Born Pretty Store BP27 Stamping Plate Review & Discount Code



Hello readers,
Today I have another stamping plate from Born Pretty Store to show you.


The BP27 plate features two full nail designs along with six smaller stamps.  I tried out the leafy full nail design for this manicure.  I used it along with my rectangular squishy stamper so I could do my best at aligning the design vertically along my nails.

Layering With China Glaze Red-Y To Rave & Finger Paints Abstract Attraction


Hello readers,
Today  I have a fun polish combo to show you.  I started out with three coats of China Glaze Red-Y To Rave, a neon red creme.  (It really is that bright in person)!  Then I added two coats of Finger Paints Abstract Attraction, a mix of purple and blue irridescent flakes, over top.  Finally I sealed everything with a coat of Seche Vite.  Photos show the above mani in daylight spectrum lighting.

Orly On The Edge Swatches & Review


Hello readers,
Today I have a polish from the Orly Adrenaline Rush collection to show you.  I'm always drawn to a good blurple creme even though my camera hates them.


On The Edge is a dark blurple creme.  The formula was great and I used two coats to reach opacity.  The finished look is quite squishy for a creme, which I love! Despite trying every lighting combo I could think of  my camera did not want to capture the true colour of this polish.  The photos below are very close but it does lean slightly more purple in real life.  Photos show two coats of On The Edge with one coat of Nubar Diamont top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.
