Nail Mail - I ❤NP

I finally jumped on the bandwagon and bought some polish from I❤NP.  Can I just say I love their packaging from the shipping box, the cute tissue paper and little boxes the polish come in.
I purchased two bottles from their last re-stock.  
Bottle Service($10) is a holographic and Sweet Serenade($12.50) is a multi chrome
Bottle Service in natural light is a light champagne color.  I wish it stayed a champagne color, I really don't need another silver holo.

In somewhat sunshine it looks more silver and the holo is more noticeable.
Application was nice.  A little streaky on the first layer but by the second I had a nice even coverage.
Sweet Serenade is a gorgeous polish that did not want to be captured in a photo.  Depending on how the light hits it, it shifts from blue to purple to teal.
The application was great, no streaks or bald spots.   The brush on this was a little wonky but nothing a little trim couldn't fix.

Thanks for stopping by!

Nail Mail and small haul 7/21

Nothing like getting some nail mail.  Sylvia from Mundo de Unas was making a trip to the states, so I went ahead and ordered some more stamping polish from her.  

I went ahead and ordered the cream, pink, orange, and swatched the teal that I received awhile back.   I paid $3 a piece for them.  They all work great, here they are stamped over Orly's Liquid Vinyl.  


They're thick but not gooey, a little goes a long way.  They do have a strong scent to them, that's the only negative.


Now for the haul part, I bought clearance polish from Ulta, Rite Aid, and Big Lots.

At Ulta I found Frida for $2.99, at Rite Aid, I got L'oreal Macaroon Me Madly also for $2.99, and at Big Lots,  I got Sinful colors in Nova, Revlon Calla Lily for $1 each,  nail strips for $1.50 and an elf brush for clean up for .95.

Thanks for stopping by!

Little Nail Mail

Yesterday I received a small box that contained 5 Betina Nail Plates.  Sorry for the blurry image.  I like that these plates don't have the film cover that is always so hard to remove.
 This was part of a group buy from one of the Facebook groups that I follow.   I love participating in these, the price is usually discounted as well as saving on shipping from the seller.

Plate B-02 was the only plate that gave my trouble, the images just wouldn't pick up.  I tried 3 different stamper and finally the Konad worked the best.
The last two image are re-do's

 These are so cute, look at the turtle and the dog.
 The details are definitely cleaner on this plate.
 These are the perfect size for my nails.

Nail Mail!!

Love going to the mailbox and finding packages in there.  Today I received two packages one was an Etsy purchase from Vivid Laquer(here) and the second was from JJP Beauty Supply.

Let's start off with the small one.  I was surprised at how thick the envelope was, what with it being one plate.  So I was pleasantly surprised to find the plate secured in a small jewelry box, no bubble wrap for them.   I wanted this plate to be able to have an, OPI Spotted look, but the fingerprint image is calling my name.  The plate retails for $8.
Plate VL009
The bigger envelope came from JJPBeautysupply.com(here), I was surprised to see that they choose to mail five polishes in a cardboard envelope.  I'm happy to say they all arrived intact, each polish was in a bubble envelope.

 I purchased three Zoya's and two OPI's from the latest collections.
I wanted some more of the OPI Bond Girls Collection, so I added Vesper a beautiful dark purple, and Jinx a gorgeous coral color.

I purchased Rocky from the Stunning Collection, another blue to add to my collection a lovely creme formula.  From the Irresistible Collection, Tinsley a sheer pink/gold . And my favorite is Liberty which is from the Summer Pixie Collection 2013.

 They were less expensive at $6.75 and $7.50 for the pixies plus the code ebayjjp for free shipping. 

 

 Here is a close up of the textured polish.



 A little extra, my sister was nice enough to have stopped by her Sephora inside a JCP and bought me Poke, a pretty violet.  She went when they were on sale, she paid $7 for it!!


Well that's all for today thanks for looking!!
