NOTD: Flower Power

A quick post to share my NOTD. These are nail foils over Sally Hansen White-On polish. I ordered them from Jenny Sells Foils on Ebay after watching a youtube video.

The foils come on plastic rolls/straws so they're not damaged in transport.

I also ordered a second floral design, butterflies and lace. The gold & silver foil was a free gift because I ordered 4 designs. Yay!

I applied them like regular foils but I let the glue sit a little longer than normal. I usually let it dry for about 2 minutes but I waited 3-4 minutes instead.

I think they turned out pretty good. Hope you like them!

    This is so cute! I got all excited and thought, I'm going to buy some right now - but no, that eBay seller doesn't ship to my country. I guess I'll have to find someone else who will! Thanks for the inspiration :)

    These came out really good. So pretty. I have exactly the same foils and also bought them from Jenny Sells Foils but haven't tried them yet. I hope I get mine to come out as neat as yours :-)

    I really like what you did with the foils! The color combination works perfectly. Can you do a tutorial post on how to use foils? I'd like to purchase some, but I'm not quite sure how to apply them.

    This looks very good! I don't like metallic foils, but these look great. I'd like to order a roll or two, but the seller only has a bunch of 60 and no other listings.. Boo.. Oh well, I'll keep an eye on her and see if it becomes available again. I really like the few manis that you did with these foils!
