Summer Nails From Elegant Touch!

Hey beaut's!

I bloody love a false nail or two, I have such short, square, stubby nails naturally so anything that's going to make them look longer and super pretty I'm all over! I think the Summer months are when I like my nails looking their best, I love bright-bold colours, glitters, pretty patterns-the lot, so thank goodness Elegant Touch have so many different nail styles to choose from!

I have always been a bit afraid glue on false nails because of the damage they can cause to your natural nails however the Elegant Touch Nail Saviour packs are an absolute game changer for me! The Elegant Touch Nail Saviour packs not only contain your falsies but also a bottle of the Nail Saviour Protective Base Coat, you pop a coat of this gorgeous stuff on your natural nails before you glue your falsies in place and it creates a protective layer between your natural nails and the glue, this means theres never any actual contact between the two, genius right! I have the Iridescent Blush* set (£9.95) here which is so pretty, their pale pink nails with a really striking iridescent shift to them! The pack contains 24 stiletto shaped nails that come in 10 different sizes to get the best, most comfortable fit for you!  

Another set I'm literally living for right now is the Chrome 2.0 Set in Silver Siren* (£9.95)! If your into extremely glittery nails these could be for you because they are the most twinkly, glittery nails with a metallic foil finish, I've honestly never seen such twinkly glitter nails in my life! Again these come in the popular stiletto shape and contain 24 nails in 12 different sizes for the best fit! I will say stiletto nails are so striking but they do take some getting used to when you have very short natural nails to begin with, after an hour or so I was used to them and they are extremely comfortable to wear! You can also use the Nail Saviour Protective Base Coat with this set of falsies too to keep your natural nails all healthy!

If you hate the gluing process then the Elegant Touch Insta Nails will be right up your street, and I must admit their my favourites! The Insta Nails are pre-glued and can literally be applied anywhere at anytime in less than 3 minutes, yup it's that quick and fuss free! I have the set Pink Cadillac* (£9.99) which have fancy pink tips and bold metal cuticles which look so cool and are a design I'd never be able to achieve myself by painting my nails! The pack contains 24 nails in a stiletto shape, the stiletto shape of these ones though are slightly shorter than the two above so if your getting used to that particular shape of nail this set could be a great starter set for you!

You can find tonne more of the Elegant Touch False Nail designs HERE.

Elegant Touch InstaNails Reviewed!

Hey beaut's!

If you've read my blog for a while now you'll probably already know that I bloody love a false nail or two, I have such short, square, stubby nails naturally so anything that's going to make them look longer and super pretty I'm all over! Recently Elegant Touch launched their InstaNails collection, a range of falsies that will have your nails looking insta-worthy in just 3 minutes, yup I'll take 50 sets thanks he he! 

The Elegant Touch InstaNails Collection consists of six kick ass new designs that's are pre-glued for the quickest, easiest, mess free application! The three styles I have been trying are..

Spring Fling* – A nude oval nail finished with pretty iridescent rhinestones and gold studs.

Summer Siesta* – Ahhh my favourite set, these are bright red stiletto shaped nails with gold glitter accents and gold gems.

Vacay Vibes* – A hot pink matte nail in the popular stiletto shape, these ones are almost fluorescent.

Each packet of Elegant Touch InstaNails comes with 24 pre-glued nails in 10 different sizes so you can mix and match to get the perfect fit for you. Personally I LOVE the fact these are pre-glued nails because their my absolute favourite, I hate the whole gluing process because a - it takes longer, b - they are a pain in the butt to remove and c - they always leave your natural nails looking like a complete wreck afterwards but the pre-glued stick on ones are damage free and you can whack them on literally anywhere. Lasting power is great with these ones too, they hold up on my nails for around 3 days without chipping at all, I also love how salon worthy they look, the designs literally look like a professional has spent ages on your nails when in reality you've just whacked them on in a couple of minutes!

I really cant recommend these nails enough, their super quick an easy to apply, they fit my nails perfectly and are nice and comfortable, their not too long for me so I can still un-do that top button on my jeans lol and the designs are just stunning!

You can find the Elegant Touch InstaNails Collection exclusively in Boots HERE from £8.99-£9.99.

