Incoco Nail Polish Appliqué's

I was sent some Incoco Nail Polish Appliqué's to try. I had not tried the true nail polish appliqués before this. I had only tried the nail stickers so I was unsure what to expect.
Each Incoco nail strip includes base, nail color & top coat all in one! So you get 3 in 1 when using these appliqués. They last up to 14 days depending on your lifestyle. Since they are made of nail polish you need to use polish remover when removing them from your nail.



This is what comes in the package of Incoco nail appliqués. (both above & below) the nail polish strips- above
Directions, file, cuticle pusher & polish remover pad- below



Since I hadn't used true nail polish strips before I was pleasantly surprised how simple it was to apply especially after the first one. I made sure to clean my nails really well & buff them because I wanted my manicure to last as long as possible. I was shooting for the 14 days that it claims to do.



I applied the gorgeous ones called Dream World. They are a gold glitter ombre design. As soon as I applied 1 I knew I was HOOKED! I LOVE THESE!! They feel amazing on. The glitter was smooth but looks amazing!



They were easy to apply. Because they are real nail polish they stretch which aides in applying them & making sure all areas of the nail is covered.


Hopefully you can tell in the picture that they have this awesome pinkish gold @the top & radiant down to a more pure gold color. They are so pretty. I'm really impressed with these nail strips. But the test is...
Do they last 14 days as they say they will?


I usually change my nail color at least every other day. So to keep these on for 14 days was going to be not only a challenge for the Incoco nail appliqués but for me!
I wore them 10 days & had to change my nail color! I was totally impressed that the Inococo nail strips beat me! They could have gone another 4 days!



I'm very impressed with Incoco Nail Appliqués and would definitely recommend them especially if you are in a hurry & don't have time for 2-3 coats of polish to dry! Like I said earlier, they out did me. 10 days was the max I could keep the same mani but I'm sure Inococo nail strips could have gone the 14 days they claim.



So in my honest opinion I really do think these are amazing & would definitely recommend them. They come in a variety of styles & designs. Please check out their website & try some for yourself. Let me know what you think. You can purchase them at Incoco

2 thumbs up from me & a huge thank you to Incoco for sending these to me & letting me try them. I was skeptical at first but now am in love so thanks so much!!

Obama's Nail Polish

Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican this is a genius idea! The colors are amazing. Who doesn't want Red, White & Blue polish?! If nothing else it may become a collectible.

You can order just about anything at the Obama campaign's online store. According to campaign disclosure reports, the store stocks more than $750,000 worth of tube socks, baseball jerseys, Bo car magnets, "hope" lapel pins, hoodies and martini glasses. And the list goes on. Most intriguingly, Obama-Biden 2012 purchased nearly $10,000 worth of nail polish designed by Richard Blanch of Le Métier De Beauté for resale. The three-bottle set, adorned with the Obama campaign logo, comes with a "collectable make-up bag" and sells for $40. The polish is part of the campaign's Runway to Win product line aimed at a more upscale and, of course, politically supportive clientele.

Monkey Around Mani

I came across a blog having a nail art contest. For the contest you had to do a nail design using only the nail brush from the polish & dotting tools. I didn't think that would be that difficult but the challenge would be coming up with a cute design that I loved. So I was watching one of my favorite lil beauty Gurus on YouTube. Her name is Madison, she is only 6yrs old & is so adorable. It is amazing how much she knows about makeup, makeup brushes, brands & especially nail polish. I just love watching her videos.

The other day while watching Madison's Target haul video, she got a monkey money bank & was also wearing a monkey shirt. That's when it came to me to do the Monkey Mani. So thanks Maddy!
Please check her out on YouTube at Maddy's Place Please let her know Leslie sent you & says Hi. Thx



I wanted to show you this amazing color from Island Girl. Even though it's really sheer & you need many coats, it's totally worth it! Love the color.


It's such a bright color it's almost like it glows in the dark but it doesn't.


Here's my adorable Monkey. I think he turned out pretty good for a rookie artist. ;0) I love his little hands holding the banana.



Thanks for stopping by.
