76 | NAILS MAGAZINE | APRIL 2014 Joby Nail Art released its new gold nail art stickers, which provide nail techs with a simple way to achieve a scrollwork look on clients' fi ngertips without meticulous painting. 1. Clean the surface of the nail. Manicure the nail in the color of your choice. Skip top coat and wait for the nails to dry completely. 2. Choose the sticker you want and lift it of the paper with an orangewood stick or tweezers. 3. Place it on the nail and gently press down. 4. Apply a generous top coat to ensure the design is secure. Quick-dry top coats should not be used with Joby Nail Art stickers. Quick-dry solutions have a tendency to cause the edges of the sticker to roll. This spring, OPI launches new color-tinted top coats called Sheer Tints. They offer a fresh take on traditional top coats featuring an infusion of high-shine transparent color. These top coats can be worn alone, with a base coat, or layered over any shade to create an alternate fi nish. Four vivid hues of blue, pink, yellow, and purple are the fi rst to be available. Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI co-founder and executive VP, additionally suggests using Sheer Tints to accent glitters and darks, transform creams and shimmers, or add dimension to your ombre designs and on-trend nail art. "Nail color is all about self-expression," she says. Hues include I'm Never Amberrassed, Be Magentale with Me, Don't Violet Me Down, and I Can Teal You Like Me.
