FANDOM FLAKIES BOX | WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS

Press Sample

Hey guys! Tonight I have the March Fandom Flakies Box to share with you. This box consist of three polishes. The polishes are made by Bee's Knees Lacquer, Night Owl Lacquer and a guest maker each month. The guest maker this month is LynBdesigns and their fandom theme is What We Do In The Shadows. Read on for more info!

Bee’s Knees Lacquer-Dark Bidding

Described as a purple-leaning oxblood with jade/cobalt/amethyst shifting UCC flakes and a scattering of holo flakes. Shown here in 3 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with some texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.

Night Owl Lacquer-Now I'm a Wizard

Described as a black with red holo micro glitter and red/orange/green/gold crystal chameleon flakes. Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with some texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.

LynBdesigns-Vampires Don’t Do Dishes

Described as a deep purple jelly base loaded with red/orange/yellow/green shifting crystal flakies and a touch of holo sparkle. Shown here in 3 coats, plus top coat. If you have no or minimal free edge you could more than likely get away with just 2 coats. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with some texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.

Ribbits and Stickits-Frogetaboutit Acetone Additive

A scented glycerin and oil mixer that you mix with your acetone to prevent drying from pure acetone.

Using this makes it so your nails and cuticles aren't left with that yukky white residue, dry nails and dry cuticles. This is an 30ml bottle in the scent of "Drunk on Drug Blood" which is described as bergamot, grapefruit, bubbly champagne, orange, sparkling berries, juicy tangerine, green leaves, neroli and cedar. I add half the bottle to my 8oz container of acetone to achieve the results below when using it.

Ingredients: Glycerin, Distilled Water, Fragrance Oil, Polysorbate 80, and Jojoba Oil

Ribbits and Stickits-Waterslide Decals

Instructions:

1. Paint nails, let dry completely.

2. Cut out the desired image.(Try cutting as close as possible to the image)

3. Place in warm water for 5-10 seconds.

4. Using your thumb & index finger slide the paper backing from the image.

5. Lightly dampen the back of the decal.

6. Place image on your nail, pressing down to remove any air bubbles.

7. Seal it with a top coat.

Tip:

If you prefer to use the decal over a colored/darker polish it's best to paint the back of the image with white polish/acrylic paint letting it dry before applying it to the nail. (which is what I did for this mani)

Ribbits and Stickits-Vinyl Stickers

Instructions:

1. Scrape over the entire image going over it several times(use a credit card or something with a thin hard edge) This will help the vinyl stick to the transfer sheet.

2. Place the decal face down & slowly peel the white backing from the translucent transfer sheet.

3. Slowly remove transfer sheet, making sure all of the pieces of the vinyl are sticking to the transfer tape.

4. Clean the surface where you are applying your sticker.

5. Add your sticker to the surface, smooth down.

6. Take your scraper & scrape all over the image(use your fingers if scraping isn't an option)

7. Slowly & carefully remove the transfer sheet leaving your sticker decal in place.
