Andrea Fulerton Nail Tattoos

I had never really been a fan of nail art, or never really thought I would be able to do it myself. Then I found these little beauties. 

These were reduced from £2 down to £1 in Superdrug and were in included in my January Haul and I have finally had the chance to give them a go. 


You get about 60 of these little stickers as well as two 'chains'. There are lots of different designs available but I decided on this set as I have a little obsession with keys. 


I painted my nails with two coats of a nice bright polish and then, using a pair of tweezers, I removed the stickers from the paper and placed them on my nails. This wasn't fiddly at all and I did find that if I misplaced one it was easy enough to peel it off and place it again. 


Once I was happy where each sticker was placed ( I didn't cover all my nails as I think in this case; less is more) i then painted my nails in a thin layer of clear polish to make sure nothing caught the stickers and add an extra bit of protection.

(sorry about the little specks of glitter on my fingers, I literally couldn't get it off) 


I only expected these to last a day or two but they ended up lasting me a whole week! I was really impressed by their longevity and now only wished I had bought more. They definitely add something to a hand of plain nails and it's more fun than I thought working out where to place them.

    1. I think the polish has come up more red in the photos, it's actually a bright orange.
