Winstonia Store - Berry Wine Brush Set: Review & Nail Art

press sample

Hello again, my friends! I have another brush review to share with you today, this time the Berry Wine fine liner brush set made by Winstonia Store. If you'll recall, yesterday I shared my Bambooristic brush set review (and I loved it), so today we're taking a look at anther detail brush set.

Right off the bat, these visually were a win for me because they're ultra fine liners and something that I have been desperately in search of. In the past, I have purchased nail art brushes and had to trim them down myself to get them thin enough to work with so it's incredibly exciting and refreshing to see something this tiny come direct to my doorstep with no changes required.

Winstonia Store - Bambooristic Brush Set: Review & Nail Art

press sample 

Hi, friends! I hope everyone had a lovely week! I'm so thankful we had a short week here in the States - I'm exhausted! But! I wanted to share with you my thoughts on a few different brush sets that I've recently gotten to try out from Winstonia Store. I've worked with them a few times in the past and really love the quality of products they put out at an affordable price.

I'll have 3 different brush sets to share with you over the next few days, but I'm going to start with one that I surprisingly really loved as well as show you the nail art I was able to create using the brushes in the set. Let's take a look at the Bambooritic Set!

Nail Art: The Planner Society Washi Series - April 2016

nothing to disclose

Hey guys! Happy Wednesday! I'm both shocked that we're already to the middle of the week and THRILLED ;D I'm continuing along with my Planner Society Kit washi tape inspired manis (if you've missed my past ones, head here) and today we're taking a look at the washi that was included in April's kit!

Southwest Print in OPI Euro Centrale

Alright! So I mentioned before that I had done 2 manis with my Winstonia brushes prior to the ones I actually posted for my review...so I'm sharing them now! This mani was inspired by a shirt I saw...and can no longer remember where I found it! :( But the colors in the shirt inspired me to use some of the colors in the OPI Euro Centrale collection!

This was another mani that I honestly didn't love when I first finishes it. I took it off right after I took pictures and I had no intention of posting it. However, after not looking at them for almost 2 weeks, I changed my mind and I think I like them enough to share here. 

Abstract Tulips

When I first received my Winstonia brushes, I knew I wanted to do something intricate and detailed to show the versatility and capabilities of the brushes. Well, I actually did 2 different manicures before I settled on my Sofa King Bueno nails. Not really sure why I didn't feel like these were worthy of being used for my review. But, after letting these photos sit on my computer for a few weeks, I realized that I actually really liked what I created. I recreated a pattern created by Gill of Pattern Addict, but she no longer has the print up on her site :(  

I think my biggest struggle with doing reviews is that I know I've got a funky style and I know that that doesn't "do" it for everyone. I always get super self conscious and paranoid that I'm not going to make the person I'm reviewing for happy - does this happen to anyone else?! Haha alright, end rambling, here's my abstract tulip mani! I so so so love how these turned out and I wish I had shared them sooner!

Winstonia Store Nail Foils Review



*Products provided in exchange for an honest review. Please see my disclosure policy for more info.* 
I have another review to share with you all today! I also received some nail foil from the Winstonia Store to try out and it is so fun! I have wanted to try nail foils for months now and have contemplated so many times just going for it and buying a bunch of colors. 

These foils are #17 from here and I also received some nail glue (which I believe you need to make these foils stick) which is free when you purchase 3D nail art supplies to the end of the month. It took me a few practice trial runs to actually figure a good technique to make these work, but in the end I really like how they turned out.

Winstonia Brushes review - Sofa King Bueno Girl

*Products provided in exchange for an honest review. Please see my disclosure policy for more info.* 
Today I've got a review of a brush set from the Winstonia store! So far I have used the brushes and dotting tools from this set and I can not say enough good things about the quality of these brushes for the price. After doing a few manis with these brushes and tools, I knew I wanted to do something detail oriented to see just how far these brushes could go. I can safely say I was not disappointed! 

This weekend while visiting home, I had a fabulous wine from a local winery, Chronic Cellars...and I fell truly, madly, deeply in love with their labels! I don't know what it is about the skeleton girl on this label, but I knew I needed to recreate her on my nails and it was a perfect opportunity to do this review.
