What's Up Nails Mermaid scales vinyls
11:27 AM*Press Sample*
Hello everyone!
Today I have a mermaid scale mani to share with you all. I received some sample vinyls from What's Up Nails to review. I got to choose some vinyls and one set I chose were the scales! I usually turn to stamping for my mermaid-y type manicures so I thought vinyls would be nice to try also.
For this mani I started off with a base of FingerPaints Patent Black. And for my scale colors I chose three polishes from the China Glaze Crinkled Chromes. Though they're sort of similar and it really looks like two shades I promise there's three. "Crush, crush baby" "Don't be foiled" and "Aluminate"
What's up nails vinyls were super easy to use for me. I didn't have to weed (remove the inner pieces) at all with this sheet. I've heard others haven't been as lucky, but I'm wondering if it's just hit or miss. I am very pleased with how crisp my lines stayed even though I used a weird textured polish.
Vinyls from What's up nails cost $4.75 a sheet and come in many styles. They also stock other nail art and nail accessories. Which can all be found here: Shop What's up nails
Until next time!
Xo, Lo

ReplyDeleteThanks Anita, i think they're fun. :)
DeleteThat looks great. I loved the base colour too.
ReplyDeleteI love the mani, your lines are so crisp! Texture isn't for me though, I can ocassionally wear a Zoya Pixiedust on an accent nail but even then only for a short time! 😊
ReplyDeleteThank you, I hear ya i know its not for everyone. I do enjoy them though. The pixies are some of my favorites but they look extra amazing topcoated! I wont lie i love it all lol!
DeleteI love this mani! I have had major trouble with almost all the nail vinyls I purchased from What's Up Nails in regards to weeding, though. :( Tried from all sides as well. Maybe I got bad sheets.
ReplyDeleteThese were no issue but the moroccan sheet i received is the worst ever. I can not for the life of me get them to weed themselves. :(
DeleteLovely <3 I don't see three shades there, but I love it ;) I've never tried nail vinyls , but I've seen a bunch of them lately and will have to try them =)
ReplyDeleteXoxo, Nyx
Thank you! Yeah i was sort of sad that the blue and silver are practically identical when sponged, but i went with it.
DeleteThis is the best that I've seen anything from this collection look! Do you have a macro of this?! I'd love to see it's beauty up close.
ReplyDeleteYay score 1 for me! No I did not but now i really wish i would have. I might have to visit this again just for a macro!
DeleteWow these turned out beautifully!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, glad you like it!
DeleteI really like this and would definitely wear it! It's really pretty.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I love trying to find ways of making the weirdo polishes work lol.
DeleteLoooove mermaid scales, this mani came out great
ReplyDeleteThanks manna!
DeleteIt's so pretty! I haven't tried the crinkled chromes, I passed on them, but it looks good in this mani.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I wish i could have found the others at this lowered price.
DeleteThis is stunning! Love the base!
ReplyDeleteI think this is the best use of those CG polishes I've ever seen. I was not a fan of that collection.
ReplyDeleteYay, Thank you! I wasnt either when they came out. i have a problem leaving discount polish behind lol. Im glad i made them work though. :)
DeleteI love this and your color choices! Finally the crinkled chromes are good for something!
ReplyDeleteYes! Nail art the crinkled chromes! :D
DeleteMy reaction to the crinkled chromes were definitely "ewwww, run!". This is the first time I have seen a mani where I liked them!
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely not the most attractive textured polish lol.
DeleteI love your mani. The color association is perfect
ReplyDeleteThank you Schette!
DeletePerfect mani! I love textured polish but I haven't tried the crinkle chromes based on their reputation. Lol
ReplyDeleteThank you! I was hesitant but for the price i was game, so glad i picked them up.
DeleteI absolutely love this!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Im so glad.
DeleteMermaid scale all the mani's!
ReplyDeleteI would wear that mani, I love that mani, and I wish I had the full line of those CGs...sigh...:)
ReplyDeleteYay that makes me happy. I wish i had the others now too.
