Mani Monday!!

Hey Lovelies! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! To start off my week right I came up with this beautiful mint and navy blue combo. I started off with two coats of Essie's Mint Candy Apple on my inner two fingers and Bobbing for Baubles on my outer two fingers and thumb. Once that was dry I went in with the same colors and stamped image plate BM-314.



(Note to self: Never try to stamp at 5am....you become sloppy lol)

Eco-Friendly Nail Polish and Nail Stamping Plate M59 Review

Hey Lovelies! Today I am coming at you all with another review from the Sweet Color Lolita nail polish line from the Born pretty store and stamping plate M59. Let me just start off by saying I have had the worst track record with white nail polish. I like to say we have a love hate relationship because I can never find a white polish that isn't super thick, streaky, or gunky. So I was super skeptical when I got this white polish considering my track record but WOOOO HOOOO BUDDY!!!!! This is THE BEST white polish I have EVER used! It's everything you want from a white polish! Item ID: 4512 is creamy, glossy, has great application, dries fast, streak free and best of all it's a one coat wonder! Yes you heard me right! I only used one coat to achieve this beautiful look. If all that hasn't got you running to the Born pretty store yet to top it off it's eco-friendly!!



For this look I used two coats of China Glaze Grape Pop topped with one coat of China Glaze's Fairy Dust. Once that was dry I went in with Essie's Bangle Jangle and stamped image plate m59 that I got from the Born pretty store. To top off this look I added a clear rhinestone for a little added bling. I have been wanting this plate for the longest time and I am so happy that I picked it up. When scraping and transferring the image from plate to nail I got a clear and crisp bow every single time. I highly recommend this plate if you love bows and hearts!   



Not only does the Born pretty store sell eco-friendly polish, they also supply nail art supplies, cell phone cases, makeup, hair supplies and so much more! They also ship worldwide and it's free shipping!! If your interested in grabbing a few of these beauties for yourself swing on over to the Born pretty store and don't forget to use the coupon code JFL91 to get 10% off your entire order!!

Pink Wednesday

Hey Lovelies! For today's look I started out with one coat of Essie's Watermelon and two coats of Mint Candy Apple. Once they were dry I went in with my MASH Nail Art Polish in Black and stamped plate SH-201 for the Hello Kitty designs. To finish off this look I did a simple two color water marble with Mint Candy Apple and Watermelon on my middle finger and sealed it all in with a coat of Seche Vite.

Halloween Nails: Black Blood and Rag Dolls

Hey Lovelies! For today's look I started off with 3 coats of China Glaze Stone Cold. This polish dries on with a very dull matte finish but sparkles beautifully with a glossy top coat! Once my 3 coats are fully dry I went in with my MASH Nail Art Polish in Black and stamped Konad's plate m13. I finished this dark look with a coat of Seche Vite top coat. 





Eco-Friendly Nail Polish From BornPrettyStore.com Review

Hey Lovelies! Today I am so excited to be reviewing Sweet Color Lolita nail polish from Born pretty store. The color I am wearing is item ID: 3980. She is a beautiful flat creme finish medium toned grey color. Since this polish is eco-friendly its consistency is very watered down so you have to apply more coats then a regular polish but in return you get a flawless streak free application. 



 For this look I have 1 layer of OPI's Original Nail Envy as my base and 3 layers of Sweet Color's nail polish in item ID:3980. 



This is the first eco-friendly nail polish I have ever tried and I'm very very impressed with its quality. I love everything from its consistency to the adorable bottle it comes in but the best part of it all is that it doesn't have that over barring chemical smell that makes you want to pass out when your painting your nails. I highly recommend this product not only to people who use eco-friendly products but to all nail polish lovers! I can't wait to pick up the rest of the colors in the collection! 

Not only does the Born pretty store sell eco-friendly polish, they also supply nail art supplies, cell phone cases, makeup, hair supplies and so much more! They also ship worldwide and it's free shipping!! If your interested in grabbing a few of these beauties for yourself swing on over to the Born pretty store and don't forget to use the coupon code JFL91 to get 10% off your entire order!!

Once my base color was dry I went in with my MASH Nail Art Polish in black and stamped the pumpkin image off plate m13 from Konad and the bat image off plate BM-213. 




What will you be rocking on your nails this Halloween?

31 Day Challenge! Day 11- Polka Dots

Hey Lovelies! Today is day 11 of the 31 Day Challenge and we are doing polka dots! Let me start off with saying please don't make fun of my poor dotting skills! I am very embarrassed with how this mani turned out and I really want to stuff it into the back of my closet where it will never be seen again! HAHAHA. For this look I started out with 2 coats of Wet n' Wild's I Need A Refresh-Mint and went in with my large and small dotting tool with Disturbia.

31 Day Challenge! Day 10- Gradient Nails

Hey lovelies! Today is day 10 in the challenge and we are doing Gradients! For my five color gradient look I used China Glaze's Agro, Riveting, Harvest Moon and OPI's The One That Got Away. This was the first gradient I have ever done with polish that had glitter in it and it will be the last! It was so darn hard to get the glitter out of my cuticles and off my skin! From now on I will stick to cream polishes when I do gradients and just add glitter if I'm dying for that extra something.
