Review - Born Pretty Store Water Decals

*Products provided in exchange for an honest review. Please see my disclosure policy for more info.* 
I've got another review to share with you all - these are some super easy to use water decals from The Born Pretty Store and I was pleasantly surprised by them!

I've never used water decals before this mani and I was kind of nervous I was going to completely mess the process up. To be frank, the instructions that come with these are terrible. I was confused and (like a dunce) didn't take the plastic off of the decal the first time I put it in the water. Don't be like me! Take the plastic off before putting it in the water or the decal with just adhere itself to the plastic. Yeah, I'm not always the sharpest tool in the shed ;) 

Review - Born Pretty Store Silver 3D Stickers

I've got another Born Pretty Store product to share with you all - this time it's a bunch of 3D stickers! 
To be completely honest, when I opened up my package from Born Pretty, I was shocked these were in there! They are completely outside of my normal style and I was surprised with myself that I had chosen to review these. Because of that, I was a little bit intimidated by how to use these.

Born Pretty Store Review - 3D Flower Decals

*Products provided in exchange for an honest review. Please see my disclosure policy for more info.* 

Tonight I have a review of some cute 3D flower decals from the Born Pretty Store! I really love nail art products from here because there are just so many fun, easy AND inexpensive products to choose from. It seems like they have new items up every time I look through their site (and they don't have just nail art supplies - I can get in trouble over there! ;) )

The nail art decals that I chose are super easy to use and really cute and pretty to wear. These decal easily peal off of the plastic film they come on and I'd say for the price, you get a TON of these things. There are 12 different styles ranging from roses, to daisies, to feathers and each style have variations therein. There are 25+ decals per style so overall, you get roughly 300 decals for a little under $5 (or cheaper with my 10% off code - SRL91!).

Clowning Around Birthday Nails!

Hi all! I'm not sure if you'll notice, but I've filed my nails down quite a bit. Tonight I realized that they were the longest they've ever been and I suddenly couldn't live with them anymore. I grabbed my glass file and got to working and then had the strong urge to give myself rounded nails for a change over my normal square shape. 

It feels SO different! I don't know whose hands these are! I think they are growing on me though and I'll live with them for a few days before deciding if I want to go back to my normal shape. I think they make my fingers look narrower? Who knows! 

Anyway, I was craving something fun and bright tonight and I recently adopted Clowning Around by Lush Lacquer and oh my word. It is so beyond fabulous. It has a ton of varying sized neon hex glitter in clear base so you can put it over anything your heart desires. There is absolutely no fishing with this polish ad it is packed full of the neon glitter. I paired this with Zoya's Jacqueline and I am just so in love! It's like a unicorn shook it's majestic mane over my fingers and this magic appeared on them. Or something.

Seven Deadly Sins - Day 3: Greed

Happy Friday evening/Saturday morning to you all! I'm still holding up in regards to the Seven Deadly Sins Challenge and this week's theme was greed. The challenge phrase is what you might expect for one filled with greed: 

Remember, more is more...don't hold yourself back! 

Well, this meant that I pulled every single nail art item I own out of my Helmer and plopped it onto my workspace looking for inspiration. And I struggled to find it! I hate when that happens. I ended up being drawn to a gold themed Essence nail art kit that had some diamond shaped glitter and got to hand placing entirely too much of it over Milani's Black Swift. 

However, once I had done just one finger I thought my brain and hands were going to call it quits. To add to my frustration, I didn't even like how it looked after all that! Grr. I refused to give up on them though so I grabbed my Born Pretty Studs and added a few of those.

Born Pretty Store Review - Stud Rhinestones

*Products provided in exchange for an honest review. Please see my disclosure policy for more info.* 

I'm excited to share my newest goodies with you all - I recently received some stud rhinestones from the Born Pretty Store to review!

Born Pretty sells a variety of products (I actually bought my cell phone case from them!), with one of their specialties being nail art. While browsing their site, I was immediately drawn to these edgy stud rhinestones. They aren't your typical  "rhinestone" per say, and I think that's what I liked about them. 

There are a lot of really fun options to choose from in this set, but I started out with some gold elliptical rhinestones and Orly's Fowl Play (which is stunning and these photos do not even do it justice). Very simple, but very chic. In the words of an awesome co-worker, very Cleopatra. Um, yes please!
