I'm honestly thankful for my continuation work with KKCenterHK. As a blogger, there are highs and lows. When a company wants to continue working with you, it's amazing! I will not go into details but I'm sure a lot of bloggers will understand. The reason I'm mentioning this is that I highly recommend KKCenterHK. They're just a great company in every way possible!

For this blog post, I will focus on their KKCenterHK N.Nail Black White Heart Lace Water Decals. I've reviewed/showed a lot of water decals; Hello Kitty, Sneakers, and Star Glitter. For that reason, I will not have a thorough review.

Here's a closer look of the decal. The empty spots are the white decals.
I've had people ask me how I get the decal off the background paper. I soak it in water for couple of seconds using a Tweezer. The paper becomes soft and wrinkly. Then I push it with my finger. If that doesn't work, I soak it more until it does. Here's how it looks. Then I grab the decal with a Tweezer and lay it where I want on my nail bed.
This is a picture I took from KKCenterHK. I wanted to show you the design they did.
Here's what I did with the decal. You don't have to follow the rules, and you can get as creative as you like. I applied 2 coats of L'Oreal in Now You Sea Me on all the nails except ring finger. I applied 2 coats of L.A. Colors in Live on the ring finger. I put the water decal on the index and middle finger. Then I topped it off with Butter London P.D. Quick Topcoat.

Now for my overall opinion... Since I have thorough reviews (Hello Kitty, Sneakers, and Star Glitter), I will base this on that. First of all and you know, I'm a huge fan of water decals. I rather use water decals than stickers for many reasons. I noticed with stickers, it eventually comes off even with top coat. Water decals don't unless you get to the point of chipping. I also think it's easier to work with decals than stickers. Since stickers have a sticky background and if you touch a certain part on your nail bed, it's hard to move. With decals, you can move by adding more water. It's not permanent until you add the top coat. The only thing I could think of with water decals is that it's not best to go over with top coat. Once you apply, don't repeat that area or the markings will rub off. Other than that, water decals are the bomb!

Would repurchase: Yes!

Oooh, I love this lace design! It looks so pretty on your nails. :) I bet the white ones would look sweet on a pink base. :D
