Subtle Stamping NOTD

Lately I've had the urge to do some nail stamping. Something I haven't tried before was stamping on a glitter polish. 

 I didn't want to go too crazy on the glitter (is that possible anyway? lol) So chose to use Revlon as my base colour. I then stamped a design using Maybelline Color Show and . I painted both colours, hoping to cause a gradient effect within the stamp design.

 Well, the lighter purple was not noticeable, so it looked like I'd stamped a small amount on the end of my nails. Oh well, not as I'd envisioned, but here's the end result.

It's not terrible, just not much reward for the effort, lol. It's something I will try again, but using more vibrant colour.

    What you've done is super pretty Indie. When I first saw it I thought immediately of water. It has that lovely water like effect to it. And the purple is gorgeous too :D

    Maybe not quite what you had in mind Indie, but I love it, it's ever so pretty - the delicate swirls are so feminine and the colours complement each other beautifully ♥

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design.
