Pink Flower Stamping (Born Pretty Store Review)

*Press Sample*
Hello! Today I have a Born Pretty Store review to share. I was kindly offered my choice of items from the brand to try. Among the products I chose was a stamping plate, a stamper, and a stamping polish. I decided to use all three at once as they went so well together. Below is the mani I created. Read on to see how I did it, and find out what I thought of all three products!

Polish Con Chicago - VIP Grab Bag & Haul

Helloo! As promised, today I have my haul for Polish Con Chicago to show you. I had planned on taking pictures at the convention, but it was so busy and time got away from me (I was a little bit excited!). In short, it was amazing. All of the makers were absolutely lovely and it was so nice to meet everyone. The day was full of competitions, tutorials, food, and lots and lots of polish. Read on for a closer look at everything I brought home!

Tanya Burr 'Mischief Managed'

Helloo, I'm back! I should have some exciting posts and hauls soon! I am feeling ridiculously jetlagged, so today just have a quick swatch of Tanya Burr 'Mischief Managed' to show you. Shamefully, I got this over a year ago in June 2015's Nailbox (before I even started my blog). I have worn the other two polishes from the box though - I promise! Read on for my swatch and more info.

Barry M 'Beachy Keen - Redheadspaintitbetter (Guest Post)

*PR Sample, sent to me in exchange for an honest review, all opinions stated are my own*

Hi all

I am delighted to be guest posting for the lovely Becca while she is on holiday!

For those of you who don't know me, I run a little blog called Redheadspaintitbetter. My nails are pretty short and therefore the complete opposite of Becca's lovely long talons - I don't know how she keeps them so long and lovely!

Today I am showing you swatches of Barry M Beachy Keen. It is a limited edition polish, exclusive to Boots.

This lovely peach-toned caramel nude is perfectly opaque in two coats! My swatches show 2 coats plus topcoat.

Beachy Keen has amazing formula which glides onto the nail with total ease.

Rampart Nails (Guest Post)

Hi guys!

My name is Timea and I'm behind rampArtnails.

First of all a huge thank you to Becca, who welcomed me second time as a guest-blogger on her amazing blog! :)

As I'm writing this post I'm in Spain enjoying the the heat and the endless sunshine. This combination inspired me to do this nail design I will share with you today.

I thought once on holiday, I will give my nails a long due pampering session and also a new design (nearly every day)

Here are the ingredients for today's nails:
