Show Me Your Nails 2.0

Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

 

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

Thank you @tjffc! ❣️

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@RGbrown Wow! This is stunning! Your mani skills are awesome!!!

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum 

Aw shucks, thank you! Gradients are definitely not that hard though...if I can do it, anyone can! You just need a damp sponge (like cheapie makeup wedges), and some liquid latex is a nice addition to help minimize cleanup.

Zoya Pixiedust in Destiny and Nails Inc Shaftesbury Lane. NAILS INC. Relationship Status: Proud Nail Polish Set was a bit of a disappointment, the colors are streaky and hard to work with, so I am unlikely to purchase more colors from them in the future and will stick with Essie for my creams. 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

Oh wow - Thanks for the honest review, @lnum !  Sorry this polish disappointed!

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@Tamara76 Such a shame because I really love all the colors in the set!

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum, love the Zoya Pixi polishes! Like you, I've been disappointed with the Nails Inc creams. The red is a pretty shade, but their formulation can be difficult to work with.

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@itsfi Nice to know it’s not just me because the reviews were really good and I was surprised how difficult they indeed are to work with. 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum, I completely understand feeing better about knowing others feel the same way. Their metallic polishes seem to apply and wear better. The creams for me though are challenging - they streak more than I expected and at least the colors I have, the formula is either too goopy or too runny/thin. I do have pastels so I thought maybe that was it, but it seems like it might just be the formula. 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@itsfi Yes, that’s exactly it, I found the formula to be goopy and sticky. It sticks to the brush with each stroke which makes it impossible to even out on the nail bed. Mine also chipped after just two days and after that it started peeling off on the edges to the point where I could peel it off in large chunks completely. I put on more topcoat this time to see if I could prevent that particular problem and it seems to have helped. However, the third issue I experienced is a strange discoloration on my toenail polish after about a week whereas usually I can go two weeks easily for my toes. So overall, the polish failed on so many levels. 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum  That Pixiedust is soooo pretty! ❤️

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@PrettyPaint It makes me feel like my nails are glittering but dainty balls of 🔥

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum 

That's a gorgeous mani! 😍 It's a shame the Nails Inc polish was hard to work with though...that's always a let down 

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@RGbrown Thank you! I’ve decided to fully embrace my Pixiedust obsession and wear them as my main color instead of the accent because my boyfriend simply asked me, why not? And I had no reason as to why not. 😅

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@lnum 

Your boyfriend is wise...why not, indeed?! Embrace the sparkle! 🌟

Re: Show Me Your Nails 2.0

@RGbrown Think that might need to be my new life motto!
