c/o Incoco: Top to Bottom- Show Off, Pretty Thing, Call of the Wild
Recently, I had the opportunity to try some Incoco Dry Nail Polish Strips. I was saving them for a special occasion, and what better time than my birthday to sport some pretty nail designs? =) I absolutely LOVE the patterns I chose. The best thing about nail strips is that you can give yourself a beautiful manicure with very little effort. Everything comes in one handy kit and it took me about 20 minutes to apply the strips, and that’s just because I had to clip my nails first!
For my first go-round with these, I decided to start with this pretty pink chevron pattern (aptly named, Pretty Thing :). The application process is so simple: just choose the strip that best fits your nail, peel off the backing, apply to your nail, and file off any excess strip! In comparison to other nail polish strips, I find the Incoco strips more flexible and easier to mold to your nails. They are also a little bit cheaper, ranging from $8-10 per set. Incoco has an amazing selection of patterns, as well as many solid colors and french tip sets too. I would definitely recommend Incoco Nail Strips for a chic and easy manicure!
I can’t wait to use the other patterns I choose! You should definitely check out the Incoco website to see what colors/patterns they have. I’m also excited for them to release their holiday collection- click here for a sneak peek! :)
P.S. I’m thinking of making my weekly manicures a regular feature here since I’m always trying out new colors/designs on my nails. What do you guys think?

P.P.P.S. Last one of these, I promise! The lucky winner of my Birthday Month Giveaway was Jeanne– congratulations to her!
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?

You are much more patient then me. I tried this package and I failed miserably. Love your nails!
I’ve always wanted to try these nail appliques but have been nervous to try them. Yours are fantastic, love the chevron stripes and how natural they look. Feature your manicures, I love seeing how creative people get with their nails!
So cute. This makes me wish I didn’t chew my nails.
Those are the coolest nails! I love the design of it :D
Oh, and you should do the weekly manicure!
I want to try these! They look awesome and I’m always so impatient with my nails. They’d be perfect for me.
Yes, they would! Very easy and quick application, you should try them! =)
That is REALLY cool :D

Love the designs you chose! I decided to get a set of the sally hansen and I’ve been holding on to them forever – it’s like “nooo can’t waist the $10 nail strips on just any old day!”
And that is why nail strips are a bad idea. With polish your just like, oh I’ll do this color today and take it off tomorrow and whatever I’ll never use up a whole bottle. (Honestly, I’ve never emptied a bottle of nail polish. Except for clear.)
That is so true- I feel like I must save them for a special occasion! I’ve never gone through a whole bottle of nail polish either (except clear)!
I love it! Very cool.
