Dandelion Waterdecals, Review for Born Pretty Store


For today I have another review for a Born Pretty Store-product and that is 'Dandelion Waterdecals', productnumber #21777

You can get them HERE or you can go to the Born Pretty Store and search for #21777

To show you how beautiful these waterdecals are, I've made a design in which I also used BP-069 stampingplate, you can find that here, productnumber #20042.
The image that i used is the little girl blowing at the dandelions and for my other 3 fingers I used the waterdecals.

These decals are so easy to use: just cut the decals that you want from the sheet, put them in water for 10-20 seconds, slide the decals of the sheet and place them on your nail. Dab the excess water of and you are ready!
The decals are so superthin, that you can't see them lying on you nail and that is so important to me. And in that, these decals succeed!

For the background I used BPL-013, which you can find here and a lot of colors to make a multicolored gradient.





I really love these decals and the stampingplates I've used for this design.
The next photo's are close-ups so you can even see the images and decals better.






What do you think of these decals? Do you love them as much as I do??

If you want to buy them, go to  the website and search for productnumber #21777 and they are on sale now!
If the sale is over or you see other products (like the stampingplates: here and here) that you like, you can use my code LWGK31 to get 10% of your order.

Peacock Foil, Review for Born Pretty Store

Hi guys,

I have another review today and it is for the peacock foil from the Born Pretty Store.
You can go directly to it, via this link or search itemnumber #21775 on the website.

The foil comes in a plastic container and as you can see in the first photo, you can do a lot of nailart with one roll of the foil.




Because I didn't know what the best color nailpolish would be as the basecolor, I just painted my nails in 4 colors: blue, green, gold and silver and then added nailglue and when this was translucent and sticky, I applied the nailfoil.












This is the nailfoil over a darkblue base. 



 This is the nailfoil over silver nailpolish.










This is the nailfoil over green nailpolish.
This is the nailfoil over golden nailpolish.




















I decided I liked the nailfoil over the golden base best, so I painted my nails with a golden Catrice polish and applied the nailfoil on 3 nails. On my accentnail I stamped a Peacock from stampingplate BP-004, also from the BPS.



What do you think? Is Gold also your favorite color under the nailfoil, or would you have chosen another color?
Don't forget my use my code, LWGK31,  you get 10% of your purchase in the Born Pretty Store.
You can use your code for the nailfoil, itemnumber #21775 or for the thousands of other products.


See you next time!!

Silver Stampingpolish, Review for Born Pretty Store


Hi guys!

Sorry for the lack of blogs, but I was send some products by BornPrettyStore to review, so no better time then today to make a blogpost!

My first review is of this Silver Stampingpolish by BornPretty, itemnumber #22321




As you can see in this picture it is a very pigmented stampingpolish that shows up so good over black polish. I think it is everything you want from a silver stampingpolish!




In this macro you can see that it also stamped the thin legs really well.

There is a little point of criticism and that is that the polish is a bit coarse, so it is difficult to get small lines to stamp, because I got the idea that the polish can't go in the narrow lines of intricate images. 

I wanted 2 little spiders instead of 1 bigger spider, but I couldn't get it to stamp. So 1 big spider is is ;)





I also made a winter-themed design with a drymarble blue background over which I stamped snowflakes with the stampingpolish.

It is a bit hard to see, but the snowflakes were perfectly stamped and you could see them very well on the blue background.
To bad the I wasn't able to capture it on photo.




And then I also made a design with the stampingpolish, but I used it as a background for this alien-design. Because it is such a pigmented polish, I only need 1 coat for full coverage. It is a lovely shade of silver, very bright and shiny.


I am very positive about this stampingpolish! I would recommend it for stamping, but also as a one-coater nailpolish.

You can find the stampingpolish HERE or go to www.bornprettystore.com and search for item #22321.
*If you like this stampingpolish, you can get these plates and a whole lot more at Born Pretty Store and if you use my code, LWGK31,  you get 10% of your purchase*

Gradient-collection by Nailways, swatches


For today I have a swatch-blogpost with the gorgeous Gradient-collection by Nailways.





The supernice Denise from Nailways was so kind to send me the whole new Gradient-collection to swatch and review so you could see these gorgeous colors!
They ship worldwide, so take a look at the website.

There are 5 colors in this collection, from a bright pink to a dark purple. All the polishes were a dream to apply. 1 thicker coat would be enough, but I like 2 thin coats better. They dry fast and pretty glossy. 
I did apply a layer of Seche Vite on all the swatches, because I found the color came out better with the topcoat.

So lets take a look! 
I hope you like them as much as I do!





This is the first swatch: 21 Axial, the brightest of the collection.

A really nice bright pink in two thin coats with a layer of Seche Vite.





This is the second swatch: 22 Linear, the brightest pinkish-purple of the collection.
A really nice pink with a dash of purple, also in two thin coats with a layer of Seche Vite.






