Colourful fields

I received this product of my own choosing, free of charge for my honest, non-bias review from the Born Pretty Store.

I have been organizing my collection and swatching them out on swatching sticks, while all of this was happening my nail room was filled with polishes over all surfaces. Organized into brands, in somewhat alphabetical order (more on this in a later post).

So when I received my review box from BornPrettyStore, I was inspired to use as many polishes I could within one brand, and therefor not mess up my entire system while doing so.

That is how this accent design was born.

For this manicure I used Qgirl-032 from BornPrettyStore, Barry M - Gelly - Paprika as base colour. I stamped using WetnWild - Black Creme, and filled in my accent using; Barry M - Superdrug Limited Edition Yellow, Barry M - Vintage Violet, Barry M - Gelly - Mustard, Barry M - Gelly - Mango, Barry M - Gelly - Chilli, Barry M - Gelly - Dragon, Barry M - Beery I/C, Barry M - Fuschia, Barry M - Gelly - Blueberry, Barry M - Gelly - Blue Grape and Barry M - Gelly - Plum.

Phuu, that is a long list.

I bet you are all super excited to see the end result now?

Barry M - Gelly - Paprika with Qgirl - 032 (from BornPrettyStore) stamped over in Barry M - Superdrug Limited Edition Yellow, Barry M - Vintage Violet, Barry M - Gelly - Mustard, Barry M - Gelly - Mango, Barry M - Gelly - Chilli, Barry M - Gelly - Dragon, Barry M - Beery I/C, Barry M - Fuschia, Barry M - Gelly - Blueberry, Barry M - Gelly - Blue Grape and Barry M - Gelly - Plum. 

I really like this plate and it has a lot of versatility to it, with some Aztec looking design as well as some Chinese looking ones. If you want to get your hands on the Bird Animal Pattern Nail Art Stamp Template Image Plate Pattern #Qgirl-032 it is found at BornPrettyStore and it's sold for $ 2.99.
BornPrettyStore also offers free shipping worldwide, and if you use my code (RAMG10) you get 10% off your order.

I am very pleased with the end result of this look, and it took quite some time to fill in all the lines. Stay tuned for the second manicure I did using this plate, coming up later this week/weekend.

Hibiscus Flowers

This tri-polish challenge popped up on my screen here the other day, and I felt like doing something similar  so here is my take on the tri-polish challenge. 

For this manicure I used

Barry M - Berry I/C

Kiko - 331

Max Factor - Lilac Lace 

I stamped using Bundlemonster plate - BM 318

I really like how this turned out, the wallpaper background and the colours just goes so well together. Delicate, lady-like.

Retro 80s Mani

I started a twin-challenge with my nailpolish / WoW friend Mishka from Lacquer or Leave Her! .
We decided to call it " Cheeky Girls Challenge", and we are doing one by one plate from the Cheeky set we just got. One image from each plate, one plate per week.

So the first image we are going to to is the Cassette from CH 30. I remember being a young girl having fun, dragging the "tape" out, and taking a pen, and swirl them back in.

My cam stopped working, so I had to borrow another cam, and I had HUGE problems with the lighting. Its been raining for a few days, and its just not working..

So here is what I did. 

I drew lines on my nails, and started filling in with colors. I used mostly my new polishes for this, only "old" polish I used was the blue. Its a decent cobolt blue, but I hate the smell of it, I just cant say that enough..

YSL - Bleu Majorelle
Miss Sporty - 452
Claire`s - 152
Barry M - Berry I/C
ESSIE- Mojito Madness

Stamped with WnW Black Creme


To see what Mishka did, head over here, it looks nothing like my " Crayon-puke Cassette -mani (LoL)
