Hello lovelies,

Hope you'll all well! Today I'd like to show you an experiment but it is also a review. Every time I went to a hobby/craft shop I've been checking out scrap booking stickers but never really purchased them because they seemed a bit big for nails. But I've always wanted to try them mind and had that nagging feeling somewhere in the back of my mind. So when I was approached by Born Pretty Store if I'd like to try and review their stickers, I was very pleased to say yes!

I have combined two ways of using the stickers - the first one is to stick the stickers on top of the painted nail and the second one sponging silver nail polish over the sticker and then removing it.

I have used Clinique Party Red as a base colour, A England Camelot for the sponged accent nail and Born Pretty Store Embossed Texture stickers.

Don't forget that you can use 10% off discount code LHJ61 for any purchase. 

At first glance this seems like a great idea. the stickers look pretty, they are small enough to go on the nail BUT they just don't adhere properly at the edges. I just couldn't make them stick and the ends kept peeling off. I've tried wet polish, nail glue, polishing over it, nothing has worked :( The stickers are too thick for curved nails and they don't keep the shape when bended. I guess I'll have to use them just for decorating photo album. I'm disappointed to say that I can't recommend this product for use on nails.

EDIT: Apparently the stickers work better with UV gel nails so if you're wearing those you might find these stickers will work or you.

Hello lovelies,

Today I'm going to look at Eye Candy London polish in Juicylicious. Eye Candy London is a sister brand to Invogue, currently very trendy UK brand selling feather, matte, concrete and other finishes.

Each polish comes in sealed packaging so you might be sure nobody has tested the polish before.

Juicylicious - bright neon orange creme with strong yellow undertones.This orange shade might not be suitable for all skin tones but it is a nice bright colour. I have applied two thick coats hoping they would be opaque enough but my nail line was still a bit visible. This polish would be best applied over white nail polish. The colour would be brighter and perfectly opaque.

The formula of the polish was good as it applied easy. The drying time was rather average which was probably due to the thick coats I've used. it also dries satin.

Satin finish without topcoat:

 Comparison of neon orange polishes, 2 coats each.

I've never tried Eye Candy London polishes before so I didn't know what exactly to expect. The formula was good but a little more pigmentation would be better.   

If you'd like to purchase Eye Candy nail polishes, they are currently available at Sainsbury's and Tesco and online at Amazon.
