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

Yellon Neon polish from Born Pretty Store

 Hello there,
In the last post I made a nailart using a polish from the Born Pretty Store collection as a stamping polish.
This time I would like to show you the same collection used as a normal polish.
 id code #B07TLM6PR5 here you find the direct link to buy.


I prefer using neon polishes over white polish because the colour will result more vivid and vibrant.
Under natural light this yellow looks very nice, it is a cool toned yellow.
The formula is quite thin and flexible, it does not leave stripes and colour has full opacity and full coverage in one or two coats.

Under a Uv light the colour appear fluorescent and with a touch of green. 

There are others 8 shades to choose yellow, green, red, orange, violet,coral, pink and purple.
You can order them at this link:

make sure you will grab one before Halloween!

Magnetic sticks and how to use them!

Hello!
Today I want to show some simple design you can achieve with a magnet and a magnetic or cat eye polish!

The cat eye polishes are called like this because you can create a shiny strip down across the middle reminiscent of the piercing, beautiful eyes of a cat.

Magnetic polishes are a magical invention. With the power of a magnet, some pigments of the color are attracted to areas of the nail, and with movement and different viewing angles, shift colors and location on the nail for a futuristic 3D effect.

This is the most common effect for a magnet or cat eye polish, but with different kinds of magnet you can create many different nailart.

The company Born Pretty Store sent me two dueal ended magnetic stick to try.

The first one is a dual ended magnet stick for 3d effect.

You can get a 10% discount at @bornprettyofficial using my code: RASX31

So this is the most bastic look you can create.

It gives a strong 3d magnetic effect and can be easly oriented to create the image that you desire.
No surprise it is a best selling on the Born Pretty online store!
It is long and easy to hold.
There is a rectangular magnet on one end, and a round magnet on the other. The side of the rectangle magnet can be used to create lines, while the round magnet can create more fluid wave and circle patterns (this is the best if you want to create a space nebula illusion).

The application is very fast and easy.You need of course a magnetic polish and then a darker polish as base. These kind of polish need a base, a darker base works better with them.

Hold the magnet over the nail for 10-15 seconds, without touching it to the surface of the nail.
You will see that the magnet creates a pattern in the polish color, due to the iron shavings in the polish moving in the presence of a magnetic field.


You can have a preview of the effect simply olding it over a magnetic nail polish bottle.
The polish is form the Pearlescent Cat Eye Nail Polish collection and the shade is BP-PM04 Lycoris Radiata.

For the ring finger I used the other end of the stick, the round one. I used it to create and S shape pattern that reminds me of a galaxy.

This round magnet creates a hole of dark colour in the polish, so you can use to create any round shape you want.

On the others two nails I used this other dual ended stick

On one end of the tool there is a flower shaped magnet.

This is how the desing look in the thumb

 On the other end there are 4 dots in a line.

For this one I wanted to try  to create an abstract pattern a sort of animalier  creating holes with the stick.

Last but not least I have created lines moving the stick across the nails for a few times.

The plate measures  12cm x 6cm,is very well engraved and has different designs, I had no problems in picking up the images with different stampers.

Chamelion nail polish with duo-chrome flakies!

Hello there,
I recently received a nail mail from the online shop Beauty Big Bang.

Beauty Big Bang is an online store where you can find nail supplies and and make up. They have a wide range of products and they offer free shipping worldwide. The company is based in Asia and the shipping time are around 3-5 weeks, you can pay with paypal.

The first product I would like to show you is this beautiful Duochrome Chamelion nail polish.
 The polish is made up by a clear base with some chamelion flakes. The shade shift from purple, magenta pink and blue it depends on the light.
In the sun light it brights a lot and the shade of the glitter flakes shifts, it looks like a rainbow!

For these kind of nail polished you have to use a base, better if it is a dark one. For this nail art I used a very dark burgundy polish and two coats of the chamelion shade. I did not use a top coat but I would be interesting to see how it will look with a matte top coat.

You can find it at this link for 4.99 product code J6426TM-9A
https://www.beautybigbang.com/products/9ml-purple-duochrome-glitter-nail-polish-chameleon-nail-lacquer-varnish-009

The polish comes in a nice bottle that contains 9 ml of products, as you can seen from the picture the brush is quite large and easy to use, it has rounded shape to help the application.
The best way to apply it is with a dabbing motion like any other glitter polish.

Festival boho nail art with Beauty Big Bang water decals

There is a wide range of water decals and designs, I am sure you will find the right one for you.

The decals show some abstract pattern, it is inpired by nature and animals but has a minimal and boho touch. 

The design print is perfect, printed in hight resolution, lines are very sharp. I am a huge fan of water decals in general! They are super easy to use and you can spice up your nails instantly with intricate looking designs. They are also a great alternative to stamping when you want a professional look in a few minutes.

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 15-30 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 dry with a tissue. The last step is to secure it with clear nail polish.
