A-England Beauty Never Fails

Press Sample Purchased by Me

Morning friends!

Today I have some simple stamping to share with you. It's not often that I do something on all of my nails and love the final look, but this was one of those times!

I started off with A-England Beauty Never Fails which I won in a nail art contest back in December and am only just getting around to using. Terrible I know. This is a stunner. Beauty Never Fails is a blackened pine base that is just filled with gold, emerald, olive green and bronze ultra fine shimmer. I should have taken pictures of this on its own, but I didn't think in advance lol. I then stamped with PUEEN-14 and Essie Good As Gold. The print is just fabulous and I think I'll be using this stamp again soon!

I am usually an accent or skittled out nails kind of girl, but sometimes these simple looks really catch my eye. I think the base being as stunning as it is helps in that department for me.

What do you think of simple stamped looks? Would you rock these nails?!

Born Pretty Store Wax Pen

Press Sample Purchased by Me

Afternoon Friends!

Today I have a review of Born Pretty Store Wax Pen which can be found here for $1.99 for 2 pens!

To test the pens I used one to pick up those square silver studs, also from Born Pretty Store over two coats of A England St. George.

All you need to do is apply a coat of top coat and use the wax pen to pick up the stud and place it onto your nail. It took about 2 minutes to do one hand and I had an easy fun manicure!

I also created a short video showing me attaching the studs to my nails so you can get an idea just how easy it is!


I hope you are having a great afternoon! My nails are in horrible shape as I keep bumping them against my crutches they are breaking like mad. I'm not sure I can make them look nice at all. :( So I will probably still be posting sporadically over the next few weeks until my nails are in better shape as I'm sure none of you want to see barely there nails!

 

Studded V-Gaps

Morning! Today I've got some nails to show you that I am seriously ridiculously excited about. I think they have not been attempted before! As far as my google researching can tell. So without further adieu here are my Studded V-Gaps! 

Eeeeee aren't they fabulous?! I was dying over how much I loved them :) 


I started out with two coats of China Glaze Fast Track from the Colors of the Capitol Collection. This is a light taupe creme with a flakie gold shimmer running throughout. The gold flakies in this one are stunning. Next I took a striping brush and A-England Saint George and created my V-Gaps. I filled in the rest of the gaps with the polish brush. Then I added 1.5mm gold studs from Born Pretty Store. I am in love with everything about this! 

You can really see the holo goodness of Saint George in the picture with my thumb. In the sun this was UNREAL! The holo and the studs together was just so badass in my opinion. Unfortunately when I did this it decided to rain for almost the whole time. The only time it was sunny was when I was walking home from class and I thought I could race home and get my camera and snap a few pics, however by the time I got home it was cloudy and rainy again :( So you will have to take my word that this was incredibly amazing. 

I kept these on as long as I could, which was 3 days for me. A few of my friends who don't really pay that much attention to my nails were like Woah! and what do you have on today? I love it! 


These studs can be purchased from Born Pretty Store here and are just $5.86 for about 1000 studs. I'll probably never run out, unless I keep doing this mani over and over and over again :) If you want to buy them remember to use my 7% off code SA7X31! 


What do you think of my holo studded v-gaps? Are you swoooing as much as I am? Or is this not really your thing? 


Thank you so much for stopping by!!
