Holographic Nail Powder Super Shine



Hello!
This week is full of nail art reviews!
I really love holographic powder! It is such versatile invention, you can mix it in your favorite polish, use it in a top coat, dab it and cover the entire nails, you can do french nails and so on.!
I am always excited to try new powder and textures,

Few days ago I tried this new powder from Born Pretty Store. This was part of a pr sample that the company sent me.


You can find this product at this link:
http://www.bornprettystore.com/born-pretty-holographic-nail-powder-super-shine-sequins-manicure-nail-pigment-glitters-p-40866.html


I selected the colour b26 (an holographic silver shade) but on the site you have 10 colours, next time I will be very eager to try another colour such as red or green, perfect shades for Christmas.

It comes in a nice plastic container and a sponge applicator. The powder is quite flakie-like and the are dust is made up by fine glitters and bigger glitter.

I was curious to know how it looked like on nails so I decided to use it over a white base. As top coat I used a holo glitter top coat for two reasons: it will fill the gaps and it will enhance the holo refraction.
 I love the fact that is has a raw finish, similar to  sand, stucco, or rock like finish. This makes the look very unique! Another big pro of this kind of nail style is that glitters are very long lasting! You will have hard time to take them off!





Here is a small video to show the holo effect. I find it very difficult to capture with a camera the holographic effect, but believe me it is stunning in real life.

Graffiti nail foil!



Hello again!
While seaching for holo/shattered/glass foil I have tried many many foils!
The one that I used in this nail art is from Born Pretty Store , I have n 165, this pattern has a marble/rainbow effect it is iridescent and beautiful. The foil is almost a 1 m long and 4 cm wide.

You can use my coupon code at check out to get 10% off RASX31 on www.bornprettystore.com




This kind of foil is meant to cover the whole nail with a special glue for foils. I have one fro Ciatè but I found it very tricky to use so I applied it only on the middle finger.

 For the rest of the nails I went for a graffity/distressed look easier to achieve. You can use a normal clear nail polish, you can apply one coat over the colour you want and when it is almost dry (it has to be a bit tacky) you press the foil onto the nail, rub a bit and remove quickly the foil. Some random pieces of foil should be on your nails.

As base you can use any colour you want but I prefer dark shades with this kind of foils.




I hope you'll like the result!
Se you soon!
