Glitzy Turquoise Stone Nails.

During my hiatus I saw a lot of water spotted nails and knew I needed to try it, but I wasn't doing much nail art, so I've just recently gotten around to giving it a shot! I knew I wanted to create a turquoise stone design with water spotting and I loved how it turned out. 

I read a few different techniques for water spotting; some people used hand sanitizer, some hairspray, others perfume. When I first attempted it I started with hairspray but didn't have a ton of luck. I ended up switching to using body spray to create the veining for the stones, and from there everything worked out without any issues.

The turquoise color I used was BK Candy 06, the black was Wet n Wild Black Creme, and the gold is Orly Rage.

As I said I was very happy with the results, and I was very pleased to find water spotting is easy to do. I already have plenty of ideas for other manicures using this technique!

Born Pretty BK Candy Color Polish Review.

I received a few products to review from BornPrettyStore.com just after Christmas, and the first one I'm going to be reviewing is a fluorescent nail polish from the brand BK.

I've reviewed a bunch of different nail art related products from BPS before, but this was my first time trying out one of the polishes they sell. 

This is a very pretty color, I applied four thin coats for it to be opaque.

When I received this polish in the mail I had already forgotten that it was supposed to glow in the dark, so when I randomly chose to wear it for New Year's Eve, it was a fun surprise! Despite my best efforts I couldn't get a good photo of the polish in action, glowing in the dark. But I was pleasantly surprised with how bright and cool it looks.

And the polish still looks great in the light. I think it'll be perfect for the summer.

The color I have is 06, and each of the BK polishes sells for $2.99. You can get 10% off anything from BPS using the coupon code BRJ61.
