I'm sorry I haven't posted in ages! I have been out and about seeing the legend that is Bruce Springsteen again! I've had such a great time, but I'm absolutely exhausted now! Now it's all over and I can get back to my normal routine, and to doing my nails. Today I'm excited to be able to show you another Born Pretty Store first for me - embossed nail stickers!
The Born Pretty Store calls these "Embossed Texture Metal Style 3D Nail Art Sticker" and they're item number 5659 which is on sale for $1.99 for this WHOLE sheet - look how many you get! There are 56 of the curly shapes (which is what I've used today) and 80 each of two different curved shapes for tips - a lacy one and a simple curved line, which could either be used together or separately. So you have dozens of separate manis in this set, for less than the price of a coffee!
These are straightforward stickers that you peel off the sheet and apply to the nail. They have sticky backs, so no need for nail glue or anything else. I did actually apply these to slightly tacky topcoat anyway, just to make sure they stayed down. By base colour is two coats of Barry M Racing Green.
I love how these look! Aren't they pretty? For me, I don't know how often I'll wear them at the moment as they look a bit wintery to me - all the colours that go with silver seem to be dark, wintery colours. I am sure I'll use these a lot in the run-up to Christmas! I think I'd have preferred these in gold, as that's a colour that goes better with my sorts of colours - the reds/pinks/oranges that I am loving at the moment. But that's a minor thing!
One or two of these stuck up slightly at the edges, but they were easily stuck down with a bit of topcoat. They lasted really well, and then just came off easily with nail varnish remover.
I love Racing Green, by the way! It's a gorgeous, dark metallic green, full of shimmer, that looks just like a classic MG car finish.

I received this product for review purposes, but words and opinions are entirely my own. I do not receive anything if you use my discount code, although when it's been used ten times, BPS will let me host a giveaway for my readers! See my Disclosure page for more details.
On the sheet they look a bit like peel off stickers they sell for card making, except they're generally bigger and say things like Happy Birthday and wotnot.
