Get Rio Ready with Elegant Touch Nails

Right now I am totally obsessed with the Olympics, Team GB are doing just amazingly well and I am so proud to be British, we are such a small Island and there we are 2nd in the medals table with only the USA above us, whom, are a massive country! Elegant Touch are also clearly in the zone and have released two limited edition sets of nails which are perfect to get in the Rio spirit or even as a bit of fun for the summer.

Within the collection are two different designs specifically for the Rio Olympics and they are just so cute. Inside each box are more than enough nails for more than one wear and they come with everything you need for your application such as a buffer and some glue. Once applied they last for around 7 days before the wear and tear sets in and they start to fall off.

The two designs, Pineapple Party and Rio Ready are online exclusives (here) and retail for £7.95.

Pineapple Party are the kind if nails you can't miss. They have a very brightly coloured, very summery pineapple design print adorning each nail and they are a lot of fun.

Rio Ready gets you into the carnival spirit with two different nail designs which can be worn individually , for an accent nail or mixed and matched. The choice of blue and white stripes or a palm print on a yellow background are both striking and stand out.

Inside each box you will get 24 nails in ten different sizes so there should be a size to fit your own nails. I have personally always found Elegant Touch nails to fit my own fingers which are quite small and whenever I have worn them, they do last a full 7 days. Easy to apply, the nails come with easy to understand instructions and if nail glue isn't your thing, then I can highly recommend the nail guards (which ive run out of) to protect your nails from any damage.

I think these nails are a lot of fun and something a little bit different to get you in the party mood.

Elegant Touch Don't be Sheepish Nails

I have only recently become obsessed with false nails, so when Don't Be Sheepish landed on my doorstep, I was overwhelmed by how cute they are. Whenever I do use false nails, Elegant Touch are my go to nails because I find them easy to apply, they suit my nail shape and they re incredibly purse friendly.

The Elegant Touch Don't Be Sheepish nails are an online exclusive and are the perfect designed nails to wear not only for the Easter weekend but for the whole of Spring. Within each pack of nails you will find nail glue, a buffer, an instruction leaflet and 24 nails in 10 different sizes all compactly packed so you have everything you need to get going and make those nails pretty and they last for up to 10 days without chipping or peeling.

My own nails are currently going through a bit of a bad time and are all cracked, broken and peeling, so I am currently applying products to get them back to their former glory so I have only tested one or two of these nails, that said, they are really easy to apply. The nails are an almost squoval shape, which doesn't different too much from how I shape my own nails.  Once I have washed and dried my hands, I always apply handcream and then cuticle oil before buffering my nails.  Once I am happy with that, I select the right sized nails and then begin to apply the glue, then apply and press down on the nail.  They stick immediately and I have never found a need to remove and reapply before a week.  

As there are two designs within this set, you can choose whether you want more lambs or more daisies or an equal mixture of the two. The Elegant Touch Don't Be Sheepish Nails retail for £6.95 and are available from the Elegant Touch website - HERE.
