Nail Foils Collection and Descriptions - Miscellaneous Foils

This is the final post for my nail foils collection. There has been a lot to go through so I am kind of thankful that I've gotten to the end. All of these foils were purchased by me from Dollar Nail Art. In this post I will be showing you product photos, close up images and brief descriptions of each of the nail foils based on what I think they look like.

If you do not know what nail art foil is or how to use it please follow this link here to my Introduction to Nail Foils post for more information.

 Black Raven:

Black Raven is a glossy black foil. There is no pattern to it at all, it is ust solid colour.

 Camouflage:

Camouflage is a matte foil which is made up of grey, khaki and green blocks of colour. The pattern of this is sort of like an 8bit version of the camouflage that army officers wear, fairly interesting.

 Champagne:

Like the name Suggests, Champagne is a matte creamy gold colour. It didn't fit in with the gold shades so I just decided to add it to this lot.

 Opal Glitter:

Opal Glitter is a transparent foil with a dot pattern over it. The dots that cover the entire length of the foil reflect a rainbow holographic depending on how the light hits it. As this foil is transparent, it can be applied over any base and create interesting designs thus making it very versatile.

 Opal Swirl:

Like Opal Glitter, Opal Swirl is a transparent foil. The pattern on this foil is similar to that of water ripples which reflect a rainbow holographic design depending on how the light hits it. Like Opal Glitter, this foil is very versatile and can be used over any nail polish base. I tried it out over a black base and it looked like an oil slick, so awesome!

 Snake Skin:

Snake Skin is exactly what the name suggests. This foil is semi-transparent with a black and grey snake skin pattern to it. Like the previous two foils, it can be applied over any coloured base to create an interesting design. This is probably my favorite foil of them all!

 White Marble:
Another foil that is exactly what its name suggests, White Marble is a white based foil with a soft brown marble veining through it. It isn't really that impressive as it reminds me of floor tiles, not something I'd really want on my nails lol.

Nail Foils Collection and Descriptions - Blue and Teal Foils

The next installment of my nail art foil collection from Dollar Nail Art is the blue and teal foils. I bought these foils using my own money. This post will consist of product photos, close up images of each foil and a brief description.

If you do not know what nail art foil is or how to use it please follow this link here to my Introduction to Nail Foils post for more information.

 Aqua AB:

Aqua AB is another foil similar to Gold Spectrum as it reflects a rainbow flash depending on how the light hits it. This rainbow reflection give a holographic effect to the foil. When applied to the nail it creates rainbow flashes across the nail.

 Blue Mist:

Blue Mist is a little lighter than Sapphire and a little more on the grey blue side. It is a mirror like reflecting metallic foil with no pattern only solid colour. As Sapphire and Blue Mist are so similar, there is no need to purchase both. I would recommend Sapphire over Blue Mist though because it is a nicer blue.

 Electric Blue:

As the name suggests, Electric Blue is just that, a solid electric blue foil which has a mirror line metallic finish to it. Like Sapphire and Blue Mist, this foil has no pattern and it just solid colour.

 Gradient Crush:

Gradient Crush is a electric blue foil that fades into a nice emerald green as you go across the width of the foil. The pattern on this foils is similar to Diamond Red or Gold Crush in the tile effect. The tiles reflect blue, green, teal and slightly purple depending on which way the light hits it giving this foil a holographic effect.

 Ocean Mist:

Ocean Mist is a mirror like reflecting foil which changed from orange, gold, red, green teal and blue depending on which way the light touches it. It also has an almost leopard print look to the patterning which in turn changes different colours to the background depending on how the light touches it. This is definitely the more unique foil of the lot.

 Pacific Blue:

Pacific Blue is an electric medium blue foil that reflects blue, light blue, teal and green depending on where the light hits it. This rainbow reflections creates a holographic effect on the nail.

 Peacock Dazzle:

Peacock Dazzle is more of blue based teal colour with a water ripple like pattern covering the entire length of the foil. The ripple pattern of this foil sends out flashes of teal, light and dark blue and purple depending on where the light hits it creating a holographic look on the nail.

 Sapphire:

Sapphire is a royal blue foil with a mirror like reflecting metallic finish. There is no pattern to this foil only solid colour.

 Starburst Blue:

Like its name suggests, Starburst Blue is a royal blue foil with a starburst pattern covering the entire length of the foil. This pattern can also be seen in Gold Starburst foil. The starbursts then reflect teal, light and dark blue and green depending on which way the light hits it creating a holographic effect.

 Teal:

Teal is like its name suggests also, a blue green foil with mirror like metallic finish. This is more on the blue side than a green like some other teal colours you can get. If you want to see this foil in action, please check out Miss80Million's tutorial on Youtube here.

Nail Foils Collection and Descriptions - Purple Foils

Now on to my favorite list of nail foils, the purples! As most of you will know by now purple is one of my favorite colours so I was really excited to see what these foils would be like. I purchased these foils from Dollar Nail Art using my own money. In this post you will find product photos, close ups of the individual foils and also a brief description.

