Adorable Cherry Blossom Nail Stickers

I started my SHEIN haul with some delightful cherry blossom nail stickers. These aren't your average water transfer decals; they have adhesive backing for easy application. The design features delicate blossoms on branches, plus individual flowers for versatile placement.

I appreciate the thoughtful design incorporating both branch and single flower elements, allowing for creative nail art. The perfect pink hue is incredibly versatile and can be styled with varying shades for a unique look.

I always purchase two of the same sticker pack to ensure symmetry on my nails. This ensures a consistent and pleasing aesthetic that's important to me.

Iridescent Flower Nail Stickers & Other Designs

Next up were iridescent flower nail stickers. The reflective quality adds a beautiful dimension to any manicure. The design includes both flower petals and a central piece, providing options for embellishment with pearls or rhinestones.

I also got some mixed flower stickers. These are cute and varied and would look great with pink and green ombre nails. There were also some pink iridescent flowers, again reflective, which include larger and smaller options as well as accents.

I avoid stickers with lettering unless I know what it says. I prefer to focus on the floral elements for a clean, elegant look. The stickers are versatile and suitable for spring and summer.

Silver Nail Charms: Hearts & Butterflies

I adore silver nail charms, especially those with rhinestones! I purchased silver heart charms, each adorned with sparkling rhinestones. They're very cute and reflective, perfect for adding a touch of glamour.

I also picked up some charming silver butterfly charms. Butterflies and hearts are my favorite types of nail charms, particularly in silver. These butterflies are very cute, though the design might snag without a topcoat.

The pointy bits of the butterflies necessitate a topcoat to prevent snags on hair or clothing. Despite this minor drawback, I love how these add a touch of whimsy.

Puffy Hearts and 3D Flower Nail Charms

The puffy heart nail charms are a trendy addition to my collection. I love this charming look and couldn't resist getting them since I'm not skilled enough to create this style myself.

I also got some 3D flower nail charms. I'm eager to learn how to create 3D nail art, and these give me a similar look until then. The set includes several colors and small pearls for embellishment.

I purchased two packs to ensure I had enough of each color and style. The vibrant colors are versatile and perfect for various nail art designs throughout the year.

Cream Chrome Nail Palette and ShayJ Gel Polishes

I was excited to try this pressed chrome palette instead of loose powder, hoping for better application. It turned out to be a cream-like consistency, which was surprising. It looks super pretty.

I also purchased a ShayJ base and top coat combination set. I love this brand's beautiful bottles and the quality of their products. This brand also has a Cat Eye polish in a beautiful full-size bottle.

I also grabbed a Blooming Gel polish from ShayJ. I've seen many inspiring designs using Blooming Gel on TikTok. The only downside is that the bottles are identical to the base/top coats. I will add labels to avoid confusion.

Ombre Nail Gel Palettes: Rainbow & Nude Series

I purchased two ombre nail gel palettes: a rainbow series and a nude series. I'm not great at ombre, so anything to help me achieve this look is a win!

The rainbow palette includes bright, fun colors. The packaging is double-layered for spill prevention, and a swatch card and sponges are included. The colors are numbered for easy reference.

Overall Conclusion

This SHEIN nail haul was a success! The nail stickers offer diverse styles for various occasions, the charms are charming, and the gels add some trendy options. The ombre palettes are particularly exciting for trying out gradient effects.

The quality of the products, especially the ShayJ gels, exceeded my expectations. While some charms may require a topcoat to prevent snagging, the overall value and selection make this haul worthwhile.

I especially appreciate the full-size bottles of gel polish, a welcome change from the tiny bottles some other brands offer. I highly recommend this haul for anyone looking to elevate their nail art game.
