Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys ! Happy Monday . How was your weekend ? Mine was pretty chill - I think I might have had a super quiet weekend - but I really enjoyed all the chill time.  Today I have another fun mani to share with you guys. I have 1more  BornPrettyStore  plate to use and share - and I saved this to use in the cooler months here . I really love how easy these plates are to pick up the designs - as I mentioned I do have a MoYou plates but they are much harder to pick up the images. The images picks up flawlessly and all look pretty amazing ( I will share some stamping images at the end of the post ) . The link to the plate is  HERE .  The colours I used : Essence White on White China Glaze Fairy Dust Essence All That Greys Back To Black  So onto the nail look -  And some stamping swatches - so you can get a feel for the plate : I really love the plates - these are pretty easy to use and I would 100% would recommend...

Hi guys ! Happy Thursday ? How has your week been ?  Today I'm sharing two manis as well as two product reviews from  BornPrettyStore  - a gorgeous design (although these aren't too florally - I love the design of this plate ) and the Cuticle Guide Nail Protectors .  First off - I haven't used any of the Born Pretty Store rectangular stamping plates - so I was pretty impressed with the size of this one . The images all pick up perfectly - which is great since I have Mo You plates that cost a lot more that doesn't pick up the images well. I use a squishy clear stamper for all the stamping I do.  I did two manicures with two different designs so far (I'm still wearing the pinky one as this was my Valentine's week mani ) . For this mani I used : Essence White on White Essence Grey Zone China Glaze Haunting China Glaze Fairy Dust And onto nail look two -  For this mani I used : Avon Magic Lace Polish (Pink) Revlon Chard...

Hi guys ! Happy Thursday. How has your week been ? Mine has been an extremely long week so far - I really can't wait to get home on Saturday afternoon from work and just chill.  As I mentioned in my last nail related post - I am trying to make a bit more effort with my nails this year. Water Decals makes having pretty nails so much easier - it really takes a few seconds for some gorgeous art on your fingertips.  Today I'm sharing  THESE  pretty water decals from  BornPrettyStore  . Again - I went predictable for me and went with owls (Can I just say I am having so much fun with these owl decals )  I love using them as accent nails instead of full Mani's - I find that way the look doesn't look too overly done . I picked the cute pink owls - but how gorgeous are those top row of owls too ?? So onto the nails : And a little close up of the star of the show - the little pink owl :  The colours used : Essence White On Whit...

Hi guys ! Happy Thursday . How has your week been so far ? Mine is actually pretty good so far so I don't have any complaints.  Back in November Born Pretty Store contacted me to offer me some goodies to review on the blog, and while the postage time did suck over the Holiday period - I finally received the goodies last week and I'm sharing the first nail look I did with them with you today . THESE  decals from  BornPrettyStore  includes some fun Christmas inspired owls , as well as some everyday owls. While Christmas might be over , I couldn't wait to play with these decals as I love Owl everything. Water decals always have the prettiest designs - and they are super easy to use too. I love using them as accent nails instead of full Mani's - I find that way the look doesn't look too overly done . So onto the nails :  The colours used : Essence White On White China Glaze Glistening Snow China Glaze Fairy Dust Tip Top Milkyway OPI ...

Hi guys ! Happy Tuesday. How was your Monday ?? Did you have a nice weekend ?  Today I will be sharing my first Breast Cancer Awareness mani with you guys - as October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. As always PinkDrive has a few great options on their site to donate. They have such amazing brooches this year you can buy to support the cause - and let's be real who can't do with a pretty brooch for a great cause ??  As I always try to donate to Breast Cancer Awareness causes  , I did a matching mani to show my support. There is also quiet a few brands that bring out a "PINK" version of products and donate a percentage to Breast Cancer Awareness causes, if you can try and support them.  If you would like some more info on PinkDrive , I'm including all their social media links : http://www.pinkdrive.co.za https://www.facebook.com/ ThePinkDrive So onto my first Breast Cancer Awareness mani for 2016 -  For this mani I used : W...

 Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ? Today I am sharing another fun nail look with the polishes I mentioned  HERE  last week. I have a full review on the two colours in the link. Along with the 2 gorgeous polishes,  NailCandi  send me some Chevron tape, and I bought the Liquid Palisade earlier this year , so I will be showing how it works in my little tutorials in the end too.  But first onto the skittlette mani -  can I just take a moment to say I'm completely in love with how gorgeous this is ? This mani is so me - I love Chevron pint - and the Nail Candi  Chevron Tape  is one of the easiest ones I have used. The peel of super easily - and they don't peel of your polish underneath. One of the reasons I prefer to sponge on the colour on top - I feel you get a much neater look in the end .  I bought the  Nail Candi Liquid Palisade  earlier this year for gradients / glitter gradients - and it's such an amazing ...
