At the end of this post, I have to show you a little "extra"...!

These are the photos of the same manicure, 18 days later! :-)

I've never had the opportunity to wear the same manicure for such a long time, for me wearing the same manicure almost 3 weeks is really a looooong time :-)

I have been away on vacations for two weeks, I knew I wouldn't have the possibility to change my manicure during the vacations, so I chose this UV gel manicure hoping that it would last...

And yes, it lasted and it "survived" on my nails splendidly! :-)

Well, you can clearly see the growth of my nails, but the manicure looks very, very good, almost like when I created it and made first photos of it! :-)

So, yes, I would definitely recommend Born Pretty Store UV gel base coat, UV gel top coat and generally all UV gel polishes!

They really work for me! :-)

Beauty BigBang Purple holographic chameleon powder

Today I'm showing you one of Beauty Bigbang products that was kindly sent me for this review :-) It is the purple holographic chameleon powder that you can find on Beauty Bigbang website with this name: 0.2g/Box Peacock Holographic Powder Laser Chameleon Nail Powder Chrome Pigment, SKU: J2952-8A.

This set consists of one box of holographic chameleon powder and two small eye-shadow brushes. The holographic chameleon powder capacity is 0.2 g, but you need a very small quantity of this powder to obtain this beautiful effect on your nails, so the quantity is not a problem at all :-)

There are 12 various shades of holographic chameleon powder, my first choice was this gorgeous purple, but I like also the others, I'd surely like to have all of them! :-)

This is the procedure to follow if you'd like create a beautiful holographic chameleon powder UV gel manicure:

1. clean the surface of your nails, apply one layer of UV gel base coat polish, cure it 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp
2. apply one or two thin layers of black UV gel polish, cure each layer 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp
3. apply one layer of UV gel top coat polish, cure it 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp
4. using the eye-shadow brush apply a small amount of holographic chameleon powder on your nails until you cover entire nail and buff it on the nail until you get the desired effect
5. seal your manicure with one layer of UV gel top coat polish, cure 2 minutes in UV lamp

I didn't have any problem during the application, this powder is really easy to use and it's the perfect solution when you want to make a spectacular eye-catching manicure that will leave you breathless! :-)

I strongly recommend this purple holographic chameleon powder, it is really a great product! :-)

Here is my purple holographic chameleon powder manicure, I hope you like it as much as I do! :-)
