Sephora Smart Roller:Maïlys' favorite

"This is a product designed for nail art penguins...like me!" This is a nail stencil dispenser. I tested the "Animal Print" pattern, which allows you to do leopard nails. The use is super simple:either you bump on a transparent base, or you put two layers of colors before the pattern. In any case, wait until the lacquer is completely dry before stenciling. Otherwise (and it happened to me), the base color is damaged and you have to start all over again...

The stencil roll consists of 160 small "leaves" to peel off. We take off the pattern (we can cut it to adjust its size) and we put it on the nail. It must be well adhered to the entire surface for the result to be successful. Then we take the 2nd color of varnish and go roughly over the stencil, making sure that the holes are filled. Without waiting, gently remove the sticker (so as not to damage the pattern). There, we wait a few seconds and apply a top coat (shiny or matte, depending on the desired result). There you go!

NB:for those who are gifted in nail art, the stencil pattern can be used as the basis for a more elaborate result, in particular by using several colors (which are added with the help of a fine brush or a dotting tool …). »
