Winterberry Complete Nail Art Kit

Hey everyone! 🙂 I have a super lovely product to show you today 🙂 a few weeks ago the lovely Rachel of Winterberry Nail Art sent me a Complete Nail Art Kit to review. This was the cutest nail mail I think I’ve ever received. I love the concept, the handmade element and the  price – everything is good quality and I can’t fault it 🙂 I tried to make this review as comprehensive as possible. I hope you enjoy! 🙂

Nailtopia Real Butterflies and Flowers Nail Art Stickers

Hey everyone 🙂 today I have some awesome nail stickers to show you which I was kindly sent to review from Nailtopia. I’ve seen Nailtopia a few times in Sally’s and occasionally bought some nail art supplies but I never realised you could buy them straight from their website. I adore nail stickers and today I have some really pretty ones to show you.  Sometimes I buy them and feel like I can’t ever use them because they are too pretty so having to review them is a good way to get me to branch out! I enjoy these because they are so easy to use, and like the packets claims, it is ‘instant nail art’. These are called ‘Real Photo Art Nail Stickers’, meaning that the highly detailed designs are more realistic.

Scofflaw Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

Hey lovelies, today I have a new indie to my collection which will sit pride of place (does anyone else find that once you are indie-addicted all the mainstream polishes are suddenly oh-so-boring? lol). This one is perfect in colour, perfect in opacity, perfect in application, everything. I can’t recommend it enough! I really didn’t want to take this polish off when it eventually chipped.

In the UK you can buy  Scofflaw Whiskey Tango Foxtrot from Llarowe.com, and if you live in the US you can buy it from the Scofflaw Etsy shop, as well as Shoppe Eclecticco in Singapore and Femme Fatale in Australia. These are all subject to stock availability so the best place to get info on Scofflaw is direct from the Scofflaw Facebook page.

Elegant Touch Rainbow Leopard Press On Nails

Hey everyone! Today I have some really exciting falsies to show you… these got a lot of attention from my colleagues at work and given that they were predominantly male that day that’s saying something! Even the customers complimented me on my nails several times!

Elegant Touch have released some super new products this spring (don’t tell me it’s already summer… eek! Where does the time go!). The product I am reviewing today is the UV Gel Technology Press On Nails, which include animal print, textures, metallics and pastels. The idea behind the UV Gel Technology is that they are chip-resistant, long-lasting and durable. I can’t say much for the long-lasting claim as I only wore these for 2 days but they are certainly durable and I don’t even know how you can chip a falsie… but basically mine didn’t chip despite the (quite heavy) wear-and-tear they were subjected to on a busy day at work. They stayed perfect the whole time I wore them!

Barry M Blue Grape Gelly

Hey everyone, sorry I’ve been a bit quiet on here for a little while, work is just so busy and somehow I have no time for anything other than eating sleeping and recovering from all the loooong shifts! I really need to get the work/life balance back in check. Currently my Andy is in A+E with chest pains and I can’t get there and I’m super worried so I’m writing this blog post to keep myself busy with something  l love.

Very soon Barry M will be releasing all 5 of their new Gelly Nail Paints – Blue Grape, Guava, Mango, Key Lime and Passion Fruit – on June 5th in Superdrug, and June 12th in Boots. When the first images of Blue Grape came out I think everyone had it billed for a Nails Inc Baker Street dupe –  I don’t have Baker Street myself but from online swatches I think it’s a tad darker but every bit as bright and gorgeous, and obviously around a 3rd of the price at just £3.99. It’s beautiful, honestly one of my favourite blues ever and I’ve worn this about 3 times already which is saying quite a lot!!
