La Vita è Bella 1986 Nail Decal Review

Oh my goodness, are you guys obsessed with vintage as much as I am?! If vintage is your style, then you're in a treat today because I have some pretty sweet nail decals from La Vita è Bella that were sent for me to review today. :) So keep reading if you're interested in checking out these water decals! I love how spiffy their packaging envelope is. :) 

La Vita è Bella 1986 Nail Decal Review
La Vita è Bella 1986 Water Decals

The first set of water decals that I want to show off are called Love Bird/Cotton Tree Decals and they're definitely my favorite set out of the 2 I was sent. :)

 These La Vita è Bella decals are the 3rd brand of water decals that I've worked with and they keep getting better and better! I love how thin the translucent paper become after you place the decal in the water. Be sure to check out my water nail decal tutorial here if you need visual photos on how to apply these decals. :) La Vita è Bella does include a VERY handy instruction sheet though when you order so you probably won't need my tutorial.

 These Love Bird/Cotton Tree Water Nail Decals come in a set of 20 (10 pairs of parrots and 10 cotton tree buds) for $3.50. The only polish I used was Sephora by OPI Neutral Beauty as my base color.

Random thumb shot just because I was able to fit a pair of parrots plus some cotton buds and branches on my thumb. ;)

My second set of water nail decals that I was sent by La Vita è Bella were called Vintage Mushroom Water Nail Decals. You can find this set for $4.50 and it comes with 40 mushrooms (10 white, 10 red, 10 blue, and 10 green). My base polish is Sinful Colors Cinderella topped with Jolie Polish Mermaid's Tail and then I added some strokes of green acrylic paint for grass. x) These mushroom decals are actually really cute!

And here is my last photo of  the Vintage Mushroom nail decals mattified. ;) I think the matte topcoat makes both of these set look extra vintage-y but the clear topcoat makes them really stand out! I don't know which way I prefer... I sure do love these fun decals though!

Final Thoughts? 
I have seen La Vita è Bella 1986 Nail Decals floating around other nail polish blogs/instagram pages but I am thrilled that I was asked to review these fun vintage nail decals! When looking for good water nail decals, you want to make sure that the decals are 1. Very thin when you pull them out of the water (like super thin plastic) and  2. Show up on ANY color background (not just light colors). I can safely say that these water decals hit both of those characteristics and are so easy to use and apply! I definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for cute and original water nail decals because the quality of their products are amazing. One last thing I'd like to note is that La Vita è Bella is located in Hong Kong so shipping does take a couple weeks but I can assure that the adorable packaging does make up for the time. ;)

You can shop for La Vita è Bella 1986 Water Nail Decals on their online BigCartel or Etsy Shop. I love how they do buy 3 water decal sets, you get one for free! All you have to do is make a note in your purchase order. :) Also find La Vita è Bella 1986 on Instagram and Facebook
