I received a lovely email today from sofeminine.co.uk saying that they thought Nail Juice was one of the best for nail art. I was and still am having an absolute crapper of a week, so it was really nice to see it.

Here is sofeminine.co.uk's list of best nail art blogs! I'm not keen on the whole 'who's the best' thing but it will be a great chance to check out some other blogs who are into nail art!

I don't post as much nail art as I used to. I should really get into it again. Alright, my nails are going to be fully blinged out for tomorrow! Here are a few of my favourites from over the years:







I hope you have a really nice day today :)

Review on Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate M76

Posted by Unknown

November 01, 2011

I'm starting off November with a review of a Born Pretty Store product! If you are not familiar with the Born Pretty Store, they manufacture and sale nail art supplies at really good prices WORLDWIDE.  I was surprised when they contacted me asking me to review a product for them. Of course, I agreed and choose to review the Born Pretty Store stamping plate m76 (because I am already familiar with Konad and Bundle Monster stamping plates). This plate retails for only $2.32.  

You can receive a 5% discount by using my discount code: IVJ61

Here is what the stamping plate looks like. 



To the left is a Konad stamping plate
Center is the Born Pretty Store stamping plate
To the right is a Bundle Monster stamping plate

As you can see, they are very similar in size. 



The Born Pretty Store stamping plate did not disappoint. As you can see, the image transfered very cleanly. I didn't even clean the plate until I stamped the same image five times. 

I did not choose a plate meant to cover my entire nail bed, so I can not say how the image sizes would be for covering an entire nail in one transfer. However, you can see I have longer nails, and the small image covers my nail twice in an appropriate size (see pointer, middle, and pinky). Someone with shorter nails could transfer a single image nicely. 

You can also tell on my ring finger that the single image almost covers my entire nail bed (which is nice).

Just look at how clean the stamping is with this plate. 



As you saw in the very first photo, I added some extra detail with a dotting tool. I used Kleancolor Black nail polish and Kleancolor white nail polish. The base polish is two coats of OPI DS Classic. 


Shop the Born Pretty Store for its product at its website
You can also shop at the Born Pretty Store on ebay


This is two coats of OPI DS Classic.

OPI Dating A Royal + Essence Make It Golden

Posted by Unknown


Hi everyone, how are you all? I hope everybody's had a great Halloween weekend. I really enjoyed all the Halloween manis I've come acrossed in the last couple of weeks, some were cute, some were scary and many were very funny :) I wish I could've shared some Halloween nail art with you myself, it's such a fun theme! But unfortunately the last few weeks have been the busiest so far this year. So no Halloween parties, but on top of that I also had to skip my birthday which was on the 30th. I'm 22 now! It's not that bad though, my party's just postponed ;) Anyhow, I'm rambling, let's talk nails! This is OPI Dating A Royal with a layer of Essence Make It Golden that I added the day after, and a coat of Essence Matt Topcat. Make It Golden is a glitter polish with tiny, tiny, golden microglitter and larger, multi-sized hexagons. I own quite a few golden glitter polishes but Make It Golden is actually something unique in my collection. The hexagons spread okay and the microglitters are pretty dense, but they don't completely cover the base color, which I'm pleased with. Another plus is the price, this golden beauty is only €1.29 for 0.16fl.oz/5ml. Not bad!
