This is another manicure I did a loong time ago. Konad plate used is M25. Base colour is Nicole by OPI in You're A Star. Butterfly stamps are various Konad Special Polish colours and Sally Hansen Insta Dri Nail Polish (great for Konad Stamping) ❤

Here's an old stamping manicure I did using Konad plate S5 for the gun and M25 for the rose.  China Glaze OMG is the base colour with the Konad Special Polishes in Black, Red and Green ❤

I've been reading a lot about Layla Holographic Nail Polish and that it is even more holographic than this baby!

Nars lipglosses have great pigmentation but also have a very plasticky scent. The texture is slightly sticky with good lasting power.

These are the marker-style stains and have great staying power. I can't wait to try the new kissable version ❤

Rouge Dior lipsticks have great staying power and feel lightweight on :)
Note: Purple Sultan Satin, Granville Pink & Plum Pot have been discontinued but Daisy Plum and Plum Pot are very similar/dupey.

These lipglosses smell sweet and fruity and stain the lips. I find Petal Pink a little too light/frosty for my skintone though (NC 15).
