Anchors Away with Beyond the Nail Decals

Press Sample Purchased by Me

Gooood Morning!

Yesterday I showed you two beautiful polishes from the indie brand Beyond the Nail, and today I have a look featuring Blue Microglitter and silver vinyl decals made by Beyond the Nail. These decals are cute, easy to use and let you have some great nail art in a flash!

Nautical Nails


For this manicure I used 4 coats of Beyond the Nail Blue Microglitter on my index and middle nails and then used a white creme on the rest of my nails. Using a striping brush and China Glaze Adventure Red-y I freehanded some lines across my nails, just because I'm too impatient to use striping tape lol.

I added the silver anchor decals on my non accent nails to play into a nautical theme. The decals are really small so I would recommend using a pair of tweezers to lift the decal off the paper and place onto your nail. I originally tried just using my nails and completely messed up my right hand so I had to go back with my tweezers. Much easier that time around and my right hand was saved!

I'm not usually one to use decals like these, but I love the result! There is no way I would be able to freehand something like this and I don't have an anchor stamp. The decal was really easy to use, once I figured out the tweezer trick, and in no time at all I had a great looking manicure. You get 20 decals for $2.50 and there are tons of different designs that you can check out here.

Are you a fan of decals? What do you think of these anchors?! Hope you're having a great Thursday :)

  2. Akh! This is the cutest!! I love nautical-inspired nails, and yours are amazing! Love the combo of glitter and stripes... your stripes look great, especially since you didn't use striping tape! And those decals are adorable
