Lacquer Lust - Diamond - April Birthstone

Hey guys,

So has anyone been watching or maybe even watched The new Daredevil series on Netflix? I've watched about half of it today, pretty brutal but also pretty dang good. I recommend it if you're into that sort of thing.

Today I have the Lacquer Lust birthstone holo for April to show you, I don't know if I will be able to get my hands on the May birthstone so this might be the last one until June. We'll have to see. I need there to be a restock at Harlow and co STAT.
This is a pretty (off) white holo. Nice application.
This was two coats.

Ciate - Ivory Queen

Hey guys,

So in an unreal twist of events my blog Facebook page for the blog has reached over 1000 likes. I honestly could have never guessed. It's so awesome.

Tonight I have a Ciate mini to show you guys. This is a peachy-nude polish with a really subtle shimmer I quite liked this one and in real life it almost gave me mannequin hands. Is that still a thing? Nice application.
This was three coats.

Julep - Ryan

Hey guys,

Yay for long weekends! I mean it would be better if I got Monday off too but beggars can't be choosers. Anyways I hope everyone has a happy easter! I flaked and didn't do any easter nails this year. Although I do have baby pink nails right now so maybe that makes up for it?

Today I have a pretty Julep satin polish to show you guys today. This one toes the line between a teal and a denim, and I really love this one. That being said I love polishes with different finished.
This was two coats.

Born Pretty Store Stamper Review

Hey guys,

So a few weeks ago I was approached by the Born Pretty Store to review some products. I chose three products and tonight I have the first one to show you tonight. 

So a while ago I saw someone talking about these "squishy" stampers and how they work so much better than your average stampers since they are much bigger and super squishy. So I figured that would be my first choice seeing as I SUCK at stamping. I also have very few stamping plates so sorry for the lame design. I need to get some full  nail stamping plates.

The stamper also comes with a scraper.

I personally think a old credit card works better so I probably won't use this that much

So at first I could NOT get it to pick up the design at all. AT ALL. I almost gave up and wrote it off as a dud. The stamper was super sticky but would not pick up the polish. So TO THE INTERNET. I looked into reviews of the stamper and noticed one that talked about priming the stamper. Apparently I needed to scuff it up with an emery board. BOOM. problem solved.

Then we were cooking with grease!

Once primed the stamper was picking up the designs almost perfectly. I didn't like the way a single design was looking on the nails so I stamped it on each nail a couple times.

I used Konad Special White to stamp and it's over top of Kinetics - Ice Smoothie.

The streaking has nothing to do with the stamper and everything to do with  my impatience.

This will definitely be my go-to stamper from now on.

Head over to the Born Pretty Store to get one of your own.

March Julep Maven Box

Hey guys

Today I have the March Julep Maven box to show you guys!
There were a lot of jellies and soft springy colours in this month's collection but I decided to go with this trio, along with their new invisible lip liner, Get In Line, which I HATED. It felt waxy and made my lipstick clump.
Anyways for polish swatches click for more after the jump

OPI - Don't Speak

Hey guys,

So every Christmas lately OPI seems to be coming out with a 18k gold topcoat of some sort. Last year it was Mariah Carey's Pure. This year it was Gwen Stefani Don't Speak.
OPI has previously put out a yellow gold topcoat in Man with the Golden Gun which I don't have, so I can't compare the two. However my NPBFF did swatch it on her blog so go check that out here
Every Christmas (okay for the last two) my NBFF Melissa and I always agree to buy them for each other, because this makes more sense than buying it for ourselves right?
From what I see this is a much more dense gold flake. With a base gold shimmer.

What do you guys think of this one compared to MWTGG?
This is one coat over black.

Julep - Liza - March Birthstone

Hey guys,

Today I have the newest of the Julep Birthstone collection to show you. So like I've said before. I thought this year was alternate birthstones like Onyx and Rose Quartz well apparently they are also doing "re-do's" of birthstones people weren't 100% happy with. I won't lie I like the finish on this Aquamarine polish way more than last year's. This one was way more shimmery and pretty.
This was one coat over Beautifully Disney's This Way, That Way.
