Pinky pinkie - Nail stamping marble design – Bundle Monster BM-320

 

 

Hi girlies

Today’s post is of a manicure I have been wearing for a couple of days now.  I stamped it using my trusted Bundle Monster nail stamping plates, the plate number I used is BM-320.

I started off with 3 coats of one of my all-time favourite nail polishes at the moment, OPI Pink Friday from their Nicki Minaj range.

I then used 2-3 Barry M nail polish colours and randomly dabbed them onto the nail stamping plate to try and create the effect of water marbling.  I also dabbed some dots using a dotting tool with Barry M foil effects in gold.  Didn’t come out wonderfully convincing but I am happy with it all the same.

If anyone else has used this plate please please comment below with a link to your blog posts, I would love to see what different designs people have been able to create! And obviously let me know what you think of mine in the comments below too :0)

Until next time blogettes!

Aqua Marine Dolphin Nail Stamping with BM-320 Bundle Monster Plates

 

 

Hi girlies

Today I was just going to display and explain the stamping manicure I created at the weekend.  Well, I say “I created”, it was surprisingly my husband that picked the colours and the plate to use bless him!  He offered and I took him up on it somewhat dubiously and intrigued to see what he came up with, and I have to say I think he did pretty damn well!

I used Bundle Monster nail stamping plate BM-320, the dolphin and star nail stamping design.  The nail varnish / polish colours used were:

OPI Nail Envy Strength x1 coat

Barry M – Mint Green x2 coats for base

Barry M – Indigo for the stamp

Rimmel London – 500 Disco Ball x1 coat over the top ofthe design

I hope you like this design and if you have this set of Bundle Monster nail stamping plates then you should give it a whirl! If you have a blog post using this nail stamp feel free to comment below with a link to your post, I would love to read it.

 

Until next time blogettes!

HD Brows Palette – Perfect Brows

 

 

Hi girls

As some of you may be aware from my previous blog post on the wonders of the HD Brow world I am an avid user and feel they really do produce flawless results.

I have now invested in the HD Eye & Brow palette which consists of 4 shadow shades which I would like to review for you today.  It cost me £19.90 from the salon that I get my HD Brows done at. 

This palette comes in 3 different shade groups: Vamp; Bombshell and Foxy.  I was matched up by my HD Brow technician to the palette in the colour “Foxy”.

 

 

You use the top left shade in the HD Brow Palette as a highlighter to highlight your brow bone / line.  I use the black in the top right corner of the HD Brow Palette as a smokey eye liner.  I was then advised that for the colour of my eye brows I should use a dab of each of the two bottom colours mixed together on my brush to line and fill in my brows.

 

You get a cute little double ended brush which consists of a blending brush and an angled fine line brush to allow for precision when perfecting your brows.

 

These shadows do not only have to be used on your eye brows, you can also use them as eye shadows too.  I have been using the palette every day for about 3 months so far and haven’t really made a dent in it.  The initial cost is quite steep for 4 small shadows and I must admit I did put off getting it for a while but I truly am converted!

The only negative I would make is that I think for me the light highlighter shadow is useless and doesn’t show at all.  Other than that it gives my brows great definition in between my treatments and I couldn’t go out without wearing it now! How did I used to survive?!
