But that's not what you came here for, right? This is my Skittlette:

Pinkie and middle: Nail Wraps from NCLA
Ring: two coats Opi Skull & Glossbones, black studs (also from Pshiiit Boutique) and a sparkly tiny stone from Fing'rs Nail Art
Index and thumb: two coats of China Glaze Sunday Funday
The application of NCLA Nail Wraps is very easy. They describe the best procedure on the back of their Nail Wrap sets very well. Each set contains two sheets of Nail Wraps and one nail file. On my pinkie I simply slapped the Nail Wrap over my existing mani. On my middle finger I went ahead as suggested by NCLA, I applied one coat of Essence XXL Nail Thickener (just use your preferred Base Coat) and placed the Nail Wrap once the polish was completely dry. I honestly preferred the simple solution. But not because it is the fastest and shortest road to take but I have some really, really badly ridged nails and the added layers of polish make the smooth application of the Nail Wraps A LOT easier!!!
Do you use any Nail Wraps? Do you have any preferred ones?
I ordered the NCLA Nail Wraps with Pshiiit Boutique, China Glaze Sunday Funday with Head2Toe. I get Fing'rs nail art from Manor.
I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!

Hi lovey, I think I am back to my old self - I hope ;-) - thank you <3!! Those NCLA nail wraps are really easy to use and - since I have really badly ridged nails - best to apply over fully polished nails to provide the smoothest surface possible. I hope you enjoy a relaxing weekend sweetie xxx
DeleteThese are super cute !!!! Love all the colors you used !!
ReplyDeleteThank you Vicky, I am so happy to finally dare to do some more than just plain nailpolish - however, I prefer to wear Skittelettes on the Weekends, I don't feel comfy with them at work (yet) xxx
DeleteI love this skittle! I'm so loving the colors together!
ReplyDeleteAwwww feeling soooo flattered by your comment Ina xxx
DeleteSkittlette, Skittlette, we love Skittlette !!! I think it's gorgeous, modern & sophisticated. I've never used nail wraps but they look fantastic. I'm really tempted to try now, must note on my wishlist.. this NBB is really making me want more things instead of less! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteChristine, I hope you had a great weekend. bisous, xx
Salut Nati, Phew, this means so much to me coming from you - honestly you are have had quite an influence on me trying to dip my nails into other skills than slapping polish on my nails - so this is like praise from the teacher :-)!!! Wow you are so GOOD at your NBB, I am at awe!!! Have a wonderful start into the new week, Bisous xxx
Deleteexcuse moi Nati I have just realized how HORRIBLE the above reply is formulated - a re-read wouldn't have heard but I am just typing away hastily in my lunch break...
