Zoya Naturel Satins

*Press Release*

Hello!  I'm a little behind with posting some reviews so my focus this week is getting caught up.  I'm starting off with the Zoya Naturel Satins collection.  This is a transitional collection.  It's perfect for heading into spring, although here in the desert I feel like we are skipping over spring and headed right into summer.  The Satins are just that.  Satin finish polishes in nice neutral colors.  I used no base coat and two coats of polish for all the colors.  These were a bit tricky to work with at first but once I figured out what I was doing it was a lot easier.

Alright, there you have it.  What do you think?  Are you a neutral lover or are they not your thing?  I'm not big into neutrals but I love having some good quality ones for the times they are needed.  You can find these on zoya.com and be sure to give Zoya a like on facebook.

Until next time...

Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate Review

*Press Sample*

Hey all!  I have a Born Pretty Store stamping plate to show you today.  I used three different stamps from plate L006.  I love houndstooth so I was so excited to try this out.  I used the two larger patterns on the middle and ring finger then a plaid looking design with little tiny houndstooth on it.  Along with it being my first time using this plate it was also my first time using my new stamper.  It's super squishy and is going to take some getting used to.  You can see that for the most part I picked up the full images.  Unless you got right up close to my nails (like I'm showing you all) it really wasn't noticeable.



All in all I would recommend this plate.  Especially to someone who is a better stamper than me.  I need to get in some more practice with my new stamper.  You can find the plate here and everything else that Born Pretty Store has to offer here.  Don't forget code FEMJ61 will save you 10% on regular priced purchases.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer Crooked Hearts Collection Review (Partial)

*Press Sample*

Hey everyone!  Super excited to share today's post with you.  I have three gorgeous polishes from the Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer upcoming Crooked Hearts collection.  I'm going to start of with my favorite of the three, Cold Inside Me.  I'm going to use Julie's color descriptions because I really stink at describing colors.  Cold Inside Me is a medium teal with blue to teal to purple shifting glass flecks.  Glass fleck is my favorite polish finish and teal is my favorite polish color.  This was pure win for me!  I do believe I have a new favorite polish.  I want to wear this over and over.  The formula is outstanding.  It was easy to control and perfect in two coats.

Next up is Believin' Won't Fly a dark navy blue with icy blue flash.  I used two coats for my photos today but this was pretty perfect in one.  My husbands work is having a fancy party this weekend and I'm wearing a red dress.  I'm thinking of wearing this polish to go with it.

Lastly I have Together Dead and Lonely a black jelly with silver and red holo microglitters.  Let me start by saying my photos don't do this polish justice at all.  The holo glitters sparkle like crazy in the sun.  This is just two coats.  I think that's pretty amazing for a jelly polish.  It was very even and easy to use.

Hey all!  Happy Monday to you.  Quickie post for you today.  When I decided to wear Hit Polish Nail Lacquer Unicorn Tears I couldn't decide if I wanted it over black or purple.  So I picked both.  I used my go to black cream, Finger Paints Black Expressionism and the purple is Sation Super Natural Powers.  I used one coat of Unicorn Tears on all nails and topped them with a quick dry top coat.  Easy peasy!
