Stamping plate Blueberry 03 - Snowflakes on purple holo

Today I would like to present to you a new stamping plate that I got few days ago from Marta, tallented nail artist from Poland; her blog is Red Rouge and there you can find many interesting manicures, especially beautiful stamping manicures :-)

Marta is also the owner of etsy shop Blueberrystorepl and she sent me her stamping plate Blueberry 03 for my honest review :-)

I love this stamping plate :-) I like Christmas and winter patterns and I like very much all the patterns on Blueberry 03! My first choice were snowflakes because I like to see them on my nails, drawn or stamped, and these stamped snowflakes look really beautiful! 

I'm sure that I will use all the patterns on this plate, they are all very eye-catching! :-)

Stamping plate Blueberry 03 is a bit bigger than standard round stamping plates, it is 7 cm of diameter and the dimensions of patterns are 2,5 x 2 cm.

The other two stamping plates, Blueberry 01 and Blueberry 02 are standard plates, their diameter is 5,5 cm and the dimensions of patterns are 2,2 x 1,5 cm.

As I am lucky to have all three beautiful Blueberry plates, I made some photos to show you the difference of their dimensions :-)

I didn't have any problem with this stamping plate, it's engraved deeply enough to get perfect patterns and transfer them on your nails, the patterns are really clear and sharp which is the most important thing when it comes to stamping! :-)

I can highly recommend the stamping plate Blueberry 03, it has very reasonable price, it's a good quality stamping plate and it's really beautiful..!

Dear Marta, thank you for sending me this beauty, I'm happy to have all the Blueberry stamping plates and I hope that your Blueberry collection will continue growing, with interesting and beautiful patterns like these are! :-)

Born Pretty Store review: Stamping plate BP-L006

Today I'm showing you one of the first Born Pretty Store stamping plates that I finaly decided to order, but better late than never! :-)
It's the stamping plate BPL-006 and you can find it on Born Pretty Store website with this name: Selected Classic Patterns Nail Art Stamp Template Image Plate BORN PRETTY BP-L006 12.5 x 6.5cm, item ID: 17924.

The stamping plate BPL-006 is a stamping plate with really nice mix of classic stamping patterns, you have everything on one plate: dots, stripes, chevron, triangles, stars, plaid... all of these patterns are very useful for creating very eye-catching nail art stamping manicures :-)

The stamping plate works perfectly, just like the other BPL series stamping plates that I have, 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! :-)

Born Pretty Store BPL stamping plates are really very good choice, I already have many of them and I highly recommend all of them! And you are welcome to use my coupon code CYL91 to get 10% off on all your Born Pretty Store orders :-)

Born Pretty Store review: Thermal polishes VCND Bluesky n° 005 and n° 006

These two thermal polishes were kindly offered to me from Born Pretty Store for this review. 

You can find them on their website with these names:
VCND Bluesky n° 005 (purple): 1 Bottle 7.5ml Thermal Nail Polish Temperature Color Changing Nail Polish #5, item ID: 22745
VCND Bluesky n° 006 (pink): 1 Bottle 7.5ml Thermal Nail Polish Temperature Color Changing Nail Polish #6, item ID: 22746

I tried to show their change of colour on one of my plastic nail wheels, I used my hair-drier to warm the nail wheel and then made some photos while it was cooling down:

VCND Bluesky thermal polishes come in a 7,5 ml bottle and there are 12 different colours available; some of them also have bigger or smaller glitter particles, so surely you can find the one that suits your taste! :-) 

I'm sorry that my nails are not so long, so I can't get the typical "gradient" effect that you usually get using thermal nail polishes. 
The other problem is my personal problem with micro-circulation, so my fingers are (almost) always cold and these thermal nail polishes don't have many possibilities to warm up much :-) So, I had to experiment a little bit and for these swatches I used the hair-drier to get the change of colour :-) 

I didn't have any problem with the application of these thermal polishes, it went very smooth and easy. I like also the brush that is medium size, not too thin, not too large, I find it very comfortable to work with :-) 
I like both of these VCND Bluesky thermal polishes and I can strongly recommend them :-)
You are also welcome to use my coupon code CYL91, to get the 10% off on all your Born Pretty Store orders! :-)

VCND Bluesky #5 has tiny glitter particles in it and they make it look more interesting. It changes the colour from dark purple when cold to light purple when hot. 

The photographs are made outside in the sun, and you can see two layers of nail polish, without top coat.

VCND Bluesky # 6 has glitter particles that are a little bit bigger, but they make it look really special :-) It changes colour from pink when cold to white when hot.

The photographs are made outside in the sun, and you can see two layers of nail polish, without top coat.

I hope that you liked my VCND Bluesky thermal polishes review and that among these beautiful shades you will find the one close to your heart! :-)
