Born Pretty Store: Foam Nail Art Stand

28th December, 2011 - Posted by Emily - 2 Comments

I have another very exciting review to share with you today! The same reason the last one was exciting, this is another one of the products I requested Born Pretty Store to stock and here it is! A foam nail art stand. Basically it holds your nail tips for you to paint them! These are so useful since I usually stick them down on a piece of double-sided tape which causes the nail polish to run down the sides which obviously isn’t the best way.

They come in a long rectangular box and there’s a little assembly required. You need three pieces for each nail holder but putting them together is very easy. I was wondering if they would get damaged or the shape would be ruined with shipping but since they’re safe in a box it’s not an issue.

You can easily push them together in a round shape like this which is very compact.

If you like seeing them all lined up you can push them into the foam that held the larger pieces of the nail stands. I’m not sure which I prefer most, I’d have to try it a few times and see what I like best.

I am however going to buy a second one, this only holds 5 nail tips and I like to work on a set of 10 at a time. It’s so small (when you put them in the circle shape it’s 9cm/3.5″ across) and easy to work with they won’t clutter up your desk or get in the way. And for the price, these are a total steal at $3,38/€2,60.

And this is what it looks like when in use!

As for attaching the nail tips, I would use Blu-Tack, the sticky dough you use to put up pictures and posters to your walls. If you use nail tips or would like to do so in the future I would totally recommend getting one (or two) of these. They’re very useful and fun to use. Such a great nifty little item!

p.s. My blog is so pink today! :D

I was kindly sent these products by Born Pretty Store to review. I am not in any way affiliated with this company nor am I being paid by them! All opinions stated are honest and my own, as always.

Wow I might just have to get these and some studs! I notice you have also requested other thing from BP can anybody do that or only bloggers?

Also I was wondering were do you get your inspiration for your designs? I recently got into nail art but I just never know what to do?

Thanks!

btw I'm in love with your blog (:

Thanks so much for your sweet comment Maddy!

You will love this and the studs! Both are great products! Especially the studs, I love them more than rhinestones personally! :D And I'm not sure actually, there were just a few nail art items I've been wanting for ages and since I love ordering with Born Pretty Store (my no.1 source for nail art items!) I thought I'd just suggest the items to them and maybe they would sell them and they did! I'm sure they would welcome any suggestions if you have them. :)

And my inspiration can come from anywhere! I love browsing Tumblr or getting inspired by other artists but a nice pattern in a dress or a colour combination in the most random places can give me inspiration. Just always keep your eyes open and you will find great ideas everywhere! xoxo
