Essence Floral Grunge - Grunge Me Tender

Hey there!

Today I have the second polish I bought from the Floral Grunge Trend Edition... It is a mint colored polish called Grunge Me Tender. It has a suede effect as it says on the bottle, which I interperet as "semi-matte"... It has that hidden shimmer as its sister but it is more visible...



You may see some streaks although I applied 2 coats really carefully, but it looks like it needs a third coat...



I decided to turn this one into a fun mani. The color reminded me of mint icecream, so I added a little choclate topping (lol) with Essence Wanna Say Hello and Winstonia W108 plate... I used half of the image to create a dripping effect... And then I added some sprinkles with red and yellow polish... Yummy!!! :)

Rimmel Coctail Colour - Baby Bellini

Today I have the second one from the Rimmel Coctail Colour Collection... It is the purple one called Baby Bellini... :)


Baby Bellini is a purple glass flecked polish with pink and silver particles.. It is really lovely and shiny... Two coats seemed enough but now looking at the pictures, I wish I had used a third coat...






You want the truth? I'm not "that" in love with these polishes, and I think I won't be using them again...

Rimmel Coctail Colour - Apple Berry Smoothie

Rimmel has a new collection called Coctail Colour... It has 5 colors, blue, purple, orange, green and pink... I picked two of them, blue and purple...

Today I'm wearing the blue one... :)

It is called Apple Berry Smoothie... It is a lovely blue shade with glassflecks... I know glassflecks are so last year, but I liked this one... :) I have 2 coats on. Applied without problems and dried in a short time...

What do you think?

Born Pretty Store - Hexagon Glitters

I received the hexagonal glitters from Born Pretty Store recently...

You should be familiar with the trend, decorating your nails with glitters... That's what these babies are for....

They have 12 pots in 12 different colors... The silver and the gold are solid colors, but the rest are clear, see through glitters.

The post may seem little, but they hold plenty of glitters, enough for a life time!!!! :) The whole set costs $6.93...

I only wish they were a little bigger in size... It takes a long time to place them on my nails... :(



Anyway, here's what I did with them...


I used the pink one first. I painted my nails with two coats of Avon Paprika Pumps... Then while the paint was wet, I started adding the glitter using a small sized dotting tool. It really took some time to decorate one nail, so I stopped at the first nail... God give patience to the one who covers all the nails... LOL








The second color I used was the gold one.... I painted my nails with two coats of Jalepeno Fashion Show and added the glitters as before.... Now, looking at the pictures, I realize that I should have placed them a little closer... But, hey, it was my first time.... :)





Last but not least, here's my favorite nail art with the silver one... I painted my pinky with Barry M silver and stamped it with NailzCraze NC04. For my ring finger, I used two coats of Sally Hansen Black Out and placed the glitter around it... The middle finger is just black... And the index finger is Golden Rose Jolly Jewels 118, two coats...







 Overall, I loved these glitters. The possibilites are endless... And if you want to buy some for yourself, you can buy it here with using my 10% off coupon... Remember, Born Pretty Store ships free, worldwide!!!
