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.

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.

Multi layered flower plates

Hello!
Today I'm sharing my recent nail mail of stamping plates from Born Pretty Store.
Like the previous one it is a multilayering stamping plate. These plates are quite unique, they're designed to be used to layer stamping images on top of each other to add depth, colour, patterns and outlines. They are meant to be used with clear stampers so that placement is precise.

Clear nail stampers can help line up the design so it’s straight on your nails. the applicator for the stamping process is crystal clear so the artist can place the stamp exactly in position. This also allows for layering in different colours without the previous disastrous results from stamping “blind”.

The plates has many gorgeous flowers design such has daisy, rose, carnation, jasmine, there are also some cute butterflies.
I believe this plate is less well engraved than others from this brand, but if you use a super sticky stamper it will be fine.

These plates are available from www.bornprettystore.com

Blooming nail art! Ink/ watercolour effect

Hello!
As you know I have a special love for the water colours/ink effect nailart.
The technique is borrowed from the world of fine art an the result is stunning!
 I’m using the traditional method of ink that you would typically find when painting on paper, it doesn’t require precision.

The brand Born Pretty Store created a line of Blooming nail polishes for this purpose.

I have picked two colours the first one is:
BP-HI02 The Soul of Cloud, it is a light pink. In the bottle it appears as a clear orange, but it it will turn pink once you apply it on the nail.

The other colour I picked is the blue:
BP-HI01 The Glory of Star
A light blue that as the previous one appears a lot darker in the bottle.

The clear polish for smudging is from Nicole Diary, a brand that Born Pretty Store sells on its online shop:
ND07
https://www.bornprettystore.com/nicole-diary-watercolor-marble-nail-blooming-nail-polish-nail-varnish-manicure-design-p-45546.html

These  nailpolish  formula is a lot different from normal ones, it more liquind and thinner and it has a different smell.

Here is a short video tutorial to show you how I used them

Prep the nail and apply two coats of white polish followed (Here I used a glossy top coat but It work better with a matte top coat because it create a better surface to apply colours). You have to careful and apply the white colour evenly with no any brush stokes visible. There should not be any lines on the surface.

When the white polish is completely dry you can start adding few drops of both colours.
Then I applied the transparent blooming polish from Nicole Diary to smudge and create the unique effect.

Let the colours blends and let it dry for a few seconds.

Add other coloured drops if you need to. DO NOT overwork the colors with your brush. Let it dry.

 Apply top coat to seal in the design. As you can see from the video with the top coat the colours will turn a bit lighter and saturated, Keep this in mind when you create  the design.

Botanical nailart! Multi layered stamping plate from Born Pretty Store

Hello!
Today I would love to show you another stunning plate from Born Pretty Store.

This brand always updates the collection with the latest trends. In the nail stamping world multi layered stamping plates are the latest innovation. Overlapping nail stamps allow you endless color combinations without the need to wait for a reverse stamp to dry.

With these kind of plates you will need a clear jelly stamper to enable you, to place your nail art more accurately and easily on the nail. With this stamper it is better to use a roller motion to pick up the design perfecly.

The plate is Overprint-L002 #45511 and has beautiful designs.

This plate came in a protective bag with a paper sleeve and the blue protective film. The company is putting a lot of effort in the presentation of the products and I appreciate it a lot.

I think this plate is very well edged. Each design transfers easily and was extremely sharp as you can see from the pictures.

As you can see from the pictures the stamping plate have many botanicals designs such as monstera palm, banana leaf, areca palm, a lotus flowes and many others.
It offers many decorations that you can mix and match. I love it!

As you can see each leaf or flower design has three different layers, one is the plain base colour, than you will add a second layer in a different colours with some details, then you will add an outline with a contrasting colour.

I used green for most of the leaves, then I added the details in gold or dark brown and the outline in black. This plate should be a perfect one for autumn too, you just need to swtich the colours from green to brown and yellow!

The stamping polishes I used are both from Born Pretty Store, the gold is  BP-WN01 In Fire, and the black is BP-WN03 Throne  #42857. They stamp perfectly and they are my favourite stamping polishes so far.

I hope you liked this nailart!
