Bright Pinky Creamy Goodness

Jessies Girl cupcake Frosting, 2 Coats, no top coat, with flash.

Here we have another stunning nail polish from Jessie's Girl, this time it's Cupcake Frosting. Until a couple of months ago I would never have worn a bright pink like this, but as my polish obsession is just starting to take off, I'm beginning to be a little more adventurous. Actually, I've been pushing myself more and more out of my comfort zone and my collection is beginning to be much more varied and fun!

Let me start with the colour, she is a stunning medium bright pink with a cream finish. There are some blue undertones in there which makes her great for pale girls like me. I think I need some more bright pinks like her, what do you think?


As above without flash. 

The formula was a dream the same as the other Jessie's Girl polishes I've used, goes on smoothly, very forgiving and dries quickly. To get this lovely opaque finish I used two coats but no top coat, and look at that shine. You can even see the reflection of me taking the picture in them! I've actually got another couple of the Julie G collection to review for you as I was so pleased with the others, so expect to see those coming up soon.

I have been so busy these past two weeks with packing my house up and I've just not had the time to blog properly or indeed read other blogs. If you were wondering why I haven't been commenting on your blog posts when I usually do, you now know. Thank goodness it's all over now so normal blogging service should resume, and on my Mac Book Pro too. I must admit I am struggling a little to adjust to using a Mac again but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Well that's it from me for now, I hope you are well. Take care all, byeeeeee x :-)

      I actually haven't bought this brand in a while but i usually always pick them up from like my local drug store,maybe ordering straight from the website will be a better idea :)

      Thanks hun. I used to very so scared of brights & stuck pretty much to nudes, sheers & pastel pinks. Its only blogging that has got me in to them but I'm aol glad it has as I feel so confident with a bright mani. Its strange isn't it?

      The move was awful, but I've finally emailed you back & explained a bit about it. You won't believe what the landlady did! X :-)

I will be doing a nail challenge every week on a Tuesday. If you'd like to know more,  click here   to check out the post on Puja's blog, This weeks challenge was to do a french or reverse mani, so I got my stamping plates out! I decided to use one of my new freebie polishes as the base colour and I chose Ciate Bon Bon . She is a beautiful purpleish taupe and sooo pretty! I wont go too much in to detail about this polish now, as I have a review of her coming soon!  As above, no flash. For the stamping I used this absolutely gorgeous design from my Bundle Monster plate BM217 with Konad White. The design is actually flowers, but I think it gives a beautiful lacey effect, don't you? I have to admit, I found it a little difficult lining up the design on the right place on my n

My First Experience Of Stamping...

Image
I was really eager to get stamping away when my new plates arrived so I waited until my little girl Gracie was in bed and got all my nail things out. I have to say that I did think I was going to get it straight away and I got very frustrated that it wasn't coming out perfect straight away until some other people told me that you just need to practice a few times. I wasn't sure whether I should post the pics as it was a massive fail, but actually it's good for other newbie stampers such as myself to see what my experience has been like. So to start off with I had a little lap tray with all the equipment I needed and covered it with some kitchen roll as I'd heard this can get quite messy. Then I picked out a stamping plate, the one I chose was BM210. Next was to decide which polish I wanted to stamp with, well that wasn't too much of a choice as I wanted to use one of my new Konad Special Polishes and I only had them in black or white, so I chose white.
