Beauty Big Bang

Purple Nails

Things are pretty poop here atm, I was hoping 2019 to be a better year, how wrong could I be!
Least I have my reviews and painting my nails to help me relax somewhat.
Today for my latest Beauty Big Bang review, I have a purple Stamping Polish item number
SKU: J6415TM-12A.
Although it's a highly pigmented polish for stamping, you can also wear it as a base colour, 2 thin coats and a glossy topcoat and it's such a pretty purple, it reminds me of Palma violets sweets we get here in the UK!
I had to add some white delicate stamping using plate BBBXL-003.
Then I painted a pink base also from Beauty Big Bang, then stamped the floral design from the same plate with the purple polish.
You can see how well it also stamps. The
Beauty Big Bang polishes are such high quality and super pigmented, a must for anyone.

The Edge Nails

Smooshy Nails

There are so many different ways of getting polish on your nails apart from just painting them. I mean ombre or gradient using a sponge, water marbling and decals. This isn't the first smooshy look I've done, but I haven't really tried this technique alot, so find it a bit hit and miss on how the final result will look.
But wanted to try again with the Annika polishes from The Edge Nails.
Gold Sparkle, Deep Velvet, Black Swan, White Swan and Glass Slipper. I dotted drops of each colour on my stamping mat, squished together with my clear stamper and stamped over my nails then added a coat of Glass Slipper for a touch of extra sparkle.
The colours work so well together and I really like how this looks. These Annika polishes are highly pigmented and perfect for this technique.

She Modern

Nails for Spring

Continuing with the amazing quality foil water decals from She Modern, I'm here today with a perfect look for Spring, especially with how lovely the weather has been here just lately.
I've used 2 lots of decals, one is plain black, the other is the new 2 colour foil decals in black and light pink.
Flower Branch and Branch work perfectly together and are both so detailed, I also love how you get different sizes of each design. I cut as close as possible around each decal.
Over a pretty sky blue base I applied these decals and protected with a water based top coat to protect the foil finish.

The light pink flowers really pop against the black branches and look super pretty, and just perfect for Spring.
These foil decals are just fabulous and I really recommend them to all who love water decals as much as I do.

Charlies Nail Art

Oval Gem Nails

Well that's another school holiday over, and my final review of the week. I'm looking forward to the weekend.
So for Charlies Nail Art today I have these AB oval flat back Gems.
You get 10 gems that measure 4mm x 6mm, with a flat back and AB finish for 89p.
To apply these gems I used regular top coat, over a pink shimmer base. I also added some silver micro beads around each gem. The finished look is so pretty and bling, which is so me atm.

They laid flat to my nails and look super with the pink polish, and would look awesome over any base colour.

She Modern

Foil Water Decals 

The weather has become so mild and due to be unseasonaly warm, which I really don't mind at all, this also brings me nicely into showing you these foil water decals from She Modern.
They are perfect for both Spring and Summer, called Mixed Arts 15, in Silver holo but available in 17 different foil colours and finishes.
A mix of grass blades, ladybirds and flowers, with open parts perfect to colour in. I started with a blue to green gradient, and added the blades of grass. For the flowers and ladybirds I placed on a clear stamper and coloured in, them applied the decals to my nails using foil glue. Top coated with a water based top coat to protect the foil.


These decals apply just like normal decals, you just need to protect the foil with a water based polish. In a fabulous range of designs, and the newer 2 colour ones there is definitely something for everyone. The one thing I'd like to try is using pigments with these decals. I may try this soon!

Beauty Big Bang

Easter Stamping 

Hello! I had a nice day yesterday and received some nice gifts, no polish, but a nail dust fan, which I'll share very soon, but for now back to my Beauty Big Bang review. I'm sure time goes so quickly now as we start doing nails for different occasions.
BBBXL-058 is a fun Easter theme plate with cute chicks and rabbits as well as yummy chocolate eggs. I was only able to create 2 looks, the first taking a while as I used 4 different images and made reversed stamped decals.
Stamped with Beauty Big Bang black, this plate is etched well and so detailed.
For my final look, a more simple mani, but still very pretty.
Over a nude brown base I stamped with Brown SKU: J6415TM-4A, that is super pretty and very pigmented just like all the other stamping polishes from Beauty Big Bang.

Rosalind

Stamping Gel 

It's my birthday! I will be doing some bling birthday nails later today, as I'm writing this post at 5 in the morning, blasted cats woke me up!
So today I have a new to me brand who kindly sent me a whole bunch of stuff to review, so thank you to Rosalind.
If you've been following me for a while you'll know I don't do gel, and haven't for a few years now. But I've always been curious about trying gel again. So with this in mind, what harm would a stamped image in gel do. 
I have 2 5ml pots of stamping gel in white and blue, I also used a stamping plate and clear stamper from Rosalind. 
You see in my video, that I had a few problems at first. Stamping with gel is completely different than stamping with regular polish. The white gel is super pigmented and the stamper picked up nicely.

I tried the blue on tips, and found the best way to stamp with gel. Instead of rolling the stamper to pick the image off the plate and then roll over your nails, stamp straight down to pick the image up, and straight down to transfer to your nails.
These gels are UV/LED soak off and I cured for 60 seconds with my cute pink LED pen. I had no issues, and protected my skin with liquid latex while stamping.
You can also find Rosalind over on Facebook,
Instagram and Twitter.
I'm off to make a cuppa now.
Stay safe and much love...

Rhombus Nail Glitter

So it's almost the weekend and getting closer to my birthday! Well on Monday lol, but hey why not have a lazy pre-birthday weekend...I wish!
For Charlies Nail Art today I have a bag of 
Rhombus Nail Glitter in Royal Blue. It also comes in 14 colours for 79p.
For my nails, I used a baby blue polish and applied the glitters with a clear base polish. A full covered accent nail and lines on my other nails. The glitters laid flat, and I top coated to protect them, which made didn't ruin the finish, just made it more glossy.

The spiral hearts I have are in Silver holo and purple, the lines are a beautiful pink foil.

Born Pretty Store

Bling Nails

Welcome back to my tiny part of the world wide web! Today I have created two very different looking bling nails. One that's very dainty and the other full bling overload, and a look I've wanted to try for ages.
I used these stunning Rhinestones from Born Pretty Store.
You get 3 all sorted colours, silver, rose gold and an off white. They have a flat back and are all one size of 2mm with a stunning AB cut, so the glisten and shine. Item number 42634.
So onto my spring time look. Stamped flowers in pink and white over the opposite colour base, and added rhinestones to the middle of each flower.
This adds an extra dimension to this mani.  Next up I used my Silver holo polish, and added the silver rhinestones to each nail apart from my ring finger. I completely blinged this nail! The effect was awesome in person, I would have liked to have filled all my nails this way, but used I whole segment just on this nail!
In the sun it was absolutely amazeballs!!
I applied the rhinestones with a water based top coat, and happy to say they didn't loose their shine or go dull.
If you like bling nails, I would definitely recommend this wheel. Use my discount code BABX31 over on the Born Pretty Store website,
and take a look at their FacebookInstagram
