This is the MAY kit! How crazy is this?! All of this for $9.95? I'm in...
The first things are the cards. This one tells about this month's theme and introduces the new Nail Art Guru, Emily the Lacquerologist! I'm not going to recite this note because it's so long, if you would like, you can click on the picture to enlarge it to read more about this month :) On the other side of this card includes 3 more designs you can do with your products. I only did 1 of 4 that came with this kit, because I loved it so much I want to wear them as long as possible, but I will be updating this post as I do the rest of them!
This card shows how to do one of the designs with 2 of the items in the May Kit! I love that it gives you step by steps with clear directions.
The last card tells about this months featured nail art guru who happens to be Lynette Cenee! On the back it reads a little about her:
"I have been doing makeup professionally for over 7 years, although in reality I've been doing it ever since I can remember! As a daughter of a magician, I grew up doing stage makeup and performing in many different acts. This is where my passion for this industry began.
Now as a licensed cosmetologist (hair, makeup and nails) I do all of these things for weddings, photo shoots, fashion shows and film! I feel so fortunate to absolutely LOVE what I do! I want to inspire your creativity, remove your fear of making mistakes, and give you the tools to achieve amazing results so that next time someone asks you, who did your nails, you can say 'I DID!'.
What's the essential product you think everyone should have?
Never skimp on buying a quality top coat to finish off your mani!
What's one tip you think everyone should know?
Nail design can be your hottest accessory to play up any look!"
You can visit her on any social media platforms including Youtube, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook!
The first item in my kit is this Kiss Nail Artist Paint & Stencil Kit! This kit comes with 3 nail art stripers, and 30 stencils! The colors it comes with are Neon Orange, Beach Yellow, and Purple glitter. The stencils are SUPER cute and come in designs like hearts, roses, stars and butterflies among other things. I'm really hoping these are reusable because they're great! For those who don't know, stripers are very long thing nail polish brushes that help you achieve small intricate designs. They're great to have in all colors! I've never tried Kiss polish before, but I LOVE it! It dries super fast :)You can purchase this kit from Walmart for $6.97 or from Amazon for $7.98
Next is this Kiss Marbleizing Pen & Polish kit! This kit includes 3 different colors, light pinkish purple, medium purple, and dark purple. The cool thing about these polishes is that they double into a pen! You can paint the colors on your nail like a regular polish, and then do designs with the mini tip! It's such a cool, and handy idea! The bottles are plastic, not glass, so you can squeeze them a little to get the polish out of the tip. It also comes with a guide to do a few different marbleizing nail designs!You can purchase this at Walmart for $6.97!
Next are these Kiss Nail Dress Nail Stickers in Teddy. They're a gorgeous black with gold rhinestone like dots on them! These require no dry time, and can be applied easily. I LOVE these things! I've used them before in the past, and they rock. They're almost like colorforms, and stick on easily. This pack comes with 28 strips that can be used on finger nails or toe nails. The great thing about these is that they don't dry out like Sally Hansen's Salon Effect Strips. I do keep them in a ziploc bag though. They can also be cut up to make accent stripes or designs!You can purchase these at Walmart for $5.97 or on Amazon for $6.39
Next are my FAVORITE! These are more Kiss Nail Dress but in the design Corset. These. Seriously. Rock. I'm a HUGE fluorescent lover, so when I saw these at Walmart I had a heartattack! I was freaking out, so of course when I opened the package to see them in there, I freaked out even more! My camera didn't even pick up the awesomeness of the color and design.You can purchase these at Walmart for $5.97 or on Amazon for $6.39
Next are these Nail Artist 3D Charms with Nail Glue! These little nail charms are SO cute and come in designs such as bows, cakes, rhinestones and butterflies! This little kit, as I said above, comes with the nail glue necessary to put them on your nails. How cute are these?You can purchase these on Amazon for $11.99 but where all of their other stuff is priced at $6.99, I'm going to go with that for a total price.
Last but not least are these Kiss Nail Artist Flat Stickers. These are just stickers you can place over any design. They have a clear backing, so they'll show up over any color! I got pretty almost tribally butterfly ones (bottom) and almost Hawaiian flowers with little silver dots in the middle :) These are too cute!You can purchase these at Kmart for $2.99 or Amazon for $3.29
TOTAL: $35.84 (without using the $11.99 price tag from Amazon)
This is one of the designs I've done so far! I used the Kiss Nail Art Stripers, Kiss Nail Artist 3D Charms, and Kiss Nail Dress in Corset! I'm going to add my own touch to my thumb, pointer and pinky by adding a piece of fruit fimo cane on it! :)
Overall, I'm super in love with this service. I swear I'm not being biased because it's both a subscription box and for nails! I honestly love that it's $9.95 and you get WELL worth that in products, not to mention the products are name brand! I know not every package will include Kiss items, but this month was awesome! I really love the amount of product/service cards they include, and they don't include just 1 design to do, they have multiple ones shown, of course this is perfect for people to start their creativity, but it's good to have direction! I think that this would be the PERFECT gift for the ladies in your life who are either just starting out, or have been doing nails for a while. I'm honestly thinking of this as a Christmas gift for my Niece. She loves all the hobbies I do, and this is one she's been getting into as well.
Thank you again to the ladies at Nail Art Society! I had so much fun reviewing these :D!