I've been giving two of the four sets a whirl recently and I am totally obsessed with them, firstly I tried the Moonstruck* set which are a lovely - easy to wear - oval shape with a silver sheen finish which have been inspired by silvery moonlight. The second set I have is the Darkest Hour* set, these come in the popular stiletto shape and have an intense charcoal shimmer finish but also look the deepest green in some lights, these are 'night out on the town' nails for me and I love them!

The Chrome Kisses* set have the popular stiletto shape with the most gorgeous peachy-pink holographic finish, in some lights they even look rose gold, I love them so much! The other set I have are the Molten Madame* set, these again have the stiletto shape and have a pearly/oyster colouring with a pinky holographic mirrored finish, these are perfect if you want more of an understated chrome nail!

My favourite sets out of the collection have to be the Bora Bora* set and the Ibiza* set. The Bora Bora set have the popular stiletto shape with the most gorgeous pink iridescent sheen, I love that no matter what these chrome finish nails always shine a different colour, I've spotted peach, purple, white and blue, they so cool! The Ibiza set are equally as gorgeous, they have the coffin shape which a basically like the stiletto's but with a blunted end, I just love the colourful tribal design of these, they scream festival season to me! 

The Havana* set again have that on trend stiletto shape with a negative space tribal design in a metallic rose gold, these are so pretty and still have the wow factor without being too intense. The Ipanema* set are the most stripped back design out of them all, these ones have an icy white glossy shine which again would be perfect for festivals when your going print heavy with your outfits, these are a great basic set to have and if you was in a bit of a pinch you could always paint them if you wanted to!

Nailbox Review | The UK's First Nail Polish Subscription Box ♥

Hi beaut's!

Today I have something very exciting to share with you all, and let me tell ya any nail polish addicts out there are going to love it! Move over generic beauty subscription boxes, Nailbox is in town. Nailbox* is a brand new monthly subscription box service that focuses solely on all things nails, they only launched in April but I think their off to a flying start and I find this concept genius! 

Each Nailbox is dispatched on or around the 21st of each month and will contain a total of 5 items; 3-4 full-size nail polishes and 1-2 tools, all of which will be well known brands such as Essie, Orly and OPI among other favourites. The shades of the nail polishes that you will receive in each box will always be bang on trend and go with the current season, which personally I thinks as amazing idea as nobody wants to receive a dark, dreary shade during Spring/Summer do they. 

I was lucky enough to receive May's Nailbox to review a little early and I absolutely LOVE every single nail polish brand and shade that I received. Here's the low down....  

♥ Orly-Fiery Orange RRP £9.50 ♥

A sheer bright orange shade that's  packed with holographic hex glitters and micro string glitter. Perfect to use as a glittery top coat over a plain orange shade or you can use it on it's own but it needs 3 coats for complete opacity .

♥ Essie-Status Symbol RRP £7.99 ♥ 

A creamy and feisty hot pink  shade perfect for the Summer! It's completely opaque in 2 quick coats.

♥ Rimmel 60 Seconds -Lucky Lilac RRP £2.99 ♥

A dark lilac shade that still has a pastel vibe about it, perfect to wear now during the Spring and is opaque after 2 coats.

♥ Nicole by OPI-Alex by the Books RRP £7.99 ♥ 

 A creamy mint green shade that's absolutely gorgeous to wear during Spring time, It was completely opaque after the 1 coat and the formula is to die for as well .

♥ Elegant Touch Professional Cuticle Pusher & Nail Cleaner RRP £9.50 ♥

 This is an amazing little dual ended nail cleaning tool, it has a rounded, slightly sharpened edge at one end to help remove dirt from under the nails, and a cuticle pusher at the other end which has a rounded spatula shape perfect for pushing back softened cuticles and dry skin. 

The price of the box per month is between £13.50 and £15.00. You can either choose to sign up to Nailbox for a whole year and your box will be slightly cheaper at £13.50 per month, or you can pay £15.00 month-to-month which then allows you to give the box a test run with the option to cancel whenever you want.

Overall I think this is a fantastic idea and a great take on a subscription box, whether your nail polish addict or a beginner your nail's will definitely love this little monthly treat!

What do you think of Nailbox beaut's?? Will you be trying it out fr yourself?? I'd love to know!!
