The product I would like to review today is this beautiful stampin plate. It is from the brand Nicole Diary and it is number 104 id code #46772

I adore flower stamping and this place is stunning, there are various flowers designs some roses, dayses, butterflies, cherry blossoms, leaves mixed with geometric elements such as lines, dots, diamonds, triangles and squares.
I really find the kinds of designs very modern and edgy.
The images a really in many different sizes and you can use them orizzontally or vertically to fit any nail size! You can mix some of the desings use the geometric elements as background or add lines next to the flowers pattern, you can also layer many details in different colours.

The plate is made of high quality stainless steal which ensure the high quality of the product.
Deep and precise carving give  better stamping effect than normal stamping plates.

For this nailart  I used a metallic colour as base. It is Day Off from Madam Glam

and for stamping I used my favourite black stamping polish from Born Pretty Store : "Throne" id product # 42857 . This black it's so pigmented, it will stamp perfectly over any colour and it is so easy to pick up and transfer onto the nail.black

The plate is very well engraved and has different designs, some geometric lace pattern and some flower too. There are some vertical long stripes and some oriziontal. You can easily use this plate for an accent nailart or for a bridal nail art using a white stamping polish over a nude nailpolish.
The plate is very well engraved and I had no problems in picking up the images.

In this nail art I used a holographic nail polish as base, the nailpolish shade is number 001 (sku #J6414TM1A).

Holographic nail polish from Beauty Big Bang

Holo of the day! Beautiful silver holo nailpolish from @beautybigbangnail. This shade is number 001 (sku #J6414TM1A).
It is a silver colour, the basic holo colour that I miss in my collection (incredible right?), but there others shades available, some beatiful pink and gold rose shades that I would like to try soon.

The bottle contains 8 ml, the formula is quite watery but easy to apply and dres really fast!


I love the fact that it is sheer and you can use as a top coat too. I think this will look good on dark colours such as black or dark burgundy. I think holographic polish look their best with a glossy clear top coat!
You will need 2 or 3 coats for a full coverage. It is stunning under natural direct light.

Red glitter peel off nail polish

Hello there!

As you know I was recently  contacted by Born Pretty Store to review some more products for you guys. 

If you're not familiar with Born Pretty Store, they're an online store and they offer beauty and nail art supplies. The store offers inexpensive items and free worldwide shipping with no minimum purchase required. I love Born Pretty and have been buying their products for years.

Today I would like to share with you my first impression on their brand new peel off nail polishes.

The colour I picked is Winter Light BP-FV04  # 44292  . Is is a beautful cool toned red with delicate holo glitter. I really like this shade, is delicatete and elegant.

What makes this polish special is the fact that it is a peel off polish, It is means that this is a water-based nail polishes that can be peeled off. You just have to gently loosen the edges, and they come off in one go.

I love this kind of polishes because you do not need acetone for removal you can switch colour very easily and match your outfit, moreover you won't get the acetone smell around your house anymore.

These kind of polishes have no smell and dry fast, you don't need acetone to remove it so it is gentle to the nails.

As far as I can say my first impressions of the formula are positive, it is a little less liquid than normal polish, is more like a gel and it quite easy to apply on the nail, it is a little bit sheer but since it has glitters the effect is beautiful. You need two or three coats for full opacity.

The peel off formula is great for glitters, with normal polishes glitters are a nightmare to take off , with a peel off formula is super fast and easy!

I can't say about how long it will lasts and how it peels off, these are just my first impressions, I will update you soon about these matters.

Burgundy lace nails! Beauty Big Bang nails

Hello!
Welcome back for another post on my blog.
This blog post is about this gorgeous lace nail art plate from Beauty Big Bang the product ID is XL-015 (id product BBBXL-015).
It is a beatiful plate that features all very detailed lace images.

What I like the most about this plate is that it has 14 different images with different designs, some are flower pattern  and others are geometric or abstract but they are all very elegant.

