I love these cute little frog water decals I ordered off Ebay!

They were only £1.25 and arrived in 2days...Fantastic.

I've seen that water decals are the popular nail art trend at the moment, and they are so easy to apply, wow! They're super cute so I'll most definitely be ordering more.

Here's what I used and how I applied the water decals:

1. Water in a shallow bowl
2. Pack of water decals
3. Scissors
4. Polish of your choice
5. Sponge (for creating ombre effect)
6. Choice of colours (I chose Jessica - King tuts gem & Saffron London - Colour 11)
7. Cotton discs
8. Nail polish remover
9. Nail art brush (To remove polish off your skin after doing the ombre with your sponge)

For one hand:

1. Apply white polish all over nail and wait until dry
2. Soak a make-up sponge in your water bowl and squeeze until its only damp
3. Apply a line of white polish on the sponge and then blue polish directly underneath the white - overlap them slightly
4. Dab the sponge on your nail until you get your desired look and then wait until your polish is dry - if your polish isn't very thick, just wait until its dry and then apply another layer.
5. Cut around your water decals shape (just a square will do but get as close to the pattern/shape as you can)
6. Place the cut up water decals in the water and wait 30 seconds to soak
7. Pick out your water decals and the pattern should come away from the paper its placed on
8. Apply the shape/pattern where you would like it to be on your nail and apply pressure to squeeze water out from underneath
9. Using a cotton disc, dab over the top of the water decal to remove excess water
10. Tidy up any excess polish on your skin with you nail art brush and nail polish remover
11. To finish off apply top coat
