Gals Cosmetics

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

I have a Mani here that I did using Gals Plates.
This is a sister brand to Cheeky Beauty.
Gals brand does not only sell stamping plates but they also carry a line
of make-up and brush kits also.
All can be found Here

SURFS UP.....

I used GA 39 "Fairy Set" for the numbers 
On the thumb I used Holiday K plate
 I also used GA 10 "Princess Set"
I am the only One who has these Gals sets thus far.
If there is a certain image you would like to see swatched,
Please comment below and I'll be glad to help you. 
I have test sets, so some images have been changed or removed off
the final set. I know cuz I failed to do my homework fully
before I stamped. I had this mani done yesterday, I even cropped
all my pics and etc.. then before I posted I doubled checked and ..
well yeah. The image no longer existed. It wasn't a omg image either
so it really was no loss for you guys, plus what they switch it to is 
a much better image. 
I really love the bubble numbers they did. It's different and adds some spice.
I am really pleased that these 2 sets work so well with each other.

Thank You for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Cheeky Beauty Has X-Mas

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

How  many of you cashed in on Cheeky's Mega Sale a month or so ago?

Well I just had to have as many as I could. 
I truly LOVE these Jumbo Plates. I like how they give different
sizes and mirrored images as choices. It's Great for all types of nails,
even kids nails too. A very clever idea they had there.
Anyways many of you may have over looked some of these Jumbo
plates. Cheeky does have X-Mas images on Jumbo L. And not like 1-2 images either.
I had a tough time just deciding which images were going to make my final cut. There's
plenty of options with this plate to make great X-Mas Mani's.

SURFS UP....

These are all the products I used plus my UV Light from MASH
Cheeky Jumbo L,Cheeky's soft cotton rounds,
Funky Fingers Black,White &Platinum Record,
W`NW Red,Fresh Paints Spruce Street.
A polish remover pen & cuticle oil pen brush.

Do you want Santa to leave you any  nail goodies under your tree?
I know I do. I'll trade cookies and milk all day for nail goodies.
For your Santa List..
Cheeky Jumbo L Here
Cheeky Soft Cotton Rounds Here
MASH UV Light Here

Gals Plates with Cheeky Beauty Flower

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

I did another Mani using the Gals "Fairy Set"
The plates work great. The quality is extremely high and 
I would highly recommend these plates.
The full nail images are a little tricky for me to use with 
my long nails. But as you can see this hasn't stopped me
from using the plates. 

SURFS UP.....

 I used SC Fly Away as a base
IP= GA 30
Gal's Fairy Set can be purchased Here in 3-4 wks.
Cheeky Nail Decorations
These nail wheels can be purchased Here
In this Nail Set you get 5 wheels of different decorations/gems
for only $8.49 
The Cheeky decoration feels like a soft
fimo cane. The flowers are beautiful and very detailed.

Would you consider wearing flower decorations like these?

Thank You for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Measuring Shany 2013 (Full Nails)

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

Today I have some measurements on the Shany 2013 Set

These full nail images range in different sizes.
I've  chosen 10 different images to test.
For those who may not know 8/16 = 1/2inch


SURFS UP...
These images are "not" huge.
But if you use a silicone stamper you can easily stretch the image to fit your nails better.
I call my "My Squishy Stamper"
You can purchase one of these stampers Here
This is my Main Stamper I always use.

Thank you for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Shany 2013

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

I just received my Shany 2013 stamping plates.
There is 25 plates to this set. These plates do have a backing, but even with the backing on
when I slide the pile of plates on my table it did scratch my table up.
Thankfully I'm getting a new one soon.
There's a blue protective plastic covering each plate.
The set comes in a box similar to Cheeky's Summer set, But isn't as nice as Cheeky's.
Some of my plates seemed etched very deep with almost burn marks inside the images.
 I tested them and despite those marks the plates do work quit well.
The full nail images are on the small side.
I personally liked the set for the single images.

***HIGH TIDE WARNING*** (pic heavy)

SURFS UP...










I do see some dupes in this set. And I really don't need
yet another animal print.(zebra,cheetah)
But those single images are so cute I forget about those
repeating,boring images.
You can purchase this set on Amazon for $14.95
Shipping was extremely fast.

Thank you all for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Gals Nail Art Mani's

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

Today I have been busy doing New Mani's using Gals New plates 
These do stamp extremely well.
Even tho they are the smaller plates you can see below that I was still able to use them
on my long nails. They cover with no problem the widths. It's just the length for me.
But if I'm able to double stamp them than you guys should have no problems either.

SURFS UP.....

This is from the "Fairy Set"



I used GA 41

This is from the "Princess Set"
I used GA 23

My daughter even stamped her nails tonight using both sets together.
She used GA 38 & GA 22

I love how well these plates work well for both long and short nails.
These Gals brand plates are a sister brand to Cheeky.
Both sets will be available in 3-4 wks
And Yes Amazon will also sell them.
But do keep in mind that these are "Gals" Brand
when your searching Amazon.
These sets can be purchased here in 3-4 wks
Mean time check them out and zoom in on each plate. 

With these sets costing $12.99 & $15.99 each its really a steal of a price.

Thank you for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.

Ghostly Ghosts

Hello Nail Surfs

Welcome to My Beach

I hope everyone is safe from the Hurricane that is passing through.

I had major wind @ gusts to 60 mph and tons of rain last night. It's still rainy and windy here. It's been raining now for 5-6 days straight now and we have 2 more days of all day rain left. The ground here can't handle anymore rain. Lots of power lines are down,schools closings,flooded streets, trees are down everywhere and homeowners are dealing flooding, missing shingle,siding blown off of their house and even wooden fences were blown away. We have minor damages here compared to others that have lost their loved ones.


I have a Mnai to share with you that I did the other day. 
I am loving my New MyOnlineShop Plates..found Here

SURFS UP...


I used MJ 4 & MJ 6

These images are large enough for those with long and wide nails.
And these images still work great for those with shorter nails too.
The placements of each image makes them useful for all nails.
And if you wanted to use just a single image from a full nail design, it can be easily achieved.
These are all great extras you get when you buy these plates.

What are your feelings on these plates?

Thank you for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach :)

It's Halloween Time

Hello Nail Surfers..

Welcome to My Beach..

I have some Mani's to share with you all that I have done in the past few weeks.
I have been busy here on the home front and things won't calm down til hopefully by December.
So if you see I haven't posted in awhile its because things has not calmed down yet.
We are relocating. It's an exciting adventure but time confusing and frustrating also.
I will have my very own nail room with a beautiful view. Once things have all settled I will
be back at full force. :) Ohhh. I can't wait to have all my nail stuff spread out in the open.



SURFS UP.....

 In this Mani I used Cheeky Mega plate and stripping tape.
Which way to you liked better. 
Matte version above? or  Glossy as below?
I like the Matte look with this Mani.

Here's a Simple Lady Mani.
 I used Cheeky Mega C


In this Mani below I used the splatter technique and 
used Mash 29 and added some free-handed crosses.
 

I hope you enjoyed your visit  at my Beach.