The plate measures 6*12cm and the images are quite large so they will fit even longer nails.
It cames in protective paper sleeve with the brand name on it and like any other plate it has a blue film that has to be removed before use.

The plate is very well engraved and it picks up every image perfectly, make sure you use a pigmented polish for stamping.

For my nail art I decided to use the nails I used as swatches in the previous post, I used different colours and as top coat I used the Misty Rose Shiny Mermaid Shell Nail Polish.
In this case different colours can give a bit variations on a plain stamping.

I really like the design on the middle finger it has a nice retro vibe, like a a 60ies wallpaper. I decided to stamp with a a metallic dark burgundy from Kiko.
I really like the result and I think this plate is a must have if you love lace design, it can be wonderful for a wedding nail art in white or for a sexy Valentine nail art in black or red. You can create a huge variety of gorgeous nail art designs.

Stained shattered glass! Nail tape and wax pen from Born Pretty Store

Hello!
I feel really inspired today!
I just received some products form Born Pretty Store and I wanted to use them all... well at least some of them.

The first one is this set of mermaid iridescent tape.
You can order one singular piece or all the colours: grey, purple, blue, green, pink and yellow.
Of course I wanted them all there all 3 sizes available 1 mm, 2 mm and 3 mm. The ones I used here are 3 mm.

This product can be used onto natural nails or false nails, with normal polish or gel.

I love how the colours are very delicate but still visible and I am in love with the iridescent effect.
These tape is self adhesive so it does not need a wet polish, it can be easilt cut in small pieces to create a beautiful shattered glass effect.

In my nail art I tried to follow the rainbow colour  from indaco to red/pink.
 Then I accentuated the shattered effect with black lines, like a stained glass effect.
For this I used a striping brush and some acrylic black paint. then I sealed with a clear nail polish.

For the ring finger I used the tape vertically across the nail and the I added some triangular holo paillettes.

The sequins are beautiful but they a bit tricky to pick up because of the triangula shape. This time I had this wonderful tool to help me: this wax pencil picker.

On one end it has a sticky wax tip that will help you to pick it up rhinestones and studs or even foil paper. Since I have long nail I have been having hard time picking up small pailettes and this tool is very useful.  On the opposite end there is a metal tool that it is meant to push onto the rhinestones or sequins to make sure it is stuck into the glue.

I really love this product, the only advice I have is that if you live in cold country or you use this product in winter you have to warm a bit the wax point with your hand.
The wax won't stain the rhinestone because it is clear.
I really appreciated the fact that the product comes in a nice hard plastic box that prevent any kind of damage and help you store it easily. you can also pick a colour: pink or this tiffany light blue, m favourite.

Cherry blosson and red bird nail art!

Hello there!
Today I am going to review some water decals from Born Pretty Store.

The company was very kind to let me select some products to try. I really love water decals because they are very easy and fast to use and e result is stunning. You will easily get compliments for your nails from everybody who notice them.

This time I've chosen an elegant oriental and vibrant design.
You can find it here .
There are many others patterns available, I am sure you will find a pattern you like.

If you decide to give this product a try please don't forget to use my coupon code, it will give you another 10% off:    RASX31 on www.bornprettystore.com

The application is very easy.
The waterdecals are protected by a transparent sheet. You can select the size and the design you want, cut it with a scissor. Don't forget to remove the plastic sheet. Cut out the section of decals, and let it soak in room temperature water for about 20-30 seconds, slide the decals off the paper backing with tweezers and place on the nails with the white or nude base coat
The instructions suggest to place it on  the nail and blow dry. The last step is to secure it with clear nail polish. In my case with a matte top coat.

The pattern is number 1594. I think it is very beautiful, it has flowers and blossoms in a pink and red shade, some others in beige. It reminds of an early oriental spring of the cherry blossom season in Japan. There is also a red bird that I decided to place on the ring finger.

  I think this kind of waterdecals work best on a light base. I used a sheer white cream colour. 

On thumb and pinkie I used a matt red with a bit of shimmer. (I personally mixed this shade ans I am very pleased with how it tuned out)!
