Sponsored Post; bornprettystore


 This post is sponsored by born pretty


Just a quick sponsored review today on some gorgeous nail polishes that I was recently sent by bornprettystore. They also sent me some eyelashes and deco items but I will be leaving those for a later, separate post.

baby blue & orange

Once again I am loving pastel colours, and after seeing some gorgeous blue and orange shades coming out bornprettystore were kind enough to sponsor me these two; Candy Blue & Candy Orange

First off, they may look like shatter polishes because of the lid, but they're not - just normal polishes. So what do they look like on?

Like this!

PROS
+ Easy to apply
+ Bright, clean colours
+ Lasts a while without chipping
+ Plenty of polish in a decent sized bottle
+ Orange could also work as a nude, with fewer coats
CONS
- 2 coats are needed

Final thoughts?!
Ok, so that's not really a con but there really isn't anything bad to say about these polishes. I think they're lovely and even though my pastel phases come and go I can see myself keeping these as they're good staple colours to have.

Discuss: Gal influence in ASOS?!

ASOS featured an editorial with nail art by Sophy Robson in this months magazine. The most interesting design which I wanted to start a discussion about were these...


All-out Gaga and influenced by steam punk and Japanese Gyaru...」

It's definitely interesting to see gal mentioned in mainstream fashion editorials, and of course we all know that nail art is a big part of gal. Maybe she enjoys the 3d aspects of gal nails - check out the cute, diamante bow - or maybe it was the 'stiletto-point shape'?!

My question though is do YOU see the gal influence?
