I finally have it - Lemony Flutter!

It's something I've wanted to buy since I read it - Lemony Flutter from Lush. As I've told you in the last post, the boyfriend and I went to London. Not only I dragged him to Oxford Street to go to the Topshop that's located there, I also took him to Covent Garden, where you can find a Lush store. (Although I didn't knew this before I got there...)

First, let me tell you what Lemony Flutter is. It's a combination of all kinds of oils and bee wax, and basically just healthy, natural products. It hydrates your skin, especially cuticles (although you could use it anywhere). 

When I got in, I immediately started looking for Lemony Flutter. After a while I just asked a lady working there, and of course (and stupidly enough) it was right in front of us. She happily let my try a bit and yep - I just really, really liked it. So I bought it. :D

Here's the description. It's true: you don't have to use a lot. The tiniest amount can do quite a bit of hydrating :). It also smells of lemon a lot (but hey, look at the name!), but it's not really disturbing or anything. It's just a nice scent.

Oh, and look at this next picture! Every Lush product has a sticker on it that tells you who made it on which day! (And when it expires. That's because it's all natural...)

I reaaaaally love it and still use it daily. I'd recommend this to anyone (except if you don't like lemon, of course)! This is my first Lush product, by the way. Maybe, if I go to a Lush store again, I'll buy something else... We'll see. :)

Love,

Arti :D

Topshop's Nail Varnish Remover

As you might've read on my Twitter, I went to London a while ago, with the boyfriend! I dragged him to the TopShop at Oxford Street, and that's where I bought these nail varnish remover pads.

They're very thin pads, soaked in nail polish remover. The remover contains vitamin B5, and are supposed to quickly and easily remove all traces of nail varnish. 

Review | BornPrettyStore's striping tape

Hi there :D!

Recently I got my order from BornPrettyStore, and one of the items I bought was the striping tape. I got it in the package above, a simple plastic bag. 

Colourful print

Hi there! Yep, still alive... xD. Sorry 'bout that.

A few days ago I decided I wanted to do a panther mani. Here it is! I used Miss Minty by Gosh as a base colour. Then I added some pink, orange, and yellow-ish blobs on every nail. Just a quick swipe with a brush with black nail polish on it, and you're done!

First, I thought I'd finish it with a nice, glossy top coat. When I saw that, I just wanted it to be matte... so I applied my Essie's matte top coat over it, and here's the result! 

I did the same with my right hand, but I used different colours for the blobs.  

Unfortunately I had to file all my nails this short, because the nails on my middle finger and thumb were torn away by some walls and doors et cetera... :(. Anyway. They'll grow fast enough. :) 

I'm writing ahead right now, so you definitely can look forward to more posts :)!

Thanks for reading. Bye!

Review | Bornprettystore square studs & container

Hi there! Recently I bought some studs from BornPrettyStore, and here's my review.

You can see them on my nails in the picture above... They're silver, not too big (2 mm), and the back side is flat, which means you can place them on your nail quite easily.

They come in a little plastic bag, and while they're still in there, it might seem as if there aren't a lot of studs. I divided them in two separate containers, and here's half of them. Yep. Quite a lot.

And this is the size of the container (which I also bought at BornPrettyStore!):

I've also bought round ones (black and silver), but I haven't used them yet. You'll probably see them on my blog soon, though :).

They're only $5.73, and the shipping is free! How awesome is that. If you pay a little extra, you can track your package all the way to your country. When it's there, it takes just an average delivery time (which, in my case, is about two days). It might take a bit longer for your package to arrive, but in my case it had to go from Asia to the Netherlands. I didn't mind, because I didn't need them immediately.

When I opened the package, there was a little extra present! BornPrettyStore does that sometimes :p.  

You can find BornPrettyStore's website over here.

I'm going vintage.

I've always wanted to try those cute, vintage flower manicures. So I did. I used my BornPrettyStore brushes and slapped on some red and white polish, making flowers on my pink base colour.

I just pretty much tried it without actually following a tutorial, and I think it looks pretty decent, right? The white lines are made with my liner brush. :)

You can't see it very well, but if you look at my pinky finger, you'll see I added a matte top coat, to make the manicure look a bit softer.

I hope you liked it!

Bye!
