I took all of them out of the package to show what you can expect. I really like that they choose so many sizes and also placed numbers at the tips so you can easily pick them up and get the same sizes for both feet. You can also use your nail file to shape and resize them if needed.

Each pack comes with a small nail file and glue to secure your nail tips.
The set with the skulls also contained a plastic stick/skewer with which you could push back your cuticles. With the other side you could pick up the nail tips.

The application process is very easy:

if needed, shorten and file your natural nails
use cuticle remover and push back your cuticles
(my favorite one is the instant cuticle remover from Sally Hansen)
buff and clean your nails from any dust and oils
(you can use 90% alcohol or polish remover)
find the right size for your toes
if needed, file them to size and shape
apply the right amount of glue to your nail
add the right nail tip and press firmly for 10-15 seconds
repeat with all your nails
last but not least clip off the tips and file the edges

To show you how easy the application is watch either the how to… video from California nails

or watch the version I recorded for you

As you can see, I picked the black silver glitter nail tips with rhinestones to wear first.

The nails should last for about 2 to 4 weeks, depending how well you buffed and cleaned the nails and how well you glued them to your natural nails.

I applied mine last week on Saturday and there was no splitting, or falling off so far. I showered several times and took a bath as well. Nothing happened :)

If you have more questions, you can also check (the german) FAQ on their website.

I also decided to match my fingernails to my pretty toe nails. How do you like them?

The following two pictures show my feet in direct sunlight. Isn’t that pretty?!

I am in love!

If you have any wish or recommendation regarding the designs of the toe nail tips feel free to send the team of California Nails an e-mail at stick@c-nails.com

Their online shop is available since beginning of 2015. You can order within Germany and pay in advance by bank transfer or paypal.
