Allo polish Pals!
How are you today? I hope you've had a
good week; Are you doing anything fun this weekend? I'm feeling quite
peachy and I'm looking forward to going to the big mall tomorrow with
Mr Bravo. Strange thing is, I am looking forward to the long walk
there. Nearly every day this week I've been going on walks (and
working out) to get fit but not knowing my way around here too well
means doing the same route over and over (with some slight
exploration)... Tomorrow I'll get to see somewhere else for a change,
haha. I have some more beauties to show you today from TheBorn Pretty Store. Again, I am simply in love with these gems! These
are 2mm- 5mm Delicate heart circle 3D Rhinestones.

So you may notice these are slightly
similar to the wheel I showed you earlier this week, with the
exception that these are all darker rainbow gems. These gems are also
made from acrylic resin.They come in a wheel containing 200 pieces
and come in heart, circle and tear shapes. They are absolutely
mesmerising to wear, literally catching colour and changing in every
light and from every angle I move my hand. I can guarantee you will
not be able to take your eyes off of your nails if you wear these. I
decided to use only the circles today to create a chandelier sort of
effect. I sealed them with OPI's top coat and they are held firmly in
place.
For this manicure: I
decided to go with a light base to hopefully let all those beautiful
colours on the gems jump out and speak for themselves. I started with
two coats of Picture Polish 'Wisteria' and created a gradient by
adding HD Nails '#3' (The Blue). I topped that off by applying two
coats of Sinful Color's 'Hottie' which is a beautiful subtle glitter.
Finally I created some lines with black acrylic and added the gems on
top, adding a little of Color Club's 'Harp On It' with my smallest
dotting tool.
What do you think of this
manicure? Which of the Born Pretty gems I've shown do you prefer, the
lighter or dark ones?
Have a magical, glittery weekend!
Love
Ithi