This is the third swatch: 23 Gamma, the darkest purple-pink of the collection.
A really nice purple with a hint of pink, leaning towards a burgundy and two thin coats with a layer of Seche Vite.






This is the forth swatch: 24 Radius, the purple of the collection in two thin coats with a layer of Seche Vite.






And last, but not least: 25 Diffuse, the darkest purple leaning to dark blue, of the collection. 
I had a bit off a hard time capturing the true color of this polish, because in some lights it almost looked black. But I think I did the color justice with this photo.
This is also two thin coats with a layer of Seche Vite.



What do you think?
You can get these polishes and so much more nailart-supplies, like stampingpolish and stampingplates, just take a look at the website:
 


The polishes are also great for stamping, so if you follow me on Instagram you can see my designs with them and with the stampingplates from Nailways.

Mini Colorful Glitters, Review for Born Pretty Store




This is my review of the Mini Colorful Glitters that was sent to me by Born Pretty Store and has itemnumber #20476

These Glitters are mini indeed and really cute in a whole lot of colors and they sparkle!
As you can see in the photo's, the glitters light up like a discoball, depending how the light reaches your nails.











The Mini Colorful Glitters are available in 2 sizes package, 3 and 10 gram. 
I was sent the 3 gram-size and there are a lot of glitters in there. I have to make a lot of designs to do trough the 3 gram-box.







You can add these glitters in multiple ways: as an accentnail, like I did in the design above, but they can also give some sparkle at other designs.






Like I did here when I tried to make a simple stamped bird, into a Bird of Paradise by just adding some of the Mini Colorful Glitters of his chest and tail.


I really recommend these Mini Colorful Glitters if you want to add some sparkles to your nailart-designs!

You can get these Mini Colorful Glitters, and a whole lot more, at Born Pretty Store, itemnumber #20476

If you use my code LWGK31, you can get a 10% discount on all items, so also on these Mini Glitters!





What do you think: will you buy and use these Mini ColorfulGlitters to sparkle up your nailart-designs?

Stampingplate Y015, review for Born Pretty Store





This is my review of stampingplate Y015 that was kindly send to me by the Born Pretty Store and is item #20721

I can tell you right away that I love this plate and am really pleased with how the images stamped!
As you can see on the image below, the image transferred with no problems!

The thing that is a pity, but that is because I have really small and rounded nails: I could not get the whole image on my nails. 
It is a big image, but if you have wider nails, then you'll be having no problems with fitting the image of the dragon on your nails!






I stamped my dragon over a golden and green nailfoil-base and as you can see it transferred beautifully to my nail.
To make the image stand out a bit more, I decided to fill in the eye with white and a black dot and that was a great addition.







The plate also has really nice flowers that I also stamped over nailfoil, pink this time. (the pink bled trough the white stampingpolish, even though i added a layer of clear nailpolish.)
I am really impressed about the quality of the plate! 
Look at my accentnail: this is a full nail stamp that is flawless!






I really recommend this plate if you want a big image that can go over all your nails and still looks stunning!
You can get this plate, and a whole lot more, at Born Pretty Store, itemnumber #20721
If you use my code LWGK31, you can get a 10% discount on all items, so also this stampingplate.





What do you think? Will you buy this plate?

Stamped Dragon over a Gold and Green Foil base - Pictorial




For today I have another Pictorial for a product send to me by Born Pretty Store to review.
I will post my review tomorrow, so first I can show you how to achieve this Fierce Dragon design.






I first painted a white basecoat with 'Snow Me White' by Sinful Color over which I painted 2 layers of  'Bring it Sheer', a gorgeous pastel green with iridescent glitters.






Then i waited until the basecolor was completely dry, with some help of a fast drying topcoat. When the topcoat was completely dry, I applied the nailfoil-glue. Not over my whole nail, but only on certain parts of my nail. It is too bad you can not see it clearly in the above photo.







When the nailfoil-glue was tacky and changed from white to translucent, I first applied the green nailfoil to my nail. 
With only touching my nail ever so lightly, I added the green. Not to much, because it is a really striking color. 
After the green, I added the gold over the rest of the glue that was not covered with the green foil.
When the foil was how I liked it, I applied another layer of fastdrying topcoat.






Then it was time for my favorite part: the stamping!
I used black stampingpolish by Dashica and my squishy stampinghead.
Look at how gorgeous the image of the dragon stamps! 
It is just stunning!






Look at how gorgeous this Dragon is, stamped over the gold and green nailfoil! To let it stand out more, I painted the eye white with a black dot for it's iris. But that is all this stamp needs!






And this is how the whole Dragon looks like, stamped on my 4 nails.
It was a bit of puzzling how to place the parts of the Dragon so it looked like a whole, but I think I did a good job ;)


This design is done with stampingplate Y015 from the Born Pretty Store, itemnumber #20721
If you use my code LWGK31, you can get a 10% discount on all items, so also this stampingplate.

I hope you like my Pictorial!
