Nail Water Decal Haul!

This is a sneak peak at my decal order from AliExpress that arrived last week, I ordered decals in lace, jigsaw, houndstooth, paisley patterns (to name but a few) in black and in white. I also got a whole load of  various theme ones.  I still need to photo/scan them and will share in another post soon.  They were just too adorable and the price so reasonable, I couldn't resist. Naughty, but so nice :

GOT Polish Challenge - Week 10 - Purple - Water Marble

Week 10 of the (Golden Oldie Thursday) GOT Polish challenge over at Crumpet's Nail Tarts. This week the theme is Purple.

I have had the two PIA nail polishes in my stash for over 2 years and the sinful color one for over 3 maybe 4 years.

With two of the polishes I decided to do a water marble.  I rushed into this and forgot to put a base of white underneath the water marble, hence the see through effect.  Although it looks ok I wish I had put on an undie!  Nevermind, it looks ok.
Items used:
OPI Nail Envy
PIA - Shade 05 and 22 (glitter)
Sinful Color - Tucana
Seche Vite

Born Pretty Store - White Nail Studs - Review

So here is one of three reviews I have for the Born Pretty Store.

This review is for a pack of 200Pcs 2.5mm Colorful Mini Square Patterned Studs - itemID: 12419. I chose the white studs 3865-2 for my selection. They retail at $2.22 USD or £1.33 and there is a choice of 12 colours.


I chose the white ones mainly so I could see if I could paint them with nail polish and I must say it was a little fiddly but the end result worked great.  
As you can see in this manicure I painted two of the studs with silver nail polish and  I must say the polish went on them pretty easily.  The studs were stuck down with a blob of clear polish and then a generous coat of Seche Vite on top.  I also used one of my many untried nail polishes - this particular one by Revlon I bought about two months ago from Fragrance Direct.  Isn't it pretty?  The nail art idea I got while browsing the Internet from ChitChatNails.
Items used:
OPI Nail Envy
Revlon - Minted
Sally Hansen - Lavender Cloud
Seche Vite top coat

You can get these here and you can use my discount code PBL91 which will get you 10% off. So what are you waiting for, go to Born Pretty Store for loads more nail art goodies.

GOT Polish Challenge - Week 9 - Skittle

Week 9 of the (Golden Oldie Thursday) GOT Polish challenge over at Crumpet's Nail Tarts. This week the theme is Skittle.

I was a little confused as to what a skittle manicure was. I have done skittlette manicures but this was a first I think.  There are a lot of variations out there.  I think I got it right, this is my interpretation.  It is a simple manicure using ten golden oldie nail polishes which have not been used in quite a while and are definitely over a year old. Some rhinestones to bling it up a bit also.
