Gilded Mosaic was inspired by this beautiful Marchesa gown and the design features a black base with raised gold beads and silver accents. SO pretty.
This time around I was also able to perfect how I apply these nail appliqués for optimal use. First, I realized that because my nails are short I can actually cut the strips in half and use one appliqué for two nails. This means I'll be able to get twice the wear from one pack (or more if I just do accent nails). Second, I filed off the excess with a light downwards motion holding the nail file vertically as opposed to holding it horizontally and filing from side-to-side. This resulted in significantly less premature tip wear as my mani is still going strong 5 days later. I knew my vigorous filing was to blame...
All eight Revlon by Marchesa appliqué designs are now available at drugstores and mass retailers for $8.95 CAD. They appear to be quite popular (for obvious reasons), so better get your hands on them while you can!
Oh my, this design is so pretty! <3 (: so cute with this jewel design. These appliques seem good!
ReplyDeleteThey really are! It's the Marchesa look without the price tag of one of their dresses.

ReplyDeleteI received them as a media preview from Revlon but if you are in Canada, I have seen them at Shoppers Drug Mart and London Drugs. They are selling out super quickly though!
