Hello hello~ A rather random title today because I really don't know what to call this manicure. At least it's a move away from the blue/green shades ;) I started off with OPI My very first knockwurst as a base polish on all my nails and then jazzed them up a bit.
Pinky & index: I used a dotting tool and Ulta3 lily white to do the dots.
Ring & thumb: Using a white striper brush,...

Review: Butterfly sequin nail decals
Hello hello :) Born Pretty Store also offered me the chance to try out another new product, which are some gold butterfly sequins that can be used for nail art. According to them, there are 1000 pieces in the little bag. I totally have not counted (hello there, mountain of uni assignments!) but there are so many they'll last you a lifetime :) I decided to put together a skittled nail art...

Review: Flocking powder
Hi ladies! I have an exciting review to share with you all today - I recently received some newly stocked products from Born Pretty Store and here are my thoughts on one of them. First up is the flocking powder in 'sky blue'. I decided to apply this over Eclipse #706 Bikini blue so I started off with two coats of the polish. Whilst the base polish was still wet, I sprinkled the...

A teal and glittery layering combo
Hello hello~ Short post today because I'm pooped! I layered two coats of The Face Shop BL801 over Australis Blackmail and was blown away by the pretty teal shimmer which appeared.
Yum yum ♥The Face Shop should start naming their polishes. It's so hard to remember what they're called without having to refer back to my nail polish spreadsheet.
Do unnamed nail polishes frustrate...

I have a friend's wedding coming up and am preparing potential notds to sport on the day - this is one I tried out a few weeks ago. I started with a base of Ulta3 Lily white and...
