Do you lilac glitter flakes?

Hello hello! Okay, I'm lame. What can I say? :P To make up for it, I'll keep this short and sweet.

My bottle is really starting to show signs of use, I only have half of it left! Good thing I have a back up bottle...

I turned to the world wide web for some music images and came across this image so I decided to try and translate it onto my nails. I started off with two coats of Australis Blackmail. For my index and pinky, I layered two coats of Australis...

Review: Born Pretty Store nail wheel (and some nail art)

Hello everyone :) Since getting more into nail art, I thought I would try out my ideas on some fake nails before moving onto my own nails. This way, it saves me the trouble of removing the nail polish when the art flops... :P And of course, this is where the Born Pretty Store nail wheel comes in. How handy to have my nail art all on one wheel! The set of 10 nail wheels can...
