Simple Saturday | Starry Stamping with Born Pretty Store Plates

Posted on by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Saturday! It’s been a while since I posted under the Simple Saturday category! Today I have a quick manicure using a stamping plate from Born Pretty Store. As I mentioned in THIS blog post, I am still experimenting with stamping. I decided to practice using THIS stamping plate. It includes some gorgeous stars, so I went with a nighttime themed look.

Starry Stamping | Adventures in PolishlandI began with a navy creme base of LVX Azzurrum (full review HERE) and let that dry completely. Then I grabbed a gold metallic polish for the stars because I’ve heard metallic formulas are good for stamping. I used NYC New York Color in Crown Gold (full review HERE), but any gold will do. The stars did get a bit smudged in the stamping process, but I’m definitely getting the hang of it. I like how it turned out!

iPhone Case Nail Art featuring Pomegranate Nail Lacquer & Cellairis

Posted on by Adventures in Polishland

Happy Wednesday! Today I have a fun nail art post featuring polish from the brand Pomegranate Nail Lacquer. They recently teamed up with the cell phone case company Cellairis to pair a coordinating polish with select iPhone cases. Along with some other nail bloggers, I’m sharing a nail art look inspired by one of the Cellairis iPhone cases. Let me show you what I created!

First up is a shot of the coordinating nail polish and iPhone case! On the left is Pomegranate Nail Lacquer in the shade The Queen’s Jewels, a glitter top coat filled with silver, red, green, and blue glitters. On the right is the Cellairis iPhone 5 case in the style Debaris Picky Dot. As you can see, the glitters match up nicely with the rhinestones on the case already!

For my complete nail art look, I wanted to do a bit more than just add the glitter to a base. I began with a plain black nail polish to act like the color of my iPhone, and like the black rhinestones on the case. Then, I created a ruffian design by applying Essie Butler Please to the nail, leaving a small amount of black polish showing near the cuticle. My favorite color rhinestone in the case was the dark blue, and since the glitter polish didn’t have a dark blue, I decided that would be a great base color. Then, I added three coats of The Queen’s Jewels to the blue part of my nails to create the rhinestone look! I’m loving the result!

All in all, my nails are just as sparkly as the iPhone case! Plus, it was super easy to create this fancy look! Since the Debaris Picky Dot design is abstract, any color combination with the glitter will make for a fun, complimentary manicure. I can’t wait to use the glitter over many other colors of polish and still match my case! You can purchase Pomegranate Nail Lacquer online HERE for $8.50 per bottle, and Cellairs phone cases HERE.