If you do not know what nail foils are or how to use them please follow this link to see my Introduction to Nail Foils post.

 

 Geisha Plum:

Geisha Plum is a slightly dirty looking grey purple with a hint of a red tinge to it that is lightly darker than Purple foil. It has not pattern to it but a nice mirror like reflect.

 Imperial Iris:

Imperial Iris and a pretty deep blue based purple with a nice holographic reflect to it. When the light hits this foil it reflects blue, pink, purple and red creating a really pretty holographic effect. This has a similar look to Gold Spectrum expect with a different base colour to it.


 

  

Lavender:

Lavender, as its name suggests is a solid pale purple foil with a highly reflective metallic finish. It is more of a grey purple than a blue purple which is kind of like. There is no pattern to this foil at all it is just a solid colour. 

 Lilac Crush:

Lilac Crush has a similar pattern to it like Diamond Red or Gold Crush with its tile like appearance except it has a lilac base. The tiles in this foil reflect a really pretty combination of green, teal, blue, pink and a light and dark purple depending on how the light hits it creating a really gorgeous holographic effect. Although this is a pretty simple foil, its one of my favorites.

  Periwinkle:

Periwinkle is a pretty purple foil with more of a blue base than any of the other purple foils shown here. The pattern on the foil is a mix between the tile look of Lilac Crush and the swirl look of Scarlet Frost. The pattern reflects a really pretty combination of blue, dark purple and teal depending on where the light hits it.

 Plum Drops:

Plum Drops has a red based purple foil similar in colour to Tanzanite Fire. The pattern on this foil looks like water droplets on plastic. The water droplet pattern reflects pink, red, blue and purple depending on which way the light hits it creating a pretty holographic effect. Out of all of the purple foils, this one is my favorite.

 Purple:

Purple is a blue based purple foil with a highly reflective metallic finish. It is darker and more blue purple than the Lavender foil. There is no pattern to this foil, it is just a solid colour.

 Tanzanite Fire:

Tanzanite Fire is a similar colour to Imperial Iris except it has more of a red base to it. The pattern on it resembles that of water in a pond. The ripple like effect on this foil reflects blue, purple, punk and red depending on where the light hits it creating a really pretty holographic reflect. To see this foil used please check tartofraises1's out video on Youtube here 

 Vivacious Violet:

Vivacious Violet is very similar in colour to Purple foil, the only difference is that it is slightly darker. You don't really need to buy both of these foils because they are so similar and I would personally go with the Purple foil over the Vivacious Violet because it is a little brighter. There is no pattern to this foil only a mirror-like metallic finish.

Nail Foils Collection and Descriptions - Orange and Red Foils

The following is next installment of my nail art foil collection. This one will contain all of my orange (well technically there is only one orange one lol) and red foils. I purchased these foils from Dollar Nail Art a few weeks ago and have been working my way through trying them all out. This post will contain a brief description of the effect that these foils have on the nail when applied as well as product photos to make is easier for you to choose which ones you would like to purchase if you choose to do to.

If you do not know what nail art foil is or how to use it please follow this link here to my Introduction to Nail Foils post for more information.

 Cherry O's:

Cherry O's is a blue based red foil with a hollow circle pattern and dots covering it. These dots and circles reflect blue, pink and purple depending on where the light hits it creating a pretty holographic effect. 

 Cherry Pie:

Cherry Pie is a solid blue based red with a metallic finish. It is not as reflective as the gold or silver foils but it still has some reflective qualities.

 Diamond Red:

Diamond Red is a blue based red foil with a diamond pattern similar to that seen in Gold Crush along the entire length of it. The diamond patter reflects pink, blue and purple depending where the light hits it creating a pretty holographic effect. To see this foil in use please check out tartofraises1's blog post here

Lipstick Red:

Lipstick Red is a solid blue based red with a metallic finish. It is similar to Cherry Pie but it is a little more red compaired to the slightly pink tone Cherry Pie gets when they are placed next to each other, it is also slightly darker. You really don't need both of these reds because as I said they are very similar and I would personally choose Lipstick Red because it is more or a true lipstick red like the name suggests.

 Peach Burst:

Peach Burst is a peach based foil with a holographic rainbow reflect to it. It is very similar to foils such as Gold Spectrum except with a different base colour. When applied on the nail it creates a line of rainbow reflection along the length of the nail. If you would like to see this foil in action please follow this link to a tutorial by Miss80Million on Youtube.

 Red Glitter:

Red Glitter is a very good name for this foil because that is a very good description of what the it actually loos like. This is a blue based red foil with a dotted pattern covering the entire length of it which shine like glitter in the light.

 Scarlet Frost:

Scarlet Frost is a blue based red foil with a swirling pattern covering the entire length of the nail. The swirls reflect pink purple and blue depending on where the light hits it. This foil reminds me of water on a lake.
