Paris manicure

Hi,
I've recently returned from my trip to Paris that you can read more about here on my travel blog and wanted to share with you this Paris inspired manicure. I started with two coats of white nail polish and then applied some nail strips and painted Rimmel - Peachella over them. Using a sponge, I applied some glittery particles on the base of my nails. I stamped the Eiffel tower from Bundle Monster's BM-418 image plate and the heart and butterflies from Konad's m78 image plate. The perfume bottle on my pinkie is a water decal from Born Pretty store. I finished with clear top coat on all nails. What do you think?

Born Pretty Holographic Powder

Hi,
Today I'll show you my new sparkly manicure I created with Born Pretty's holographic powder. I started with one coat of Sephora - Black lace on all nails and then I applied the powder.


You can see that there's a little brush - exactly like an eye make up brush - to use for applying the powder on the nails. It's easy to apply, but the effect is not so breathtaking like the chrome powder I told you about here. The final look is ok in both cases, but I needed more product to achieve this look, compared to the chrome powder which was perfectly opaque after applying just a small quantity of product. 

I created the unicorn using this sheet of nail vinyls. After applying the vinyl, I applied the powder and then removed it and got the little unicorn. Finally, I applied clear top coat on all nails. What do you think of the final look? Have you tried the nail powder yet?

Shiny unicorn nails

Hi,
Today I'll show you a new colourful holographic manicure. I started this nail art with a coat of white nail polish and after it dried, I applied a few drops of Rimmel - Tangerine Taint, Trind - Burst My Bubble and El Corazon - Matte Effect #145 Neon on each nail and created the saran wrap base. Then I applied a coat of ILNP - My Private Rainbow, which is a beautiful holographic top coat. On my accent nail, I created a shiny silver unicorn using a stencil from TwinkledT's Animal Variety Vinyls pack. The rhinestones are from Born Pretty store and you can find them here on their website. I finished with clear top coat to seal in everything. What do you think?

Birthday nails

Hi,
Yesterday was my birthday so I created a festive and colourful manicure. I decided to mix chevrons, stripes, polka dots and a 3D ribbon and below you can see the result. The nail polishes used for this manicure were Rimmel - Sky High, Rimmel - Central Love Heart, Avon - Iceberg White and Shimmer Polish - Tracy. 

The 3D bow on my ring finger is from Born Pretty's 12 colours bowknot box . I only used top coat to stick it on the nail and it resisted very well.

What do you think?
