Hello!
How ya doing? I just got done binge watching season one of World of Dance while doing manicures. I so wish I could dance...sigh...
Anyway, today I have five selections from Incoco's Coconut Collection to show you. What's their Coconut collection, you ask? Well, Incoco has sort of reorganized...you can buy their original brand through Ulta Beauty, you can buy the Coconut line from Walmart, or you can go through an independent stylist to buy from their Color Street line--you can't buy directly from their website anymore. So, let's take a look at a few of the Coconut offerings...

The Coconut sets are a little smaller than the other sets Incoco makes (12 vs. 16 wraps). This means that you have fewer size alternatives. In my case, they sizes work just fine for me. But, if they don't work for you, they're extremely easy to cut down to size, and I have a video tutorial (below) to show you just how easy it is. The sets come with instructions, a nail file, and an orange stick:
So first up, we ave Sweet Style:

Roses, polka dots and stripes on a shimmer background--these are classic mainstays of nail art that never go out of style. And if you use my sizing trick (in the tutorial below), you can get more versatility to mix and match them however you want.
Next, we have Steal The Show:

This is a copper-brown and black leopard print on a gold shimmer background. Animal prints are another nail-art stand-by, so these wraps are an easy way to get the look quickly and easily.
Next up is Less is More, a sleek, elegant beige creme wrap with a minimal linear design:

This is a great neutral look for when you want a little art, but not much--very appropriate for work, very appropriate for when you meet the potential in-laws for the first time out on their boat in the Hamptons. Okay, so that's not a scenario I'm ever gonna face, but that doesn't mean my nails can't look like I will.
You all know me well enough to know that if you give me something that can be stamped, I'm gonna stamp it:

For this look I used Mani Defender (latex cuticle barrier) to mask off part of the design, and then stamped UberChic Beauty 25-02 and Kaleidoscope Black. Simple, fast, and if I do say so myself, kinda cute.
Then we have Trendsetter, another linear design, this time on a pale blue creme background:

I chose to go vertical and horizontal on my two middle fingers, and diagonal on the others, but of course you can combine them however you want for your own overall look. This has a Breakfast-at-Tiffany's-meets-Mondrian sort of feel that I really like.
And finally we have Right This Way, a mint shimmer with a scatter of gray arrows:

This is my favorite set of the group--the color is soft and feminine and the arrows are hip and a little bohemian.
But...again...if you give me a chance, you know I'm gonna stamp on it...:

I love doing my own nail art from scratch, obviously--that's why I have a nail art blog. But I've always loved Incoco wraps. I don't always have time to do a mani when I need to, especially during vacations and holidays, and I can always grab a set of wraps and throw them on quickly, but still have a cute look. I've also been known to mix-and-match sets, or just pull out a couple one or two for accent nails.
I've tried A LOT of different nail wraps, and Incoco are my favorite. They apply easily, they remove easily, and they really to wear for a long time. Here's a video tutorial to show you how I apply them, for a super cute mani in no time flat:
You can find Incoco's Coconut Collection at Walmart, and their other sets at Ulta Beauty.
