Elegant Touch Polished Nude Review

Hello everyone!

It's been a long time since I posted anything on the blog but just recently I decided I should spend time getting back into blogging! 

So for my return I'm going to review a product that I recently received.

The product in question is Elegant Touchs Polished range of nails in nude 319. 

The packaging is simple and allows you to view the shade and length of the nails before purchasing.

Upon opening the box, you see all of the things that Elegant Touch include.

Within each box you get 24 nails in varying sizes, a mini nail file, the adhesive tabs and an instruction leaflet. The instructions are very easy to follow and the whole application process, from choosing the nails to finish took me around 15 minutes.

The good points about these nails are that they have uv technology so the nails don't scratch or chip and they're very shiny and pretty. The nails claim to last for 7 days, so I'll write a separate post in a week to let you all know how they hold up.

Overall, I'm very impressed with this product and will use these nails again in the future. They have a wide range of products and with how quick and easy the application process is I can't find one thing wrong with this product.

Have you tried any of the Elegant Touch range if nails? If so leave me a comment :)

Born Pretty Store Review Part 2

Hello everyone,

Today I have part 2 of my Born Pretty Store review for you all. Again I was supplied with the polish in this post for my honest review.

The polish I chose can be found here - Item ID 3864 http://www.bornprettystore.com/15ml-fluorescent-neon-luminous-nail-polish-varnish-glow-dark-p-3864.html 

Onto the pictures...

 For these nails I used three coats of OPI Play The Peonies as the base colour, as the polish I'm reviewing is very sheer. I'd defintly class it as a glow in the dark topcoat. it's also tinted pink so gave the base colour more warmth which I really like. It also dried to a semi-matte finish which I loved! You can add a topcoat to create a glossier look if you'd prefer :)

This polish again, has a number rather than a name. It would make life so much easier if it had a proper name but oh well :P I used three coats of this polish over Play The Peonies to create a nice pink colour. The polish applied really well and is a nice consistency to work with, the smell is rather weird though :P I then held my nails up to a light for about 30 seconds to "charge" the polish...

 This is the best picture I could could get of the polish glowing but it was much brighter in real life. I really love glow in the dark polishes and this one is no exception. There are many on the market so you can always find something that takes your fancy :)

Born Pretty Store Nail Polish Review Part 1

Hello everyone!

Today I have part one of a review of some Born pretty store products for you all. Before I start I must say that these products were provided to me by Born Pretty store for my honest opinion, and with that said on to the post! :)

The first product I chose to review can be found here - http://www.bornprettystore.com/gold-color-glitter-nail-polish-nail-p-1313.html

I chose this polish because I absolutely love all things glitter and it looks very beautiful and like a few indie polishes I've had my eye on recently, so here's some swatches...

Unfortunately this polish doesn't have a name, it is listed on Born Pretty Store as "Gold Color Glitter Nail Polish Nail Art -80" I wish it had a proper name as it really is beautiful. As you can see from the above picture this polish contains small gold glitters and larger turquoise, red/orange and gold glitters in a clear base.

For these swatches I layered one thick coat of the polish over one layer of Revlon Lunar, to show all the colours of the glitters. I'm really glad I chose to layer this polish over black, it reminds me of Christmas tree lights and I honestly really love it! The application of this polish was also good, it was a great consistency to work with and one coat applied plenty of the glitter to my nail. I didn't need to dab glitter anywhere it applied very smoothly and evenly.

 

I would reccomend this polish to anyone who loves glitter, it is absolutely gorgeous and can be layered over ,many different colours to create different effects, or built up to be worn on its own.I can't wait to wear this polish again, it's perfect for Christmas but I can also see this looking nice over brighter colours when summer rolls around again.

KKCenterHK Water Decal Review

Hello everyone :)

Today I have another review for KKCenterHK nail art water decals. This time when I was contacted by the company I choose some super cute water decals with cats on! Here's the link to them: http://www.kkcenterhk.com/p5209/N.NAIL-Water-Decals-Nail-Art-WDBLE927/product_info.html

I decided to use them with a complimentary colour that matched the decals...

 For these nails I used one coat of OPI Pink Flamenco as the base colour. This pink is super bright and such a beautiful colour for summer, and with it only taking one coat what's not to love about it? :P I then used one coat of OPI I Lily Love You over the top. This glitter/flakie polish was what started my polish obsession, it was my first OPI polish and I instantly fell in love :)

The water decals are so simple and easy to apply to the nail. The decals come in one sheet, the sheet contains twenty decals and they are priced at $2.82, which obviously is a great price. I cut out the decal I wanted to use from the sheet and removed the plastic from the top, I then run some water over the decal for a few seconds. This allows the decal to slide away from the backing and then I place it onto my nail in the required position and seal with topcoat. the whole process takes about thirty seconds. These decals are great to spice up a regular mani or just to use if you want something quick and easy.

KKCenterHK offer a wide variety of nail art products as well as fake eyelashes and other stuff, check out their website, it's amazing! Also, don't forget about the 10% off discount code if you order, just enter: charlottes-nails at the checkout :)
