Incoco Fall 2013: A Tailored Fit Swatches

Hello lovelies!

I didn't bore you too much with my last post did I? ;) I hope not lol! But I've got some more fun for you guys today. Today September 10th Incoco is releasing their Fall 2013 nail polish appliques line called A Tailored Fit. This collection contains five creme shades and three pretty shimmer shades. Within that there are three straight cremes and five different designs. I've got four pretty shades to show you guys today.

Let's get started shall we?

Autumn Night is a pretty dusty navy blue creme. Great color for fall and super shiny. Though it made me look a little pale because well, I am. ;) 






Twill Weave is a nude base creme with a deep red chevron pattern. This is probably my favorite of the collection, I love chevron patterns and this one is just eye catching enough! 






Tailored Fit is an "army color combination" meaning browns, tans and army greens, houndstooth pattern over a nude base. Also a creme. I love all of the different colors used here, subdued yet fun. Very fall-esque!






Light As A Feather is a golden tan shimmer with a gorgeous pink / purple feather design by the cuticles. What a gorgeous design!





Application with these is very easy, just stick on clean nails, smooth down, and file off excess. The only one that gave me some issues was Light As A Feather. The shimmers seem to be slightly thinner and it's easier to get wrinkles. But that just means you have to be careful!

Incoco retails at $7.99 for the colors and $8.99 for the designs. The designs above, along with the rest of the fall 2013 collection and over 200 different shades and designs can be purchased at www.incoco.com. Don't forget to keep up with new happenings by following Incoco on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and Youtube!

Thanks dearies!! :)

Do you Incoco? Incoco Nail Polish Applique review

Hi cupcakes!
*press sample*

I have a cool review for you guys today. The lovely people at Incoco were kind enough to send me some of their nail polish appliques to show you guys.

A little about Incoco: With research starting back in 1988, Incoco has started a new trend in the nail polish industry. They are the first and only manufacturer of 100% real nail polish appliques, "taking nail polish out of the bottle and transforming it into self-stick strips."

I was sent two different designs, Summer Sizzle (pink checkered) and Venetian Lace (purple lace). I will be reviewing Summer Sizzle and testing Venetian Lace for its wearability! On with the review!

The nail polish strips come in nice small packages and they contain sixteen separate nail polish strips. Definitely a plus because there is plenty of sizes to choose from to get the right fit. Unfortunately for me I have little baby hands so I had a little difficulty getting a few to fit correctly. 




The directions are pretty simple and easy to follow:
- Select the nail polish strip that best fits your nail and remove the top clear cover.
- Remove the nail polish strip from the paper back by pulling on the silver tab.
- Choose which end will fit your nail best and remove the silver tab. 
- Apply the strip to your nail, gently stretching and smoothing it so you don't get any wrinkles.
- Remove the excess strip by lightly filing the end in a downward motion.
- Optional step.. I immediately put top coat on it to remove any small wrinkling which was purely my fault.








The pros and cons:
- Pro: Incoco products are 3-free. 
- Pro: Since the strips are 100% nail polish they are thicker then any other nail polish appliques I have tried making them more durable.
- Pro: They're really sticky, and because they are thicker if you don't place it right you can slowly peel it off and reposition it. I loved this because I can never place them right the first time!
- Pro: No clean-up! Nice and clean and mess free.
- Pro: No dry time! 
- Pro: Over 200 different designs to choose from.
- Con: Don't pull too hard when smoothing them on your nail.. I ripped one on accident and I wasn't pulling very hard. 
- Con: I didn't like the silver tab at the end because sometimes the tab didn't pull off cleanly and if thats the side the fits your nail best then you don't get that real crisp line by your cuticles. I know this can't be helped because you need something to grab on to but I figured I'd make you guys aware anyways. :) 

Quick pic of Venetian Lace I love this color. My sister was kind enough to allow me to apply them on her so I can see how long they last. They claim to last up to 14 days and I'll be sure to keep you guys updated. 


Overall I really like these. You can get great designs with very little effort and you're always left with a perfect design. The no dry time and no clean up and really make a difference. Definitely a great alternative if you're short on time and want some gorgeous nails! They also have french nail strips and even some for your toes! Talk about versatile :) 

Incoco products can be purchased here. They retail from $7.99 to $9.99 and they ship internationally!
