Stamping plate Floral BP-X44 - White flowers on dark blue

Today I'm showing you a beautiful stamping plate that I got from Born Pretty Store for this review.
It is one of newer series stamping plates, it's the stamping plate Floral BP-X44. You can find it on Born Pretty Store website with this name: BORN PRETTY Square Nail Art Stamp Template Floral Rose Gorgeous Flower Image Plate 6*6cm BP-X44, item ID: 40484.

The stamping plate BP-X44 is called Floral stamping plate; it has six big patterns that are perfect for many floral eye-catching nail art stamping manicures :-)

This one that I used today is my favourite, but I'm sure that I will use all of them, they are really beautiful! :-)

The stamping plate works perfectly, I didn't have any problem, it's engraved deeply enough to get perfect patterns and transfer them on your nails, the patterns are really clear and sharp! :-) I strongly recommend this stamping plate and all the BP-X stamping plate series! :-)

Born Pretty UV Drift Sand Gel n° 14

Today I present you one of BP UV gel polishes from Drift Sand Gel series that was kindly sent from Born Pretty Store for this review. It's n° 14 and you can find it on their website with this name: 5g BORN PRETTY Drift Sand Soak Off Gel Glitter Powder for UV LED Manicure Nail Art Gel Polish, item ID: 39906, n°14, dark blue.

I like "sand effect" polishes, so when I saw this UV gel sand effect polishes I wanted to try them too because I thought I could like them... and I was right, I like them very much! :-)

There is approximately 5 gr. of gel in the plastic box. Drift Sand Series has 15 different shades of sand effect UV gel polishes, dark blue was my first choice, but I think that I will have to get some other shades too! :-)

Born Pretty Store offers the possibility to buy also their glitter powder that can be used together with drift sand gel, and on the link of drift sand gel you can see the photos of various shades of gel without and with glitter powder. I used it without glitter powder, in it's "original version", but I like also how it looks with glitter powder, it has a kind of "festive" look! I guess I will use it with glitter particulary during Christmas days and Christmas holidays for my nail art creations :-)

I didn't have problems working with this UV drift sand gel, it's a little bit thicker than normal BP UV gel polishes but the application was smooth.
It has a very good coverage and one with a little bit more attention during application only one layer could be enough, but I prefer two thin layers, so what you see is two coats of UV Drift Sand Gel n° 14. As base UV gel polish I used BP UV gel base coat polish. Every layer of UV gel polish and UV base coat is cured 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp.

Of course, I like to wear my manicures "enriched" with some nail art, so in my next post I will show you a little "extra" - a nice stamping that I added to this beautiful dark blue UV drift sand gel :-) And you will also see the glossy version of it, because I covered it with UV gel top coat.. So, stay tuned..!

Here it is, BP UV Drift Sand Gel n° 14, I hope you like it as much as I do! :-)
