H&M Snow White Skittles - Glitter & Stamping

Hi all, happy Tuesday!

No doubt by the time this posts I'll be powering through work not even realising the time!

This is a mani I did a week or so back, with the H&M polishes that I won from Rainbowify Me. Make Me Blush Is the nicest peach I've ever found with my skin tone, and although the formula is a little runny, the coverage is amazing. Nothing like the dreaded Revlon Peach Smoothie. I decided Snow white would look quite cool over black, so I've used that layering combo for my ring finger. Also the Silver Frost is a lot nice than it looks here, the flash on my camera kind of kills the lightness that the glitter gave to the mani.

Base Coat: CND Stickey

Index & Pinky: H&M - Make Me Blush & Silver Frost

Middle: Three Coats of H&M - Snow White

Ring: W7 - Black & One coat of Snow White
Image Plate: Born Pretty Store QA5
Stamp Colour: BYS - Black Satin
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

I did a gradient on my thumb using Make Me Blush, and W7- Blackm topping with two coats of Silver Frost

And here's a couple shots of the base colours themselves.

Middle: Three Coats of H&M - Snow White

Ring: W7 - Black & One coat of H&M - Snow White

Please excuse the lobster hands in the next photo, but it really shows how bright Snow White is even in horrible lighting.

Snow white is really much more than a silvery white frost, it's really beautiful in decent light, and I'm going to try and capture that this weekend if I can.

Hope you've all had a good start to the week :]

Born Pretty Store Review

Hi all, recently I was contacted again by the Born Pretty Store to see if i'd want to try out any of their newer products, I chose two plates and a polish to try out, and today I have some swatches to show you.

For those of you who aren't aware of Born Pretty Store, they sell a massive range of nail art products, and many other items.

Here's what I asked to try:

Below is two coats of the BK Polish in number 1

Please excuse the dings and scratches, totally my fault. This is without any clean up at all. And honestly this was totally opaque in one coat I only added the second as it feels odd only wearing one coat.

Image plate QA5  Above is stamped in Konad polish, below is In BK #1 Sweet Candy Fast Dry

As you can see most of the images transferred really well, and there were only two images on this plate I actually had problems with. The smallest of the bow image below, and the two pointy bows above that should have stitching detail. Other than that I'm really happy with this plate and I'm looking forward to using the bow images especially.

 And last but not least; the angry birds image plate QA17.

These all stamped amazingly well, but they're larger than I expected so I'm yet to see what they look like on my small-ish nails.

So there you have it. I'll have some mani's coming up with one of the bow images shortly. If you're interested in anything from the Born Pretty Store, don't forget to use my coupon code DS5X31 for 10% off your order.
