An inappropriate title from a mommy? Oh the scandal. What will they ever say at the bus stop. *mischievous look*
Moving along I got my sample package from Kelly Baas (
Ooh La La Polish!) of some of the new Jamberry nail shields! Be sure to use her site:
KellyBaas.JamberryNails.com to shop for your shields!
So yeah. *happy dance* Yup. More awkward dancing. But what gal doesn't love trying new nail awesome?
In the CUTE letter with instructions was two sets of sample shields in various designs. Mustaches. The nerd in me could go no further. Pair this with the fact that I ACTUALLY bought a nude *gasps all around* and it just had to happen.
For starters I cut the design away from the others for ease of taking a photo. Here's the shield in comparison to my nail. Long enough for at least two nails. I've heard that if you have nubbins there's three nails worth here and I believe it.
Super easy to apply. I grabbed my fine Stila tweezers and picked up the sticker, used my hair dryer on low till it got floppy, positioned it on the nail against my cuticle, and pressed from the bottom center out. I used a rubber cuticle pusher like the directions said to press it on there really well, applied another round of heat and was done. Whole thing took 2-3 minutes tops. It was EASY.
Yes there's a gap. That's because I wanted that one on my ring finger because I'm stubborn and refuse to use any other finger as an accent finger. But since the designs come in a whole pack I'd just need to choose the next size up for proper fit. As it is it wasn't noticeable and I got compliments like mad crazy! Here's the other designs I got:
Sadly one of the designs came loose. :( BUT when you order each nail shield set comes safely and securely in it's own plastic sleeve.
Here's some other designs that were at the bottom of the adorbs letter she sent (hit her up with a like on her Facebook page!). The flip flops *dies*.
Oh and guess what?! She's giving away a set of your choice!!!

The retail is 4.99 and it's super fun! I'll do a more in depth post on this one later.
Adorable combination!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I don't know what the proper term is...vintage? Hipster? For some reason that 'stache shield just demanded a nude compliment.
DeleteMy oh my! This is beyond cute! This is major! LOVE IT! The combination is awesome! And believe me, I'm not even a nude person haha ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not either! I just totally am not. You can look through my blog and see there's a total of two "nudish" colored posts. But, honestly, it's flattering. Who would have thought! Thanks so much for stopping by. :)
DeleteA nude! The scandal! I'm excited to hear more about the nude later on.
ReplyDeleteI love your nail shape also.
DeleteRight! Yeah I want to do a WHOLE manicure with it. *gasp, gasp, GASP*
DeleteOh thanks so much! It keeps trying to sneak back to a full on squoval with a flat top so keeping it rounded at the tip is quite the chore!
DeleteI love love love this! The combination you chose is amazing. Your nails are so beautiful & I'm so happy you had a good experience with Jamberry :) I personally LOVE them for accent nails & nail art since my freehand skills are lacking. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good! And what-- TWO nude manis on here, with the promise of another one?? O_o You just have the prettiest nails, dear, and it's fun to see you embracing the demure ;) Also, you inspired me to finally message Kelly about these Jamberry thingies :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! I am loving the Mustache trend:) Great mani:)
