Stuck On Love Nail Shields

I'm sure you all have noticed by now that in most of my Love, Angeline swatches I've had accent nails. All of those accent nails were made super easy by Love, Angeline's Stuck On Love Nail Shields! 
Here's a recap of all the accent nails I've done.
From top to bottom, left to right I've used: stars, X, cheetah, and X again. 
Top to bottom, L-R: tribal arrows, Aztec, zebra, and giraffe
Top to bottom, L-R: arrowhead, hearts, clouds, and triple lines.

You can also use the left over pieces as decals in your nail art.
Here I chose to use the pieces left over from the butterfly nail shield to add cute butterflies to my mani. It's so much easier and crisper than stamping! 
This is how I use the nail shields: 
1. Apply to DRY nail polish 
2. Using a makeup sponge with polish on it, dab it over the nail shield, much like you would with a gradient 
3. Take off nail shield, topcoat and enjoy!

It's been my experience that using a sponge to apply the polish instead of using the brush gives you a much more even and crisp looking result. 

The quick and dirty: I love all of the designs on Natosha's nail shields, they're adorable! They are very easy to use and make nail art a snap even if you're not artsy. If you have shorter nails you can cut the shield in half to get double the uses! 
Make sure you give Natosha a follow on Instagram (@loveangelinepolish) and check out her store loveangeline.bigcartel.com to see all the nail shield designs she has available.

The last of The Love Angeline army

If you follow me on Instagram then you know that a while back I got a massive box filled with Love, Angeline polishes and today marks the last post on the contents of that wonderful box. The last collection I have to share is the Carebear collection! This is a collection of amazingly adorable glitter toppers! 
Take That Cheer and Shove It!
This one is so girly, it's got pink, silver, black, and gray hex in it! The silver is all holo and yummy. Swatch shows 1 coat over OPI I Theodora You. I also used the X Stuck on Love Nail Shields for my double accent nail.
Look at that silver holo hex, stealing the show over there. Show off.

Naive Dreamer
I love blue and I love glitter toppers so...I love this so hard. Blue, black, gray, and silver glitter in this one. Swatch shows 1 coat over China Glaze At Vase Value. I also used the cloud Stuck On Love Nail Shield. 
Again, these color combos are perfect. So delicate and cute.

Sunny Side Down
The name on this one makes me giggle every time haha. I had a brilliant idea to use the Giraffe nail shield for this one but then I went and added glitter over it and killed the look. Hind sight is 20/20 right. Anyways, swatch shows 1 coat over FAT Lacquers Ice Cold Brewsky.
Yellow circles! Be still my heart.

Nobody Likes A Klutz
I'm a serious klutz and can vouch for the name of this polish, it's true haha. In college I tripped UP the same set of steps twice. And it wasn't even stairs, it was like two steps. Anyways. Swatch shows 1 coat over China Glaze Grass Is Lime Greener.
I'm just realizing that there's dots in most of these polishes. That makes my heart so happy!

No Need To Be Greedy
Okay, this is my favorite! I used one coat over China Glaze In A Lily Bit. Such a perfect combo! 
No dots in this one but I'm totally okay with that. 

The Quick and Dirty: this set of 5 glitter toppers is a must have in my opinion. They're versatile and glitter payoff is excellent. I think they're all perfect for doing glitter gradients with which I love. 

I used Love, Angeline's Stuck On Love Nail Shields for all of my accent nails and I love them! They make it easy to spice up an otherwise simple mani. I'll have a full review on them up soon.

5 Minute Quickie

Ugh I know that I've totally slacked on posting my Neverending Pile, but I'm back! Today's theme is purple.
I used Bliss Polish Orchid Bloom, Color Club Sultry Diva, and the purple from the newest LE Wet N Wild collection.
I also used some little butterfly pieces from the butterfly Stuck On Love Nail Shield. 
Here's a close up of Orchid Bloom. Check out those gold flakies!

Bloggers do it best

No really they do. Create polish that is. Today I have Love, Angeline's new Blogger collection to show you all! Plus some more Stuck on Love Nail Shields! 

Shade Of The Evening
Oh. Just oh. That green is perfect. I used her mermaid scale design for my accent finger. Swatch shows 3 thin coats with topcoat. 
I literally love everything about this polish. It reminds me of mallard ducks. Which I love. 
I could just stare at that forever. And ever. 

On The Absence Of
Such a gorgeous white crelly. My accent nail is a gradient with the herringbone nail shield. Swatch shows 4 coats with topcoat. 
You can see all those amazing flakies here. It adds such depth and dimension to this polish. 
I'm just dead with this macro. So gorgeous! 

Don't Ruffle My Feathers
This was soo mint colored in the bottle but on me it definitely leaned way more green. But it's okay I still love you polish. I used the honeycomb design nail shield on my accent. A few of the inner pieces of honeycomb stuck in the shield when I peeled it off which I liked so I left them in.
Swatch shows 2 coats with topcoat. 
I love the subtle golden shimmer in this! Also all the glitter in this is holo so it's uber sparkly.
Haha this looks so much more mint colored here. 

Let Me Fly
I have no words for this polish. It is so stunning in person. Swatch shows 2 thin coats with topcoat.
This one is breathtaking. I couldn't stop staring at my nails. 

If You Want The Rainbow
I have no idea why but this one gave me serious lobster hands so I apologize for that. But this polish is, again, perfection. 
I used the polka dot pattern nail shield for my accent nail. Swatch shows 2 coats with topcoat. 
Light blue holo with flakies, what more could a girl want. 

Stargazing Monsters
This purple is just gorgeous! It's got so many different colors in it I don't even know! Swatch shows 3 thin coats with topcoat. 
Look at it. Just look at it. Now go buy this. I can't even with all these colors and holo glitters. 


So. I love this entire collection. It was so much more than any pictures show, it is absolutely gorgeous in person. You would be crazy to not get these! 

A little blurb about the Stuck On Love Nail Shields: I love the designs they come in! I found that the best way, at least for me, is to sponge on whatever color I'm putting on top like a gradient. It keeps the polish thin but still opaque and prevents it from getting all up under the nail shield. That being said you can definitely just paint over them if you so choose.
